Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Void of the Heart. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own HI3D, miHoYO and a few others do.

(Earth, Oliver's home.)

Sirin felt… weird, she blinked and looked at Oliver's bed while Oliver stood next to her.

"You can take the bed, I'll take the couch… Nobody really sleeps here…" Oliver said, Sirin blinked and wanted to say nothing.

To her, part of her still saw Oliver as a servant, a person to serve her and nothing else.

The other part of her, though… Even her servants and soldiers deserved her care…They gave their lives for her and served her no matter what… And Oliver was being nice to her…

"We can share." Sirin said, she looked at Oliver who blinked, his Amethyst color eyes widened. He rubbed his bare arms while looking at his black t shirt and pj pants.

For the first time since they had spoken, she saw hints of a blush on his face for a second before he looked at the ceiling.

"No, it's fine, your… You're the guest." Oliver said, Sirin grabbed his arm, if she had any more strength in the grab, she'd have snapped his arm like a wishbone.

"This is your house and you are helping me… I cannot stand the thought of making you suffer while I am able to enjoy myself… Especially since you have offered to selflessly help me just for knowledge and have opened your doors to me…." Sirin said, the Goddess looked to the side, part of her hated opening her mouth…

But she couldn't take it back, Oliver looked to the side with a blush that mirrored hers.

"Don't think of this as… That, Human… I just don't feel right forcing you to sleep on your furniture in your own house… I was raised to be prim, proper and regal… This…. Just sleep…" Sirin said, looking away.

She could read minds, it wasn't that Oliver had any intentions, something that both made her blink in confusion based on her knowledge of Humans… And made her smile pleasantly for some reason.

It was that he didn't want to be rude the same way she didn't. Oliver slowly climbed into his bed, as if it was rude for him to do so.

Sirin removed her boots and gloves and dispelled her wings before slowly settling into the other side of the bed.

If there was awkwardness before, it had doubled by now as Oliver faced away from her.

"I could still go to the couch…" Oliver said, Sirin shivered and saw Oliver the same way.

She scooted closer and hugged Oliver, he sighed, either too tired or too resigned to care.

"Good night, Oliver." Sirin said, she heard Oliver mutter a good night before sleep claimed the Houkai and Human.

It was awkward… But for Sirin, it felt… Relaxing, she could sense it was similar with Oliver, considering his thoughts.

She allowed a brief smile on her face while sleep claimed her.

(The next morning.)

Sirin yawned and blinked before noticing that Oliver was out of the room.

She summoned her boots and gloves and then her wings while she walked out of the room, rubbing her back.

She found Oliver at the table… With pancakes with what looked like chocolate chips in them?

"Good morning." Oliver said, his voice was clipped, it was soft and short.

Great, she had managed to make things awkward by trying to be nice with someone too polite to refuse her offer, she would be kicking herself from that….

"Good morning, did you sleep well?" Sirin asked, Oliver nodded and set down the food.

"Yes, thank you for asking… Did you?" Oliver asked while he took a seat, Sirin took one as well.

"Yes… Thank you… Now, I believe we were discussing attacking the Zima Empire's fleet? I can handle their fleet, but your life would be endangered… We need a plan…" Sirin said as she cut a bite of the pancakes and her eyes went wide.

"Sirin?" Oliver asked before Sirin lifted the plate up and dumped everything into her mouth like it was meat before a shark.

Oliver blinked as he watched the girl who had acted refined and regal up till being flicked on the head devour the food he made.

She turned to his food with a look that was both amusing and made him terrified for the first time since they had met.

He pushed the pancakes to her; she'd probably smash the table apart to get to the food.

"I guess we're plan after your done…." Oliver said, if he was worried about anything, it was her ability to eat so much…

He watched the woman feast on the pancakes and chuckled before she glared at him, it was hard to not laugh because of the syrup from the pancakes on her face.

He laughed and it wouldn't be till later Sirin knew why.

Oliver had a mission to think about that they'd plan out tonight.

Author Notes

Phew, another chapter done! I want to point out that Sirin is based somewhat off both Kiana and Sirin… She's caring and kind, and brilliant and ruthless… But childish and lazy at times. I also want to point out Oliver and Sirin trying to sleep was meant to be funny, not romantic. Next chapter will be on Sunday and will show Oliver and Sirin attacking the Zima Empire's fleet. Until then, Lighting Wolf done!
