" 'An-Darling?" Midori whispered under the cover of night. "Jim? Are you awake?"
"I am now," he mumbled, sitting up and rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.
"I can't sleep."
"What's wrong?"
"My bra's uncomfortable, and I left my favorite shirt for sleeping in back in my world."
"So wear something else."
"The other thing I have might make me... glow."
"Glow?" he inquired dubiously, raising an eyebrow.
"Didn't you know? Girls don't sweat. We glow."
He sweatdropped. "Can't you wear anything else?"
"Well, I can, but it's kinda... showy."
"Eh? What do you mean, 'showy?' "
He clapped a hand over his eyes as he heard the rustling sound of clothes.
"This's what I mean," she said as she flicked on the lightswitch.
She was wearing a button-down shirt that was completely open except for one button, and a pair of green girls' boxers.
She turned the lights off, and he could hear her climbing back into bed. Something wasn't right. He felt something warm and soft up against his side.
"N... Nani? What are you doing in MY bed?" he yelled, his nose almost bleeding.
"My bed's hard, and it hurts my back," she calmly explained.
"Then I'll sleep over there, and you sleep here. All alone."
"No way! I don't want you to suffer over there!"
Jim sighed in exasperation and gave in. Midori cuddled up to him. She's kinda sweet... he thought to himself. ...In that screwed up way of hers.

The fangirl yawned and stretched as she walked into the double room the adults had shared. She blinked upon seeing Jim, sitting at the table, his head right next to his cereal bowl. What she could see of his face was bright red.
"Jim? What's wrong?"
"Huh? NOTHING! Absolutely nothing!" he exclaimed nervously, blushing even further.
"What happened between you two last night?" Aisha inquired.
"Nothing."
"Then why's Jimmy-chan so upset?" Gene teased.
"Don't expect me to know. I can't read minds."
"If nothing interesting happened, then what did happen?" the two people who annoyed Jim most (next to Midori-chan) wondered.
"My bed was uncomfortable, so I slept in his."
Gene, Aisha, and even Suzuka's eyes widened, and they almost spit out their breakfast while choking on it.
"Oh, Jim! Your first girlfriend and you've already gotten to third base!" Gene applauded, crying.
"IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!" the two twelve year olds screamed.
"You should believe them," Suzuka added. "I didn't hear any noises like the ones when Gene brings home a date."
The pilot of the Outlaw Star blushed, laughed nervously, and rubbed the back of his neck.

Jim sighed as he headed towards the door to the room he had been forced to share with Midori. He felt he had been embarrassed enough for one day. Sulking in bed would do him some good. Absentmindedly, he opened the door.
"M... Midori-chan!" he exclaimed as something warm and wet trickled down, past his lips, and onto his chin.
"Jim-kun! You shouldn't walk in on me like this! We just met, and we aren't that far into our relationship yet! Honestly, what kind of girl do you take me for?"
He fell backwards, onto the carpeting, unconscious. A small stream of blood flew out of his nose.

Jim felt something soft and warm against the back of his head.
"Jim! Wake up! Speak to me!" a voice he recognized as Midori's pleaded trough what sounded like tears.
"Midori-chan? Is that you?" he said weakly, opening his eyes.
"Jim! You're alive!" she exclaimed, hugging him into her... bosom.
"Ugh... You're squeezing too hard," he said, somewhat muffled.
"Oh, gomen," she giggled, letting him go.
He sat up, rubbing his head. "What happened?
"You kinda... walked in on me changing."
"Sorry! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to!"
"It's OK! I forgive ya!" she exclaimed, clapping him hard on his back, sending him flying into a wall.
"WAAAHHH!!!!!"
"Oh! Sorry!"
"That's fine. I'm fine. We're all fine," he said dazedly.
