CHAPTER 2
Waking up the next morning was like floating upon a cloud.
Before I opened my eyes I could feel warmth radiating from someone clinging to my sides.
Opening my eyes I awoke to the view of Rossweisse snuggling up my side as she slept.
With a smile that stretched from ear to ear on my face I gently began stroking her hair as she gently woke from her dream.
"H-huh? W-what?" sounding confused as to what she was doing first thing in the morning.
"Good Morning Rossweisse, Did you sleep well?"
As I said that I bent down and placed my lips on her forehead, to which she sprang right up, her body at a right angle.
"W-what are you doing so early in the morning!" almost shouting at the top of her lungs
'Damn, Rossweisse looks so cute when she's embarrassed' I thought as I saw her cheeks dye a stunning shade of red.
"What do you mean? Am I not allowed to kiss my girlfriend good morning?" I said with a wide smile across my face with my cheeks cherry red.
"G-g-girlfriend!" Rossweisse was almost hyperventilating at this point, so, using the perfect calming method placed my lips upon hers to which she flopped back on the bed, almost as if she fainted.
Looking at her embarrassed face really got my heart racing and before I knew it I was snuggling up with her.
"S-so last night really wasn't a dream?" she asked.
"How adorable that you dream about me!" On this comment I saw her ears turn bright red through her long, straight silver hair.
Turning to face me she looked longingly into my eyes "Are you sure that you want to go out with me? Of all the girls in the Gremory group why did you pick me over Rias or Akeno?"
Returning her loving stare, I placed my hand upon her soft, warm cheek and gently pinched her. "OwOwOwOw."
Lovingly I placed a kiss upon her cheek to show the sincerity behind my words. "Rossweisse, I chose you because I love you. I wouldn't choose who I want to spend the rest of my life with based on who has the biggest bust. Okay?"
bringing our faces closer together we shared a kiss to show that she understood my feelings and that meant the world to me.
"Y-you can call me Rose if you want, I know that my name is quite the mouthful." Rossweisse said embarrassingly.
"Ok, Rose" I complied whilst elongating the pronunciation of Rose so as to blow into her ear, causing a face of pleasure and excitement to sweep across her face.
"I think it's about time that we got up"
Checking the time on the alarm clock resting upon Rossweisse's bedside table it showed that the current time was 11:00am.
Luckily today was a holiday so they were able to sleep in as much as possible.
"Phew, I'm glad it's not past 12:00, otherwise I would be getting an earful from mother right about now." Laughing as I said that I got up and looked around the room.
Rossweisse was very mindful of my gaze as I looked from one corner to the next.
"I-it's rude to look around in a girl's room so much" She said with a slightly embarrassed yet violent tone.
As I looked around I could feel Rossweisse's intense glare on my back, as though I was being stabbed by a thousand knives.
"I-I'm sorry for staring. It's just that I never realised that you like this kind of stuff" I said as I picked up a stuffed animal.
Rossweisse quickly pounced at me, stealing the stuffed animal from my grasp and swept the room of any remaining toys that she could find before quickly stuffing them into her cupboard and then proceeded to lock it.
Out of breath from panicking, Rossweisse looked at me and said "W-what stuffed animals?"
feeling knives approaching from her azure eyes I decided to concede and play it off as nothing. "I don't know?"
Knowing that I needed to get out of her room as possible I sa-
*grumble*
Looking embarrassingly from my stomach to Rossweisse I felt my cheeks lighting up. "Should we go downstairs and grab something to eat?"
suggesting that was a win-win situation for me as I found an escape route and I was able to satisfy my hunger.
"Sounds like a good idea" Rossweisse said with a beautiful smile upon her face.
'I'm glad that I was the one that was able to bring that smile upon her face.' I thought as I watched her smiling face as she left the room ahead of me.
When we arrived on the ground floor the members of the Hyoudou residence each said their good mornings to each other.
Rias, Akeno, Asia and my Mother were all in the kitchen preparing breakfast whilst Koneko was watching the morning cartoons and Irina and Xenovia were discussing something to do with procreation.
I made sure to steer clear of that conversation.
Sitting at the table Rossweisse quietly whispered to me "do you think that we should announce to the household that we're in a relationship now?"
After finishing my mouthful of omelette I looked at her and saw that she wore a worried expression. "That sounds like a good idea!" I whispered back.
As everyone in the kitchen had already finished making breakfast and everyone was sitting at the table enjoying their meal I decided this would be the best time to announce that we were going out.
Making sure to not interrupt anyone's conversation, I coughed so as to grab everyone's attention.
"Okay um... I have an announcement to make"
As I was about to get to the main topic I was interrupted by Irina. "Does it have something to do with why Rossweisse made sure to sit next to you?"
Looking at Irina with a glint in my eye "Yes, well, Rossweisse and I, Well... she is now my girlfriend. It happened last night and we decided to start dating."
Looking around at the reactions of some of the members of the household, Koneko was uninterested, shown by were unwavering stare at her games console.
Xenovia's reaction was to be expected. "Just because you guys are going out doesn't mean we can't have babies, right?"
Stating it like a fact I decided to ignore her comment and next to react to the news was Asia.
Standing up she came round the table to where I was and hugged me from behind. "Issei is this your final decision? All I want is for you to be happy; if you have chosen to be with Rossweisse then I can only wish you the best."
Surprisingly Asia had reacted in the best way possible and had decided to stop her advances on me so as to show that she has accepted me and Rossweisse as a couple.
Irina didn't show a particularly significant reaction and congratulated and wished us the best.
The final couple to react were Akeno and Rias.
Looking at them from across the table I could see In Rias' eye that this wasn't the best of news for her. However, just like Asia she came over and hugged me, this time from the front and she kissed me on the cheek.
"Even though you belong to me you decide to start dating another woman, what am I going to do with you? Even if you are dating Rossweisse you need to remember who your master is and who you must protect, okay?"
Looking unbelievably cute as she said that I held back the urge to hug her like I normally would, I'm a changed man now and have to act considerately in front of my girlfriend.
Akeno suddenly appeared beside Rias and clung to my arm with her chest squishing against my arm, the urge to touch them was unimaginable but somehow I managed to endure.
During these struggling times for me I could sense Rossweisse's stare focusing on me and the girls.
"Now that you're in a relationship does this mean that I can be your mistress? Ufufu..." she said seductively.
"Haha very funny" I said, playing her comment off as a joke, which I'm sure I'd regret later.
After the announcement was made my Mom came and welcomed Rossweisse to the family which both of us found painfully embarrassing.
My Dad then asked when their grandchildren would be here to which he received a deserved, quick hit from my mother.
Also, after being bombarded with questions about the events that occurred last night Rossweisse and I were exhausted by 3:00.
Resigning to my room after seeing Rossweisse off to her room I laid on my bed and decided to rest my eyes for a bit and slowly drifted to sleep...
When I woke up I found two girls next to me. One with crimson hair and the other with ebony.
As I sat up and pulled the covers away I then noticed that both were wearing nothing but sexy lingerie... which I picked out for them.
I knew that going into that heavenly store on all those dates with the girls would eventually have its benefits.
Lying to my left was Rias, With a full set of white lingerie on, panties, bra, garter belt and even stockings.
On the other side I had Akeno with full black lingerie. Each perfectly complementing their hair colour and attributes.
As I was having wild delusions the pair began to awake from their slumber and noticed that I was also up.
"Haaaaah... Good morning Issei" Yawned Rias as Akeno simply starting clinging to me.
"G-girls why are you in here! I have a girlfriend now..."
Rias and Akeno shared a glance before pushing me back down onto the bed.
"Don't worry Issei we're not trying to seduce. Me and Akeno just wanted one more snuggle before we let Rossweisse take you from us."
"We also wanted to show you how much you'll be missing when we're gone."
I sighed "I'm certainly going to miss waking up with two beautiful girls in nothing but their underwear on each arm."
Laughing Akeno kissed me on the cheek and licked the tip of my ear causing my body to jolt into action.
Now I was wide awake.
"Akeno, you can't do that anymore now that you have me..." Rias said this with a blusing face and shy voice.
hearing this stunning declaration I sprang up with a stare that could kill.
Rias saw this reaction and laughed. "We didn't want to ruin you and Rossweisse's big announcement but me and Akeno are in a sorta similar situation that you are."
Rias must have wanted to announce their situation at the same time as us.
'W-well, I'm sorry for stealing your thunder this morning"
Still trying to take in all this new info I subconsciously apologised.
with my jaw wide open almost touching the floor Akeno leans over and kisses Rias right in front of me. Who would've thought these two would be involved in that kind of relationship.
"Why did you guys decide to Um, y'know..."
after hearing my embarrassed question both Akeno and Rias giggled away.
"It happened a couple of weeks ago actually, I just realised that Akeno is my best friend, my queen and someone who I want to spend the rest of my life with. If we're lovers then the distance between us will become even smaller. Akeno is the most important person to me and I realized that when we were fighting against Qlippoth at the Rating Game School. Thinking that any of could have lost our lives at any moment I realized that I couldn't wait any longer.
After hearing Rias' words full of emotion and eyes brimming with tears Akeno couldn't help but laugh.
'Possibly the worst time for your sadistic side to come into play'
Thinking about this Akeno said "For me, I realised that Rias is the one that saved my life and that I would want to repay that in any way that I could. Without me being by her side I would be dead already. Over the years of her helping me come to terms with who I am I realised with out her ever helping me I would be dead right now having been captured by the Himejima clan."
After saying this they embraced each other and began to get changed.
Whilst having fantastic delusions about what those two would be getting up to I realised Akeno was calling me over. Seems like she had more to say.
Akeno then leaned in and whispered "Also, have you seen her face when she cries... Ufufu" How I knew that she would say something like that.
Checking the time on my clock I noticed that It was 5:00. After taking a two hour long nap I was feeling revitalised.
Heading downstairs I went to check on Rossweisse as I hadn't heard anything from her since we parted ways at her floor.
Knocking on her door I received no response so waited an appropriate amount of time before entering unannounced.
From the looks of it Rossweisse had flung herself on her bed and fallen asleep, I wonder who that sounds similar to?
Climbing into bed next to her I decided that I would snuggle with her for a bit before waking her up.
Naps are good and all but if you sleep too late then you'll never have a good night's rest.
I slowly wrapped my arms around her waist and carefully ensnared our legs together. Reacting to me enveloping her she let out a moan of comfort.
We laid there for about ten minutes before Rossweisse woke up and realised what I was doing.
"W-what are you doing in here?" Leaning over I kissed her on the lips.
"Is there something wrong with me sleeping in the same bed with my girlfriend?"
Seeing my girlfriend's blushing face brought a strange sense of accomplishment to me and made me want to tease her even more.
Separating our entangled legs I got up and looked at her desk again seeing the letter she received from Asgard.
"Hey Rossweisse, do you ever have the urge to return to Asgard, like for a visit or anything?"
hearing me ask about Asgard was clearly surprising for her. "Actually, I needed to talk to you about something..."
Rossweisse was clearly in discomfort and as her boyfriend I want to solve whatever problem she is having.
"Ok, I would be happy talking to you about anything" I said as I lightly embraced her showing my sincerity.
Lightly blushing Rossweisse said "T-thank you."
"Well, my grandmother invited you and me to her house in Asgard because she said that there will be ways that you'll be able to speed up the development of your Sacred Gear. Also she said that she wanted to teach you and some of the other members of the group some Norse defensive magic so that we're more prepared when we next fight Qlippoth."
Hearing her talk about my Sacred Gear certainly got my interest.
"Besides going to Asgard how do we even get there?" I asked as I hadn't heard of a method or even know where Asgard was.
"Traditionally the world tree Yggdrasil was located in the Norse countries but after centuries of the animals around it gnawing away at the bark, the tree began to decay at an increasing speed so the higher ups came up with an artificial Yggdrasil, a HUB to teleport to where all the realms are accessible.
It meant the gods were able to access the Yggdrasil HUB from anywhere within the nine realms."
Hearing that information from Rossweisse made me remember just how smart she really is.
Thinking about how such an amazing girl is my girlfriend made a wide smile sweep across my face.
After the long explanation from Rossweisse about this 'Yggdrasil HUB' I realised that there was one important thing that I forgot to ask.
"Rossweisse, how exactly do we access this Yggdrasil HUB?" Rossweisse took the enveloped letters from her desk and showed me the seal on the letter.
On it were two ravens and in the background was what looked like a large tree with many branches.
"This is?" I asked as Rossweisse pressed her finger against the seal and chanted a short spell of some sorts.
After doing this Rossweisse walked over to her cupboard door and gently clasped her hand around the knob of the door.
This caused the door to radiate a faint green light. Rossweisse then opened the door revealing what looked like a giant train station with many different tracks.
"The Yggdrasil HUB uses the devils technology of 'separate dimensions' and just like 'Heaven's Bedroom' is completely protected from any harm that may come to it.
This effect is applied as this Yggdrasil HUB is considered a holy ground for those in Asgard and is a central pillar throughout the nine realms.
Any species would be able to procreate with another without any danger coming to either of them."
Whilst saying this I noticed that Rossweisse had slightly turned away with a blushing face when talking about procreation. Walking up behind her I wrapped my arms around her curvaceous body and lightly kissed her on the cheek before walking out the door to go downstairs to get the other members of the Gremory group.
Rossweisse followed shortly later after closing the door to the Yggdrasil HUB.
Venturing into Asgard brings a lot potential development for the Gremory Group and they were planning to exploit to the maximum.
