V2 Chapter 7

Chapter 3 A toast to happiness

1 Cherry Festival

Sleeping under the sun makes you feel at ease and lets you feel relaxed from the bottom of your heart. Then, I noticed a smell that was different from the scent of the sun and grass. Suddenly, Shize-san's face came to mind.
Ah, this is Shize-san's smell. But why do I know this scent? ......Oh right, it must be from when he princess carried me when I was down with a cold. It was then that I caught a whiff of Shize-san's scent.

I opened my eyes slightly and white swaying object came into view.
Pata, pata.
It was a white coloured tail rhythmically tapping on the grass. There was also a black piece of clothing draped on my body. Shize-san must have been the one who covered me with his jacket.

Aiya, but I remember being in the embrace of Laclain's wings just now. I closed my eyes once again and turned my body around. This time, I felt something roll down from my neck. A really adorable 「fuwa」 could be heard. It's a Loto's voice. I wonder if it snuggled up to me during my sleep.

If I listened attentively, I could hear the sound of someone talking. Ah ah, I should probably get up. I still wanted to sleep some more, but I slowly rose from my slumber. When I opened my eyes, I was greeted with the sight of the white tail again. It's Ryuse-san's tail. Beside the tapping tail was a pair of amber eyes. And this pair of eyes belonged to a pure black lion......
In the next instant, our eyes met.

It seems I had fallen asleep, completely oblivious. How embarrassing. I got up in a hurry, causing the Lotos to tumble down my body. Ah, so sorry. The tumble might have caused them to see stars, as their head was going round and round.
(lilies: their eyes were (@_@) lol)

「Oh, you're awake, ojou. Did you sleep well? You didn't even wake when the Lotos climbed on top of you.」

Ryuse-san who was seated near me laughed.
Ah, how embarrassing.
When I looked up to the sky, it was starting to be stained red. It's already evening. Did I really sleep for that long? I looked around and saw that everyone was already awake, except for me. At a distance, the blue wolf Chise-san was together with Laclain, who was in a humanoid form, passionately discussing something. How surprising, to think that Chise-san would be so friendly to someone that he met for the first time. I wonder how the two of them got so close while I was asleep.

Sena-san was sitting on the side as well, but I can't see what he's doing as he had his back to me. When I looked at Shize-san, he was lying down with the forest kittens, the Ferris. The pure white Ferris were all snuggled up to Shize-san and napping with him. It's the first time I've seen the mischievous Ferris so well behaved. Even though they're little fellas that wouldn't stay still even when you held them.

「Ne~ ne~ Rhonya, I'm going hunting with Laclain, so please make dinner for me!」

Chise-san told me excitedly. So they were talking about hunting. Just as I was folding Shize-san's jacket, Sena-san spoke before I could reply.

「That's not happening. Seth has prepared dinner for us.」

I've heard this name before. I remember that it's the name of Sena-san's younger brother. When Sena-san turned around, I noticed that a Loto and another floofy creature was sitting on his lap. It was a fluffy fairy with maroon fur. It had curly and poofy fur that resembled that of a toy poodle. Fii looked at me with her big round eyes and tottered over with her stubby legs. Fii closed her eyes and raised her nose. I leaned in towards her as well and gently rubbed my nose against hers. This is how Fii says hello.

「Oh! Do that with me too ojou!」

I got a shock when Ryuse-san who was watching us from side suddenly said that.
