Fate POV

It isn't long until we make it back to our in and we enter still smiling at the last few moments we had just shared.

Fate: "Ello Lloyd." I greet him with nod.

Ambrosia: "Hi Lloyd." She says as brightly as she can.

Lloyd: "Hey you two, is there a party going on in the guild or something? I can hear them from here." He laughs.

Fate: "Something like that." I chuckle.

Ambrosia: "It was a lot of fun." She says tiredly.

Lloyd: "I can tell." He chuckles as he glances a tired looking Ambrosia. "Have a good night you two, and maybe go easy on the tired girl tonight." He whispers to me.

Ambrosia has heightened senses as a vampire and snaps awake at the comment.

Ambrosia: "W-We're sharing a r-room, right." She mumbles with red tinted cheeks.

I throw a grin at Lloyd and he gives me a thumbs up. Ambrosia starts pushing me as Risu bonks my head angrily over and over again.

Lloyd: "Your room is up the stairs and the third one to the left!" He calls to us.

Fate: "Thanks Lloyd!" I call back.

When we reach the room Ambrosia finally stops pushing me and looks at the ground and refusing to look up.

Fate: "Is something bothering you?" I ask concerned while unlocking our room.

She wasn't looking down in embarrassment, but worry about something.

Ambrosia: "It's great that you don't snore but...I get nightmares sometimes and I'm afraid I might wake you up." She says frowning.

As the door opens I gesture her inside.

Fate: "Maybe I can help you with that." I smile.

She looks up to me with some hope in her eyes.

Ambrosia: "I wouldn't be surprised if you manage something like that." She giggles softly, then she walks in first.

I close the door behind us and find that there is only one large sized bed, I could have sworn there was two when I use •All Seeing Eyes• to check our room.

Fate: "I could sleep on the floor if you'd like." I offer since I could tell she was uncomfortable.

Ambrosia: "N-No, it's fine. You can take the bed, I'd hate to kick you off and I already owe you a lot." She says bashfully.

Fate: "That wouldn't sit very well with me, I insist that you take the bed." She's about to argue but I speak up again. "If you listen then it'll be a start towards your payment back to me."

And I had her. She can't think of a rebuttals for a few moments and a feeling of triumph starts to well inside me. Then Ambrosia makes a bold move.

Ambrosia: "T-Then we'll share the bed." She says as steadily as she can.

I see her eyes spinning as her ears begin to produce steam. As a reward for her bravery and courage I laugh softly and say.

Fate: "Alright, that's a fine compromise."

Risu: "You better not do anything to the girl, you only met her today." She says to me still sitting on my shoulders.

Fate: "Only after the third date." I chuckle.

Ambrosia: "E-Excuse me?!" She exclaims with red cheeks.

Fate: "Oh, I was talking about us." I tease just rolling with it.
