Eugen: I leave you alone for a few minutes-

Eugen: I leave you alone for a few minutes-

Me: It's not-

Agir: I'll leave you two alone. See you later darling.

As Agir says this, she brushes her fingers against my cheek before standing up and leaving the room. Certain I'm redder than a tomato, I duck under the sheets in embarrassment but it isn't long before Eugen is by my side. When the room falls silent, however, I peek out from under the sheets to find her leaning over me.

Eugen: She didn't hurt you, did she?

I'm surprised by the question. I'm not sure what I expected but I certainly never expected that. Still,I should probably respond or she may get the wrong idea.

Me: N-no.

Eugen: Are you sure?

She doesn't seem convinced and rightly so. I did stammer after all but I can't help but be nervous when our faces are this close. To make matters worst, she's staring intensely into my eyes and she's now practically straddling me. Even though the sheets still separate us...

Me: I'm sure!

I can't tell who's more surprised by the fact that I shouted the answer, her or me. My heart's racing. I can hardly think. When did the room get this hot? Ugh. I need some fresh air before something that I can't take back happens.

Me: C-can we go somewhere?

She sits up but doesn't get off me. Still, with the extra space now between our faces, I finally manage to relax enough to slow my breathing which in turn slowly but surely lowers my heart rate. 

Eugen: Where would you like to go?

Me: You choose...

Eugen: Hmm...can you walk?

Me: I-

Eugen: Nevermind.

Before I can even respond she's off the bed and lifting me, sheet and all, up before heading for the door. 

Me: What-

Eugen: Shh. Just leave everything to me.

Once we're through the door, she turns and begins heading down the corridor. As we travel, girls move to the side to allow us to pass by but I can't help the feeling that they're whispering about me. Feeling even more embarrassed, I try my best to hide my face, inking myself further and further into Eugen's arms but it's not long before I realise that by doing so, my face is now pressed up against her breasts. She notices too, and her heartbeat audibly speeds up but unlike me, she doesn't show any external signs of being affected. 

Eugen: Z21, get the door for me.

Z21: Uh...ok.

Looking up, I'm soon met with the outdoors. Much to my surprise, however, rather than finding rubble and signs of the battle all around us, I find things normal, as though it was all a dream.

Me: What's going on?

Eugen: Rest now. We can talk later.

I'm not sure what she means by that but I do remain silent as she walks across the courtyard, drawing the attention of everyone in the process. Feeling embarrassed oncemore, I burry my face back into her bust and this time, it does catch her off guard as her grip loosens on me before she reinforces her hold.

Eugen: You're really something, you know that?

What have I done?

Eugen: Is anyone in there?

????: No, we're the last and we're leaving.

Eugen: Perfect. Can you get the door for me?

????: Sure.

What are they talking about?

????: I'll set it to "occupied" for you as well.

Eugen: Thanks.

Occupied? Wait, where are we going?

Eugen: You can stop hiding now.

Blushing, I look up to find that we're now in what appears to be a public bath. It's not something I'd expect to find outside of my region but then again, I don't really know where we are. For all I know, this could be a base deep inside my nation's (she's referring to modern-day China here) territory. Then again, it could also be in the Far West as I suspect it is.

Me: Why are we-

Eugen: Why to get you cleaned up, of course.
