Aladdin roamed the city, taking advantage of the quiet nighttime to have time to himself. He threw his turban into the air, flying over to a castle that stood out from the rest of the buildings in the city. The blue haired magi stopped by a balcony, which was in front of the room of the empress Ren Kougyoku.

He slowly snuck into the room, seeing the woman in her bed, sleeping very peacefully. Aladdin smiled. To him, no matter what she did, Kougyoku always looked beautiful.

Speaking of which, the dark pink haired woman had a frown form on her face. She stirred in her sleeping, quietly crying. Aladdin became concerned. When Kougyoku started moving faster, the young man shook her. "Kou!" The empress jumped up, panting relentlessly. She looked to her side, seeing her boyfriend. "Aladdin?" "You okay? You look like you had a bad dream." "It's nothing. Just the usual childish nightmare with monsters and such." Aladdin was surprised. "Never expected you to have dreams like that. The first time this has happened?"
"Kind of. It has been happening the last two days."

Aladdin lifted up the blanket and crawled under. "Wh-what are you doing?!", exclaimed a flustered Kougyoku. "Getting ready to sleep with you." Kougyoku's jaw dropped. "Hey, this isn't any different from you falling asleep on my shoulder." "That's different! This is my bed!" "And?"

The woman struggled to think of a response. Aladdin kissed her gently on the lips. "I just want to make you feel safe." His words touched her. "Why do you always have to say things like that." Aladdin chuckled. Kougyoku pouted. "Fine. But if someone sees you in my bed, you're doing the explaining." "Deal." With this, the young woman lied down on the bed, letting her boyfriend gently hold her.
She steadily fell asleep, looking peaceful in the end.

Aladdin smiled and kissed her head, then fell asleep with her.

. . .

The morning sun had come. Kougyoku woke up, and saw the position she was in.

There wasn't a single nightmare that had plagued her. And it all seemed to happen after a certain magi had arrived. Kougyoku looked at the face of Aladdin, who was now already waking up. "Morning", he said. His lover smiled and rubbed her nose against his.
"Morning." Aladdin looked around. "Well, you wanted no one to see us like this, so maybe we should get up before that happens."

The young man stood up, little to his lover's chagrin. "So, how did you sleep?" Kougyoku thought about this. "Peacefully." Aladdin hugged her. "I'm glad."
He then noticed the empress blushing. "Is it okay if you... do this again? Sleep with me?" She looked at the magi. "And I don't mean that! I mean actually sleep with me."

Aladdin chuckled and pecked his lover's lips. "Of course. It means I get to spend more time with you."
Kougyoku blushed and hugged the azure haired male. "Thank you." Aladdin kissed her head. "Wanna go have breakfast together?" "Yes please."
