Felt If (Re:Zero)

Chapter 3: Clowny Lessons

Subaru was fast asleep, knowing his life isn't in any danger really helped the boy in putting his mind at ease. However, that was eventually put to an end once the pink haired doppelgängers let themselves in.

"Good morning, guest-sama." The two girls said in perfect unison and bowed towards Subaru who was very groggily waking himself up. His vision was still blurry as he didn't prepare himself to wake up this early. Subaru managed to at least figure out that the twin maids were the ones to wake him up.

"You two...?" He asked exhaustedly.

Without wasting any time, Flam continued. "We were informed that you'll be participating in Lady Felt's candidacy training."

Oh right, I was going to be doing something like that, Subaru thought. However, he was still too tired and just yanked the covers over himself. "Five more minutes..." He groaned out, nearly passing out again.

The twins blinked and looked at one another for a moment. They then shrugged in unison and bowed to Subaru. "Understood, we will return in five minutes." And with that, the twins left the room, leaving Subaru to continue his sleeping montage.

The time spent sleeping once again was really relaxing. Subaru was also kinda surprised that he even got away with it. Usually in anime when someone said that phrase, they would try extra hard to get them up or something along those lines.

As if on cue to his thoughts, he felt a very powerful force strike his stomach. It was as if someone drop kicked him, aiming directly in his stomach. The pain shot him up from the bed, letting out a loud groan as he instantly saw who his attacker was.

It was Felt who had indeed drop kicked him.

"GYAAAAAH! What was that for?!" Subaru cried out. Five minutes hadn't even passed since the twins came by.

"Do I really need to answer that?! You were trying to bail on me so I decided to knock some sense back into ya!" Felt answered as she was still standing on top of Subaru.

"Alright, I get it. But you don't need to launch yourself at me like a missile!"

"I don't know what a missile is but I'll launch myself at you however I want if you're gonna stay in bed like some kind of troll! Besides, you promised that you'll go through this with me. It'd be pretty shitty of you to abandon family like that."

Subaru raised an eyebrow to this. "Family? Oh yeah, I've been meaning to ask you about that. I remember you calling me your big brother at some point. Is that some kind of alibi for something?"

"That thing? Not really. I mean, you stuck your neck out for me and you really saved my life from that crazy bitch. I seriously would be dead if it weren't for you. And that's what family does, they stick up for one another." Felt smiled, showing genuine appreciation.

Subaru smiled as well and lightly chuckled. "I guess you got a point there, little sister." While Subaru was lightly chuckling, that comment made Felt look rather annoyed and stomped her foot down. Since she was still standing on top of Subaru, Felt essentially gave his stomach another kick which stopped the boy's chuckling and let out another gyaah sound. " H-Hey! What gives?!"

"I dunno, when I hear you say it like that, it pisses me off." Felt explained as she crossed her arms, looking very clearly disturbed. "Call me something else."

Subaru took a second to think and placed his hands over Felt's feet before he answered, just in case she got mad again. "Well, how about lil' sis?" He then braced himself to endure another kick. Luckily, that kick never came.

"Hm... Lil' sis..." Felt muttered. "Yeah! It has a nice ring to it! I knew you'd come up with something less embarrassing."

"But lil' sis is just a shortened version of little sist- GYAAAAH!!!" Subaru was suddenly interrupted as Felt stomped her foot down.
