It was the day after Silver Wolf's first virtual visit to the Astral Express, and you've just had a long day saying goodbye to all of the Belolog friends you've made along the way. You opened the door to your room, about to get changed and possibly go to sleep...

That was until you saw the virtual hologram of Silver Wolf again, playing some games on her phone while laying on your bed.

"Ah, you're back," Silver Wolf said nonchalantly as if it was something that normally happens. You stood still for a moment.

"Why... are you in my room?" You asked as you closed the door behind you.

"Hmm? Oh, I just wanted to play some games. Figured your room was the best place I could do that in."

"Why not just... play your games wherever you are right now?"

"Sometimes a girl just needs a change in environment for once, you know?"

You sighed. "Well, are you gonna be here for long? Its getting late and I'm about to go to bed."

"You're gonna be scrolling on your phone for hours before you actually go to sleep anyway."

You grunted. She hit the bingo on that one.

"Well, I'm more tired than usual today, so I think I'm actually gonna hit the hay early."

Then, you started to change into some casual clothes. First you took your shirt off and then your pants, leaving you in your underwear. Silver Wolf noticed that you were changing from her peripheral vision, but continues to play her games and act like she didn't notice. As you finished changing into a fresh pair of clothes, you walked over to the bed where Silver Wolf's hologram was laying on. Even though it was a hologram, you could still see the embarrassed look on Silver Wolf's face.

However, you didn't think too much about it, and immediately laid down on the bed, right where Silver Wolf was laying on, which was the outer side of the bed. Silver Wolf's hologram glitched to the other side of the bed as you did so, continuing to play her games.

"...Do you not mind getting into bed with me?" Silver Wolf asked, her eyes still fixating on her game.

"...Please don't make it weird. You're not even here anyway, so it's no big deal. Besides, like I said, I'm more tired than usual today, so I'm gonna be laying on my bed, whether you like it or not."

"Okay, whatever you say." Silver Wolf said, still playing her games. However, she subtly put on her earphones and made it so that the game audio was played on her earphones instead. You slowly sunk your ears into the silence, and drifted into sleep.

When you started to snore, Silver Wolf stopped playing her games, and looked at your sleeping body. She caressed your head with her hand, with the hologram of her hand glitching as it touches your hair. She let out a smile.

"Good night... my love." Then, her hologram slowly starts to fade away from your room.


On the Stellaron Hunter's spaceship, inside Silver Wolf's room, she was laying on the bed with the same position she was on yours. As she returned back to the real world, she could feel that her room was colder than usual. She curdles up into a fetal-like position while hugging a pillow, and went to sleep herself.
