Chapter 140 - The Bed Is Too Small
However, when two became three, it suddenly became a problem.
Although Dixie had briefly woken up while Emilia was brushing her teeth and cleaning her face, the girl blissfully drifted off to sleep shortly afterward, and Emilia insisted on not waking her up as she would need to go to the dojo early in the morning.
That meant that the option of Dixie herself offering to sleep on the sofa was out, and as Crystal expected, Emilia would never \'wrong\' her dearest knight, and confidently carried her to bed.
Crystal knew that now was the time for her to be a good host, and tell Emilia that she would be the one taking the sofa instead, but there was no way she was gonna do that.
Emilia, on the other hand, never considered the size of the bed to be an issue. According to her calculations, it was just big enough, though she would still rather have it replaced with something of better quality later.
As for who went where, Emilia had climbed in after putting Dixie down, so that left Crystal with two choices, and there was no need for her to think about where she should go.
Unfortunately, that made the situation \'worse\' as Emilia had left a little spare space on the bed on the other side, so as to make sure Dixie didn\'t fall off later.
Emilia smirked as she saw Crystal try her best to huddle closer without making too much body contact, and wrapped an arm around the girl\'s waist to pull her closer. "Don\'t worry. I\'ll make sure you don\'t fall off at night."
Crystal nodded, acutely aware of what the soft bumps pressing against her chest were, as well as her thigh which had somehow ended up wedged between Emilia\'s legs, and she was very thankful to the darkness of the night for hiding her blush. "T-Thank you."
Emilia giggled. "By the way, just because Dixie was here today doesn\'t mean you\'re allowed to forget our deal, okay? I still haven\'t heard you call me big sister today."
The heroine blinked in surprise. "H-Huh? B-But wasn\'t that only when we were alone?"
Emilia nodded. "Well, only the two of us are awake right now… so, we\'re alone, aren\'t we?"
Crystal bit her lip tightly as she thought about how stubborn Emilia could be when it came to silly things like this, and decided that arguing was useless. She could only helplessly mumble it out. "B-Big sister…"
"Good girl— ?!"
Emilia\'s words were abruptly cut off as she was pulled away from Crystal, and then felt something hot and wet press against the back of her neck. Apparently, Dixie had started dreaming about something strange again, and was now nibbling on her nape while holding her tight.
"Princess… t-taste good…"
Even if Crystal had been blind and deaf, she would still have figured out what was going on. As it was, though, even in the dim night light she could clearly see that Dixie had pulled Emilia closer to herself, and was definitely leaving \'love bites\' on the girl\'s neck.
As for whether she was dreaming about food or something else, neither of them could tell.
Crystal really couldn\'t bear it anymore and turned on the lamp by the bedside, but Emilia made a shushing motion to stop her just as she was about to yell at Dixie to snap out of it.
Even though Emilia\'s face was slightly red, she patted the blonde girl\'s hand to calm her down. "Don\'t worry, she\'s just a little naughty, she won\'t really bite me."
Crystal frowned. "T-That\'s not what I\'m worried about! You\'re not gonna let her keep doing that, right? She\'s gonna leave love bites all over your neck, how will you explain that?"
Emilia giggled. With her body, the marks left by Dixie\'s gentle nibbling wouldn\'t even last a few minutes, let alone be there the next morning. "Don\'t worry about it, I don\'t think she\'ll leave a mark, but if she does, I can always cover it up. Anyway, come back, you also have to come with me to school tomorrow. I won\'t let your grades slip again, alright? So no skipping!"
The blonde girl bit her lip as she got back on the bed, wondering why this girl\'s priorities were so messed up. And even though there was now more space on the bed for her since Dixie had practically pulled Emilia into her body, Crystal wasn\'t happy about it at all. "I-I… I don\'t think you should let her keep doing that."
Emilia\'s breathing was already slightly heavy as Dixie continued her \'treatment\'. "W-Why? It doesn\'t hurt, you know. In fact, it feels really good. I\'ve rarely felt this good before, mhm…"
The closest she could remember being in this much pleasure was when she had made out with Dixie that night. "You wanna try? Come on, bring your face closer to big sister?"
The heroine couldn\'t help but grit her teeth. "J-Just because it feels good doesn\'t mean you should let her do that! Y-You know, t-the purity of a girl is very important! Y-You can\'t let her taint you!"
As if cowed a little by the blonde\'s \'scolding\', the dreaming Dixie actually calmed down and went back to sleeping peacefully.
Emilia sighed, feeling regretful for both Crystal not taking her offer and Dixie stopping her free \'massage\'. "Look, isn\'t it fine now? What purity? You won\'t think I\'m dirty now and stop talking to me, would you?"
The blonde girl shook her head. "O-Of course not!"
Emilia smiled. "So why does it matter?"
Although Crystal hated the guy, in her embarrassment, she couldn\'t help but bring him up as a shield. "I-It matters because your future lover might mind. Um, that\'s it. I-I\'m sure Randy will be very angry if he saw you covered in love bites!"
Emilia rolled her eyes as she patted the blonde girl\'s cheek. She was almost sure that Crystal already liked her, but she was still saying things like that. "You\'re so silly, little sister. Tell me, should I go back tomorrow and sleep with him?"
Crystal shook her head furiously. She could barely tolerate Dixie touching Emilia, but just thinking about a boy doing the same made her blood boil. "N-No! I don\'t think he\'s suitable for you at all! You have to break up with him, definitely!"
Emilia giggled. "Okay, since you said so, I\'ll figure something out. And then? Who do you think is suitable for me? I trust Crystal\'s judgment a lot, so I\'ll definitely get together with the person you recommend. So… who is it?"
The blonde gulped. Is Emilia seriously asking for recommendations for her future lover? Is it alright to recommend herself? That probably won\'t fly, right?
As for recommending someone else? Crystal wasn\'t stupid enough to do that. "T-These kinds of things can\'t be rushed."
Emilia of course had no intention of just letting the heroine off the hook. "What do you think about Dixie, she\'s pretty good, right?"
