Moonlight shined through the crack in the curtain hanging above the only window in the room as the two laid their heads down to rest. “We should sleep we have to get up early.”

“Mmm…” Bella nodded her head and adjusted herself to a more comfortable position. Both of them turned away from one another to try to make their first night together less awkward for them.

Leo ran through the events of the day and felt it had been a long and interesting day. ‘Are you going to have a wet dream?’

‘Liana…’ Leo sighed. He was not numb to such things since he had had them before himself, but to hear Liana say such things in a teasing manner made me kind of self-conscious.

‘Hehe, I know. I know. I just couldn’t resist. But really, this girl has at least some unconscious interest in you. She seems to already trust you quite a bit. She is not even guarded against you.’

‘I am not sure if I should be happy about that or not. Bella is a good girl and I would date her with the intention to marry if I could but our status is another story. It would never be allowed.’

‘Do not be so sure. And before you go ignoring me with what I am about to say, hear me out. If you two get close enough and progress to a point where your feelings are strong enough to risk it all, to get around the whole status aspect of things, you will just need to do the deed.’

‘That is pushing it quite a bit. For one thing I do not even know what love feels like so it would be a long time before that even happened if we ever reached that height. I mean, we will probably end up splitting up here soon.’

‘Maybe not. From what I can see, you two will be sharing this room the entire time you are here at the academy. In fact, she might just fight for it.’ Leo could feel Liana's teasing grin at the end. He sighed and opened his eyes, looking at the white walls in front of him. Their room was quite small. It had to be since it fit a decent-sized bathroom along with two large beds, two cubbies, and two nightstands. There was only a few feet in between the beds.

“Leo… Are you still awake.” A soft voice came from the other side of the room. Leo rolled over to see Bella looking over at him.

“Mmm… What’s wrong, can’t sleep?” Leo kept his voice low for some reason. With how dark the room was, it was hard to see Bella’s face, but he could make out the outline of her body with the bit of moonlight that entered the room.

“Yeah… I have never been good with new places. I end up tossing and turning. My personal maid, Janet, used to hold my hand until I fell asleep, so this is new to me. I will get used to it, I am sure.” Bella was blushing. She was glad it was dark. She had no idea why she even said any of that to Leo since it was exposing an embarrassing side of her. A girl her age was basically saying she was afraid of sleeping in new places.

But to her surprise, in answer to her words, Leo suddenly got out of bed, pushed his bed next to hers, and laid back down, holding his hand out. “Just for tonight. My little sister had trouble sleeping at times as well. I used to hold her hand to help her sleep.”

“Wha… I…” Bella was stunned. She looked at the eyes in front of her that were filled with pure intent and felt her heart begin to beat faster. She hesitated for a few seconds before slowly reaching out and placing her right hand into Leo’s waiting left hand. Leo then interlocked his fingers with hers, causing her heart to thump harder. She did not know what she would do if he suddenly pulled her into his embrace, but that seemed to be nothing but her own fantasies since Leo slowly closed his eyes and laid still.

“Hopefully this helps.” Leo’s soft, tired voice entered Bella’s ears. She looked at his handsome side profile that was now only inches away from her face and then down at the hands that were clasped together. She, too, at some point, had held his hand tighter. She wondered if Leo would do this for any girl or if he was at all interested in her. Bella’s mind was a mess. But as she listened to the sound of Leo’s slow and steady breathing, she couldn’t help but pace her breathing with his. Before she knew it, she, too, slipped into dreamland.

The room was soon filled with the sounds of their soft breathing, a beautiful blue-haired girl lying next to a handsome silvered-haired boy. The way they lay there with their hands clasped together looked like a quiet, picturesque scene.

Within Leo’s body, a fiery red-haired girl sat in her chaotic space, looking out into the room. ‘And Leo keeps acting as if he doesn’t have a chance. This girl may not have realized it but my future husband has already long won over her heart. Such a cute little sister will be perfect for Leo. I hope she never betrays him or else once I appear, the first thing I will do is destroy this kingdom.’

With a flick of her tail, the fiery-haired girl curled up on her throne and fell asleep.
