The Ladies Heart

"Hmm... mmph."

Vivian opened her eyes slowly, the bright blue unfocused for a moment as she curled up next to the warmth beside her. She reached out, her hand touching skin briefly.

"Wait..."

Rubbing her eyes, Vivian realized that she wad laying in bed with someone.

'Wait, wait, wait. Did I screw up? I'm not a slut and I don't drink... wait, Yui?'

As Yui's face came into focus, Vivian turned a heavy scarlet. The busty beauty was sleeping, her breathing soft and rhythmic.

'How do you still look that pretty?!'

Vivian reached out slowly, her fingers lightly caressing Yui's cheek.

"Am I allowed to be this happy?"

A tear slid down her cheek as Vivian struggled to stay calm.

"Viv? Huh? When did I crawl into your bed?"

Both girls looked over, noticing the messy bundle of sheets on the floor.

"I-I'll just get back-"

Vivian wrapped her arm around Yui's waist.

"Stay up h-here... You've had a long day, so get comfortable."

Yui blinked a few times, her eyes getting narrow as she turned on her side. Her back now facing Vivian, she moved slightly until she felt Vivian against her back. She grabbed Vivian's arm, pulling her hand to her lips.

"This..."

Vivian sighed softly, her face completely past red.

"If you insist... you're shockingly clingy now."

Yui turned her face a bit more away.

"Sorry. I'll stop."

"Nah. I've been wallowing in despair for a bit here, so I'm gonna enjoy every last second of this."

Pulling Yui even closer to herself, Vivian smiled happily as closed her eyes... although a strange light seemed to be glowing suddenly.

"Are you on your phone?"

"Hmm? Not at all. What's wrong?"

Vivian opened her eyes, instantly looking past the light and directly into Yui's eyes. She was barely able to breathe as her heart began to thunder.

"Y-Yui..."

Yui rolled over, placing her head against Vivian's breasts.

"Sorry, again. Your face just made my head start floating."

Vivian looked down, a sudden thought breaking forward.

"Yui, do you actually like me? Or Justice? Although we are the same person, we aren't the same."

Yui's head popped up, her face dangerously close to Vivian's.

"Both. Justice was that cool new friend I started to have a crush on. She was strong and friendly, plus she liked to hang out and didn't care for status. You... you're Vivian. That dumb girl that stopped being a delinquent for a girl that played with flowers."

"Well, I guess I picked the best flower."

Yui glared softly, though she smiled.

"I was scared to tell you that I started to have feelings for you. You made me feel safe and secure while we chatted, keeping bullies and perverts away... though you kept checking out my breasts yourself. It's not hard to fall in love if the person beside you makes you feel what you desire. Safety and happiness. Now you. Who do you like? Me, or Sym?"

Vivian tilted her head, her eyes bobbing back and forth as if she was thinking.

"Symphony is my friend that saved me from a Bounty Hunter, then flirted with me as if she were able to take me at any time. Yui, you're the quiet princess that threw a book at me when I accidentally broke a flower pot. You didn't know who or why, you just got upset because I messed something up. Then I was forced to help replant the flower, having some fun while doing so, then I kept coming back and watching that princess with her head in her books and her hands in the dirt. Also... boobs. You're packing a nice pair, though I'm just saying what's in my head now."

Both girls turned bright red as they began to giggle softly.

"Yui, I guess we both are just finally able to open our hearts. You said you wanted more, so how much more do you want?"

Yui looked down, her eyes awkwardly staring into Vivian's cleavage.

"Erm... you're really gonna make me sit here and say it?"

Vivian placed her lips against Yui's forehead, the light she had been ignoring finally coming into focus.

[Admin Justice, please return to Relian to accept your quest.]

She froze up, her breath slowing heavily. Yui sat up, her eyes confused.

"Hey, what's wrong? Look at me."

"Yui... has the A.I. ever spoken to you... in this world?"

Yui placed her hand against Vivian's forehead, then her own forehead. She sat there for a moment before sighing.

"You see a screen, don't you? And here we were, all cuddled up and warm. The system reacts out here as well. It's the only way we know if there are Bugs while we aren't in the game. This sucks. I was really trying."

Yui began to get up, but Vivian grabbed her waist and pulled her back.

"Let's go help Mai, but first... can I ask you to go out with me?"
