A Night with Faein: Confessions and Conflicts

“Did you… get the room wrong?” Faein asked.

“Ehh? I…” I panicked as my hand touched something smooth and wrinkled on the bed. I didn’t pay much attention.

“Huh? Your outfit…” *giggles* Faein flipped her wet hair and couldn’t help but laugh.

“Sensei!” I complained, blushing. “You’re laughing at me! This is all your fault, making bets with people like that!”

Faein’s face flushed as she smiled, looking very charming. She walked over and stood by me, emphasizing her tall figure. I could only look up.

“That bunny outfit really doesn’t suit you.”

“Ehh… is that so?” I hung my head, feeling even more dejected.

“But…” Faein also turned away, blushing and biting her knuckle. “Even if it doesn’t suit you, it’s still quite cute.”

“Hmph, you’re only saying that to console me.”

“No, if you worked at a casino, you’d be very popular.”

“I don’t find that kind of attention very appealing.”

“Then, what would make you happy, little sister?” Faein leaned in, her silky arm resting on my shoulder.

“Ehh?” From this angle, I could see Faein’s breasts peeking through her towel, pressed together in a way that was even more shocking.

“Wow!” I thought to myself. At a time like this, a flat-chested girl like me couldn’t resist a big-breasted older sister, even if I didn’t care about my own bust size. The natural inferiority complex of a girl’s body made me admire and submit to a healthy, well-endowed woman without even realizing it. This was a natural admiration and submission to the more sexually attractive side, which I couldn’t resist.

“What are you thinking? Flustered again?” Faein seemed to be teasing me.

“N-nothing.”

“Hmm, can you take your hand off my underwear?” Faein asked gently.

“Ehh?” Only then did I feel my palm tingle. I had been unknowingly gripping Faein’s underwear! It was a pale blue, close to the sheets, so I hadn’t noticed.

“I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” I quickly pulled my hand back, putting it on my lap.

“And lift your feet too.”

“Ehh?”

Faein leaned forward, kneeing up onto the bed and pressing against me. A captivating post-bath scent enveloped me. She reached down to pull something from under my feet.

“Lift up!” Faein patted my leg.

I hurriedly lifted my legs. A pale blue lace bra was pulled out, held up by her fingers, swaying in front of my face.

It was as if she was intentionally showing off the size of her bra.

And I, without any dignity, squinted my eyes, breathing in the alluring scent. It was different from the scent of a post-bath body, a scent after exercise.

This was another indescribable mental compensation. I thought, as a weak and petite magic user, I had a natural longing for tall, healthy, athletic, and melee-combat-savvy older sisters. I wondered if the older sister was also attracted to me, a girl of such a different physique.

“You’ve been hiding my undergarments, what were you planning to do?” Faein asked with a smile that made my heart flutter.

“I didn’t mean to!” I quickly denied.

“Alright, turn around, I need to change.”

“Ehh?” I thought it was normal, but it was also strange. We’re both girls, so why do we need to turn away to change clothes? Does she know I’m interested in her?

In the end, I still knelt on the bed and turned around.

After a soft, alluring rustling, Faein said, “Alright, you can turn back.”

I turned around to see Faein in a pale green nightgown, the kind with a modest lace pattern, very mature.

And next to me, there was a cute lavender nightgown and a big white towel.

“Go take a bath. Change out of those clothes too.” Faein said.

“Ehh?” I looked at Faein with a mix of anticipation and confusion.

“What? It’s so late, how can I bear to send a cute girl home alone? Stay here tonight.”

“Sensei…” Faein was indeed considerate and gentle, worried about me going home alone. Wait, no, my bedroom was just across the hallway, and this was the most heavily guarded part of the underground city, the Princess’ Chambers.

But it didn’t matter. Being able to spend the night with Faei, for me, it was like a dream. I wouldn’t refuse her, no matter what excuse she used.

“Yeah.” I nodded, blushing.

“Hurry up.”

I picked up the towel and clothes, just realizing why Faei had prepared clothes of my size, even underwear. Could they have belonged to…

I felt a pang of jealousy, wishing she only had me. I even had the mean thought that I hoped Yukino would just disappear in the underground city, never to be found. I couldn’t imagine what would happen if Yukino and Faei met again, how I would feel.

I couldn’t get Faei off my mind, couldn’t sleep without her scent. But perhaps, after the Adult Festival, I would have to follow Faei on her journey to find Yukino.

I had already made this decision in my heart, even though I selfishly hoped to never find Yukino, I couldn’t let Faei brave the dangers of the other underground cities or the unknown adventures alone.

No, perhaps Faei’s power was enough to overcome these dangers, but it was I who couldn’t imagine a time without her.

Holding these clothes that might have belonged to my rival, I walked into the bathroom.

After the bath, I seemed to be thinking of Yukino, wishing she wasn’t between me and Faei. I also hoped Faei would like me more if I wore Yukino’s clothes. I was conflicted and hesitated as I walked out of the bathroom.

But what greeted me was a big, soft bed with two neatly made beds.

So, we were to sleep separately. Annoying! It was normal for school seniors and juniors to have separate beds, wasn’t it? What was I expecting?

“Go to sleep.” Faei sat by the softly lit bedside table, doing her nighttime skincare.

Even though I thought Faei was naturally beautiful and didn’t need the care, it still gave off a mature charm when girls put on these things.

Sleep.

I and Faei lay on the wide, soft bed, each with our own blanket, back to back.

Faei turned off the light, and the room was filled with a soothing blue.

“Sensei.” I looked at the rose window with its ethereal blue glow and spoke softly.

“Hmm?” Faei’s voice was even gentler than when she was standing.

“After the Adult Festival, will you go find Yukino?”

“…Yeah.”

“Sensei, can I come with you?”

Faei was silent for a long time, then answered with a voice so gentle it was hard to imagine: “Alright.”
