Something smells good. It’s a sweet kind of smell which reminds me of shampoo with a slight tinge of sweat. It’s pleasant to the nose, simulating the image of a healthy flower waiting to be plucked. My body feels heavier than usual too and I can’t move my arms. I slowly open my eyes and the first thing I see is the ceiling but it takes a few moments for my eyes to adjust. That’s right, I passed out after that wild goose chase last night.

Yuriko, Chie and I went after the enemy flagship. We traversed the untamed jungle and it took me quite a bit of effort to keep up with those two Exo-Armamental Suit wearing monsters. We searched the island from the afternoon to dusk but we couldn’t find anyone. Giving up on our search, Yuriko brought us to another hut and I took a bath and naturally, I passed out. I was dead tired from overusing “Laser Beam” and the tension that I felt the entire day didn’t help my mental health at all.

I yawned and smiled, “I guess this isn’t so bad after all but,” I looked around the simple room. “Where are they?” I wonder where Chie and Yuriko went off to. I tried standing up but something soft is pushing up against me. It’s pleasant to the touch. With curiosity starting to get the better of me, I tried touching the soft object but I knew better.

That ‘soft and heavenly’ thing could only be Yuriko’s mature chest or Chie’s shapely ass. Knowing better than to be an idiot, I forced myself to stand only to blunder and make an ass out of myself. My right arm was being pressed between two round objects and the force that I exerted in standing up backfired into me tripping falling headfirst to the left side of the bed. Expecting a painful crash to the floor, I found that my left arm was being caressed by two bountiful objects as well.

I guess I thought wrong, it wasn’t Chie or Yuriko, I was stuck between the two of them with my arms pressed between their chests. From either side, I am met by a strangely erotic sight of a maiden’s unprotected sleeping face. Instead of complaining to the Gods, I find myself at peace as I stared into their faces as the cuteness of their silent breathing filled the room with a pleasant atmosphere. I free my left arm from Yuriko and I begin stroking Chie’s face. Her usually serious demeanor seems as different from her pleasantly amused face as I gently held her cheek, filling up my hand with her body heat. I turned to my left and did the same thing with Yuriko. She always has this fear in her face whenever she looks at me but right now her face is at its most beautiful state. I gently stroke her face and the sight of her appreciating my touch brought a smile to my face.

I strengthen my resolve to protect these dear friends of mine but what reason do I have to risk my life for two people I have barely known for a day? I’ve been wondering that myself when I first woke up but everything makes sense now. They are important comrades who fought beside me. They will never betray me and I will never betray them. No, that’s not even the real reason but it’s not a lie either. The truth is, I have nothing but the two of them. If I have to spend the rest of my life with these two then I will die happy and content. ‘Man’s greatest treasures are his friends, after all.’

Shuffle, shuffle.

A sultry voice spoke into my ear, surprising me. “Ara, ara. I didn’t know you were so daring, Alphonse.” She kissed my cheek and pulled her face back, revealing a fiendish smile.

“Oh, you were up then, Yuriko?” I touch the part where she kissed me. “You should have said something then. It’s rude to pretend to be sleeping.”

She chuckled “Well I really don’t mind you touching me, Alphonse, but for you to touch Chi at the same time,“ She looked into my eyes. “Aren’t you being a little too greedy?” Feeling venom in her voice, I involuntarily shuddered.

Noticing my reaction, Yuriko lets out a soft sigh. “I’m only kidding” and as she finished what she was saying, she swiftly knocks my hand away and forces me down with a military take down. She now has me in a mounted position and I have no way to counter. Forming a fist, she pulls back her arm and releases a punch faster than anything I have ever seen before.

Cringing, I open my right eye to check if I was still among the world of the living only to find her head on my chest and her right arm cradling my head. “Do you still think that I’m mad, Alphonse?” She looks at me with those pitiable eyes again, totally devoid of the commanding aura that she had when I first saw her with her Exo-Armamental suit on. I shake my head and gave her what I can only describe as an honest smile.

She bites her lip, seemingly troubled. “Alphonse, I’m afraid that I may not want to tell you who you were before you became Alphonse.” Her eyes started tearing up. “Would you hate that kind of woman? Would you hate me if I told you that I needed you far more than you needed me?”

So that’s what’s bothering her.

I take my time to think of how I honestly felt about my situation and when I had reached my decision, I knew there was no turning back. I gently caress her cheek with my hand and I wipe the tears that flowed from her eye with the other. “None of that matters right now Yuriko. I want to regain my memories and I’m sure that I have friends waiting for me but no, I will not hate you for wanting to keep things as they are now.” I held her hands with both of mine and I looked into her eyes, conveying the seriousness of what I am saying. “But please do not try to stop me on this journey of mine for it is mine alone to take.”

She tightly holds my hands in response but she looked annoyed.

Making a ‘tsk’ sound, she reprimands me. “It is not your journey alone, Alphonse. You have Chie and I with you.” She pauses and then lays her head on my chest. “Forever, you know?”

To my right, I felt something completely contrary to the sweet mood between Yuriko and myself. I remembered that we weren’t alone.

“Am I in the way, Captain? Monmon? Then this annoying cockblocker should probably leave.” Chi was completely mad. Instinct taking over, I pulled on her hand as she was standing up and hugged her with my free arm. Seeing her change from angry to flusterred and finally to happy within seconds brought pleasure to my heart. Am I actually a sadi, no I can’t even go through with that thought.

“Captain, sharing is caring.” Chi smiled smugly.

Yuriko, not wanting to miss out gave me another kiss but this time it was longer and…wet. “You have a lot more to work on, Chi.” She said as she wiped the saliva from my cheek. Seeing a string of her spit form as she separates her lips from my cheek is strangely erotic, that and considering the way they are dressed. Oh did I forget to mention that? Yuriko is wearing this appealing black lace lingerie that looks too risqué to the male eye. Her gorgeous porcelain figure is highlighted by the contrast the dark pieces of cloth brought to her pure and snow white skin. Chie, on the other hand is wearing this cute night gown that highly accentuates her youthful features to an almost terrifying degree.

The women kept trying to outdo each other that it started to annoy me, I wanted to have breakfast after all. I sat down and I cracked my knuckles. Yuriko and Chie were dumbfounded but as they were about to voice out their complaint or whatever, I grabbed Yuriko by her lingerie and gave her a deep kiss, massaging her tongue with mine. She tried to resist it at first but she soon found herself immersed in the world that I created with my tongue. I don’t know how I learned how to kiss like this but it’s a pretty useful technique. Separating my mouth from hers, a string of saliva is formed and I pulled my head back and watched it break apart. Yuriko had a look of annoyance on her face but then resorted to pouting.

I then grabbed Chie and traced her collar bone with my thumb. She shuddered at my touch but I knew better. I pulled her face towards mine and gave her a passionate kiss as I grabbed her magnificent chest with my free hand, directing her head to mine with the other. Chie didn’t seem like she was experienced with these sort of things but it was cute how she was doing her best. I then pulled back and kissed Yuriko again, this time she was more willing. I grabbed her large chest with my hand and massaged it, seemingly shaping it to the form of my hand. She lets out this cute little voice that made me laugh a little. I did this for a while, changing between Chie and Yuriko.

After kissing the both of them, I simply stood up and left the two panting and confused. That should teach them not to get between me and breakfast.

Episode Chie 001

Pant. Pant. Pant.

I’m panting and besides me is my Captain, Yuriko. We’re both sweaty and happy but we weren’t satisfied. I mean who the hell does that? Who the hell gets you in the mood and simply walks away?! In the first place, did he even know what he was doing? How the hell did he learn to kiss like that? It’s unreal! His tongue felt wonderful and the way his lips collided with mine felt absolutely exquisite! I think I even got a little we – wait that’s not important right now!

Pant. Pant. Pant.

“Captain..” I looked at the woman beside me. She had this look of content on her face but it was masked by a look of an even greater yearning. I know what she wants but she didn’t get it. No, no one got it.

“Chi, that was superb but I didn’t expect him to be that rough!” She licked lips and giggled. “I know that the pact between us was made but for him to act like that on the first day! I wonder what he’s going to do tonight!” She giggles and rolls around.

Ah yes, the pact. The pact of ‘naming’ a soldier is actually one of the oldest traditions in our military. It is a deep honor for a Man to be named by an Exo-Armamental Wielder because it signifies that the man has proven his mettle and is deserving to be married to the one who named him. The pact can be between two or more people but in our kingdom, it is generally recommended for a man to be married to multiple wives due to our low birth rate and so in this sense, Monmon, Captain and I are all a family now.

Geez, I wonder how the rest of the squadron is going to react to this.

“So how was it Captain. Your first kiss?” I averted my eyes and stared at the nearest wall.

“It was…intense. How was yours, Chi?” She smiled happily.

“He was gentle but rough.” I blushed and seeing Yuriko’s amused expression, we both burst into laughter.

As this gentle scene was unfolding, a thought suddenly hit me. Does that hick even know what the ‘pact’ actually is? Knowing him, he probably kissed us just to shut us up!

This is going to be troublesome in a lot of ways.
