I was reawakened by the heavy breathing and sniffing that was exhaled on my face

Waking up in such an uncomforting way, I take a look to see who was breathing on me

Facing the direction of where the source is, I wasn’t surprised to see Mira, next to me on my bed

Breathing and sniffing in her sleep, she giggled, murmuring my name as she then hugs me as if she knew I was about to leave the bed

Managing to let go of her hugs, I quickly yet quietly go went out of my room to go greet everyone for breakfast

As I was about to walk out of my room, I noticed that everything was cleaned up from the incident

Reaching the dining room, I see that everyone was waiting for me to come down, ready to eat

Mist greeted me, along with my members, Claire, Kate, and Kasey (who instead clung to me)

“Good Morning!”

I replied back to all of them with a good morning and took a sit on an empty seat on the table

Athena came out of the kitchen placing out her signature black liquid to everyone, which everyone drank with ease

As I was drinking this concoction, I noticed Athena placing one more cup on the table, next to an empty seat right next to me

“Whose drink is that?” I asked

“You will see,” Athena said in a sinister fashion, quickly walking her way up to the guest rooms

After finishing my drink, I decided to wait for Athena to back to the dining room, still curious about what is doing

Everyone was also done and started to take their life, getting ready to do their own things or to go to guild together to on a quest

Mist sees me sitting there with my empty cup and asks, “What are you waiting for, Yasu?”

“I don’t know…” I replied

“Are you waiting for Mira?” Mist said collecting all the cups that everyone left, including mines

“Mira…” Then I remembered that she was now part of our party as well as realizing what Athena meant by waiting

Scared of what Mira might do, I quickly go out of my chair and started to rush both Claire and Kate to get ready and leave, but it was too late, as Athena walked into the dining room, smiling sinisterly at me

Gasping at what is about to come, I decided to leave Kate and Claire and run out the door but was grabbed by the ends of my clock and dragged back into my seat and tied to it

I then turned to the empty seat with the cup of liquid and see Mira, taking a seat there and scooting her seat and cup closer to me in which I tried to scoot away from her by instinct, but my chair didn’t move, which resulted in me looking at Athena, who was the one that has probably plotted this

My head then instinctively turned towards Kate and Claire in hopes of having them to help assist me

But they quietly responded by shaking their head and hands as a sign of a no go and started to back up getting further away from me

Giggling started to happen, and it came from one source, Mira, who took a sip of the liquid and started to lean against me, trying to feed me by mouth

“I am good, you can drink it all yourself, I just ate mines,” I said nervously, trying to have Mira give up on mouth feeding me

But she is persistent and started to continue, my and her lips get closer and closer

“Is this how my first kiss, is going to be like?” I thought panicking, not remembering if I was even kissed before

Inching closer and closer as I shut my eyes in hopes I don’t have to witness myself getting kissed, but after a few seconds nothing happened

“...”

I slowly opened my eyes, to see that Mist was there to stop Mira and me from making contact, with a cup she blocked Mira

“Athena, let Yasu go” she ordered, in which Athena clicked her tongue and released me

“What are you doing?!” Mira asked as she spat out the liquid into the empty cup Mis was holding

“You shouldn’t be doing this in this castle, in MY castle” Mist replied, with a red face

“Is there something wrong, between me and the love of my life?” Mira asked

“Yes!” Mist replied immediately

And the talking continued [I would have liked to continue the conversation, but maybe it can be done at another time on another date]

I took this advantage and pushed Kate and Claire out the door of the castle to the outside and ran straight to the guild to quickly grab a quest and complete it before Mira joins in

“Thank you Mist!” I said as a pray and went to the guild room

Upon entering the guild room, the chattering that usually happened in the room had gone all quiet as I entered, with all eyes fixed on me

I was disturbed by the pressure they had made by just looking at me, but I continued to the receptionist, who seemed to be the only person normal today

“What is going on?” I whispered to the receptionist

“Well…”
