Once I was back to my bedroom after taking a warm bath, Aquarina greeted me, playing around with her spirits and her familiars. She had also brought several new fantasy story books she purchased, several of them with many colorful illustrations, and even bought a music magic artifact that produced nice melodies. There were also cookies, fruit juices, and fried potatoes she had bought in the restaurant for snacks.
It seems she has prepared a whole plan for tonight's sleepover. She was so cute working so hard for this, I felt captivated by her hard work and immediately decided to join in the fun too.
"Hey, I'm finally back! Sorry for taking so long, I talked a few things with mom… then my uncle, and then my father…" I sighed.
"Sylphy! Oh? What did you talked about?" Aquarina wondered, as Pyuku was sitting over her head.
"Err… well, I just… Talked with them about us." I said.
"About us?" She wondered.
"Yeah like… You know, the two of us having a relationship and all. And they said it was okay for us to be girlfriends." I said, slightly embarrassed.
"R-Really?!" She was shocked. "T-Then that's good! I can't believe it was that easy…"
Aquarina jumped towards me, hugging me tightly.
"I-It's not like we've made it official, right?" I wondered. "Also we kind of started without asking the other…"
"A-Ah, right…" Aquarina blushed a bit, and then she held my hands. "Then Sylphy, do you want to be my girlfriend? Hehe~"
Sigh, she's so adorable.
"I guess I can't help it~" I sighed.
"H-Hey don't ruin the moment!" She pouted.
I quickly hugged her back, feeling her warmth and the floral scent of her silver hair. I wanted to hug her like this forever and ever.
"Of course I want to, dummy. I love ya." I said, giving her a kiss.
"Sylphy…" Aquarina blushed a bit more. "A-And then when we grow up, we should also get married…"
"You're getting a bit too far ahead now…" I said, crossing my arms.
"Promise me you will marry me!" Aquarina complained, pouting like a spoiled brat.
"Sheesh, this is not something you should be demanding off a young lady such as me…" I sighed. "I won't promise you anything because things can't be easy, right?"
"Huh?!" Aquarina felt almost heartbroken.
"I-I mean, it doesn't mean I will reject you but…" I sighed. "You have to work hard if you want me for your wife! I won't simply give myself away easily."
"I-I see…" Aquarina realized what I meant to say. "Okay! I get it! I will grow super strong and… learn how to be a proper noble lady too. A-And earn money! And… prestige? Is that how it's said?"
"Hahah, you're at least trying, that's good." I giggled. "But for now, you shouldn't worry about those things. Let's enjoy the present."
I gave her a head pat as she looked at me with puppy eyes.
"Okay but don't marry anybody else…" She sighed, rubbing her face on my chest.
"Okay~ I promise I won't. I will wait for you, no matter what." I promised her.
"Ehehehe…" Aquarina started giggling happily, while rubbing her face on my breasts.
"H-Hey! What do you think you're doing?" I said, quickly trying to stop her.
"But yours are so soft and bouncyyyyy…" She complained, as I dragged her away.
"T-They're not toys or something…" I felt slightly embarrassed. "A-Anyways! Let's enjoy the night now! I can see you've brought a lot of things. And snacks too!"
"Yeah! Let's read this book I found!" Aquarina suddenly showed me a fairy tale book with pictures. The front had the picture of two girls holding hands while traveling a forest. "It is called the lost girls in the forest. The library person said it was about two friends that discover their true selves in a forest filled with magic."
"Oh, doesn't she look like you?" I wondered, pointing at the girl with tanned skin and silver hair.
"And she looks like you too!" Aquarina said, pointing at the girl with red hair.
It was just a coincidence, but it was rather adorable. I read the book for her out loud while we sat on the bed and ate snacks. The story was quite emotive. It was about two friends that ended fighting over dolls, one of them ran into the forest and lost herself there, while the other had to go look for her.
While in the forest, the two girls saw many visions and mirages of the past, present, and possible futures. In many of them, it showed a future without the other to be with them, and how sad they felt about having fought over something so small when the real treasure they had was their friendship.
At the end, a big creature appears, the guardian of the forest of mirages, which at first acts as an antagonistic force, intimidating the girls, but at the end, it shows to be a good spirit, that was trying to make both girls find each other.
"And then, the Forest Guardian said: "Have you now realized the true treasure in your hearts? It is not the dolls you hold, or the physical objects you sometimes cherish, but your real treasure is having one another." The two girls, surprised, nodded, realizing what they had done, and apologizing to each other. "I'm sorry, Elfina… I shouldn't had been selfish; I was so worried about you!" Sighed Anna. "It's fine, Anna, I am sorry too for running away… I was so afraid… I don't want you to be away from me ever again. Let's stay together forever!" Elfina said with a cheerful smile. "Yeah! Forever!" Anna giggled. Both girls held hands, walking out of the forest, every mirage and illusion disappeared, as their hearts were now filled with happiness and light, the guardian looked at them with a smile, and this tale, ended just fine." I said, finishing to read the last paragraph.
"Woooah! It was so cute…" Aquarina felt slightly moved. "I wonder if this forest even exists…"
"Maybe?" I wondered. "And yeah, it was a rather touching story."
Like that, we continued reading stories and chatting through the night, until we went to bed and cuddled together.
