Reborn as an Evolving Space Monster: Harem Of Otherworldly Beauties

Rea gulped.

The silence was starting to feel unbearable.

A silence she wanted filled by the noise of his thrusting into her slippery insides, by the noise of her fluids splashing, by his grunts, by her moans and her gasps.

Unfortunately, none were an option right now.

"There's something I need to talk to you about." The Paru said as he turned away. "We'll do that later. I need to talk to someone before that."

"A… Alright." Rea, who was kneeling on the bed, couldn't help but gulp again.

A moment later, the door closed behind him.

Her butt fell onto the bed, and her hand shot to her crotch right away.

The hangover was long gone.

"Look who's here." Raya whispered, rubbing her eyes.

She was still under her blanket, and her voice made her tiredness obvious.

Woken up by Cero opening the door to her room, she slowly started rising.

"You don't have to get up." The Paru said as he closed the door behind him.

"Thanks." Raya nodded as she sat up. "Still, that would be a bit rude."

"Mm… I guess?"

The two remained silent for a bit.

Raya rubbed her eyes again, while Cero scratched his neck.

"You're still wearing pants." She noted. "That's good."

"Yeah, I'm trying to get civilized a bit."

Raya chuckled, but the awkwardness in the air couldn't be denied.

"So…" Raya raised a hand towards him. "You're…?"

"I uh… Came to see you."

"Did… Do you need anything? I mean… Are there tests you want to run or something?"

"No, not really."

"Oh, I see..." Raya scratched her head, directing her gaze towards the blanket over her legs for a moment. She took hold of a lock of hair and started fiddling with it. "So um… How did you sleep?"

"Well." He nodded. "What about you?"

"I slept really well actually. Just not enough, I guess."

"Oh-"

"N-No! I didn't mean it like that. I mean… I'm glad you're here. I'm just… You know… Sleepy."

"I get it."

"I didn't mean that I didn't sleep enough because you came. I… Um…"

"Well, that is what happened."

"Well… Yes but… I didn't… Um…" Raya rubbed her forehead with her eyes closed, frowning. "It's um…"

The Paru took a breath in.

"It's awkward."

"Hm?" Raya turned towards him swiftly. "W-What do you mean?"

"Don't you think?" He frowned slightly. "That it's a bit awkward?"

"W-What makes you think that? Just because we… You know… It doesn't have to be-"

"I didn't mean that. I'm just talking about… Well, now."

'Ugh…' Raya tried not to show her frustration, but her twitching hands betrayed it. "I'm-"

"Don't apologize." Cero interrupted before she could. "It's fine."

"I always make things awkward. Both yesterday, and now…"

"I don't think you make them awkward. We're both… A bit awkward right now. That's all."

Raya let out a long sigh.

"It's just because I just woke up! Normally, I would be…"

"Yeah? You're the kind who needs to prepare to see and talk to people?"

"Not to people in general…" Raya muttered, embarrassed. "But yeah, maybe… Some people…"

"Mm." Cero nodded as he let his back rest against the door. "I understand… I think."

A couple of silent seconds later, Raya pressed her lips together and took a deep breath in.

"I'm sorry, maybe it would be better if you came back later. Right now, I'm just a bit… Foggy and…"

"So you want to sleep some more?"

"Yes, I think I need to…" Raya tilted her head. "What are you…?"

Before she could finish her question, the Paru had closed the distance.

He didn't answer.

Instead, Cero got on the bed, and took a seat between Raya and the headrest.

She stared at him for a moment, rubbing her hands together.

He had his back against the headrest, while his legs were spread on each side of her.

Raya slowly and timidly moved closer to him, until her back rested against his body.

Cero reached forward to take hold of the blanket and pull it over them.

She rested the back of her against his chest and moved around a bit, getting comfortable.

"I guess… It was a bit awkward."

"Yeah."

"You… Don't mind?"

"No." Cero answered as he lay the end of the blanket over her shoulders, and wrapped his arms around her. "It's normal, I think. Being awkward sometimes."

"Yeah?"

"Yeah."

"Alright…" Raya whispered as she brought her knees closer. "I guess that's true."

His hands lay on her stomach.

"Do you want to talk about yesterday?"

"Hm…?"

"Anything you want to talk about? In relation to… You know… How it went?"

Raya's hands lay on his. She let more of her weight rest on him.

"No, nothing in particular." Raya's lips curled upwards as she slowly closed her eyes. "I'm still not into tentacle stuff, if that's what you're referring to." She chuckled.

"Not what I was referring to, but it is noted."

It didn't take long for Raya to feel his chin rest on her head.

"I could…" She yawned. "Really sleep like this."

"We could sleep like this." He whispered.

"You wouldn't mind?"

"No." Cero answered. His eyes were closed as well. "Liz went to Roka, so everyone will start heading out soon. We still need fuel, and that will take a while. They can handle anything that comes their way. Plus, they have no reason to head into the forest. It should be fine. So yeah… We have time."

"Yes, I suppose… We do have time."

Cero's hands gently stroked Raya's arms before crossing them, holding her tighter.

"You know… You are my first, in a way."

"Your first?" Raya chuckled, enjoying his embrace. "I doubt that."

"You're the first I was close to."

"Wouldn't that be Lith?"

"We're talking about… Different types of close."

"What type of close are you talking about?"

"I'm not sure how I would describe it. I feel… Something special for you. Even though it might not be noticeable."

"Well…" Raya turned her head slightly towards him. "That's a bit corny, don't you think? Something special."

"I suppose it is a bit corny.

"Yes…" Raya yawned. "Although…" She rested her head against his chest. "I don't mind corny… In moderation."
