"So Eiji and I will be heading to the highway tomorrow to bring back supplies if they are still in the trailers of the cargo trucks." Ai announced. She had called a meeting to let everyone know what she was planning. "After that, Eiji and I will head back to the bunker with a cargo truck trailer in tow. And we will completely clean that out. Then depending on the weather, I may have Mai come with us as we go to the ports and get shipping containers. Not only will some of the containers have supplies, but we can use them to build our base up, so we are not just hiding underground. Any thoughts on this or anyone against it?"
"No, I think this is a great idea. After the past few attacks, we have been stuck with mainly destroyed buildings. I fear before long; they will break into this section. If we really can rebuild this place, I am all for it." Mai answered excitedly. She had been hoping they could do something like this now that Ai was superhuman.
"I'm all for it too." Yoshi said with a big smile.
"Umm... I for that, but on a side note, Ai is there any way..." Shogo went to ask Ai if he could stop his special training only to quickly shut his mouth when Ai gave him a death glare.
"You will continue until you can keep your little buddy from sprouting. Mai, take care of your dog, please." Ai said coldly.
*Pfft!*
Beside her, Eiji couldn't hold back his laughter. He found Ai's way of talking to be highly amusing. But he soon found him laughing, was not such a good idea. "Your no different, Eiji. Your little buddy is always sprouting. I worry for your future."
"Ahem… Err… Ai, this is not my fault with how you tease me." Eiji tried to defend himself only to see Ai smile at him and reach over and flick his forehead. "Me teasing you is because it is fun. Do you not like it?"
The way she licked her lips and put her hand on his thigh made Eiji want to cry. Seeing Eiji in such a state made Shogo feel a bit more relaxed. He was lucky Mai was not doing such things to him.
Yoshi just let out a laugh saying: "Must be good to be young!" While Mio blushed. The two girls, on the other hand, were busy snacking away on the treats Mio made, not caring for anything else.
"Now, last but not least, Yoshi, I am sure Mai told you what I said." Ai stopped teasing Eiji and went back to being serious.
"Yeah, I have no problem with it, but it is not up to me how far it goes." Yoshi said warily. He still felt a bit uncomfortable about it all, but it was an order, and he was under Ai's command.
"Mmm… I see. Then..." Ai turned to Mio, who was looking at Yoshi confused. "Mio, I did not bring you here to save your life. I am sure you realize that, right?"
"Huh? Ah… I think so..." Mio blushed.
"That's good then. Yoshi is a good guy. He will treat you right. So make sure you help with all his needs, do you understand?" Normally Ai would just bluntly say, 'you two are to fuck', but she held back with the two young girls around.
"Mmm… I-I understand." Mio blushed ear to ear. She never thought she would be put in a situation where she would basically be forced into a relationship with someone. But she also did not want to leave this place. She knew Ai would not hesitate to toss her out to die. She also found Yoshi was very nice. So she was not completely against a relationship with him. She decided to think of it as a prearranged marriage.
"Good, it is good we are all on the same page. Mai, Yoshi, the barrier will keep any attacks that are not from beam weapons from passing through it. Do not touch the pile of parts being dried under cover by the shelter door. They may still be radioactive. Eiji and I will head out tomorrow and will not come back until the next day. I plan to come back with more than two or three trailers. That is it for this meeting." Ai said as she stood up and stretched. She then grabbed Eiji's hand and pulled him with her as she left the meeting room.
"Sigh, those two." Mai shook her head and then looked at Shogo and frowned before walking out of the room. Shogo felt gloomy as he followed after Mai.
All that was left in the room was Yoshi and Mio and the two girls. "Listen, Mio… I'm sorry, Ai is pushy… If you do not want this, just tell me, and I will speak to Ai..."
"No, it's fine. I do not mind, actually. I like this place and do not wish to have to leave. Plus, Yoshi, you are not a bad guy, so if it's you, I do not think I will mind..." Mio said, blushing from ear to ear while fidgeting. "So tonight, ummm… I will become yours..."
Yoshi was surprised to hear Mio say that. He had thought she would be crying. But she accepted it so easily. He reached over and placed his hand on hers. She smiled and gripped his hand. The two just sat in silence, holding each other's hand while waiting for the girls to finish their snacks.
Ai dragged Eiji back to her room and closed the door. She turned and faced him, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed his lips. She let go of his hand and threw her arms around his neck as she deepened the kiss. After a few minutes of their saliva mixing together, Ai finally broke the kiss and smiled. "That is my apology for teasing you so much."
