The sound of heavy breathing filled the room. There were feelings of panic and fear coming from within.

Another nightmare...

"Shigure! Shigure! Wake up!"

Hah! Hah! No! Please!" (Shigure)

"Shigure! " (Yuudachi)

I'm trying to shake Shigure awake. I know she gets nightmares from time to time, but it has never been so bad that Yuudachi would come rushing to me for help.

"Please... Don't leave me..." (Shigure)

Tears came out of her closed eyes. She is suffering.

I pulled Shigure up and hugged her tightly, stroking her head at the same time.

"I'm with you. Everyone's with you. We won't ever leave you."

"Shigure..." (Yuudachi)

Yuudachi placed one hand on her shoulder.

After a while, it looked as though our feelings got through. Shigure breathing started returning to normal. She was no longer trembling and is sleeping soundly.

"She is all right now."

"That's great. Shigure wouldn't wake up no matter how hard I tried poi. Thank you, Admiral-san!" (Yuudachi)

I pet Yuudachi a bit.

"You did the right thing in calling for me. Good job."

"Ehehe. Fu~ah..." (Yuudachi)

I gently placed Shigure back down on her bed.

"Go back to sleep. I'm going back as well."

"Admiral-san, sleep with us poi!" (Yuudachi)

"I can't. When Shigure wakes up in the morning, she will get a shock. Besides the bed is too small for the three of us."

The beds in the dorm are double-decker beds. Knowing Yuudachi, she won't stay on her own bed and would want to squeeze together with us on the same bed.

Yuudachi puffed her cheeks.

"Now then, I will go back to my room now."

I tried to get up but felt something pulling me back. I look down to check and realised that Shigure was holding my hand. At first it was gentle, but when I tried to get up, she would tighten her grip, as if she knew I was going away.

"See. Even Shigure wants to sleep with Admiral-san poi!" (Yuudachi)

I don't have a choice, do I?

"Fine. But how are you going to sleep? You won't want to sleep on the top alone, right?"

"Hehe. Like this poi." (Yuudachi)

Shigure's spot is nearer to the wall, her hand still holding onto mine. I took the side nearer to the edge and Yuudachi laid right on top of me.

"Heavy..."

"That's mean poi! Yuudachi is not heavy poi!"

"Mng..." (Shigure)

"Shh... You are too loud."

It's dark, but I can tell Yuudachi is happy with this arrangement. Since Yuudachi is this close, I just noticed there is a sweet smell coming from her.

"Admiral-san's smell. It's so relaxing poi." (Yuudachi)

And just like that, she fell asleep on top of me.

It seems that Yuudachi was doing the same thing as me. But really, what's up with these shipgirls sniffing me and relaxing afterwards?

Ah whatever. If that's what makes them relaxed. I should probably get some sleep too. Now that Yuudachi is this close to me, I can feel them touching me. They are pretty soft. So this is what it feels like. In manga, there is always, if not most of the time, this scene where the busty girl will go so close to the boy that her chest touches a part of his body, and then he will make that weird pervy smile. Am I making that face now? Maybe not.

The warmth and smell coming from Yuudachi is quite pleasant as well. It's making me sleepy...

------------------------------------------

--The next morning, along the hallway--

Yeah, I'm still a little tired after last night. I woke up many time because Yuudachi was moving around in her sleep. Shigure was also surprised after waking up to find herself in that awkward arrangement.

Oh. Speak of the devil.

"Shigure, how are you feeling?"

Shigure turned around to face me.

"Ah Admiral. I'm fine. Thank you. For staying with me." (Shigure)

"That's good. Sorry if i scared you just now."

"Oh, no. It must have been hard to sleep with Yuudachi on top of you." (Shigure)

"A little. Anyway,"

I stroked Shigure's head.

"feel free to tell me if there are any problems. I'll see what I can do."

Shigure grabbed my hand, which was still on her head.

"Yes!" (Shigure)

I'm still a little sleepy. Maybe I go sneak in a nap later on.
