Chapter 7 by TheSpectator TheSpectator

What do you do now?

I'm going to sleep until morning.

You woke up the following day. Delilah is beside you, still asleep and resting, tuckered out from her first time. You could lay there for a while, but instead, you sigh and roll off the bed, getting ready for the next bounty. You prepare for the likely complex contract ahead and leave her a note.

...

...

As predicted, the contract was complicated. You felt distracted this time - worried about getting injured or captured. Perhaps getting sexually involved with the barmaid wasn't such a good idea. You had spent a lot of casual time with her, but now that you've become intimate with her, it felt like you could actually hurt her by taking an unexpected leave. You've never frozen as many times as you did that morning, and you even considered just turning in early when the situation got violent.

When you returned to the tavern, it was late in the evening, and the bar area was crowded with people, locals, and travelers alike. You found an empty stool, took a seat and ordered a drink. You sat hollowed-eyed on the chair for a bit before returning to your room. On your journey there, however, you run to someone that was much desired...Wearing a green dirndl, Delilah bumps into you, nearly dropping her tray full of drinks. At first, she starts shouting, unaware that it's you.

"Watch where you're going, you assho--!?" your eyes meet. Delilah laughs and finds balance. "Uuh, hiya! I- glad to see you again!"

You smile in return and take a few steps back. You remark about her tray, trying hard not to mention the night before. There's no reason for you to make her blush or become self-conscious. She's obviously busy, so you try to retreat, but she reaches out and pulls on your sleeve.

"Hey!" Delilah chirps, keeping your attention on her. She blinks and smiles to herself as she looks away briefly. "I...I was going to the hot springs after work, around evening..."

Truth be told, you could, but you could also spend the night alone to unwind and relax. Of course, you can't let yourself get too distracted...Can you?

What do you do?
