Talks and Decisions

Ethan parked the car in the garage, Izumi was clutching a bag tightly. "Are you sure these clothes will fit?" She asked him.

"Coco had your exact size in hand, if you're talking about if these clothes will look good on you, being these to Coco and have her help you." He handed Izumi the bag who smiled and kissed his cheek.

"Thank you sir... I'll talk to you later." Izumi kissed his cheek and walked off.

Ethan smiled as Izumi walked away. Cortana appeared and cleared her throat. "Sir there is a problem at the infirmary."

Ethan blinked, oh yeah, there was an infirmary... "What's going on?" He asked.

"Coco and Velvet were burning clothes and they Inhaled the smoke, Sakura is treating them but then Harley and Ty Lee were brought in because they tried to jump into the pool from the rooftop." Cortana told him. "They're okay, just some fractures."

Ethan stayed silent before he made his way to the infirmary.

It was located on the ground floor a few doors down, actually next to the gym..

Ethan entered and saw that the infirmary looked like what it was supposed to be, no surprise, but on the beds of said infirmary were Harley and Ty Lee. Sakura was using medical ninjutsu to heal them with an annoyed look. She wore a doctor's coat over her regular outfit.

"Just wait until he gets back." She grumbled.

"Oh don't worry your pink head, we'll be fine before he..." Harley stopped when she saw Ethan standing there.

"... From the roof, really?" Ethan asked in a disappointed tone.

"W-we were just trying to see if we could do it!" Ty Lee tried to defend herself.

"And how off was your aim from the pool?" Ethan raised an eyebrow.

"... A foot off..." Harley pouted.

"... Sakura?" Ethan looked at the medic.

"They'll be fine in a few moments, just some fractures on the tail bone and twisted ankle." Sakura explained without any malice in her voice, she was too annoyed with these two idiots.

"Just make sure you heal them enough for the wounds to heal, if they're sore, leave it." Ethan said.

"But sweetie!" Harley whined.

"No buts except yours on your own bed." Ethan glared lightly.

Sakura stopped her healing. "There, now go on, you can walk." Sakura waved them off.

The duo pouted and got up, flinching, they walked out with limps.

"... They need to learn their lesson." Ethan said.

"I agree, stupidity is very hard to cure." Sakura took a rag and wiped her forehead. "Coco was here, she was burning shirts by the driveway, apparently she was doing a good deed for fashion." Sakura rolled her eyes.

"At least she's okay." Ethan sighed, the two stayed silent after that. Ethan wondered if she was still bitter with him, he decided not to push his luck today and was about to leave.

"You really care for us... Don't you?" Sakura asked softly.

"Yeah." Ethan turned to her as she asked that.

"... I'm still skeptical of you but... You have given us a lot... Heck, I figure most slaves don't live in luxury." Sakura rubbed her shoulder, Ethan walked over and slowly hugged her from behind, she didn't recoil from his embrace.

"... Why did you have to be so generous?" Sakura mumbled softly as she rubbed her head against his neck, he could smell her cherry blossom shampoo.

"Hmmm because I wanted to." Ethan responded as Sakura turned to him, her green eyes filled with hesitation.

Ethan took the step and kissed her lips. Sakura took a moment to return the kiss, she caressed his cheek softly and hummed.

He pulled away slowly and brushed her pink hair. "So does that mean you don't hate my guts?" He asked.

"... No I don't." She sighed with a small smile. "You're a really good kisser." She commented.

"... Wanna keep going?" He asked softly.

Sakura bit her lip. "No sex, not yet." She whispered.

"Make out it is." He kissed her again, this time Sakura returned the kiss eagerly, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him closer.

They made out until Sakura was fully satisfied.

Ethan was in his room on his phone, he was on the RealDreams site, ordering two characters.

He saw that he would have enough left over from the prize money that he got from the Tournament.

Ai Hoshino, the idol who's life was taken way too soon.

And her daughter Ruby Hoshino, the reincarnated girl.

He ordered them both, but they would arrive days apart, Ai was gonna be a real issue, her mental state was not the best, a person who lied by default and was not sure about feelings of love until her untimely ****.

Harley would really need to do her magic on AI... She was a beautiful idol and deserved a better life.

Now for her daughter Ruby, this would be the older version.

He saw what happened to her later in the manga and safe to say that he would buy the version before that happened.

Aqua... Well it would be really awkward and the boy might just try and kill him.

So Ethan just opted for mother and daughter.

Placing his order, he looked at his wishlist and bit his lip.

Maybe later, he had to make sure that Ai and Ruby felt welcome here.

Two days from now Ai would arrive, he already had two rooms ready.

Time check on Wednesday.

He got up and walked to the elevator, heading to the 2nd floor, he got off and made his way to Wednesday's room, he knocked on her door and waited for her to give him permission to come in.

Silence. He frowned and knocked again, no answer.

He sighed and grabbed the door handle and opened the door.

Wednesday was on the bed reading a book. "If I do not answer, it means I do not wish to to be bothered." Wednesday said in a cold tone.

"Well next time answer with that instead of being silent." Ethan snipped back with a small frown.

"What do you want?" She asked as she looked up from her book.

"I wanted to check up on you." Ethan told her.

"You can do that with your device easily." Wednesday responded.

"That reminds me, why not use that phone I gave you?" Ethan asked.

"I did use it, I sent requests for items that I would like to decorate my room with, I will admit, technology has its uses, but I won't become a **** to it."

"What about TV?" He mentioned to the television in her room.

"Nothing interesting." Wednesday immediately denied.

"..." Ethan took the remote and turned on the TV, Wednesday looked up, Ethan changed the channel to a show where people were confronting their fears.

"... What's this?" Wednesday asked.

"Fear factor, they resurfaced after RealDreams became a thing and there were new things to be afraid off." Ethan responded.

"... Very well, it's interesting to see them squirm." Wednesday put her book down.

"Want me to keep you company?" Ethan asked.

She looked at him. "Feeling more secure?"

"Better since I've given you the collar and injection." Ethan smirked.

".... Very well." She moved and allowed Ethan to sit next to her, she sat still as they watched fear factor, a person was screaming because they were putting their hands in a box full of non deadly spiders.
