Wonderful Women and a Delicious Dinner

The snippets of conversation you hear through the door send a smile across your face, a thoroughly relieved grin that seems to relax every muscle in your body. All throughout the day you could feel your stress build, from your meeting with the sisters of disaster to the rather mysterious and explosive introduction of your new ‘secretary’ everything had felt as if it you were swiftly traveling to hell in a hand basket…and then there was Lilynette and Coyote. From the sounds the two hadn’t changed and for some odd reason you were looking forward to it, their eccentric personalities setting your own at ease even without even being to see them. Raising your hand rap your knuckles a few times on the door in quick succession, a quiet eep sounding from inside of the home as you softly call out, “Lily-chan, Coyote-chan? Are you here?”

Your ears are quickly filled with the sound of feet thundering across a floor and…was that the sound of a scuffle? Standing in front of the door you lean in ever so slightly, listening closely as you hear whispers behind the wooden frame, “Get out of here you lazy bitch, I’m answering it!”

“But Lily,” the sound of Coyote’s lyrically exhausted tone quickly begins to argue with the much more edgy and active tone of Lilynette, “You answered last time, it’s my turn.”

“You’ve done nothing all day but stir a pot and pick at the food with your fingers,” Lily hisses, the sound of the doorknob rattling slightly as a hand grabs it from the other side, “you lost the privilege!”

“I did not just stir,” Coyote’s surprisingly heated voice sounds, the rattling on the door ceasing at the taller girls tone, “if it wasn’t for me you would have burned half of the meal!”

Deciding that, as amusing as it was the joke had gone on for far enough and you noisily clear your throat, “Hm, well I guess of they aren’t in I think I’ll go home~”

The door is instantly thrown open by both of the girls, Lily and Coyote giving you a look of pouting fear as they speak in perfect tandem, “No wait! Don’t go John!”

You chuckle softly, offering the pair your soothing smile as you speak, “I promised I never would, didn’t I?” Seeing the pair’s face heat up with a soft blush you can’t help but smile just a bit wider, “may I come in?”

“Please do!” They speak in tandem, both of them stepping out of the way so as to allow you passage into their humble abode.

“Thank you,” you say with honest thanks and appreciation, you body stepping into the home as the pair closes and locks the door behind you, “So what’s for dinner my dearest Coyote-chan and Lily-chan?”

“N-Nothing too special,” Lily blushes deeply as your eyes turn to her, her own visible eye avoiding yours the best she can as she quietly mumbles, “j-just something we thought you’d like.”

“Well then I can’t wait to try it,” you say with a smile, “I bet it’s delicious.”

“Why don’t you ask Coyote,” Lily mutters quietly into the silence, “she ate half of it.”

“Lilynette,” Coyote growls quietly, her hands balled up into lose fists as she glares at the smaller girls, “don’t even start.”

“Yes, please don’t,” You add in, exhaspiration so thick in your voice that both of the girls turn to you with worry, “I’ve had more than enough fights and stress today.”

“Will you tell us John?” Coyote asks with worrisome hesitancy in her voice, her wonderfully warm chocolate brown orbs looking over your body from head to toe, “Is there any way we can help?”

Chuckling a bit you step over to Coyote, leaning in and giving the tall and lanky girl a soft kiss on the lips, “At dinner my lovely Coyote-chan, I’m starving.”

As Coyote’s face blushes a dark tomato red you turn to face Lilynette, the shorter blond haired girl crossing her arms in a huff at your apparent affection with the brown haired beauty Coyote, “Hmph, well let’s get dinner started.”

Just as Lily is about to leave you reach out and gently grab her arm, pulling her back and spinning her in your arms until you are face to face, “Ah, ah, ah Lily-chan. Not until I give you this first.” Lily appears ready to protest for a moment but the second your lips land upon her own she quickly melts into your embrace, her arms loosely wrapping around your body with a loving hold.

A few moments later and you find yourself seated at a small roundish dining room table, a lovely meal set out before you and the two girls. Unsurprisingly enough much of the meal appears to be comprised chiefly of meat, various forms of cooked animal and flesh set out along side what appears to be different types of rice and vegetables.

As you begin to fill a modest plate for yourself you hear coyote’s sleepy and worried voice call out from over the variable mountain of food she has on her own plate, “So John…what has you so stressed today?”

Chuckling a bit you sit back in your chair, your arms crossing lightly over your chest as you speak, “Well let’s see…first I woke up with Tia-chan who insisted we have a few more ‘rounds’ of ‘training’ before breakfast so by the time I had something to eat I was starving. Then halfway through the meal Bossman calls a meeting for us all…thank god it was short and no one acted like an ass through it all. Then after the meeting I have by the terror twins, Loly and Menoly, which only ends with me putting them to bed by the end of it…and then…oi, and then the real stressful part of my day.”

Despite both Lilynette and Coyote blushing/glaring during your mention of your ‘time’ with Tia they both listen with enraptured attention, both of them cocking their heads in tandem as they ask, “What happened then?”

With a heavy sigh you shrug your shoulders, “I really wish I could explain it but apparently SOMETHING picked up a Shinigami and transported her…and right into my room.”

“What!” Lilynette and Coyote exclaim in surprise, both of them jumping up from the table and shouting in perfect synchronization, “She didn’t attack you did she?!”

“Calm down girls,” you say with a reassuring smile and the slight pangs of a headache throb at the back of your skull, “everything is fine, really…it’s just her introduction to the rest of the group wasn’t exactly the warmest.”

After a bit more reassurance and convincing, particularly of Lily-chan, to not go out and gut her like a fish the three of you return to dinner, Coyote once more chowing down on her plate in-between asking you questions, “What happened when this Shinigami showed up John?”

With a hefty sigh and a roll of your eyes you shake your head, “Well, apparently she started to lose her shit and went about attacking all of the others out of fear…in my own bedroom.”

Despite her best attempts to hold it in Lilynette snickers a bit, her icy blue eye turning to you as she shoves a forkful of food into her mouth, “so let me guess, she destroyed it huh John?”

Nodding you take a bit of your own delicious meal, “Knocked out Saru-chan, Hebi-chan, and Bee-chan too…she’s a pretty powerful spitfire apparently.”

“So what happened to her?” Coyote questioned, a healthy helping of food hanging on the end of her fork as she speaks, “did you kill her?”

You shake your head, a smirk working its way over your face as your speak, “No, apparently she’s in love with me…been for a while too if what she said is the truth.”

The looks you get from Lily and Coyote are obviously skeptical, both of them raising their eyebrows at your trusting nature as Lily speaks, “You honestly believed her too?”

You nod a bit, “yeah I did, she didn’t seem like she was lying and every chance that she could have had to attack me she never took. Besides…” your voice goes down in pitch slightly as you speak your next part, “She kind of sounded like Coyote-chan when I was talking to her…really lonely you know?”

Your words seem to hit home and the girls instantly understand where you are coming from, wordless acceptance of your decision registering with them as they nod. The rest of the dinner is spent with idle chit chat and general happiness, the conversation stimulating and the times good until at last all of the food is gone and you are just shooting the breeze with the girls.

“Ah, dinner was delicious and a blast,” you say with a bright and charming smile, “I really should come over here more often!”

“Damn straight you better Johnny,” Lily says with a small smirk, her one eye winking at you as she grins.

“We’ll get really mad at you if you don’t John,” Coyote says with a sleepy smile, a twinkle of love in her eye as she gazes into your own.

A bit more conversation later and you slowly rise from the table, you arms stretching high into the air as you speak, “Well ladies it’s been fun but I think I should be going back, gotta check what my ‘secretary’ decided to do with everyone.”

“Really?” Lilynette speaks up, a note of disappointment in her voice as she does so, “Do you have to?”

Smirking a bit you glance from Lilynette to Coyote, both of them looking up at you with looks of love and lust melted perfectly together, “I dunno…never know what hell Grim can cause Nanao-chan without me there~”

“John,” Coyote says as she stands up from the table, her smooth and flawless body striding over to you with a brilliant blush on her face, “At least…join us for a drink of sake?”

“I don’t know,” you whisper huskily in response, the corner of your lips quirking up in a small grin, “it has been quite a while since my last drink with a beautiful woman let alone two…I don’t know if I could handle the temptation.”

Lilynette takes the initiative to walk up to your other side, her smaller body swaying sensually as she takes a hold of your other arm, “you don’t have to handle the temptation John, just us…”
