"Wake up, sleeping beauty..."

"Nngh... What is it now?" Neru asked, blinking away sleep.

"It's almost time Miyuki left. And, you're squishing me."

"Oh shoot. Sorry," Neru said, readjusting herself.

"Yeah. Ow."

"Oh God. I'm sorry."

"It's fine, don't worry about it. Let's gather all of Miyuki's things and get her ready to go."

"I will. You stay here and get back to sleep."

"Oh, thanks, honey. I love you~"

"I love you too," Neru smiled, leaving the room with Miyuki. She packed all the things away, and soon enough Meiko came to collect her baby. Neru went back up the stairs, and walked into the bedroom.

Haku was asleep, so Neru got into bed besides her, silently, and pulled the cover over the both. She snuggled herself up to Haku, and wrapped her arm over her, nuzzling into her neck. She pulled herself close as she could, and closed her eyes. She felt Haku touch her hand. She smiled.

"Goodnight, baby. I love you."

"Neru? May I ask you something?"

"Of course you may."

"You know how much I love you. How important you are to me. I want you to stay with me forever."

"Yes?"

"Would..."

"Oh my God!"

"Will you marry me?"

"Yes! Yes! Of course! I love you so so much! Thank you!"

"Come here, you pathetic lump of lesbian."

"Oh, I love you."

"I love you more."

"Arguable. But I'll go with it."

"Hey. Wake up."

Haku opened her eyes.

"Huh? I was dreaming?"

"Yeah. You were all giggly. What were you dreaming about?"

"We were on a fancy date, and then I proposed to you."

"Oh. Damn. Well, don't get any ideas."

"Huh? You don't want to marry me?"

"Well, obviously not now. Haku, we've just started dating."

"Right. Sorry."

"Stop with your apologizing!"
