Chapter 24

The ending to the night was quicker than I thought possible, although we had been here for hours I wish there was more… Well, at least of the nice things, I don't want to see Zel crying in distress again tonight, even if she doesn't remember any of it… Was the game able to do such things… or was it that Zel was just… overpowered by the feelings being shown to her? Either way it worries me…

There are other things to talk about and hopefully we can speak about it more later “Have you traveled by Axi-Rail before Keeks moo?” She looks back up at me with milk all over her face and nods, bits of it dripping into my lap.

“Yeah I’ve done it tons, I used to have to travel a lot with my sister, really helped when those got built since we didn't have to sail across the sea’s anymore! Uhh not that I didn't enjoy it, getting to be a pirate you know, but like, 5 hours of travel is always going to be better than 2 months at sea just to like, move to a new place where you won't know anyone, you know nye?”

“That sounds really rough Keeks, sucks that you had to do that moo…” She shrugs and pulls my dress up to her face and I can only stare as she rubs all the milky ice cream goodness onto my new dress that I had to pay with my sore ass. “Yeah you just lost all pity from me with that one action moo!” She puts her hands up sheepishly and moves over to snuggle up with Zel.

“Hehe you shouldn't have ruined Lil’s new dress! Not that it's ruined I guess, it's a game so it should be easily clean-up-able! I can't protect you from her, little dummy hehe wan!” Keeks pouts and tries to make sad eyes at me.

“You wouldn't hurt poor little Keeks would you?” I take a second to think about it.

“You're right, I won't hurt poor little Keeks, even if you ask me too then.” I stick my tongue out at her and her brain seems to freeze.

“W… Wait no dammit! My disappointment reflex came in I didn't mean it like thhaattt nyyyeeee” She is hanging off Zel and clinging to me, she’s making a lot of noise and attracting a lot of attention, from the kids and Mershi in particular, her sister seems to be looking intently at us 3 and taking notes… oh no.

“Alright kids, it's time to head home, we can leave these three alone, I think they need it hahaha” Mershi is running around and pulling all the kids to their feet, once everyone is ready to go she motions to us, trying not to let the kids hear. “I'll see you in 2 days at the earliest, okay? … Please save her for me, as much as I want to go in, I cant break the rules… so please… make it count.” She bumps the three of us, one at a time on the chest gently and yells for the kids to head out.

Cali stops by us first and leans over, carefully avoiding the stain on my dress, and gives me the biggest hug she can, our horns bump a little bit and she giggles, then moves over to Zel for hugs and then Keeks, thanking her for ‘taking care of them’ Keeks fist bumps the sky and yells “No worries, just doing exactly what LilMoo told me to do nye!” And looks up at me with innocent eyes. Yes yes I'm not blaming you anymore… gods, I rub her head and she nuzzles into my hand in glee.

“Stay safe Cali, we will be back in a few days to visit yeah moo?” She nods as seriously as she can.

“For the Moostress moo!” Her girlfriend bows and then runs to catch up to everyone from the orphanage, leaving us three alone on the docks, the rest of the people dispersing around us heading for home. I look around and think to myself about those people that were singing… I think once they did the lights started, was it also the same time that Zel started zoning out… ugh that is way too much for Lilia brain, I’m sure Zel is already putting together some hypothesis or something, I’ll find a better time to talk about it tomorrow.

“It's just past midnight now… what time should we leave tomorrow?” Zel has pulled open her console and is looking up the information needed for Axi-rails. I pull up my own and Keeks does the same, all of us making them visible, “Keeks we are in the Outer Australia Region, it's pretty large but we can travel to the Sydney region and go to one of the extra big theaters, I dont think its super popular so it should be pretty sparse of people? Moo.”

“Ohh so meet in the Sydney Central region… mnn.. That's like 5 and a half hour’s travel… If we go for lunch time, we can eat beforehand and then go to the movies… oh oh uhh alright so I’ll get like 5 hours of sleep and then head over nye! Easy! Nacho can keep me company on the train and I think they have private bed sections so I’ll hire out a nice area nye~” She seems more excited than I’ve seen her, that little brain of hers spinning looking up how to get to us. She’s even more excited than when she is going to be squished.

I’m looking forward to it as well, I never really got to go out with friends apart from Alex, and even then it was more for food and to talk about our pasts, or just beat each other up for practice than to actually do what I hear everyone talk about ‘friend things.’ Seeing a movie with my Zelia and Keeks by my side and nacho of course, nothing sounds like a better day out.

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

“Ohhh theres is a Japanese bar/Sushi place I had my eye on for a special occasion in Sydney, I was thinking of secretly convincing Lilia it was her idea to choose it by like slipping mentions of it and things so that she would organize a date there for us, but this is just as good a time to do it hehe wan!” I stare agape at my little planner, her devilish nature coming out in the best of ways.

“Smooshie?! I love smooshi nye! I get Nacho to get it for me all the time, it's my favorite, damn you're good nye!” She's vibrating in excitement at all the planning and things that are going on for us all to be together, she's absolutely adorable, but the matter of what Zel just said still stands.

“You think you're so in control Zel don't you moo!” She nods and leans up to kiss me deeply, her tongue darting in and out as she enjoys me to the fullest before pulling away.

“Well, only from the shadows, you know I want to be controlled and pushed around most of all though wan!” She giggles and I feel Keeks put her arms around both of us the best she can.

“Thank you both… really… I can't wait for tomorrow, uhh I’ll send you both my personal details and things and we can figure out where to meet first thing in the morning?... For once I actually have a reason to get to sleep on time nye!” She smiles sweetly at both of us, leans in and nuzzles her face into both of ours and pulls back, small tears building in her eyes, she smiles again and presses the log out button leaving us wanting her to stay even more.

“Silly thing, didn't even let us say goodnight… I’ll send her a message through the group chat moo…”

< Sweet dreams, thank you for being our friend, can't wait to meet tomorrow so we can watch one of my favorite old films! Goodnight! >

Zel follows along with a quick goodnight and some love hearts before snuggling back into me, once again avoiding the milk stain, and looking across at the moon on the water.

“I really hope I dont fuck up tomorrow moo..” She looks up at me and shakes her head.

“How would you ‘fuck up’? Keeks obviously adores you and wants to be our friend, or more obviously but if we need to take that slow we can, and you're as pretty on the outside of the game as you are in game! You're not one of those people that changed a lot of your features, you're just a bigger cuddlier version of yourself with bitch’n horns to go with it wan!” I scrunch up my face in denial of her words and feel her lips on my chin, She makes it so damn hard to argue…

“Glossing over how I look because I sure don't feel that way… what if she just… doesn't like me in person? I mean I think she enjoyed me originally because of how good my thighs were or something, she could just think I’m idk not her… type? Of person… ugh…” Zel is looking up at me with those eyes that scream, ‘oh my little dummy’ and I recoil like a vampire to a cross. “Don't look at me like thhaattt moo!”

She smiles sweetly and gazes at me harder somehow, “Look at you like what my love?… Like I'm looking at the cutest, most adorable over-thinker in the whole wide universe? Or because we both know if she likes you for how you act now then she will in real life, it's not like the game is that much different. It shows your emotions, you can't hide how you're feeling as well in here cause it's like straight from your brain! You saw the poor thing cry as she was leaving… She really wants to be with us, as friends or otherwise! So tomorrow we are going to make the best day possible for our friend, okay wan?!” I sigh out and then smile… of course she’s right… she always is, dammit…

“Alright… yeah fine, you win moo!” I fake pout and she laughs, bends around me and slaps my ass making my whole body tense up.

“Now how about we get home and you show me that new video and I can see how badly that ass was destroyed wan!” She looks very excited to the point she’s vibrating, I can feel her desperation to see it, see my ‘display’ of bottomhood, fuck…

“Alright… I'll quickly log out and meet you at mine moo?” She smiles at me mischievously in response.

“No, tonight I want to finally try out that bedroom that I so carefully made perfect for us… in our avatars of course. I so desperately wanna give that body a try out… dont you wanna fuck me like this?...” She stares up at me, biting her lip, her beautiful fur still illuminated in the moonlight, fuck I really do, fuck…

“Only… If after we finish you come over so we can snuggle in a real bed… need to wake up next to you or it doesn't feel right…” She blushes slowly and nods, bringing our lips closer we embrace, gentle and loving, only us in the world.

“I’ll see you there my Lilia wan~” She disappears from my arms leaving me cold and wanting, the person who makes me whole.

“Log me out please moo” and I vanish into the void with her, our night awaits.
