Elder Blood Witcher 417 Advances

At the end of the Ball Reima finds himself sitting outside on a stone bench holding the waists of Fleur and Ciri while watching people walk back to their dorms... Sometimes together and sometimes not, though he could spot Snape kicking carriages that happened to be "rocking", generally it was a feminine scream that'd signal just who was inside but occasionally two masculine shouts would be heard. The trio actually had a bet on how many carriages would contain h.o.r.n.y teens trying to get it on. Reima had bet that most of them would have people inside while Ciri had bet that half, Fleur herself made the same bet as him so it was them against Ciri..

Snape had a prominant scowl on his face as he continued interupting the intimate time of these "lovers", eventually it was Reima and Fleur who won the bet as they were closest to the outcome... Though they hadn't bet anything which was a problem.

After another half an away drifts by Fleur gives Ciri a look to which she nods.

Ciri "I'll be waiting in "our" room..." she says before leaving with Snuffles in hand.

Reima didn't know what was up but he now found himself alone with Fleur who seemed to be twitching uncomfortable while giving him a predatory look. "Is something wrong Fleur?" he asks.

Fleur shakes her head, "Non... It iz just..." she stops seemingly trying to find the words to explain what she means. "I wish to ask you a question but... I will ask it after the third task.." she says.

Reima "Are you sure? I'm all ears right now." he asks as he's sure she's just drawing the question out.

She nods, instead just leaning into him and taking in his warmth. She wondered how such an aura was contained in his body but shrugged it off and simply enjoyed his presence.

Fleur "Do... Do you love me?" she asks quietly into his neck.

...

He isn't sure how to respond to that question, if he had to answer it then he'd say no but, he liked her? It's just a lesser form of love, though he was aware of the fact he and Ciri would be leaving this world soon and he didn't know whether Fleur would actually accept something like that. Additionally he wasn't even sure what he wanted with Ciri so bringing someone else would make the situation a whole lot more complicated... "I don't love you, but you're someone I value dearly" he says truthfully.

She nods at this, seemingly in relief. "I feel ze same... Back home expressing love is encouraged but I zink peeple fall for each other too fast, but somehow I cannot stop zis emotions. I feel az zoe zis ambiguous English term "Like" suits my feelings perfectly." she says before giving him a deep kiss. Aftewards she just looks up with a blush and mutters "Shall we join Ciri?"

...

Reima "Err... Yeah?" he asks, excitement and confusion beginning to inhibit his rational thoughts.

They slowly make their way to the castle, Reima feeling the Fire-Whisky kicking in as he stumbles over Fleurs and his own feet as she's attached herself to him. At this point he isn't even thinking, not wondering why he was leading Fleur to the Room of Requirement, not wondering if Ciri would be okay with what he intended to do to Fleur and maybe Ciri as well... He didn't even think about whether or not Snuffles would still be awake at this point.

They are occasionally spotted by students who're taking their time in getting back to their dorms, their surprised and incredulous faces aren't noticed by the increasingly reddening duo who are but a moment away from tearing each others clothes off.

The duo finally reach the seventh floor, they briskly walk towards the entrance to the Room of Requirements and find a door already there.

Reima looks to Fleur, feeling his emotions, or maybe his l.u.s.t bubbling to the surface. He doesn't say anything and just pushes the door open, revealing the room inside... He stops in his tracks as he sees the dimly lit hallway, further inside he sees a door labelled "Nerissa" which is closed, taking a peek inside he sees a ma.s.sive bed with a black rabbit sleeping in the middle of it... He silently closes the door and walks to the end of the hallway that holds a door that has "Christmas Present" written on it...

Fleur lets go of him, steps forward and enters the room before shutting it behind her... Reima waits for a moment before following her in, seeing the candle lit room with a ma.s.sive bed in the middle of it... Atop it lies two scantily clad women, Ciri has already got her hands trailing over Fleurs body who doesn't look uncomfortable at her actions, instead just looking at Reima with an expectant look.

Reima feels his mouth go dry as he audibly swallow, "You guys sure about this? Once it starts it won't stop..."

Ciri raises her head and her focus shifts from Fleurs body to him "Either come here or I'll have Fleur to myself."

Reima doesn't utter another word and immediately throws his clothes off and onto the floor.
