[color=fff200][i]W-what's happening?[/i][/color] Still closing her eyes and doing her best unconscious impression, Alice felt the body on top of her moved. Did Nico wake up already? If so, why didn't she hear him say anything? Nico wouldn't be like that, that's what Alice was sure about. He definitely would seem to be the type that would react in surprise when he realized he's being unconscious on top of a girl's body. However, her thought was then distracted by how the weight of a body hit her with a thud. That was painful, but Alice's mind went instead to the fact that the head now was buried on her barely there chest. She tried her best to not pout or yell in annoyance. Whatever was happening, something felt off. Alice, stuck in the uncomfortable and awkward position, now had to decide whether she should go break her pretense and yell at Nico to get off her chest, or whether she should keep it until she's sure Nico's awake for the sake of her scenario. If she's yelling to an unconscious body, she'd lose valuable relationship points that she could've gotten here, but the body's current position really made her feel uncomfortable, not to mention she couldn't just get away herself from being pinned to the ground. [color=fff200][i]Craaap, what should I do now...?[/i][/color] Of course, there's the third way of just enjoying this. Being the embrace of a pretty guy was something she's looking forward to anyway, and the situation here wasn't even non-consensual since she's kinda the one setting it up- [color=fff200][i]Oh, is he waking up?[/i][/color] [color=004b80]"Not gonna lie, usually I wait until a few dates into a relationship to get where we are right now."[/color] [color=fff200][i]Wait, wait wait a sec! That's not Nico! Uh...wait, how the hell?[/i][/color] [color=004b80]"Wait uh... What happened?"[/color] [color=fff200]"T-that's what I'm supposed to ask you, you pervert!"[/color] Alice's face reddened. She would've slapped him like the usual thing people do if her arms didn't feel like noodles now. But her mind was somewhere else right now. [color=fff200][i]Wait, how did he...how did Nico turn to Alex? Did I somehow mistook him for Nico? I mean both are hot but uh...this is awkward..[/i][/color] Despite of everything though, it was nice to feel his body's warmth in that close position. Without her cardigan or jacket, it was actually pretty cold up here, but it helped her to feel Alex's warmth better. Of course, she had to play hard to get now, and still with a reddened face, got up to both of her feet. Well, perhaps even if she didn't get Nico, Alex's route looked to be promising too. In a way, she looked forward for a time she got stuck into that kind of situation again. Perhaps next time she had to engineer it herself...? [color=fff200]"I-I'll go look for my stuffs...D-don't you dare have any dirty thought about what just happened!"[/color] [@BassDropp] [hr] Alice's legs felt wobbly. With the amount of physical activity she had subjected her body with today, it really felt like she really need to start actually doing exercises now. That could happen later though. For now, she's focusing herself on gathering her stuffs. Her luggage was left quite a way back, and it was the first thing she grabbed. Then, she focused on getting the stuffs on her smaller bag that had spilled on the chaos. Her notebook was fine aside from the torn pages, her pen was still functional. However, a look at her smartphone made her bubble in rage. What the hell? She expected that the worst case was for there to be no service here about something about the area was actually actively preventing it from being usable. In annoyance, she pocketed the now-useless device, and went to grab her now dirtied cardigan and jacket. They're too dirty for her to comfortably wear now, so she just slung them on her shoulders. That could've just potentially be it, but on her way, she noticed something interesting. She noticed a pair of glasses along the way, and realized that they belong to Nico. The frame was mostly okay, but the lenses were cracked in a few places. That made her realize to check her bag for her own glasses, and after the short relief on finding that out, she carefully picked the glasses and put it on her bag. That could prove to be useful. Right now, the thought of the trial didn't even appear on her mind. For her, she believed that she had passed it with flying colors and her assault on Varus (that mostly happened on her mind while she was knocked unconscious by accident) had ended up impressing him. Nevermind the sight of Varus still being okay and not mourning the lost of his potential descendants. Probably she deliberately pushed that sight out of her mind to keep her "victory" untarnished.
