Charlotte walks the hall with Aroth. He's still a little scared after the horror movie, and she can understand why; it really did look real, and some of the imagery was rather gruesome. Was it so scary she absolutely HAD to be by his side as he went back to his dorm? Probably not, but she didn't mind. Aroth was nice, and cute, and cool, and a little bit out of her league. She was aware she didn't have a chance with him; after all, if even a demon princess wasn't enough for him, how could she ever hope to meet his standards?

"We're here," Aroth says, opening the door to his dorm. "I'll...uh, see you later, I guess?"

"Ah, but I'm a little scared too!" Her red side says. "I'm not sure I can make it to my dorm by myself either."

That's a lie, of course. Charlotte used her blue side as a social crash test dummy. Most people somewhat understand how Anbies work, but that doesn't stop them from treating each body as a separate entity. Charlotte willingly plays into that, using her red side as the hotheaded 'little sister' while using her blue side as the rational, smart blue side. That way, if she says something wrong, she can call out her red side as being wrong, even though they're both the same person. It's a little deceiving, but Charlotte isn't very good with people, and she thought it was a smart way to know what people liked to hear.

So, if Aroth reacts negatively and says, 'You can walk to your dorm yourself', then her blue side can slap the back of Red's head and say, 'Of course, don't worry about us'.

"Ah... s-sorry, but then I have to come back to my dorm in the dark and uhm... sorry, maybe you could sleep here? I have a sleeping bag somewhere, i-if you want, of course."

"Sure!" her red side says. "I don't mind sleeping on the ground, but if you only have one sleeping bag, maybe one of us could use your bed? It's not weird if it's only one of our bodies!"

Blue prepares herself to retort, but first she waits for Aroth's answer. It's a stupid proposal, one he'll refuse of course, but-

"I...I guess? I'd feel bad making you sleep on the floor, we can, uhm, keep ourselves to each side of the bed."

This is when Charlotte's mind starts going wild.

I AM SCORING TONIGHT! IN A GUY'S ROOM, IN HIS BED, IN OTHER THINGS!

Let's calm down. He surely didn't mean anything by it. I'll stay on his side of the bed, and not make any assumption.

Come on! Surely it means something, right? Surely he wouldn't let me in his bed if he didn't expect something to happen, right?

I phrased it as if letting me sleep on the ground would be painful, he's just trying to help, he's nice, it's his thing.

"Err, Charlotte?" Aroth ushers Charlotte inside, and present the sleeping bag. "Which one of you should get in my bed- I-I mean, uhm, for sleeping, as you said, of course."

"Me," her blue side says. "My red side can get a little out of control, I wouldn't want to make you uncomfortable."

"Ah, uh, sure, that makes sense."

IN A GUY'S BED IN A GUY'S BED IN A GUY'S BED.

Keeping the blue side near him means I'll be able to keep a poker face no matter what happens. All I need to do is transfer any overwhelming emotion back to red, and I might be able to pull this off, and then... one step at a time, I suppose.

Blue picks up the book she always keeps around. She doesn't even pay attention to the book half the time, she just uses it as an excuse as to why she lets her other side 'slip up', since the book makes it look like she's distracted.

There's an uncomfortable silence as Charlotte realizes she has no idea how to progress past that point. She's in the same bed as him, but there's no physical contact, no opportunity, she might as well be sleeping on the floor with her other side. For the first time, she attempts to make a risky move using her blue side.

She starts to undress.

"Sorry, it's just a little hot. It's just one body though, so it's not that weird."

That's a bold faced lie, this would absolutely be weird even within Anbee culture, but even her rational side will occasionally make dumb decision just to satisfy her desires. It's fine because it's safe, right? If nothing happens, then they can keep on being friends like normal, and if something does happen...

She gets lightheaded at the thought, transffering those feelings to her red side. It's necessary, Charlotte needs to act as if this is totally normal and that it's something natural to do, otherwise he might think she's some sort of freak or something.

"Ah, err, sorry Charlotte it's just- it's a little weird in demon culture for erm, an undressed girl next to a guy, even if it's just one of your body- Honestly, I think it's just weird in most cultures. N-No offense."

I'M KILLING MYSELF.

It's fine, I can turn this around. As long as I have tact and answer respectfully, nothing bad will happen.

"I understand, I'll put my clothes back on, then."

"I- I mean, I understand it's hot right now, so you can keep being undressed if you want. It's just like, uhm, it's like if a demon girl said it was normal to touch her horn, and then she made a guy touch her horn, and it'd be weird because he doesn't know that it's weird right? It's like taking advantage of his ignorance, so uhm, I just wanted to let you know, that's all."

Wait isn't taking advantage of his ignorance exactly what I'm doing.

It's not like I'm touching myself to it. I'm not forcing him to do anything he's not comfortable with either, I think it's morally correct.

Wait, would he know if I touched myself on the red side? He totally wouldn't.

I'm not doing that, he's treating us with respect, and the least I can do is not abuse his trust. Even if... it would help get rid of unwanted feelings, it's not...worth it.

"So, uh..." Aroth starts a conversation again. "D-Does it make you uncomfortable that I'm wearing clothes or... I-I mean, it feels a little uneven, It's p-pretty warm for me too, so I was just wondering if-"

"Sure, you can undress too, I don't mind," blue replies casually as she dumps even more sexual tension to her other self. There is however, an unfortunate side effect to putting all your unwanted feelings to one side for an extended period of time, and it's that it makes those emotions unbalanced and hard to control, and since it's on her emotional side, it ends up making her wriggle in her sleeping bag like a worm as she desperately tries to stop herself from advancing things too fast or touching herself innapropriately.

THIS IS TORTURE. PLEASE. LET'S JUST TELL HIM WE WANT TO FUCK. I DON'T CARE IF HE REJECTS US I JUST WANT TO GET THIS OVER WITH.

That's too forward, Aroth is a delicate person, so let's just take things slow and-

"Charlotte, are you okay? You look troubled. S-Sorry, was undressing too much? I'll just-"

"No!" Blue blurts out. "It's fine! I was just- I was just- wondering if- I mean why- are your horns considered- err, weird, right? I- is it like hair, or haha, you know, just curious!" She starts losing her composure as the feelings flows back into her. This was a terrible idea, she should've just went back to her dorm, but she just had to push her luck like she always does. Stupid stupid Charlotte.

"I-It has a lot of nerve endings, and since it's so close to the brain, it can trigger some of the parts that demons associate with pleasure. Do you ... I-I mean, if you really want to, you can touch them, as- as long as you're not going too hard it shouldn't... you know, make me feel anything. It's just, you're staring at it so often, and you often ask what the texture's like so, err, just this one time..."

What.

Okay, let's calm down, he's just being nice-

Shut the fuck up and grab his horns.

And she does. Slowly, gently, she tries to not make it weird, she really does, but...

She presses the endpoint of the horn, and he moans. He closes his eyes in shame, but he's not telling her to stop either.

"It's not weird, since it's just one body, right?" Blue says, and Aroth gives a weak nod.

Okay so we're just making shit up now.

She caresses his horn from multiple side, and despite the fact she never found the horn inherently erotic, the expression he makes when she plays with it absolutely are. Press, pull, further, she lightly bites it, and another lewd noise escape him. She can't contain herself anymore, and she goes for a kiss, then another, then another. With each one she goes a little bit further down, but that means her hands can't keep hold of his horns with the distance, which means...

"W-Wait, isn't it weird if it's the two of you?"

Her red side shuts him up with a twist of his horns. She starts to undress too, smothering him in her modest breasts. "Shut up, you know you like it."

"I- I don't-"

She lets go of his horn in a display of cruelty. It only takes a few seconds for him to give in and beg for her to continue. She wasn't thinking rationally anymore, as that side was a little busy downstairs, so she was free to act out her weirdest desires without that part of her shaming her for it.

She takes off her panties and sits on his face. As shy as he is, even he understands what he has to do. She uses his horns to make him sing to her tune, everytime he slows down, she pulls harder. The pleasure shoots through her like jolts of electricity, and she climaxes before her other body.

No, that's hardly enough, she's not satisfied at all. Charlotte makes her body swap spot, making sure she can get the full experience from all sides. It's a surprise he hasn't cum yet, and she's honestly a little peeved about this. She's putting in more work than usual, massaging every side of him until he explodes in her mouth. It's so much that even with her mouth closed, it manages to drip down to her breasts and the rest of her body. He must have really been pent up if he let out that much.

Her other side is satisfied too, but she wants the full FULL experience, so she kisses herself, spitting as much cum as she can to her blue side. When she's done making out with herself, she swallows in sync. It is quite funny how despite Anbees having a very negative view on homosexuality, kissing yourself is considered pretty normal, it's basically just masturbation.

She looks back to Aroth, and it seems as if Charlotte's display made him hard again. Except that now, both Charlotte and him are regaining their senses, and have to deal with the aftermath of their impulsive actions.

"I...uh..." Aroth tries to form the right words, but he's speechless.

"Sorry," her blue side says.

"It's fine," Aroth replies, hiding his face behind his blanket.

"I shouldn't have-"

"It's fine. Can you please just... not tell anyone?"

"Do you want to keep it casual or...?"

Aroth shakes his head. "I just don't want people to think I'm depending on a girl, or that I'm 'giving myself' to the first girl that's a little bit nice to me, you know? I don't mind going out with you, you're nice, it's just... with the princess, and everything, can we just pretend we're still friends for a little while?"

Charlotte is dissapointed, but not too surprised. "I understand. What do we do if anyone finds out, though?"

"I...I guess we can say it was a recent thing. Sorry, I know I'm asking for a lot."

"I don't care that much if i'm your friend or your girlfriend. I like talking to you, and I think you're cool, so as long as we get to spend time together, I'm alright with it."

He blushes, it's adorable. "I-I'd like to spend more time with you too."

Now it's her turn to blush. They spend the rest of the night talking about nothing and everything, and for the first time in their lives, they felt truly safe with someone else.
