For dinner, Helvi brought down the bird that she hunted.

Although they were having the same thing they had for lunch, it tasted completely different thanks to Theo’s expert seasoning, so they did not mind eating the same thing again.

With their stomachs full, it was certain they would have a good night’s sleep, but then…

“We only have two tents. Do you mind sharing one, Helvi and Theo?”

“Eh…!?”

Theo was completely unprepared for Xena’s question.

“M-me and Helvi?”

They lived under the same roof, but never shared the same bed.

Helvi wanted to sleep with him, but Theo was embarrassed. He assumed they would be sleeping separately that night, as usual.

“Can’t the three of you sleep in one tent…?”

Theo felt bad about wanting to hog one tent, but also felt it was the least stressful option.

“The tents aren’t that spacious, so they’re just right for two people.”

But Celia’s response shattered Theo’s hopes.

It was not like Theo detested the idea of sleeping together or anything, it was just that he felt he had to prepare himself mentally and sort out his feelings first.

(S-sleeping in the same tent as Helvi all of a sudden…! I’d be too nervous to sleep…!)

As Celia said before, the tents were not very spacious. If one of them rolled over in their sleep, their bodies would touch.

Theo was the type that rolled over in his sleep a lot.

He could hold her hand, but the thought of touching anything else…

Theo peeked over at Helvi’s body, and his face immediately felt warmer.

(Uu… I really can’t…!”)

Theo tried to hide face by facing down, and since it was already dark, Xena and Celia could not see it.

Helvi however, could not only see his face, but also read his mind.

“Hn? What’s wrong Helvi?”

“…Nothing.”

Helvi turned away, as Xena was close enough to perhaps be able to see her face becoming red, even though it was dark.

(Ah, cute…! It’s alright Theo, you can touch. It matters little if it is intentional or not. Actually, I would be happier if it was intentional… Wait, I could touch him and act as though it was an accident…!)

Both husband and wife’s faces were red, but for very different reasons.

“Theo, do you have a problem with sleeping with Helvi?”

“N-no, not a problem…! I-it’s just embarrassing…!”

“Alright. Then how about you sleep with us, like we used…”

Xena suddenly stopped, as she felt something cold on the back of her neck.

Suddenly, Helvi’s index finger was touching it. It was just a finger, but to Xena, it felt like an unsheathed blade.

“You better get ready for what comes next if you finish that sentence.”

These were the words that were whispered to Xena.

Theo and Celia could not hear them. but Celia could more or less guess what was said.

However, only the one to whom those words were meant could feel how terrifying they were.

“J-joking aside, you really should sleep with Helvi! Absolutely! You’re married, so it really is a no-brainer!”

“…Hmph, yes.”

Helvi took her finger off Xena’s neck, who finally let out a sigh of relief as she watched Helvi move towards Theo.

“I-I guess…”

“Theo, can you sleep with me?”

“Y-yes, hum, but I move a lot in my sleep…”

Said Theo embarrassingly, and Helvi did her best not say that just made things better for her.

“…I do as well, so we are the same.”

When Helvi slept, she did not move a single centimeter, but if she said the opposite… It would be easier to create ‘accidents’.

“A-alright then…”

“Fufu, you are too nervous, Theo.”

“I-I mean…”

Helvi move closer to Theo’s face, and whispered.

“We could even sleep in the same bed every night from now on.”

“…!”

Theo’s face was completely red, and Helvi looked forward to going to sleep that night with extreme excitement.

“I-I thought I was about to die…!”

“What are you doing? You know you shouldn’t upset her.”

“I’ve never felt so close to death… I think I saw my parents waving at me from heaven.”

“Your parents are alive, aren’t they?”

“Ah, that’s right, they are.”

Behind Helvi and Theo, the two women talked about Xena’s near-death experience.
