"Is it?" Zaeryn teased, shifting slightly beneath her. "Feels like we're bonding."
"W-what?" Yuna was at a loss for words. Her cheeks turned even more red.
"Yuna! Finish him or get off him!" Zelda's voice cut through the bubble, sharp and impatient.
Yuna squeaked, scrambling off him so fast she almost tripped over her own feet. She stood up, smoothing her uniform frantically, unable to meet his eyes.
"I… I win," she mumbled to the floor, her ears burning red.
Zaeryn sat up, watching her with a genuine smile. She was lethal, but she was also impossibly cute. "Yeah," he said softy, getting to his feet and dusting himself off. "You definitely win."
Almost immediately, the buzzer blared through the Aegis Chamber, signaling the end of the session.
Zaeryn slumped back against the smart-foam barrier, chest heaving.
"Okay," he panted, looking over at Yuna.
