Chapter 8: Leo

"How does it look?" Tsubaki asked

"It looks great on you" Leo replied as he pulled her closer to him. Tsubaki didn't resist just nuzzled in his warm embrace.

After a while the sky slowly started getting dark, the two got up and silently walked towards the parking lot.

Getting on the bike, this time Leo decided to drive slowly so as to enjoy the silent and slow breeze. After some time, Leo felt Tsubaki wrap her arms around his neck hugging him from behind as she gently whispered,

"I loved today's date, thank you Leo"

"So I managed to successfully invade your heart"

Leo spoke smiling, as Tsubaki just nuzzled her face on his back in embarrassment while trying to hide her flushed red cheeks, as her hair gently swayed with the wind.

After that the two just enjoyed the drive in silence, as Tsubaki slowly drifted to sleep with a smile while thinking 'Maybe…it's really him'

Noticing this he used his powers to make sure she doesn't fall off or her sleep get's disturbed.

After a while Leo reached the dorms where Tsubaki and other girls of Sona's peerage and Rias's peerage stay at.

Stopping the bike he got off making sure to not disturb the still asleep Tsubaki. As he gently carried her in a princess carry and started walking towards the dorm.

Knocking on the door, soon Sona opened the door only to be surprised by the sight in front of her.

"Well she got tired and went to sleep" Leo said

Nodding Sona said "Let me help her to her room" as she tried to wake Tsubaki.

"No, let her sleep, show me her room…I'll just place her in the bed" Leo stopped Sona.

Though Sona was a bit conflicted at allowing him in the girl's dorm but seeing he wouldn't budge she finally relented as she led him to Tsubaki's room.

Entering the dorm, he noticed both Rias and Akeno were still awake and were lying around in the living room. The two also noticed him and were surprised at seeing him carrying Tsubaki like that who was hugging him tightly while sleeping calmly with a smile.

Nodding at them he followed Sona and reaching Tsubaki's room, he placed her on the bed pulling the blanket over as he switched off the lights, slowly closing the door he saw Sona looking at him in a daze.

"*ahem* I should get going then, see you tomorrow Sona" Leo said as he went downstairs, waving goodbye to Rias and Akeno he left the dorm and drove back to his house.

After he left,

"Well he is a gentleman isn't he, Ufu~ ufu~" said Akeno as she smiled mischievously thinking about teasing Tsubaki later on.

"Yes, I didn't expect him to drop Tsubaki back home without taking any advantage of her" Rias said as she looked at Sona.

Sona just nodded absentmindedly as she didn't know why but she thought how it would feel to be taken care of like that by him. Blushing at her thoughts she shook her head and left to sleep while saying goodnight to the two.

Some time after Sona left,

"So what have you thought Rias, when should we approach him?" Akeno asked her king and best friend.

"Let's approach him tomorrow" Rias said looking outside the window gazing at the night sky.

While the two were having this chat, Tsubaki was having the best sleep of her life there was someone who was having trouble sleeping as whenever she closed her eyes the image of Leo carrying her in princess carry appeared in her mind. As she twisted and turned around in bed.

This was going to be a long night for her.
