"Vaan, we need to talk."

Astra spoke as she walked into Vaan's room. Her eyes then fell on her Pupil and her Son and,

"Oh?"

She raised her eyebrow.

Then, a playful smile appeared on her face and,

"I didn't know you two got this close." She commented, her eyes fixed on her Pupil.

"T-T-Teacher! I-It is not w-what you th-"

"It is exactly as you think, Mother."

Elara's face turned red. She panicked when she realized the position she was in in front of her Teacher, her first reaction was to deny everything at come up with an excuse, however, before she could say anything, Vaan jumped in.

"V-V-Vaan!"

Elara shouted.

"What?" Vaan tilted his head in confusion as he looked into Elara's eyes. Seeing him looking at her like that, Elara was at a loss for words.

"This feels so comfortable~" Vaan muttered as he changed his position, making himself more comfortable on his fiancé's lap.
