A Draconic Date — Part 1


Editors: Speedphoenix, Joker

"Yuki, I wish to invite you on a date . "


"Sure, let's g—" I casually nodded along to Lefi's words, as usual, only to suddenly stop as I finally processed them . "Wait . What?"


"Did you perhaps provide an answer without listening to what I said?" Lefi's tone didn't really change . She knew it was the usual . "I suggested that we engage in the experience known as a date . "


“Uh… Uhm… Sure…” My brain had ground to a halt . It took me a good while to squeeze out an answer . Wait . A date? Like, a date date? Wait, wait, wait . Calm down Yuki . Don't let yourself get too excited .


I had the sneaking suspicion that the dragon girl would flash me a shit-eating grin just to piss me off the moment I let myself get carried away . Alright Yuki, you can do this . Keep calm . Take it easy . Deep breaths .


"S-So where do you wanna go?" I stuttered at first, but otherwise managed to speak in my usual tone . I had succeeded in containing most of my excitement .


"Our destination is one of the mountains beyond the one we inhabit . "

"Oh, so we're going hiking? That sounds like it could be fun . "


"Hiking? I see no reason for such an endeavour . We shall fly . "


Oh yeah . Derp . I almost forgot I had wings . But flying, huh? I guess that means we're going on a sky date . Yeah, that's nice . I like the sound of that .


"Wait… destination? Are we going somewhere specific?" I asked .


"Indeed . There happens to be a colony of bees on that mountain, one that I have not visited in many a month . I believe that it has come time for me to pay it a visit . "


…Wait a second .


"Bees?"


"Precisely . I must say that the honey they produce is quite delectable . I do enjoy the sweets that you provide, but my time away from the sweet nectar has led me to desire it . I would like to harvest it and present it to Leila such that she may use it to craft a delectable dessert . "


I had no words to say . Seeing the blissful look she had on her face as she talked about how much she liked the honey took me from flustered to calm in a matter of moments . Oh . I see how it is .



"Let us visit it together, Yuki . "


"…Don't wanna . " I paused before refusing much in the same manner as a child throwing a tantrum . I laid down on the spot and turned to face away from Lefi . All my excitement was gone with the wind .


"What!? Why ever would you refuse!?" The dragon, who had expected everything but refusal, responded in an upset, flustered tone . She immediately moved to the side I was facing and tried to look at me, but I rolled over again in order to avoid meeting her gaze .


"I don't care about honey . "


"I-I assure you that it is the most delicious honey that this world has to offer . I have no doubts that you will enjoy it . " Lefi mounted my thighs in order to stop me from turning and peeked at my face, but I craned my neck and continued to avoid looking at her .


"Don't care . I don't like sweets that much anyway," I pouted .

"Rghhh…" Lefi groaned as she tried to come up with another excuse to drag me along . "Y-your beloved other half is thirsting for honey . Is it not your duty as my partner to grant my wishes?"


I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to be the judge of whether someone else thinks of you as beloved, Lefi . And whaddya mean partner? Are we supposed to be some sort of stand up comedy duo that does sketches for laughs and cash or something?


"Even if I am your partner or whatever, I don't see how going benefits me in any which way . "


"E-Even if I was to offer to permit you to sleep by my side in exchange?" said Lefi with a blush .


"Was that supposed to sweeten the deal or something? 'Cause it doesn't . "


"Ngrah!?"


The unexpected reply caused the supreme dragon to make a strange sound to express her shock . She looked down at me and stared . It took a while, but she eventually caught on to the fact that I had no intention of moving whatsoever, a conclusion that led to her groan .


"All I wished for was for us to spend time with only each other at our sides…" she muttered under her breath .


She said it extremely quietly . I could tell that it wasn't something she had intended for me to hear . But being a demon lord, my senses were extremely sharp . I was capable of hearing the heartbeats of anyone nearby, so the words she had whispered were as clear as day . Wait…Was that why she'd asked me out to begin with? Probably, actually . Man, this would've been much easier if she said it straight from the start . Oh wait . Right . She's awkward and not really used to this kinda stuff yet . Riiiiiiiiight .


After heaving a small sigh, I sat up . Since she was sitting on my thighs, my face had ended up basically right in front of hers .


"Ngh!?" She made another weird sound to illustrate her surprise as we exchanged a glance from almost point blank .


"Fiiiiine, I'll come," I said in an exaggerated demonstration of unwillingness . "But you're going to have to keep that promise of yours and be a damn good body pillow . "


"B-body pillow!?" She squeaked in surprise but immediately faked a cough and then kept talking as if it had never happened . "V-Very well . I suppose that, as one that comprehends the spirit of magnanimity, I shall permit you to see your request granted . "


She was trying her best to fake composure, but the way her tail was twitching made it as obvious as could be that she was feeling rather flustered . Smiling, I took her by the hand and got up off the ground .
