He was amazed. Kazuki could not believe how detailed it was. He took the paper from the easel and held it up to the light. Marveling further, he said "Natsuki-chan, you're a genius!" He beamed at her out of happiness. Natsuki looked at him with some curiosity. "What are you doing?" was what she asked. It did not look like she was mad or angry. Natsuki genuinely had no idea why he was reacting the way he was. That dampened Kazuki's mood and he started to feel embarrassed. It was not cool to get so excited over a sketch. He was not sure if he wanted to go the cool route with her, but this was certainly not helping. The only thing he could was apologize and return the paper to her. She took it and put back on the easel quietly. The silence quickly got to Kazuki. So much so that he said "Would you like to go bed now!? I'd like to go to sleep." She was startled at the suddenness of the request. It seemed that she was not ready yet. Natsuki just looked at Kazuki up and down with suspicion. "I bet you want to cuddle with me too, huh?" she stated. This was a test. Kazuki did not fail.
There was no denying that. He was a healthy, straight boy. Sleeping next to Natsuki would stir some feelings from within him. Something else would probably stir during the night now. "Cuddling is fine, right!?" he asked. He was not a creep. Kazuki knew that no meant no. Being that she was demisexual, that would be a tall order. It was a whole dimension of complexity than many of the other boys did not need to deal with here. Eiji had no such problem after the party. Ami was the one that helped Aito. If it was not for her, he would not have been able to do it at all. This was not a total lost cause though. If she was a lesbian, there would be no hope at all. Natsuki would never be sexually attracted to him in that case. Since she was actually a demisexual girl, he would need to get close to her and make a emotional bond. Kazuki could go slow and be friends with Natsuki. Sharing a bed with her and cuddling was something that he wanted to do. Otherwise, he would need to go to Rei's room. Rei was open to fucking him. Kazuki already had sex with her. He could focus on getting her pregnant.
After sighing, she said "Alright. Let's go to bed. I have to shower and get my night clothes on. You can wait in the bedroom for me." That was fine with him. He sat on the bed and waited for her. Natsuki returned to him wearing a sexy, black, silk lingerie outfit. He thought she looked really good in it. She shrugged and said "This is standard for all the girls that live here. I didn't want this for myself." Hearing that, Kazuki was looking forward to seeing Rei in the outfit as well. Seeing that his attention was now elsewhere, she leaned forward. "Are you that tired, Kazuki!? You seem to be daydreaming in front of me." she said, annoyance leaking into her voice. He snapped out of it and looked sheepish. Kazuki had been caught fantasizing. "Yeah! Yeah, it's time to go to bed. I'll shower in the morning." he said. Natsuki had nothing to say to that. At the end of the day, he was the pilot and she was the comfort woman. She crawled in on her side of the bed and got under the covers. Kazuki did the same. "Do you want to cuddle!?" he asked her. "Sure. I will be big spoon then." was her reply. They cuddled.
Feeling her against his back was pretty nice. Sharing body heat was a very intimate experience. Kazuki enjoyed the fact that someone was treating him nicely for once. It was one of the things that he had been hoping for going into this institution. Natsuki was clinging onto his back and nuzzling against him. 'Damn. That's fucking cute!' he thought to himself. Kazuki could feel the stir of his loins and he was actually glad that he was the little spoon. "A-are you feeling good back there?" he asked her. He just wondered if she was feeling just as embarrassed as him. She stopped nuzzling and said "I'm fine. Are you doing okay? I'm not holding too tight, right? I can stop if you want me to." Kazuki quickly looked over his shoulder at her. "No! Wait. I mean..." he trailed off as he composed himself. "Let's keep cuddling for a bit. You are doing fine." he said. She was startled from the suddenness, but she smiled knowingly. "Okay then. We can cuddle some more." Natsuki said. Kazuki could tell that there was a bit of a mocking tone. He did not care about it. As long as the lovely girl still held onto him.
