"So… did you want me to accompany you now?" Ritsuka tilted his head in a curious slant.

"Ah no. Not yet. Besides I've already had my one on one with you." Rias clarified clearly speaking of the previous night.

"Did that count when we were being watched the entire night?" Ritsuka pointed out bringing up a very good point.

"Um… I suppose you're right but there's nothing I can do about that. Anyways if it means that much to you I'll figure something out for later. First things first is that I will be talking with the people of Kuoh Academy tomorrow. I ask that you remain home for tomorrow at the very least. I don't want to say I'm worried but there have been some sightings of dangerous people coming out of the woodworks." Rias quickly explained. "Can you do that for me?"

"I don't mind. Can I borrow that large room Kiba and I sparred in tomorrow?" Ritsuka asked in turn.

"I suppose. More training?" Rias questioned though she kept any real concerns quiet.

"Pretty much. I didn't really do everything I usually do. Today was me just getting a feel for being in Kuoh Town. I usually do more but meeting new friends is more important." Ritsuka gave a softhearted chuckle.

"Then yes. It should be fine. This is your home for the foreseeable future after all." Rias gave a small glance over to see Ritsuka's reaction. His smile remained but his eyes seem to be lost in thought. She noticed earlier. He made decisions within moments after hearing everything first.

"Great. It is very comfortable after all." Ritsuka responded looking around still keeping his thoughts to himself.

"Go get some rest. You've probably had a busy day… also maybe lock your door. Just in case." Rias amended to her suggestion. She wasn't even sure why though.

"Uh… okay then. I'll do that." Ritsuka confusededly muttered out before walking off for his room.

"Ugh… now I just have to make sure Akeno doesn't do anything." Rias sighed as she walked over to her Queen's room. The locks didn't matter since she was the owner of the house.

Akeno was lying on her bed in her usual lingerie… and the room smelled of cinnamon. That made Rias facepalm as Akeno noticed Rias inside her room. She looked embarrassed but kept calm otherwise.

"Akeno…" Rias started but she didn't know how to actually breach the subject when the room gave off a very distinct smell… which the cinnamon couldn't completely hide.

"Yes Rias?" Akeno coughed slightly as she turned to her friend. She really didn't want to do this.

"Uh… what did you learn?" Rias turned the topic to the information gathering just to not breach the intimate subjects.

"Ritsuka hides a lot of stuff… he's not as confident as he makes himself out to be and is dealing with immense guilt. He didn't want to speak about specifics and I didn't want to push that hard until he's more comfortable with us. He's not shy though… I think he's with someone already but I think that someone likes adding others to their relationships from what I could tell. That or whoever it is can't tell others not to do so " Akeno surmised putting on her professional mask.

"Is that really the most important part?" Rias blushed hotly after hearing that tidbit. She already knew he wasn't shy… he had proven it very easily just by going through their teasing without even breaking eye contact.

"Maybe~ After all it seems like he needs a mistress eventually." Akeno giggled lewdly as her hand trailed down her stomach.

"Teasing him already? Akeno, at least wait until we know more about him." Rias felt like she was going to be exasperated a lot.

"Oh I know. But… I have to go to this level just to get a rise out of him. He knows how to keep such high self control and he's far more mature than he lets on." Akeno argued back with a pout. "Besides… I have this bad feeling that he's the type to put his life on the line when necessary. It might be better to make memories now than let them drift off into nothingness."

"Did he tell you something?" Rias sat on the bed completely ignoring the smell now and completely invested now.

"No… it's more what he showed me. He finally stopped hiding his real face to me… only for a moment. It was the same thing that all of us, that you found, have felt. That despair I felt when I was hunted down… when Kiba was left alive… when Koneko was left alone. He knows far more about that sort of pain even if he doesn't know our reason." Akeno answered as she fell to the bed once more staring straight up at the ceiling.

"I see. Then that means we can trust him then, right?" Rias finished standing up from the bed.

"I certainly think so." Akeno responded though she was still staring up at the ceiling. "Please keep this to yourself."

"I'm certainly not going to say anything about this." Rias pointed out to the bed. "Oh, by the way, no sneaking to his bed. Off limits to you."

"Eh!?" Akeno cried out completely devastated.

"Akeno… I know you like teasing the boys at Kuoh but you are putting far too much effort into Ritsuka. Before you push too far I'll make sure you really think about things before that." Rias sighed for what felt like the eightieth time that day. "Besides, Koneko rushed past here looking a bit disturbed and muttering the word pervert while she passed your room."

"No fair! Ritsuka-kun needs my gentle embrace." Akeno tried to push past Rias only to be pushed back down into bed by her crimson haired King.

"He's still getting used to Kuoh! It's still too early for you to go to this length!" Rias argued back as the two struggled over this issue throughout the night.
