Chapter Text
Yoruko looked up to the sky, hearing another firework explode above her. Beside her, Yuki jumped and leaned further into her. On her other side, Sora began to laugh at the lucky student's reaction as the boy huffed.
The three of them were sitting down beside each other on Utsuroshima's beach, watching an array of fireworks go off overhead. Yoruko never thought she'd be lucky enough to have not one, but two lovers in her lifetime. After a life of being bullied, being rejected, being harassed in the hostess business, and always at risk of being arrested for illegally working in a bar, it seemed that fate was finally giving her a taste of true happiness.
As Yuki's body fell limp against her side, she realized that he had fallen asleep. On her other side, Sora reached over to Yuki and rubbed his head. The albino then kissed Yoruko on the cheek, relishing the hostess's flustered reaction. She then decided to take a page from Yuki and put her head on Yoruko's shoulder, slowly drifting off to sleep.
Inside her chest, Yoruko could feel her heart heat up with tenderness when looking at her two lovers. Looking up at the sky and watching a beautiful firework go off, she wished that this moment could last for an eternity. Lowering her head, she decided to join Sora and Yuki in a restful slumber.
In the middle of the night, Yoruko slowly opened her eyes, finding herself alone in an ordinary bed. As she became more aware, she felt tears come to her eyes. It was all a dream. She got out of her bed and began to walk from her bedroom in her house to the guest bedroom, which was occupied.
Yoruko knocked on the door, waiting anxiously for a sign that the occupant was awake. After a few moments, the door opened, revealing a person with short, white hair inside a feminine body. They were wearing a pair of Yoruko's spare pyjamas and had bags under their eyes. "Yoruko...?" They murmured. "Did you not get any sleep either?"
"N-No, it's not that." The counselor took a deep breath before speaking again. "Can I stay with you tonight, Yuki? I...I don't want to be alone right now."
Yuki looked Yoruko over with a depressed expression. "Did you dream of Sora again?" He asked, getting a nod in return. He took her hand and lead her to the bed, getting in first and waiting until Yoruko got in before pulling the covers over both of them.
As of now, Yoruko's house had become Yuki's home as well, though it only served as a place where he showed up occasionally to rest awhile while helping others around the world with his Divine Luck. Nonetheless, the spare guest bedroom had been converted into a room for Yuki, who had moved some of his treasured objects from his old house that hadn't been broken or stolen into his new room.
In the bed, Yuki turned over and cuddled Yoruko. Even though they weren't the same age anymore and couldn't really call themselves 'lovers' anymore, they still bonded over the fact that they missed Sora a lot, who had sacrificed herself and stayed in the collapsing virtual world with Utsuro and Mikado so that Yuki could escape.
Yoruko felt the front of her pyjamas become wet with Yuki's tears and held him closer. She had a feeling that they would never get over what had happened in the Isle of Nowhere, but whatever future came their way, they at least had each other.
