Chronicles of Eden - Act 2 (48 page)

“Oh, I see, like a date night,” Jovian said curiously.

“Yes, exactly, like a date night,” Daniel quickly agreed. Jacqueline nodded then smiled slyly at the boy.

“Date nights can include sex too though, can’t they?” she asked with a giggle. Daniel hesitated then nodded with a weak smile.

“Well, yes, they
can
. But that’s not the reason why we’re doing this,” he pointed out. Jovian and Jacqueline nodded then looked to Squeak.

“Well then, that sounds like fun for you, having him all to yourself for the night,” Jovian said with a tilt of her head.

“Yeah, have fun, good luck seducing him,” Jacqueline said before they both giggled together. Squeak smiled a bit to that while the other girls rolled their eyes, all of them not looking forward to having to play the waiting game through her turn that night. Falla smirked then stood up while holding her hands at her hips.

“Alright then, shall we head inside?” she asked. The group looked to her as she smiled innocently at Squeak.

“I’m ready whenever you are,” Falla said kindly.

“She’s a part of this as well?” Jovian asked dryly.

“And during Squeak’s turn?” Jacqueline questioned. Falla laughed then walked over and stood beside Squeak, the ant girl glancing to her with a dull expression as the butterfly rested a hand on her shoulder and shook her lightly.

“I’m merely helping her out with her turn tonight. I’m going to be their translator, after all I can understand her and allow her to speak to Daniel about whatever it is she wants to talk about,” she explained.

“You are?” the sisters asked.

“Yes I am, and in return for being such a big help, she’s allowing me to sleep next to Daniel as well. I’m so glad too, I’ll sleep so well knowing he’s next to me all night, I’ll feel so safe,” Falla said looking to Daniel with a coy smile. The boy held back his groan while trying not to frown at the girl as Squeak slowly nodded in agreement.

“Excuse me,” Specca said, quickly raising her hand. The group looked to her as she smiled nervously at Squeak.

“Squeak, may I make one tiny suggestion to you? Perhaps, if we ask nicely, Jovian and Jacqueline would be so kind as to be your translators tonight during your turn,” she said hopefully. Squeak looked at her curiously while Falla raised an eyebrow at the nixie.

“What are you talking about? We had a deal, remember?” Falla reminded. Specca showed an uneasy smile at her from that then looked at Squeak again.

“I’m just saying, they wouldn’t have to hold your head next to theirs to translate for you, they’re much more pleasant to talk to, and last and most importantly, something I cannot stress enough, they have absolutely no desire to have sex with Daniel at all,” she explained with urgency. Squeak looked at her for a moment then to the sisters as they smiled amusedly at them. Alyssa and Triska looked to each other then to the new girls with eager nods.

“You know what, that gets my vote,” Triska agreed with.

“Yes, please, would you two be so kind as to help Squeak talk to Daniel during her turn with him tonight?” Alyssa asked with a sweet smile.

“Hey! We had a deal; I’m going to be her translator tonight. She nearly killed me earlier and offered this along with sleeping next to Daniel as an apology, she owes me!” Falla barked out. Jovian and Jacqueline smirked and glanced to each other then looked at Squeak curiously.

“Wait, are you saying you want
us
to convey her words to Daniel tonight while they’re on their ‘date night’?” Jovian asked coyly.

“I believe they are, sister, although I’m not quite sure if I want to sleep next to a boy tonight, that would be very strange for me,” Jacqueline mentioned while looking to Daniel.

“Perfect! You don’t have to sleep with them, once they go to sleep you can just leave, no worries,” Triska eagerly said.

“Yeah, we actually prefer it that way,” Alyssa agreed.

“What do you say? Could you please help us with this?” Specca asked hopefully.

“What the hell? You can’t do that, I was going to help her tonight. Dammit, I’m trying to be nice to you stupid jerks here!” Falla barked out. Daniel looked around at the group then to Squeak as the ant girl was thinking about her options, her eyes going from Falla then over to the witch sisters as her antennae twitched slightly.

“Well, um… I guess it’s up to you, Squeak,” Daniel said with a shrug. Squeak glanced to him then looked at the sisters with a small smile and squeaked a few times, with the two new girls giggling and looking back and forth between her and Daniel.

“Oh my, I don’t know, should we really get involved in their affairs like this?” Jovian asked playfully.

“They’re being so nice as to give us a ride, I don’t think we have a choice, sister,” Jacqueline answered with a shrug.

“This is bullshit! What about me? I’m trying to be nice to you people here, you can’t just turn around and say no to me now, we had a deal!” Falla barked out. Squeak looked to her with a dull expression and squeaked something, with Falla watching her with annoyance then glancing to the sisters as they laughed at her.

“She says she changed her mind, but is still sorry about nearly crushing your head earlier,” Jovian said simply.

“Yeah, she trusts us with Daniel more than she does with you,” Jacqueline said with a shrug.

“What? How can you trust
them
more than me? You just met them! Besides, I promised I wouldn’t do anything with him, remember? I need your help finding my sister; I’m not doing anything wrong here!” Falla yelled out at Squeak. The ant girl squeaked at her while shaking her head, with the group watching her curiously. Jovian smirked and walked up to Squeak, gently pushing Falla back away from the ant girl while Jacqueline walked over to her other side.

“She said they shall still help you find your sister, however since you don’t really care about the human child at all she feels less inclined to be nice to you,” Jovian explained.

“How can you say that? Of course I care about the little brat, I was helping Luna bring her to you, wasn’t I?” Falla cried out. Squeak rolled her eyes and squeaked something else, with the other girls watching with amused smiles while Daniel had a curious expression on his face. Jacqueline then giggled and shook her head.

“She’s not sure why you tried to help that child, but feels that it wasn’t for her own wellbeing,” she relayed.

“How dare you say that, I’m being the good person here and-” Falla started to argue before Squeak stood up and began squeaking at her sternly while pointing to her, the group watching as she said something with a very firm tone while Falla watched her with confusion. After Squeak finished Jovian nodded then shrugged at Falla.

“Good person or not, the only reason she was offering you such a privilege of sleeping next to Daniel was because you could help her talk to him. Now that she’s found those who wouldn’t try to take Daniel’s pants off while he’s asleep, she feels they are the better choice over you. If you don’t like that, then you can just leave,” she stated casually. Falla growled with anger before Triska chuckled and nodded in agreement.

“I’d say they’re the
much
better choice over her,” she commented.

“Yes, I have no problem with both of them joining Squeak for the night at all,” Specca agreed. Falla looked to them with discontent and waved to the sisters.

“Why? Just because they’d rather have sex with a girl than a guy?” she barked out.

“That is a very big reason why, yes,” Alyssa replied dryly. Falla growled furiously before Squeak walked up to her and pointed at her again, pushing her finger against the butterfly girl’s chest with stern squeaks. Falla looked at her nervously then glanced to the sisters who smiled amusedly at her.

“She says if you truly want their help with finding your sister, then you will drop this right now,” Jovian said. Falla looked to Squeak’s finger then to the ant girl who was watching her with narrowed eyes. After a moment she grunted then pushed the girl’s hand aside.

“Fine, that’s the last time I try to do you any favors,” she snapped.

“Then it’s settled, Jovian and Jacqueline will be Squeak’s interpreters for the night, and Falla can sleep out here with Lucky,” Triska said with a stern smile.

“What? Why am I sleeping out here with the horse?” Falla barked out at her. Specca smiled calmly and adjusted her glasses as she glanced to the caravan.

“Because Jovian and Jacqueline will be sleeping inside, and with Daniel and Squeak having their own area along with all of us sharing the rest of the cabin, it may get a little crowded. Not to mention we’ll all feel better if you sleep outside anyway,” she informed factually.

“Leaps and bounds more so than with her sleeping right next to Daniel,” Alyssa commented flatly. Falla clenched her fists with anger as she growled while Daniel nodded slowly in agreement, feeling more relieved about just spending the night with Squeak rather than her and Falla together. The sisters giggled and smiled at the group.

“Thank you for your kindness,” they both said together in perfect unison. Falla blinked then glanced to them cautiously.

‘Something about them… seems familiar.’

Squeak smiled at Daniel and quickly rushed over to him, taking hold of his arm and tugging him towards the caravan. The boy laughed a bit as the other girls watched her with dull expressions.

“Ok, ok, we can go inside now,” Daniel said as Squeak happily squeaked at him.

“Daniel?” Alyssa asked sweetly. The boy looked to her as she walked up to him with an innocent smile.

“Can I get a goodnight kiss from you before you go? Please?” she asked while batting her eyelashes. Squeak looked at her with a dull frown then to the other girls as Specca and Triska stood up and smiled curiously at the boy.

“If I may, I would also like one as well,” Specca said timidly.

“Would it be alright if I could have one too?” Triska asked softly. Daniel looked around at them with a nervous smile then to Squeak, the ant girl rolling her eyes then looking away with a shrug as she reluctantly let go of him.

“Well, I guess that would be fair if-” he started before Alyssa hopped up and kissed the boy with a loving sigh, the girl holding onto her staff to keep her up high enough while she had her other arm around his neck. Squeak glanced back to her with an annoyed expression as the witch obviously used her tongue in the kiss, with Daniel looking at her with surprise before she pulled back and giggled softly.

“Thank you, I love you, Daniel,” she said before slowly lowering herself down, sliding her hand down his shirt to his waist before she gently ran it off to the side with one finger. Daniel smiled a bit and nodded then looked to seeing Specca walking up to him. The nixie held onto his chest and kissed him too, her tail gently swaying over and going around his thigh. The boy closed his eyes as he felt the girl rolling her tongue around his, not being sure if he should hold her or keep his hands at his sides like he was doing. After the kiss ended Specca smiled timidly at him with a small blush.

“I love you,” she said before slowly backing up, her tail gently going around his thigh before letting go as well. Daniel smiled lightly at her and nodded slowly before looking to seeing Triska parting the two girls aside and walking up to him.

“I love you too, so much,” Triska said softly before kissing and holding her arms around the boy’s neck. Squeak at this point was showing a very irritated scowl as she tried to be fair with the girls getting one last kiss for the night, while Falla was just watching the boy with a dull expression and her arms crossed. Specca and Alyssa watched with annoyance as well as Triska kissed Daniel deeply before she leaned in closer to his ear.

“And I want to be your bad girl again,
so
much,” she whispered before leaning back and winking at the boy, with Daniel staring at her with wonder as she slowly let go and walked back away from him past the girls, her hips swaying a bit more than usual as she glanced back to him with a coy smile.

“What did she say just now?” Specca asked looking back to Daniel. The boy watched as Triska smirked and wiggled her rear slightly before she began collecting the dishes from around the campfire.

“Um… just… goodnight,” Daniel said with a nervous smile and shrug.

Squeak huffed then grabbed his arm with a squeak, the boy looking to her as she tried pulling him towards the caravan again with a pout.

“Ok, we can go in now,” he said with a small laugh.

“Hold on, she can’t go yet,” Jovian said holding a hand up to the ant girl. The group looked to her as Squeak stopped in place and squeaked curiously.

“Squeak, this is your date night with him, is it not?” Jacqueline questioned. Squeak nodded and pointed to Daniel then to the caravan while squeaking something. Jovian giggled and shook her head with an amused smile.

“But you simply can’t go in there like
that
,” she said expectantly while gesturing to the ant girl. Squeak looked at her puzzled then down to herself as Jacqueline walked over and patted down the girl’s tunic, causing dust and dirt to come off in small puffs.

“You are absolutely filthy, you can’t go on a date like this,” Jacqueline laughed. The group looked at Squeak curiously as she checked herself over before looking at the sisters with a few squeaks. Jovian shook her head and walked over to her, taking hold of the ant girl’s hand while Jacqueline took hold of the other.

“No no, if we’re going to have a part in this, then we’re going to do it right, and the first thing we need to help you with is getting you cleaned up, you dirty girl you,” Jovian said, with the last part having a playful purr to it. Squeak looked down at herself then to Daniel as the boy was looking her over curiously as well.

“Well, she did get dirtied up a bit earlier helping us, but that’s alright, I know ant girls can get like that, I don’t mind how she is at all,” he said with a shrug. Squeak smiled softly at that before the sisters shook their heads in unison.

“If this is a date then she needs to look her best, that’s all there is to it,” Jovian asserted.

“There’s a stream just over the hill, we’ll get her cleaned up while you get ready for your date with her,” Jacqueline said with a giggle at the boy. Daniel smiled nervously as Squeak looked herself over curiously again. Triska, Specca, and Alyssa glanced to each other then looked at Squeak with concern.
