“You know I’ll kill you.” Nas said from across the room, glaring at Kohoku. “As soon as you fall asleep, I’ll kill you.”

“That’s why I’m not going to sleep till you do.” Kohoku said non-chantey.

“I’ll wake before you and kill you.” Nas said.

Kohoku sighed. “You know if I wanted to I could just tie you down to the bed. And that would solve this problem very easily.” He said as he got off the bed and walked over to her. Watching her tense as he approached. “Well at least my problem.” He caught her fist and shoved her against wall shoving his leg between hers and pinning her arms above her head. He moved millimeters from her ear, breathing on her neck.

“Fucking bastard!” Nas screamed. At him trying to thrash. He pressed his body against hers.

Kohoku puffed his wings out and stopping her thrashing. She kept her head turned away from him. “Calm down and listen to me.” He whispered into her ear. “My intentions are purely the enjoyment of your company while you sleep. That is all. I’m not going to do anything; I won’t grope, fondle or even place a hand to you if that is what it takes.” He nuzzled her neck with his nose, placing gentle kisses to her neck. Nas flinching with each touch “I promise, you that. I’ll never harm you in that way.”

He felt her slowly relax just a tad. Nas finally turned her eyes towards him but not her head. “Just because I’m going to comply doesn’t mean I trust you or that I’ve changed my mind about anything.”

“I’d never assume anything of you. I assure you.” He pulled his head around to attempt to look her in the eye. She wouldn’t meet his gaze. “I’m going to let you go now. Just don’t, you know.” He slowly eased off her and let go of her arms. Nas rubbed her wrists. She gave him a quick glance before crossing her arms and leaning against the wall. Kohoku gave a mental sigh of relief. “I’m going to get ready for bed. I got some things for you to sleep in over on the chest. And I won’t peek around the screen.”

Nas watched out of the corner of her eye as he walked over to the bed and began taking off his shirt. Kohoku noticed and a smile crept across his face as he decided to toy with her a bit. Stretching his wings and back making his muscles flex and the light glisten across his skin. Nas felt her cheeks warm at the sight. *god he looks so much like him its unreal.* Kohoku watched over his shoulder as she turned to look at him. His smile getting bigger. That’s when he decided it’d be a good time to drop his drawers. Both of them.

Nas’s cheeks turned neon red as she got a full sight of his back side. “Ooooooooooh!” she growled loudly as she stormed over and grabbed the clothes off the chest and went behind the privacy screen.

Kohoku chuckled, “what didn’t like the show?” he said laughing as he pulled on a pair of fresh clean sleep pants from his dresser. Normal he slept in the buff but didn’t want to have Nas huddled in the corner of the bed as far away from him as humanly possible or have to tie her to bed. Kohoku sat down on his side of the stretched and sprawled out to watch the delicately moving silhouette behind the screen.

Nas slowly and unnervingly removed her clothes and tossed them over the screen. Down to just her panties she decided to take a look at the clothing option he had left for choose from. One was a silky sheer baby doll with matching thong in a horrible shade of light pink. *in his fucking dreams.* another a tiny little boy shorts that her ass would be hanging out of and a tiny half cropped shirt that would barely cover his boobs, again in a horrible shade of pink. *asshole, asshole, asshole.* the last outfit was a light grey and blue baggy sleeping Capri’s and over sized matching t-shirt.*why did he even bother with the other two?* she quickly pulled on the top and then pulled up the pants. Pulling her ponytail out of the shirt she pulled out the hair band. Letting her golden and rainbow locks fall around her face. After a moment Nas sat down on the floor and wrapped her arms around her knees placing her head in between.

Kohoku sat up quickly, worry washing across his face. *maybe the gag pj’s weren’t such a good idea* he went to climb off the bed before stopping. He sighed and sat back down, though not nearly as cocky.

*Dee I miss you so much. Why didn’t you tell me you had a twin, why? Everything would’ve been so much easier.* Nas felt a tears welling up and beginning to fall. “No, no, no, no.” she mumbled as she quickly wiped them away. *no, no, can’t show weakness. I can’t. Not now. Not now of all times.* Nas took a few deep breathes and wiped away her tears trying to calm herself. After she once again felt confident in her demeanor she stood up gathered up the other pjs and walked back to the bed. Once there she threw them in Kohoku’s face. “Nice try asshole.”

Kohoku gave a light chuckle, “had to try at least.” He placed the clothing articles on the ground before looking back up at Nas. She hadn’t moved yet from standing next to the bed. He gently placed a hand on the other side of him. “I promised I wouldn’t and I’ll keep my word.” He reached up and took her hand, lifting his wing inviting her to join him in the bed. She stepped up and over him to climb onto the other side of the bed. Sitting down quite a bit away. “It’s a big bed.” He rolled over on to his stomach folding his wings down his back. “There’s plenty of room for you and you don’t have to be near me. Whatever you need to feel comfortable.” He waited for a moment when she didn’t move he spoke again. “I’m going to off the lights now.”  He pulled up the cover and hit the lights, on the wall next to the bed. And opening up the ceiling window letting in the star light.

Kohoku closed his eyes and laid his head down getting ready to drift off.  He felt the blanket lift up, but what surprised him to open his eyes and look down was the feeling of another body pressing against his. “This doesn’t mean or change anything got it.” Nas said trying to sound tough. He heard the slightest quiver in her voice and the small shivers running from her body.

“I know.” He placed a hand around her shoulders. “I won’t hurt you Nas. I’m not my brother. But I liked to be just as close to you.”
