Saturday, December 26th.
The morning after Christmas was a typical winter morning, although the Azure Star Planet didn't commemorate the holiday, there was one person who commemorated it.
At the house in the middle of the Pedrarruna Forest, two people were sleeping together while cuddling each other.
His arms embraced her slender frame and gave her warmth on that wintry morning.
It was as if their bodies were meant to cuddle each other.
His silver hair and her purple hair were entangled and their chests moved as if they were in sync.
Suddenly, his eyelids trembled as he woke up, his nostrils were assaulted with the most amazing smell he ever felt.
He felt her small body on his arms giving warmth.
With his eyes still closed, Theo started smiling.
His smile was subconscious as he felt genuine happiness of waking up together with Ayia in his arms.
Theo just stayed there cuddling the beautiful girl in his arms as he remembered the night before.
Yesterday, both of them had an amazing date.
They ate delicious food they prepared together, and afterward, they watched anime until late at night, and it was then that they started talking and talking, which made them start kissing.
They kissed for so long that they felt tired, so they slept together.
Even though nothing spicy happened and they just cuddled into sleep, Theo felt it was the perfect ending for the night.
He didn't think that they were prepared to move to that spicy place yet.
Theo felt for the first time in both lifetimes how amazing it was to fall asleep in the arms of someone he loved.
He felt genuine happiness that only the ones who lived the moment would know how it feels.
Theo just stayed there hugging Ayia until he felt her moving.
Ayia's eyelids trembled as she woke up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was momentarily confused as she felt that she was in an unfamiliar place, but as she smelt the smell in the air, she smelt Theo's amazing smell.
She felt his arms embracing her and giving her warmth and protection as she remembered what happened the night before.
"Morning, morning flower..." Theo spoke in a husky-loving voice.
Ayia could feel the smile in his voice, she smiled and replied with a smile, "Morning..."
Theo embraced her even tighter as they stayed in silence enjoying each other's embrace.
A while later, Theo said laughing, "I have to go to the bathroom or I'll pee myself."
"Go! Now!" Ayia laughed in horror.
Just like that the two of them had their first night together.
It was sweet and loving just like a first love should be.
Shortly after, Theo exited the bathroom after peeing and brushing his teeth.
"I have a spare toothbrush in there." Theo said with a smile as he watched Ayia walking towards the bathroom behind him.
"Thank you!" Ayia replied with a happy smile.
"I will be downstairs making breakfast." Theo added.
"Okay, I will be there shortly." She shouted as she closed the bathroom.
Theo laughed merrily as he walked out of his bedroom.
He felt so happy to have someone to wake up next to in the morning.
He had never felt something like it before, he had always slept alone in both lifetimes, but for the first time ever he had a girl to sleep with, and he loved her so much.
He didn't think he would like that much if he didn't like the girl he was sleeping with.
'I guess the saying that -it is better if love is involved- it is true.' He thought.
After all, Theo knew himself well, he knew that he didn't like people invading his personal space, even more, something so intimate as his bed.
Only someone so amazing as Ayia was able to penetrate the safe bubble zone he build around himself and his heart, he loved her for that.
Theo was feeling happy than ever as he started cooking breakfast that Saturday morning, a while later Ayia arrived and helped him cook the food for the two of them.
Aurora was at her friend's house having a sleepover while the others would not come that morning as Theo warned them there wouldn't have training that morning.
So, it was only the two of them alone on that wintry Saturday morning.
Shortly after, they finished cooking and sat at the dining table to have breakfast together.
"What are you doing later?" Ayia asked as she poured hot tea into her mug.
"Hmm, I have to go to the animation studio. I don't know if I told you, but we are opening a branch studio in Sakura City that will focus on working with voice actors." Theo commented without hiding anything.
After sleeping with Ayia, he felt even more at ease with her, he would not hide anything from her anymore.
"Really? That's so cool!" Ayia replied with shining eyes.
"Yeah, because I don't wanna move the main studio to Sakura City, only the voice actors with operate in this branch studio. And today we will have our first audition for the anime we are producing at the moment. And I have to be there to evaluate the candidates for the parts." Theo explained as he took a bite of his sandwich.
"You gonna evaluate through a video call?" She asked.
"Yeah, it will be all virtual. Ryoko and I will watch the audition here and later we will just give the feedback to the employees in the branch studio." Theo replied with a smile.
"I can't wait to watch the anime on TV!" Ayia exclaimed in excitement.
"That makes us two." Theo laughed.
"What about you? What are you going to do?" He asked.
"Hmm, I think I'm going to deal with some things about your musical career. I have received some emails yesterday that I have to reply back." She replied after thinking for a while.
"Oh, talking about that, send me the info about how much you spent on the music video productions. I have just received some money and I can pay you back anytime." Theo suddenly said as he remembered the money he received from the system.
"Okay, I will send it to you." Ayia replied with a helpless look.
The money she spent was like peanuts for her, but she knew that Theo would not accept her help, she respected his integrity, but she still felt a little helpless.
"Oh, have you seen the number of streams on your album yesterday?" She suddenly asked.
"Hmm, no I didn't. I was so busy with the studio yesterday and afterward, it was our date. Therefore, I didn't have time to check it." Theo replied.
"Should we check it?" Ayia asked with a voice brimming with curiosity.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Definitely!" Theo replied with eyes equally shining.
The two of them immediately picked up their phones and opened the streaming platform.
"OH MY GOD!" Ayia shouted with wide eyes as she looked at the number on the screen.
More than 1 million streams in all 10 songs of the album!
The Track App updated the number of streams every midnight. This meant that Theo's album was on the platform for less than two days and without any type of marketing, he managed to get at least 1 million people listening to the songs he launched.
While Ayia checked the number of streams on the Track App, Theo checked the views on his M/Vs on Ruby.
And he was not disappointed.
More than 5 million views in every music video!
The Believer M/V had almost 10 million views!
That was a huge number for an unknown artist without any marketing moves.
Theo felt so happy to know that his efforts were appreciated by the public, he could not help but feel even giddier for the next days. Could his music videos pass 100 million views? And his songs? Could they reach the top of the charts?
"Theo! All of your songs entered the top 100 in the country!" Ayia exclaimed happily as she checked the charts.
Ayia and Theo looked at each other and started laughing happily and hugging each other.
They both felt so happy.
Ayia felt happy that her man was making success in his work, she felt so satisfied to know that everyone could appreciate how amazing her man was.
While Theo felt so happy that all the work he had put into the album was being appreciated by the public.
He was looking forward to what the future reserved for his musical career.
The two of them continued having breakfast as they talked about a multitude of things.
After they finished eating, they had a little workout together.
Although there were only the two of them, Theo still could train and spar with Ayia.
After all, she was also a black belt and had the skills to keep up with him.
After an intense workout, they took a shower and dressed up for the day.
He drove Ayia to her mansion before heading to the studio, but not before they had an intense goodbye kiss.
It was an important day for Theo, and he was feeling ready for the day after the kiss they had.
Would he be able to find the perfect voice actors for the SAO Anime?
