When Sam came out of Alice's room he noticed that Zero Three was already awake.
"How are you feeling?" He asked.
"Better, I guess…" the young Valkyrie answered, her cheeks reddening a little as embarrassment forced her to look away.
Alice who was watching from behind him felt that something was off and looked at Sam with half lid eyes.
"It seems you two have grown awfully close." She commented.
"Really?" Sam, understanding the situation immediately, kept his calm and answered. "Well, I guess so. She doesn't call me old man anymore."
"And if I remember right you aren't supposed to touch any of the Valkyries." Alice went on, her suspension still strong. "Since when did you start hugging her like that?"
Sam remained silent for a while before letting out a long sigh. Three watched silently with an anxious expression having realized that he might be in some big trouble.
