Chapter 829: A Complicated Night
🕑 Added 2023-07-27 14:49:07 +0000 UTCEvan stared at the bathroom for a long time, and heard the sound of Hermione undressing.
It wasn't until the sound of water sounded inside that he reacted and accepted the fact.
Hermione was taking a shower in there. She was going to sleep in the same room with him...
Thinking about it carefully, there was nothing to make a fuss about, but Evan sat on the bed and couldn't calm down.
The current question was, what should he do now?!
He couldn't just ignore Hermione and go back to sleep, but sitting here and waiting for her to finish showering felt strange.
In the dim light, Evan listened attentively to the sounds coming from the bathroom, thinking about Hermione being inside with nothing on, tightly hugging a pillow...
Then Evan suddenly thought, how would he explain this matter to Fleur and Gabrielle tomorrow?!
Tell them directly that Hermione was sleeping with him?
Since Hermione was now his girlfriend, that should not be a problem.
Evan thought of this, Hermione was his girlfriend, shouldn’t he be doing something instead of sitting here?!
He felt itchy in his heart, and as soon as he stood up ready to take action, he heard another knock at the door.
"Who is it?" Evan asked, holding his breath.
The sound of running water in the bathroom stopped and Hermione heard the knock on the door.
"It's me, Evan!" Gabrielle's voice came tremblingly, sounding urgent.
"What are you doing so late? I was sleeping..."
What was this all about? They didn't sleep well and ran to his room one by one in the middle of the night.
"Hurry and open the door, Evan," said Gabrielle in panic, her voice urging. "It's so dark outside. I'm a little scared!" "
Evan scratched his head. He couldn’t let Gabrielle stand outside, but it was even worse to open the door directly. Hermione was still in the bathroom.
Although the two had nothing to reproach themselves for, it was always a bit embarrassing to explain it to Gabrielle.
"Hold on, I'll get up!" Evan said loudly, and quickly came to the bathroom door and knocked.
A few seconds later, the door opened a small slit, revealing Hermione’s brown eyes, sparkling brightly.
"What should I do?" Hermione said, her voice also a little alarmed.
Evan was speechless. She had come here on her own initiative, but now she was asking him what to do and how to answer. Where did her calmness just now go?!
"You keep washing, and I’ll open the door for Gabrielle and tell her the matter directly," said Evan.
"Don't go, you can’t tell her and I’m like this!" said Hermione, blushing. "Wait for me to put on my clothes first."
Along the slit, Evan looked inward to see Hermione standing inside wrapped in a bath towel with wet hair…
There was another rapid knock on the door, Gabrielle's voice was a bit crying, and she seemed really scared.
"It's too late. Go and open the door!" said Hermione, her body changing quickly. "Help me put my clothes away!"
In the blink of an eye, the bath towel fell to the ground. She turned into a cat and quickly walked past Evan to his bed and hid under the bedding...
Evan looked at her in a daze. How come this picture was so familiar?
It was the same in Ginny’s room last year. When Ginny suddenly came in, Evan turned into a black cat and hid in Hermione’s bed, but now it was Hermione who transformed.
Things that could have been explained clearly in a few sentences had become more and more complicated and could not be explained at all.
Now if he told Gabrielle that there was nothing between him and Hermione, she probably wouldn’t believe it.
But it didn’t matter if there was really anything. The two of them were lovers. Normally, it should be something normal.
Look at Ron and Lavender. After only a few dates, they shamelessly hugged and kissed each other. Looking back at Evan and Hermione, they were as pure as primary school students. Evan didn’t know why the situation had become like this.
He sighed. He had to find another opportunity to make things clear. This evening was indeed not a suitable occasion to explain.
Hermione was originally supposed to sleep with Gabrielle. But when it was quiet at night, she secretly ran into Evan’s room. Even though the two were currently in a relationship, it was too unethical to do so. Hermione must be embarrassed, and Evan couldn’t say anything, especially when explaining this to Gabrielle.
It was better to say it openly during the day, not as stealthily as it was now.
"Let's think of a way to muddle through first." Evan murmured, entering the bathroom.
It was misty inside, full of damp steam.
He saw that Hermione’s clothes and underwear were all placed in the basket at the door. Evan stared at these things for a few seconds and directly put the clothes in the cloth bag...
In the dim light, he turned back to see Hermione hiding under the bedding, peering at him with her head out.
Their eyes met, and Hermione quickly pulled her head back, looking as cute as a real kitten.
"What is this all about?" Evan sighed and shouted, "I'm coming. Stop knocking!"
He went over and opened the door and saw Gabrielle standing outside in her lovely cartoon pajamas with a doll in her arms.
She looked panicked, tears swirling in her eyes, and as soon as the door opened, she threw herself in Evan’s arms.
"What's going on?" Evan asked hurriedly. "What happened?"
"I was just sleeping and dreamed that Ramses II and his queen Nefertari had a love story, but then the mummies I saw in the museum during the day, they all came back to life and made strange noises...” Gabrielle whispered, wiping her eyes.
"Don't worry, it’s just a nightmare!" Evan comforted her, thinking that children should not be allowed to see such terrible things.
"Mmm!" Gabrielle nodded and continued. "But when I woke up, I realized Hermione was suddenly gone. I called out a few times, and my sister didn't come back. I was all alone in that big room. Have they been captured by the mummies?"
"No way, your sister must be flirting somewhere with Bill!" Evan paused before adding, "As for Hermione, she maybe couldn't sleep and went out for a late-night snack. She'll be back soon. All right, let me take you back."
"No, there is no one in that room. I'm a little scared!" said Gabrielle, her voice getting lower and lower. "Evan, can I sleep with you tonight..."
Evan looked at the pitiful Gabrielle with a wry smile. She looked so adorable right now.
It would have been fine to sleep with a nine-year-old girl, but there was a cat in his bed now. How to explain it if it was found out?
He subconsciously covered his forehead. Things were really getting more and more troublesome. They shouldn't have been like this!
Without waiting for Evan to reply, Gabrielle walked directly to his bed.
