Lelouch thought about it and was about to go for it, figuring if not why not, before Koneko tugged his sleeve slightly and shook her head quickly before composing herself faster than he could even react. He turned his attention to Rias and decided against it.
"Issei said he'd do it," he answered. "I don't think it's right for me to take that from him." Rias shrugged and sent Issei on his way. He was curious why Koneko had warned him against accepting, but figured he'd take her at her word.
"Well, there you go, better get started on your trip Issei if you want to be able to sleep tonight." She said, concealing a laugh at her Pawn's predicament.
Issei stomped out in a rage, causing Lelouch to chuckle slightly as he found his fellow Devil's predicament somewhat amusing. He was curious as to why it didn't seem to work though.
He doubted Akeno screwed up the Transportation Circle, it sounded like a basic spell and he had a feeling she was far stronger than she let on with her kindly demeanor.
"Would you like me to teleport you home?" Akeno asked him, causing him to remember something.
"Shit." He spoke as he realized his predicament. Lelouch hung his head slightly as he realized he had forgotten to find a place to stay. "My home was destroyed by the Fallen Angel." Lelouch explained at Akeno's look.
"I don't have a place to stay tonight." Damn it, he knew he had forgotten something when he was out delivering the flyers.
"Oh no, you poor thing." Akeno gushed as she brought him in for a hug. "Are your parents okay?" She asked carefully, causing Lelouch to snort at the absurdity of that statement.
'Considering I killed them in my world and they're dead in this one I don't think so.' But as he couldn't very well say that out loud he replied with, "I live alone, my parents died when I was nine.
" He shrugged, dismissing Akeno's sympathy. "I'll find something, maybe I can rent a hotel room for tonight." That would require he either go to one of the seedier places or get exceedingly lucky considering a majority would be closed at this time of night.
"No, that won't do." Rias responded abruptly. "I won't let my Knight remain homeless like some vagabond." She declared, causing Lelouch to blink. He was touched by her kindness, especially as he had only known her in passing before tonight.
"You can stay with me." Koneko responded quietly, shocking the four other occupants of the room. She looked away from Lelouch's stare. "I healed you and you've already been inside my home, you might as well stay with me until you find a new place.
" She answered the four curious glances she got. Her decision had nothing to do with the fact that she would be able to enjoy Lelouch's cooking and have him around to bake sweets on demand.
Nope, she was just being a good friend. And she would stand by that story to the grave.
"You don't have to do that Koneko, I can take him in no problem." Kiba offered, not wanting to make the girl feel as though she was the only one who could take in their newest ally.
"Now, now Kiba." Rias interjected. "Koneko offered first, I see no reason to deny it unless she gets uncomfortable having Lelouch as her guest." She turned her attention to her Knight. "You won't bother her will you, Lelouch?" She asked with a semi-playful glare.
"Of course not." He answered honestly. "I'm not Issei." Now that dig might've been a bit cruel, but he had a feeling that would be easily the best argument he could make in his favor at this point considering he was going to be living with a girl.
Still, Koneko's generosity was outdoing his expectations by far today, he mused as he looked at the girl whose golden eyes still wouldn't meet his own. "Thank you Koneko, I appreciate this." He thanked her sincerely.
"I'll prepare the Transportation Circle then, to send the two of you home." Akeno said as she once again flared her energy to form the magic circle. "Step inside and before you know it you'll be in Koneko's place." Akeno said with a grin.
Just before the pair disappeared in a flash of red light she shouted, "Don't do anything I wouldn't do!" Her giggle echoed in the room before they were out of earshot.
A faint, "Dammit Akeno!" could be heard from Lelouch before the light faded away leaving just Rias alongside her Queen and first Knight.
Lelouch yelled at Akeno for her little prank before they disappeared and reappeared in Koneko's living room.
He groaned slightly as he rose up from the floor, he didn't take transportation magic very well the first time around it seemed. He rubbed his back and noticed Koneko pulling off some couch cushions with some effort.
"Help me." She requested as she got rid of the last cushion and grabbed a small handle that had been concealed by the cushions.
Lelouch moved over and helped her pull out the bed from the couch, making sure to keep a hold of it well enough so neither of them crushed their toes on the metal frame.
The pair worked together to straighten out the sheet over it and Lelouch asked, "I'm guessing this came with the couch?" He asked sarcastically as he rubbed out any wrinkles he noticed while watching Koneko grab two pillows and a blanket from a closet. She merely nodded, trying and failing to suppress a yawn.
"Still tired from healing." She said shortly. She tossed the two pillows at the head of the bed and threw up the blanket, Lelouch grabbing the other end, straightening it out together to finish making the bed.
"You can sleep here, bathroom's upstairs next to my room." She pointed to the stairs before gesturing behind the couch. "That's the kitchen behind the living room." She finished the verbal tour, turning to go to her own room to get some sleep.
