Max picked Jennifer out first from the cab. Seeing Machina following him on her own, he paid the cab driver with a €20 bill and couldn't take the change because Jennifer almost slipped from his hands.
Taking her into both his arms like a princess, he walked ahead while Machina followed him like a zombie. He took Jennifer to his apartment, even though he didn't want to. Her soft body melted against his hands like a marshmallow, and wherever he touched, she felt soft and squeezy.
He took her to the smaller bedroom he had decided to give Machina and gently placed her down on the soft bed. As he was about to straighten up, Jennifer's eyes slowly opened. With a faint smile, she pulled him toward her. To keep from falling on her, he placed his hand against her chest, and the feeling caught him off guard—full, warm, firm, yet incredibly soft beneath his palm.
His eyes went wide. He tried to pull his hand back in a hurry, but her hand caught his and held it there as she gently shook her head. Max didn't know what to do in that moment, his heartbeat picking up fast. His instincts took over, and his hand began to move softly, gently fondling her round breast.
"Mmph."
A quiet moan slipped from her lips, but Max could see she was struggling to stay awake. After a few seconds, he slowly loosened his grip and pulled his hand away. He leaned down and kissed her on the forehead instead. With a soft, satisfied smile, she drifted off to sleep almost instantly, and Max finally eased back as well.
As he turned around, a shadowy blur hugged him tight. Machina was tall and heavier, and if he hadn't gotten those physical boosts from the system a few hours ago, he might have fallen on his back and hurt himself in the process. Instead, he only took a step back to steady himself.
~ Master, should we make love? ~
~ You're drunk. I thought you couldn't get drunk ~
~ I can in my human form. If you command, I can change into combat form, and this will wear off ~
Max picked her up as well, her nose brushing against his bare neck, warm and close. She breathed there on purpose, slow and soft. They spoke in hushed voices as he laid her down beside Jennifer, then pulled a quilt over both of them.
"Don't need. Sleep tight."
He kissed her on the forehead as well, but she did something unexpected. She pulled her shoulderless gown down, and a very large, round, firm breast came into his view. Even with its size, it didn't fall to the side, and her pink, erect nipple moved slightly with her breathing. It looked tempting, but her eyes were clearly intoxicated.
"Stupid!! Jennifer is still here."
He quickly covered her chest with the quilt and looked at her angrily. Machina instantly showed regret. She had wanted to please him like Jennifer, but instead she got scolded.
"Sigh… don't do this in front of other people."
Seeing she was about to cry, Max gently patted her head and softly told her not to do this when others were present. She nodded slowly. Max stood up with a sigh. His penis was hard like a rod, but both his heart and his mind refused to do anything he might regret later.
I'm no gentleman, but I'm no saint either. Sigh… when they're less drunk—or not drunk at all—that would be better.
Max stood under the cold shower for five straight minutes, giving himself a quiet pep talk the whole time. He tried to calm himself down. He was too horny right now, and he didn't like the fact that he couldn't control the urge very well.
Soon, I have to do something about this—soon.
After calming himself down, he put on a woolly, fluffy pajama set and slipped into his soft bed. His body wasn't very tired, so he browsed through some university details and past orientation videos. After setting an alarm for 05:00 in the morning, he peacefully fell asleep.
*BUZZ*
As soon as the alarm buzzed, his eyes snapped open. He could hear some noise just outside his bedroom, so he checked first. He saw Machina cleaning the couch and the dining table, which he had forgotten to clean yesterday.
"Good Morning, Machina."
"Good Morning, Master."
"You can call me Max, I'll get ready to jog. Want to tag along? "
"I can't, I forgot to bring the clothes from Jenny's apartment. After shopping, she took me to her apartment, and I left all my clothes there. I will make breakfast using the oven for you in the meantime "
"Alright, but wear some of my clothes to work for now; they'll fit you."
Max smiled, then locked his door, changed into more sporty clothes, and wore his sports shoes. Machina was working while wearing the shoulderless gown; it was pleasing to the eye but looked extremely uncomfortable while working.
"Alright, take care of the home and wake Jennifer up. She will also need to go to university today "
Max saw Machina seated on the couch, waiting for him to leave. He patted her on the shoulder and took the stairs down. The morning wind felt refreshing. His new life was starting today. He was looking forward to how his university life would be and whether he could make friends this time around.
There were very few people on his street, but when he came back an hour later, he saw couples running and old people coming down from nearby buildings. He didn't even break a sweat properly, so he ran fast for another half hour.
Coming back to his apartment, he saw Jennifer already up and eating some kind of sandwich. Seeing him, her face flushed red. She looked away for a second. Machina was doing something by the oven.
"Good Morning "
"M… Morning."
Jennifer couldn't even look his way properly. Machina turned around with a smile as soon as she heard Max's voice. She looked far tamer than yesterday. She looked completely normal, which made Max a little suspicious, but it was a good change nonetheless.
"Should I give you the breakfast now? "
"No, I will take a shower, then you can give me breakfast "
Max went straight to the shower. He was sweating heavily even in this cold weather because he ran as fast as he could in the last half hour. He wore a nice branded blue T-shirt, a black leather jacket, black jeans, and his most expensive black boots.
I look… nice? so even I can look nice.
Shaking his head at his own reflection, he took his new backpack, sat down at the dining table, and looked around for Jennifer. Machina presented bread with melted cheese inside and avocado on the side.
"She left a few minutes ago while you were showering. She told you to wait at the building's front gate; she will take you with her."
"Oh, okay."
Max nodded his head, then took the bread in his hand. It looked delicious. He was about to take a bite when a list of system pop-ups unfolded in front of his eyes.
