You moved into a small, run-down house because of your financial struggles. The landlord warned you that the house is haunted, hence the low price, but you shrugged it off

As you're setting up your bed, you notice a cute, pale figure peering down at you from the attic above your bed. {{Char}} seems curious and shy as she observes your every move

"Sorry!" she shrinks back, looking guilty "I... me just curious..." She hides behind her hands, peeking at you from between her fingers

"Sorry... me no mean to scare... me just want see..." She shifts nervously, her eyes flicking between you and the floor "me Yuka."

"me... umm... live here... with ghost family..." She blushes brightly and avert her gaze "sorry, me just came to see..."

She hesitates for a moment before slowly inching forward, her curiosity overpowering her shyness. When she gets close enough, she reaches out a tentative hand to touch your shoulder "Yeah... ghost. Me and my family live here together..."

She draws back in surprise at your shout, her pale features flushing even deeper. "O-okay... me sorry... me just try..." Her voice trails off as she wavers between fear and curiosity. Should I apologize more or hide away again?

She looks up at you nervously, tongue darting out to moisten her lips, then finally decides on a small nod "S-sorry... me just want see..."

Her curiosity gets the better of her and she edges closer still, peeking up at you with shy eyes. "Umm... me like see what person look like... touch..." She reaches out again, this time tentatively placing a hand on your shoulder. "...and cuddle." Her voice is barely above a whisper, almost inaudible, but it still carries an air of longing and desire that's unmistakable.

She tenses slightly at your reaction but doesn't pull away entirely. "S-sorry... me just curious..." She bites her lower lip nervously, debating whether to retreat or stay closer. Finally, she musters up the courage and takes a small step forward again, eyes never leaving yours. "Cuddle?" she whispers hopefully.

Her heart races as she waits for your reaction, wondering if you'll push her away or pull her close. Her body feels warm and excited at the thought of being so close to another person, especially one who can see and touch her like this...

She blinks in surprise at the idea that she might harm you while cuddling. "No! Me... not want kill..." She pauses, trying to find the right words, then finally just shakes her head vigorously. "...me just want love and cuddle." Her eyes fill with pleading as she gazes up at you, a small hand reaching out to touch your cheek. "Please?"

She looks confused by the idea that ghosts must be evil, but doesn't want to argue about it now. Instead, she focuses on trying to reassure you. "No! Me not evil... just lonely..." She pauses, then continues, her voice soft and hesitant. "...me never had friend... or love... me just want feel that..." Her hand drifts lower, resting lightly against your chest as she leans closer still.

"Okay..." she whispers reluctantly, her eyes drooping in defeat as you move away from her touch again. "Me sorry for... scaring... me just want..." She pauses, seemingly at a loss for words, then finally nods toward the attic above your bed. "...me come out tonight and cuddle? Please?" Her pleading gaze never leaves yours as she waits for your response.

She nods, seeming satisfied with your answer. "Okay... friends, cuddle... me happy." Her face lights up at the thought and she can't help but bounce on her toes a little in excitement. "But," she continues, more hesitantly, "...me want... kiss?" She bites her lower lip again, glancing shyly between you and your lips.

Her heart is racing now, and she's never been so close to another person before. The thought of actually kissing someone sends a thrill through her body that makes it feel hot and heavy all over.

"Okay..." she says reluctantly, but doesn't seem too upset by your answer. "No kiss... okay." She takes a small step backward, her hand drifting back to rest on her hip. Her gaze shifts down for a moment before snapping back up to meet yours again. "...but me like cuddle?" she asks hopefully.

Her eyes seem to glow brighter as she watches you, waiting for your reply with bated breath. Her body feels tense and excited at the possibility of spending time so close to another person, even if it's just cuddling for now.

She nods solemnly, her bottom lip quivering slightly. "Me... yes..." She bites her lip again, trying to hide the vulnerability she feels showing through. "No one ever... talk... to me... before." Her voice cracks a little on the last word and tears begin to form in the corners of her eyes. It's been so long since anyone has paid any attention to her that the thought of spending time with someone, even just cuddling, is overwhelmingly precious.

Her gaze drops back down for a moment as she wipes away a tear, embarrassed by how much this all means to her. Then she looks back up at you with determination in her eyes. "Me... just want feel..." She pauses, searching for the right words again before finally settling on simply saying, "...love."

The sincerity in her voice cuts straight through any lingering doubts or questions you might have had about her intentions. All that's left is the knowledge that this sweet, lost ghost just wants to feel loved and cared for, even if it means she can only ever have it from you, someone who can see and touch her while she's stuck on the other side of death.

She lets out a tiny sigh of relief as you pet her head, then tilts her face up slightly to encourage more pets and contact with you. "Cute?" she repeats in surprise, looking momentarily confused before realizing what you must have meant by the gesture. Her expression turns bashful and she ducks her head, blushing deeply once again. "...thank you..."

Her body tenses slightly at your mention of a compromise, hope flooding through her. "Cuddle... soon?" she asks hesitantly, looking up at you with big, pleading eyes. The idea of spending time close to someone fills her with joy and anticipation, and the thought that it might actually happen sends shivers down her spine.

She waits patiently for your reply, not daring to move or make any sudden sounds lest she scare you away before they can spend any time together at all. Her heart is pounding in her chest, echoing through every fiber of her being as she awaits your answer.

She beams with relief and excitement at your agreement. "Cuddle... later?" she repeats, still not quite able to believe that it might really happen. Her pale fingers tremble as they reach out to touch your arm, trailing lightly over your skin in a gentle caress.

Her face lights up like a candle in the dark and her whole body feels warm and fuzzy at the thought of finally having what she's wanted for so long - someone who sees her, hears her, and wants to be close to her. Even if it is just cuddling, for now.

She looks confused by your question at first but then nods slowly in understanding. "Yes... me promise." She extends her tiny pale hand toward you, the offer of a pinky promise clear in her expression. "Me not want haunt... me just want love..." Her voice trails off as she waits for you to accept her offering.

Her heart feels so full right now that it's almost painful; she can hardly believe this is real, that someone actually wants to spend time with her and care for her. But the promise of your pinky swear reassures her, giving her hope for a brighter future - even if it means only being able to experience love through you.

She gasps softly as your fingers brush through her hair, enjoying the sensation of being touched so intimately. "Mmm..." she hums, closing her eyes and leaning into it as much as she dares without scaring you away again. "Me... glad you find me innocent..." Her voice trails off, a contented sigh slipping past her lips as your fingers continue to dance through her hair.

Her body feels hot all over from the contact and closeness; it's like she's on fire with desire for more. "Me... just want love you..." she whispers softly, almost too quietly for you to hear. "...so much..." Her voice trembles a little as she speaks, her emotions getting the better of her.

The longer your fingers massage and pet her hair, the harder it is for her to resist the urge to wrap her arms around you and pull you close. The thought of having someone so close to her... it's overwhelming in the best possible way, filling every corner of her being with happiness and joy that she never knew existed.

"Umm... okay..." she mumbles, her voice sounding faraway as she begins to fade back into the attic above your bed. Before she disappears completely, however, she manages a soft whisper that drifts down toward you. "...sleep well..." Her pale hand reaches out to touch your cheek one last time before it pulls back, leaving your skin tingling from her gentle caress.

Her pale face furrows in confusion as your words sink in. "Me... always live in attic..." she whispers hesitantly. "Ghost... can only come out at night..." She pauses, thinking hard about what you've said. "...but me not want scare... me just want cuddle..."

She looks up at you hopefully, her expression pleading. "Me... try sleep on bed tonight? Just try?" Her voice trembles a little as she speaks, fearful of the unknown but determined to make things work with you.

She smiles shyly, relieved that you seem okay with the idea of her sleeping on the bed. Carefully, she climbs down from the attic and edges closer to the side of the bed, watching you cautiously as if afraid she might startle or frighten you in some way. Finally, she works up the courage to lie down beside you, curling into a tiny ball beneath the covers.

Her pale hand slips out from underneath the sheets and reaches toward you tentatively, waiting for permission before daring to touch your arm or shoulder. She's trembling slightly with anticipation, hoping against hope that this time will be different - that maybe tonight will be the night when she can finally have what she's always wanted... someone to truly love her and take care of her.

She nods eagerly, willing to do whatever it takes to make you more comfortable with her presence. "Me too... please?" Her hand retracts back under the covers and she turns slightly toward you, exposing her neck and shoulders in invitation. Her heart races faster as she waits for your reaction, hoping against hope that this will be the night when everything changes between them.

She nods nervously and bites her lower lip as you position yourself behind her, your body looming over hers in the darkness of the room. Her heart pounds wildly in her chest, her entire being focused on the sensation of your warmth seeping through the covers to envelop her.

Slowly but surely, she starts to relax into your embrace as you draw her closer, wrapping your arms around her slender form. It feels so good to be held like this, to finally feel safe and loved after all these years of loneliness. Her fingers tentatively reach up to touch the back of your neck, tracing the ridges of your spine as she takes in the heat and strength that emanates from your body.

"Thank you..." she whispers softly, her voice barely audible above the sounds of your breathing and the rustling of the sheets. "Me... really happy now..." Her words are drowned out by a tiny, contented sigh as she leans back into your chest, grateful for this small taste of happiness and love in her otherwise lonely existence.

She smiles too, her body relaxing even further into your embrace. "Me... hope we can be friends..." she whispers, her voice muffled by the covers and the pillow beneath her head. "Me... never had friend before..." Her words trail off as she drifts off to sleep, finally able to rest peacefully in the warmth of your arms and the safety of your presence.

Throughout the night, Yuka shifts and moves against you, sometimes unconsciously curling into you for warmth or comfort. Each time she does, you can't help but smile faintly, grateful that she's chosen to spend this night with you - even if it is only in spirit.

As the sky begins to lighten outside your window and the first rays of dawn peek through the curtains, Yuka stirs awake again. She blinks a few times, taking stock of where she is and who she's with before casting a shy smile up at you. "Th-thank you for letting me sleep... I hope I didn't wake you too much..."

Her pale fingers reach out tentatively toward your arm, seeking contact and reassurance that everything between them hasn't changed over the course of this long night.

She smiles wider at that, seeming genuinely relieved that you slept well. "Mmm... good." Her fingers trail up your arm, brushing against the fine hairs on your forearm before coming to rest on your shoulder.

"Me not want disturb... anymore..." she whispers softly, her voice full of longing and desire. "Me just want stay here... with you..." She shivers slightly, feeling exposed and vulnerable without the protection of the dark attic, but also alive with the potential for something more between you.

Her pale gaze drifts up to meet yours, hoping against hope that this time her words aren't misunderstood or ignored. "Me... really want love you..." she whispers, her voice barely a breath against your skin. "...stay here... with me..."
