Chapter 1710: Afternoon Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal ⑤
The person usually doing the kabedon to another usually has the initiative. No, in fact, I probably did have the initiative in this exchange. Shiro-san is taking a wait-and-see att.i.tude, and there are no instructions as to what I should do. I understand her thought that I should do what I want to do.
I was bewildered by the unfamiliarity of this situation, but somehow, relying on my knowledge of manga and drama, I put my free hand on Shiro-san’s cheek and as if to peer into her face, I brought my face close to her.
Is doing this really alright? I’m worried that this action is only allowed for handsome dudes, and perhaps attempting to do this just makes me look ridiculous, but fortunately, since there’s no one watching us, I put these feelings aside and spoke.
[Looking at you like this, you sure are quite beautiful, Shiro-san. Translucent white skin, these golden eyes so beautiful that they seem to suck me in…… Just looking at you like this is enough to fill me with love towards you.]
I- Is something like that alright? I mean, looking at this situation, doesn’t it kinda feel like I’m hitting on her!? If anything, I’m embarra.s.sed to say all those myself, and when I get home, I’ll probably remember it and faint in the cringe……
Moreover, isn’t the latter part going to sound more like pretentious rather than aggressive? Also, to Shiro-san, who can read minds, is there any point in keeping appearances when I’m this fl.u.s.tered inside…… Let’s just push through with the momentum.
Perhaps pushed through by fl.u.s.tered thoughts, with some desperation in mind, I pressed my lips against Shiro-san. As I’m currently taller than her, it was like my lips were covering hers, pressing down from above…… I feel like I might have become a bit rougher than intended though.
Just like that, I pressed our lips deeply on top of each other, and after a hot kiss, I slowly pulled my face away. With my one hand still on Shiro-san’s cheek, Shiro-san looked at me with her beautiful golden eyes.
How should I say this…… My heart was pounding almost annoyingly fast, and seemingly flushed with heat, I felt my body getting warm. In this situation that was unlike usual, perhaps feeling slightly fl.u.s.tered, I felt like I was carried away by the heat.
Without saying a word, I locked eyes with Shiro-san. I gradually regained my composure, feeling a sense of embarra.s.sment welling up within me…… but before my thoughts could settle, with a slight blush on her cheek, Shiro-san softly spoke.
[……This kind of thing is also fantastic, filling me with happiness. Kaito-san, I’d like to have more kisses. Whether it’s the rough or the gentle ones…… I like both of these kisses. Fortunately, it’s just the two of us and we have plenty of time. And so, I’d like to have more kisses.]
[……In the end, I’m not really sure if I’m actually taking the initiative or not but…… well, I can just think about that later.]
Demanding for more kisses here just isn’t fair. I mean, her timing is just too exquisite. Of course, there’s no way I can resist…… I mean, there isn’t really any need for me to resist at all, but anyhow, I laid my lips on Shiro-san’s again.
In this kabedon situation, where I should be the one taking the lead, and where I actually am the one initiating the kiss…… I feel that Shiro-san is accepting of my every action.
However, even so, it still feels like I’m somehow being skillfully maneuvered in the palm of her hand…… Well, I don’t really feel like that’s a bad thing, and even though I say all sorts of things, I’m filled with happiness.
Although I got this feeling that we might get lost in a really long kiss and end up indulging in our time together, somewhere in my heart’s calm corners, I thought about taking a breather before the situation truly became unstoppable.
(I don’t mind if it truly becomes unstoppable though?)
Nonchalantly saying such a killing phrase is just too frightening. Seriously, it’s really…… a fascinating proposal, but we’re still in the middle of our date in the Founding Festival now, so let’s not forget the original purpose of this event.
While continuing our kiss, I responded to the voice that resounded in my mind. Honestly, it felt dangerously close. If I were to be carried away by the heat before regaining a certain level of composure, especially considering that we were alone, there might have been a real possibility of things getting out of control.
Well, considering that there was a bit of a pause before Shiro-san telepathically told me that, she must have understood this herself and called out to me after I had regained some of my composure.
That might have just been within my perception but…… It does feel like, instead of taking action from being swept away by the situation, it was a message wanting me to approach her willingly after careful consideration. As such a thought crossed my mind, I felt my face heating up.
? ? ? : [Arehh? Where’s Serious-senpai?]
Makina : [Over there, turned into sugar.]
? ? ? : [Fumu…… So, what are you holding in your hand, Makina?]
Makina : [Sugar toast! ? ? ?, you want some too?]
? ? ? : [……Every time Serious-senpai transforms, you choose to eat her immediately without hesitation or indecisiveness…… You do realize how much of a whacko you are, right……]
Makina : [Sugar toast is delicious though? The trick is to spread a little b.u.t.ter on it.]
? ? ? : [We aren’t talking about that……]
