[ As before, Masaoka offers a slight smile to Megumi on her teasing comments that he seems like someone who should get more kisses.
His heart does still for a second when she leans in to kiss him. More on instinct, he looks around but naturally no one reacts or even seems bothered by the display. This is the sort of world that doesn't mind these things.
But Megumi is sweet and patient with him. She doesn't seem troubled with how he stills on reflex. The kiss is warm and pleasant and comforting. The feel of her lips against his is something that he can't deny that he's missed. And she gives him room to pull away should he want to do so.
Too soon? Too fast? Those sort of thoughts slip into his thoughts even as he hesitantly rests his hands on her waist. It's just strange, I think. To be allowed this sort of thing.
Masaoka leans into the kiss, really tasting her lips and the softness of her offering. But he does lean back soon, pausing to kiss the corner of her lips like to say that he's sorry. ]
DAMN I AM THE SLOWEST
