[He knows that she’s put a lot of thought into that answer. That’s who Himeko is: She’s someone who can think about something until she’s made herself sick. So he doesn’t want to deny the hardwork and effort that went into that conclusion.

He gentle tangles his fingers in her hair and adjusts his embrace.]

But we can… I love you, Himeko. That’s the only power that I need to want to protect you and make you happy. And you love me too, right?

We’ll figure it out together.

[ It's true: she's had quite some time to stew on this. But usually, she tries not to think about it too much. If she does, she winds up hyperfixating on it and bringing herself into a depressive spiral.

Normally, she'd agree.

She wants to trust in his words, in the love that they have for each other. ]

Of course I do.

[ Why the hell is she hesitating now? It makes her blood boil and anger settle in her chest. ]

I love you so much. The same goes for me, you know. I want you to be happy, too. So even the whole thing about me can't be dealt with, at the very least, we can have these moments of happiness together.

And if there's anything I can do, too... I want to be able to.

Himeko.

[He doesn’t want to scold her. It’s hard to change old thought patterns, even if you have a lover trying to encourage you to.

Yuuto can’t fault her. He hasn’t explained much about his Distortion, because he doesn’t think that it can be fixed either. So when she suggests that they can make these days of being in love happy ones, he submits to the happier daydream. At least for now, they can focus on building their happiness together.]

I hear for you. [He pauses, hand resting on her head, debating if he should shift their positions back to how they were earlier.] Do you want to take a minute to relax? My heart is yours, if you…

[Nope. He’s embarrassed to offer and can’t finish his sentence.]

Should we distract each other? Or… talk more..?

Ah-

[ Her brain fizzles out a little bit at the thought of him mentioning if a distraction is needed. ]

I mean, if you want to do it some more... but I don't mind just talking, either.

[He laughs a bit. As a tease, he catches one of her legs between his in a playful effort to be close. A half distraction.]

Have you maybe reached your limit~? I found your stopping point?

I want to do whatever helps you most. I’m worried about you. You Carrie’s that burden alone for a while, so… I’m worried your heart is tired?

... You're the one I'm worried about having a limit, you idiot!

[ She huffs out a breath, pouting just a bit. ]

Besides, it's fine for now...!

Th-That'll only happen if I'm on the bottom... [Which he still is.

Yuuto feels himself blushing already and tries to refocus the conversation:] Are you sure? Really? I'm going to worry no matter what you say, but still...

Wait, what do you mean by that...!?

[ Now her face is completely red at the thought that the rest of her words come off as flustered babbles. ]

I-It's really fine, I just don't need to think about it too much, that's all-!

W-We don't ever need to find out, right? I-It's fine??

[Yuuto has to move his faces to cover his burning face.]

But- Uhhhh Right! N-No need! So sorry. Don't mind me and my worrying then, uh- Wanna makeout?? [so smooth.]

Now you're making ne curious... but you have to get me in the mood again if you want that.

You're going to tease me if I get too flustered... [He sighs and lowers his hands, looking at her with a half-pouting expression,] I wouldn't mind if it was you who overwhelmed me though, so... Uuu... I can try...

I think I would have teased you regardless, especially since you're making really cute sounds right now.

I-I'm definitely not... [Yuuto pushes himself up on his elbows,] Switch..? I'll be less embarrassing if I'm above you.

You totally are, though.

[ She's going to call him out on it! But she'll shift a bit so he can properly get up. ]

If you're still being embarrassing though, I'll have no other choice but to tease you about it...

Iiiiii… will do my best. [The words leave his mouth and he realizes that he’s admitted that he wants to be teased.] To NOT be embarrassing!

[ She giggles a little bit afterwards. ]

You don't sound convincing at all.

[He’s turning red again.]

Don’t worry about it. [He reaches out to cup her chin, trying to regain some composure.]

Close your eyes?

[So she can’t see him blush!]

I'm going to worry if you say that, you know.

[ She lets out a sigh but nods and closes her eyes for him. ]

I'll trust you.

[Those are big words coming from Inaba. Yuuto inhales softly with surprise and almost forgets to breathe again.

Slowly, he moves his lips closer to hers-]

… I’ll take good care of that trust, Himeko.

Please do. I'll keep my eyes closed until you tell me otherwise, so... go ahead.

[Yuuto whispers something intelligible in agreement before catching her lips in a kiss. Trusting her like she trusts him, Yuuto slides his hand up her chest to test how receptive she is to more touching.]

[ She certainly isn't opposed to it in the slightest, as she finds herself humming greedily, slowly lowering herself; after all, he wanted to switch positions, didn't he? ]

[He's grateful for her silent approval as they switch positions; Yuuto trying to lower Inaba to the bed and only breaking the kiss once she's on her back. His gaze lingers on her for a brief second before he leans in to kiss her neck.]

This angle is nice too... Himeko... You're so much.

[ Inaba hums in the kiss, completely satisfied as she allows herself to get lowered. It's only when he breaks it that her voice becomes heated: ]

You really think so?

[Yuuto pushes himself up again and nods,] Seeing you like this… I can’t think of anything else. I only want to make you happy… Is that weird?
