[dereban]

There is... a lot...

[spacialeyes]

We can do that first? Before I distract you..?

[dereban]

Most of the things I want are distracting.

[spacialeyes]

Oh.

[It takes him a moment to fully realize that they’re on the same page. Then he laughs, quietly and shyly, as his gaze flits around the room awkwardly.]

… Then. Let’s forget about everything else for a few minutes?

[dereban]

. . . is that okay?

[spacialeyes]

If it’s what you want then..? Mm.

[He shifts closer, reaching out tentatively to caress her cheek.]

I love making you happy.

[dereban]

Ha...

[A soft smile blossoms onto her face as she leans into his touch.]

Well, I enjoy it, too -- but more importantly, it's even better when we're both happy.

[spacialeyes]

It’s hard not to be happy when we’re together like this… Hm? [Smiling himself, Yuuto leans closer to kiss her cheek.] I love you, Himeko.

[dereban]

Now you're just being a sap.

[There's a tease in the way she answers, grin widening ever so slightly.]

Then again, you've been like this all month.

[spacialeyes]

Mm. And I’ll continue to be a ‘sap’ until the end of your birthday month.

[They both probably know that’s not true. He’ll be a sap for much longer than that. Something he hopes that she understands as he kisses her cheek again, then moves to kiss the base of her neck.]

Is that alright?

[dereban]

Hmm? Does that mean I'm just like Cinderella and the spell breaks at midnight?

[It's spoken with a teasing lilt to her voice, grinning wide.]

[spacialeyes]

I don’t think that any spell could make me stop wanting to spoil you..?

[He mumbles against her skin, only then slowly pulling away from kissing her to sit up. The weight of his words is suddenly making him feel shy.]

… But just in case? I’ll be sure to spoil you a lot before then..? If that’s okay?

[dereban]

Jeez, [Inaba breathes out, her cheeks still dusted pink.] it is still my birthday, so.... I want to.

[spacialeyes]

Hmm? Want to~

[He’s teasing, if only to try to regain some confidence. Leaning in with his words, Yuuto pushes her hair behind her ear as he brings himself closer. She’s not the only one with pink cheeks.]

What~?

[dereban]

[She brings her hands to his cheeks and pinches them with a bit of a frown.]

Don't tease me.

[spacialeyes]

[Yuuto laughs, leaning in towards the hand that is pinching him.]

Right, right… I think I’m teasing myself too. I don’t want to wait.

[dereban]

Well, you started it. Geez.

[spacialeyes]

Heh… I guess I hoped that I could be more patient. That’s what a Time kami should be, right?

[dereban]

Well, I suppose, but... that doesn't mean that I have to be. Especially today.

[spacialeyes]

That’s something that I like about you..? Times feels so different when we’re together. And I don’t have to be anywhere or anytime except yours.

[dereban]

What, you want me to be more stubborn? I didn't know that was what you were into, Yuuto.

[She teases a little bit, grinning wide.]

[spacialeyes]

Uu- Now you’re making it seem weird..! [He looks away, voice becoming softer and less confident as he fails to recover:] It’s nice that you know what you want, since I know I want to make you happy a-and… Auu… Stubborn can be cute when it’s you! Everything is good when it’s you?

[dereban]

You're way too biased. And more importantly, why "everything"... you're sounding like a masochist.

[spacialeyes]

I- I’m not… not a-

[He can’t lie, but maybe being honest about his masochistic leanings is a bad idea too.]

… I really love you, okay? I’m very biased! A-and proud to be so.

[dereban]

...You didn't finish that sentence.
