ARCHIVED HEARTS - The Kiss

He already knew...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHBeX3NNJb

I was about to embarrass myself.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3IapAea6h

Without saying a word...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoA8B7LoQ0M

Rei gently carried me in his arms once again.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSVCzOOMYF

Ignoring all my protests.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZS0YpWft5c

He took me back to our room.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAZF7HuD1o

I looked up at him and giggled.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtiBtPrlOU

"You know what?"

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ovVxoAIEh

He glanced down at me.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrMfbtHYIE

"What is it, My Lady?"

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPylYOjPNf

I smiled lazily.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshzxvHZyar

"You've been carrying a potato this whole time."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLEkn9hvyf

He let out a soft laugh.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzO6rEtxETA

"For me..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qAhQVdtZi

"You weigh nothing, My Lady."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjfvRgEMp4

I smiled.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2ZSLTqSP4

"...Yeah."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkpvWx0iAW

"That's exactly the problem."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgX3HHEBeU

He tilted his head.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErxqmk7Itm

"...Problem?"

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNhrWZwARa

"I don't know..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3jexAV0VF

"Whenever you're around..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiC8x0u1w3

"I keep blushing."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBM6sAA7YWI

"When I can't find you..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyHzcahrEO

"I get worried."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGY8m2YUSpx

"When you smile..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9NOlUhxUs

"It makes me smile too."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54CBFU1LqW

I looked into his bright blue eyes.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXwtQKrDxM

"I don't know why this keeps happening to me..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1pM5Nc2Ap

"...Maybe I'm broken."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXUd6Pbkvi

Rei stopped walking.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPf705dVi6

He looked at me quietly.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2sz0g01dw

"My Lady..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dRqkY7d8N

"You are not broken."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2trHs7kcro

"I have analyzed you many times."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBj3h7zLwn

"Everything appears normal."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrCRDlifvu

I couldn't help but laugh.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsOz0oAR7S

"...You're hopeless."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdZLMqosab

For a moment...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Q41yh1isQ

Neither of us spoke.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kw6XZNQdH

I slowly moved closer.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IEnvq3jN2

Only a few inches separated our faces.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5vDzhK8n1

Rei remained perfectly still.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPaNBaQojk

"My Lady...?"

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb0h43JLcY

Without thinking any further...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnlZ54hRnE

I gently kissed him on the lips.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitbixrqZNC

It lasted only a brief second.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2IyxyeiNp

When I pulled away...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PmqQlQaAF

A sleepy smile appeared on my face.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2efXBBqrb

"...Goodnight, Rei."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWS4o7U475

Before he could respond...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeeymGTxd7

The caffeine finally took over.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NbmuCX2kF

My eyes closed.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn257CsPDHd

And I passed out in his arms.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVOEdfoh0B

Rei carefully adjusted his grip so I wouldn't fall.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTsBBTnPUN

He carried me to the bed.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcx74BZUDg0

As gently as if I were the most fragile thing in the world.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulIIzRZOUQ

He tucked the blanket around me.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIPni0b9ew

Brushed a loose strand of hair away from my face.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4WZL35IjB

Then quietly stepped back.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLNDG98w0B

"My Lady..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBCKPfOi1m

"I hope you have pleasant dreams."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5va97xtj1

Just then...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJvOlrFppp

A warning appeared before his eyes.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVkNB8P3w5

Warning...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnGnA8f84g

New emotion detected.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtZnwtDMLl

Emotion unidentified.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuCcvyA2ZZ

He frowned.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5La8ySq8L

"My system..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyawK6E4Dq

"...is behaving abnormally."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ100NIKFFUR

Without realizing it...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRp60Ql3keK

He slowly touched his own lips.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrylD7a5Vm

The place where she had kissed him.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJPrIvCQip

"...Why..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS18RCbDSHx

"...does this feel important?"

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjp2mS1B2Y

Curious...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3mGZosi3x

He walked to the computer.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxshKeUc34

The screen lit up.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm33FJZiz64

He typed a single word.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYVwsgQwdx

Kiss?

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkrsEmpDkI

Thousands of results appeared.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSGZhvenhE

He began reading.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWOFQ38Mdv

A kiss is a gesture that can express affection, trust, emotional closeness, or romantic love.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JtZgBLeEl

Rei stared at the screen.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KM6FCDDtr

"...Affection."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZJeLcqK3f

"...Love."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADFJMWCSKR

He quietly turned his head and looked at Aina, peacefully sleeping.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfLleIxj5i

His processor began calculating.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG6HaJf8Yw

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzJkSjPdsg

The screen paused.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACb4IwB0xT

Then a new line appeared.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6FhGUkuef

Possible conclusion:

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDh0d5LJl71

You may be experiencing... love.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8FgKFmMGp

Rei remained silent.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2Vzl0JQVm

"...Love?"

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydUE6s3BMD

He looked back at Aina.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPDmfGaNOi

Then gently smiled.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOGRWOLFup

A real smile.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRK4sUl4iW

Small...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUo7joKBGdW

Warm...

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2jW9aXjQd

And completely unprogrammed.

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirFiwLgORh

"...I think..."

6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKUQyoGdBB

"...I would like to learn more."
