Chapter 1717: Afternoon Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal ⑪

Shame is a strange thing. In our current situation, time stands still except for mine and Shiro-san’s, so no matter what I or Shiro-san do, the people around us can’t see or notice.
I know that should be the case, but with so many people around me, for some reason, I feel like whatever we’re doing would attract their attention, making me feel embarrassed.
That said, I just can’t leave Shiro-san with her arms outstretched, waiting for a hug, any longer, so I take a step closer and gently put my hands around her back…… moving it a little closer to her waist, hugging her close.
Perhaps because of Shiro-san’s change in outfit, the overall sensation I’m feeling is different. The sukajan has a nice texture, but the issue lies with her front.
Shiro-san may be wearing a sukajan, but the front zipper is open and she’s wearing only a shirt underneath. The sensation of her skin was more pronounced than the outfit she had earlier, as I could clearly feel Shiro-san’s ample breasts distinctly presssing against my chest.
Also, somehow, I feel like her scent is different. It’s not the slightly sweet smell of a while ago, but a clear, fresh citrus scent.
And as always, I can’t help but think that the comfort of her embrace, the pleasantness of hugging someone close, is truly addictive and frighteningly captivating.
Considering Shiro-san’s requests, it might be better to kiss her or something along those lines at this moment, but there’s also this desire in me to just continue hugging Shiro-san like this a little longer.
[That isn’t a problem at all. You can hug me even more tightly, more intimately than before, you know?]
[More intimately…… Well, putting that aside, it feels strange talking while we’re hugging each other like this. No, it’s not like I dislike it though, I think this is quite nice in its own way.]
[I agree. It’s also very nice to talk in close contact like this. It feels like it has a high level of lovey-doveyness. How about, as the situation permits, we keep on having this in the future?]
[N- No, that would be embarrassing……]
[It will be alright. I don’t mind, and if necessary, I will just stop the world’s time.]
[You’re spouting outrageous things again!?]
This was a slightly different pattern from the small talk while embracing each other pattern I had in mind but…… it truly does feel warm and pleasant, so while enjoying the current comfortable mood, the desire to experience this again emerges.
Though I say that, if I were to say it out loud, Shiro-san would likely eagerly request this at every opportunity, so I’ll keep this thought to myself. Well, considering Shiro-san can read minds, keeping it to myself might be pointless. However, if I keep it hidden within, I feel like Shiro-san would be considerate to some extent…… probably.
[Oya?]
[Ah, I’m sorry. I just sort of thought of it.]
[No, it’s rather good. Please continue.]
[Ahaha, I understand.]
While embracing Shiro-san, my hands unconsciously moved, gently stroking the back of Shiro-san’s head. Shiro-san seemed to endorse my action, even expressing her desire for me to continue, so I proceeded accordingly.
As her hair is currently tied in a ponytail, I make sure to gently stroke the surface to avoid messing up Shiro-san’s hair, but the pleasant texture of Shiro-san’s hair is truly soothing.
Her breath brushing my neck also feels ticklish…… but it feels like my feelings of love for Shiro-san are getting stronger and stronger, and the hand that was holding her waist involuntarily holds her closer.
[……Hmmm. Shiro-san, would you mind staying like this for a while longer?]
[Yes. We can stay like this as much as Kaito-san likes…… until Kaito-san is completely satisfied. Right now, time in this world literally exists only for me and Kaito-san after all……]
In response to my words, Shiro-san, seemingly finding the situation enjoyable, planted a gentle kiss on my neck. It was an act so endearing that I kissed Shiro-san’s neck in the same way, as if to cover up the feeling of the corners of my lips involuntarily rising.

Serious-senpai : [D*mn it! D*mn it! These guys really just flirted with each other for the whole chapter!!!]
? ? ? : [If you see it as a good pausing moment though, we could possibly be moving on to evening in the ……]
