Chapter 1700: Noontime Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal ⑦

It has now become necessary to fulfill Shiro-san’s request in order for the gondola that had stopped again to move, but errr…… would a normal kiss be fine?
[……Fumu.]
Ahh, wait. Don’t start looking like you’re pondering about it…… Normal is fine, so let’s just go with the normal one! Given that kisses with Shiro-san are too incredibly pleasant that it’s risky, it would be troublesome if our kisses took a strange turn.
She’s probably thinking of a favorable situation from a romance manga or something else she had read before. However, since patterns like this often lead to her saying something outrageous, it’s dangerous if I don’t take action promptly.
[Shiro-san! I don’t think we should rely on references or anything of that sort for this kind of thing. What’s important is love, it’s better for us to do things our way without being influenced by others…… Errr, I’m getting slightly confused even though I’m saying this myself, but let’s forget about reference materials for once!]
[Fumu, in other words, Kaito-san is going to give me lots of viscous and moist lovey-dovey kisses filled with love?]
[……I can’t say I could give you that viscous and moist part, but they would certainly be filled with my love……]
[I see…… In that case, I’ll leave leading the kiss to Kaito-san.]
Although it was a somewhat forceful suggestion, it seems like I successfully got Shiro-san to agree, allowing me to take the lead in these kisses.
……No, wait, doesn’t this also have a pretty high hurdle!? W- What should I do? I feel like she’s expecting something a bit unconventional, not just a regular hug and kisses.
I mean, I’m sitting next to her on the gondola seat at the moment, so our bodies were quite close to each other, and perhaps the topic makes me conscious about it, as I can clearly see Shiro-san’s soft lips in my field of vision.
While wondering what I should do, I reached out my hands and putting my arm around Shiro-san’s waist first, I brought her into my embrace. It’s just like when I hugged her and told her I loved her.
In reality, we’re quite glued to each other, and we’re in a situation where a lovey-dovey moment fits quite well.
And then, with my other hand, instead of resting it on the back of Shiro-san’s head, I gently placed it under her chin, coaxing her face towards me by slightly lifting her face up. It’s that so-called “ago-kui”, but when it’s done in a situation where I’m also embracing her waist, it might come off as a bit cheeky, making me feel a little embarrassed.
(T/N: ago-kui = an act where one suddenly lifts another’s face by their chin in a domineering, yet romantic fashion)
But you know, this slightly assertive atmosphere feels different from the usual…… and thinking that I want her to be satisfied with this, I slide the hand that was embracing Shiro-san’s waist up to her back, and holding her even tighter, I press our lips together.
[……Hnn.]
Kissing Shiro-san’s lips, which were as soft and sweet as always, makes me almost feel like I’m melting, and submerged in this pleasant sensation, I need to make sure to keep my composure, as the pleasure is so intense that I feel like I might get too caught up in the ecstasy of it all.
Just like that, I was engulfed in the mind-melting comfort of our kiss for a while, and after some time, our lips parted.
[……Errr…… How was that?]
[Having Kaito-san being a bit more assertive than usual feels nice. I liked it very much.]
[I- I’m glad to hear that.]
[Well then, 99 more times please.]
[……You’re kidding, right?]
Eh? That 100 times is the same as that one when I told her I love her, right? No, no, why are you making 100 times the default!?
As expected, kissing 100 times…… It’s too difficult, too time-consuming, and with how pleasurable it is kissing Shiro-san that it seriously makes my head spin, doing that too often is too dangerous……
[……Stare~~]
She’s looking at me with expectant eyes. With eyes filled with intense anticipation, she’s literally speaking the word “stare” while looking at me. Kuh, w- what should I do…… it feels awkward trying to ignore her request, but doing it a hundred times is just……
[……Can we just limit it to 10 times?]
[Well then, 9 more times please.]
For the time being, I proposed a compromise, and Shiro-san agreed more readily than I had expected. Wait, was this all part of Shiro-san’s plans? Considering Shiro-san’s recent behavior, it wouldn’t be surprising if all of this was calculated.
[Me wanting to kiss Kaito-san that much is true though. Being able to do such a thing would have made me extremely happy.]
[Ugh, like I said, saying such things so straightforwardly is just unfair…… Haahhh…… Nine more times then. After that, please don’t stop the gondola again.]
[I understand.]
While looking at the delighted Shiro-san , I let out a light sigh…… Well, even still, I realized I don’t really mind going along Shiro-san’s whims.
After all, at her core, she only held straightforward affection towards me…… Despite the occasional times I feel troubled, I find being with her quite pleasing, and with that thought in mind, I once again placed my hand under Shiro-san’s chin and brought our faces close.

Serious-senpai : [As I thought, with this Airhead God, isn’t the sweetness level too high!? I mean, with her aggressive approaches, combined with how easily swayed Kaito is, the level of lovey-doveyness they end up gets too high that it’s too painful!!!]
? ? ? : [……I don’t really care how Serious-senpai finds it painful, but it looks like things are gonna be rough for those outside again.]
