[ Rinneās thought this ever since he first laid his eyes on her, singing and dancing a song foreign to him on a screen bigger than anything heās ever seen, but Ai is pretty. Heās the heir of his fatherās title and his hometownās guiding light, but his heart is simple, and Ai is really pretty. She shines so brightly, he used to wonder if anyone had ever tried to reach out and touch her. If sheās anything like himāand he knows she isāRinne hopes she knows sheās free to look and free to touch, from his hands to his very bones. After all, he made this body so someone could love it.
But when Rinne feels the weight of Aiās stare, he swallows thickly. No one has ever paid him so much attention before. He loves her down to her collarbones and the stray wet strands of hair sticking to her cheeksādoes she see him that way? He prays heās not the only one.
When she speaks, a sudden pang of guilt aches in his chest. And then, fireworks.
This kiss is even longer than the last. This time, Rinne makes sure to commit the taste of Ai's soft lips to memory. He likes how they catch his bottom lip, so he clumsily copies her and hopes she feels the same. He doesn't rush. He hasn't gotten the hang of this yet. As the rain drowns out their kiss, he tucks a lock of hair tickling his face behind her ear. It's in the way. ]
