“Didn’t you just get one not too long ago?”
He shrugs and leans forward to kiss her on the cheek this time, grinning as he pulled away slightly, teasing by purposefully not taking her lips this time.
Instead of saying anything, she wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him down to her. She lifted her head and softly pressed her lips against his. Aoko was hoping, that he would understand, what she is trying to tell him with her action.
He blinked as the arms went around him, and just stared off into space for a few seconds after the kiss. Then, he gently returned it, hand weaving through her hair some. A minute passed and he pulled back slightly, just enough to break the kiss, but still so that his face was right in front of hers.

“…Thank you.”
