“What do you think being a virgin goddess means exactly?” Maki replies wryly, elbows lingering on the banister of her balcony.
“Yeah, but that’s not because of any particular reason, right?” He flips onto his back and hovers with his arms crossed under his head, careful not to look at her too closely. “Just because you didn’t find anyone to-yanno.”
“Love?”
“In so many words.”
“You know I think love is an unnecessary weakness, an-”
“Achilles’ heel, right. But still, to never have had a kiss? I mean,” he drops his voice a bit and hovers closer, his face just above hers. “You would still be a virgin with just one kiss.”
She blinks and he imagines the gears whirling inside of her brain, click click click until she reaches a conclusion and her eyes open wide and curious. “I-suppose I would,” Maki agrees, finally, lifting her gaze to look up at him through her eyelashes.
He hesitates fraction of a second too long before hovering even closer, leaning forward but unable to close his eyes because he wants to remember this, wants to steal away this image in his mind to have forever and-he misses, pitches straight into her arms with a groan.

“Wh-was that the kiss?”
“No,” he groans, “shot by an arrow.”
“Nari?”
“Meisa.”
