Chapter 4. The Midnight Meeting.

Two weeks have past now and nothing still has been going with Masaya and Retasu. Ryou was thankful. Very. Ryou's love for Retasu grew stronger and stronger after the past few weeks. Everytime he saw Retasu he would stay quiet and blush. Retasu just doesn't seem to notice.

Retasu woke up in the middle of the night to get a glass of water to quench her thirst.

But she was kind of afraid of the dark, so she went next door to see if Minto would want to accompany her to the kitchen which was very far away.

But she didn't want to wake her up after she saw how soundly Minto was sleeping.

So she went alone. She luckily found her way through the dark but as she was almost there she saw a figure walking towards her, coming closer and closer until...

"Are you here to get a glass of water too, Princess." the figure said.

Retasu was terrified but stood her ground. She didn't recognize the figure's voice but she knew he was a boy .

The boy could see her face from the light coming from a little gap between the curtain and the window. The figure reached out from Retasu's hand and slowly held it and put the glass of water on her hand and he moved her hand and squeezed it, so the glass wouldn't fall.

"You can have mine." the figure said sweetly.

Retasu's cheeks became hot as she blushed.

"T-Thanks"

She could hear the figure walking away. She wanted to go back to the room but she stepped on her night gown and fell down. He turned back as he heard Retasu fall. He kneeled down to pick her up.

"Are you okay?" he said slowly. Retasu felt the warmth of his hand when he took her hand and put his other hand on her waist. He slowly picked her up. When she stood up, she accidentally tripped again. But he caught her half way as he stretched his hand. He leaned his face closer to hers as he held her hand and closed his eyes and kissed her tenderly. Retasu blushed but kissed back. He let Retasu straighten up .

But she didn't only want to say a normal "Thanks" so she decided what to do. She put a hand on his warm cheek and closed the gap between them with another kiss. He closed his eyes, blushed and kissed back. When they were out of breath Retasu broke the kiss as she hugged him. He hugged back.

"When can I see you again?" she said

"You don't have to worry about that, Princess, because I'll always be near you" he said. He took her hand and began to walk. Retasu who blushed walked along. Retasu felt the warmth of his hand once again as he walked towards her bedroom.

He kissed her on the forehead and whispered "Good night" as he began to walk and disappear in the dark. Retasu blushed, happy to finally get her first kiss.
