18. IF WE ARE TOGETHER

As if there’s no such thing as a “next time”

Right now, in front of my eyes, everything without you

Is a terribly pitch-black darkness~

Xenia's breath tingled his face, her soft floral scent taking over all his senses and driving him to the edge of sanity. There remained no space between them, and yet he could feel Xenia moving forward even more, before her hands reached out to his and she held them in her tiny grasp.
