English = ''Everything was abrupt.

Illuminated by the pale light, the perfectly arranged facial features immediately came in front of my eyes–

''On the lips, it has touched something feverish. ''

''What happened, I do not know. ''

''No, I am not a children who does not know what this is. ''

''That is why, I could not believe it. ''

''After the blank that felt as if time had stopped, the lips separate quietly. ''

The sweet whispering voice, crowd my hazy head.

The meaning of the words he emitted, I did not know.

''No, in truth, I knew enough to understand. ''

''What I do not know is, my own feelings that I have right now. ''

''Then he loosened his mouth, and put on a dazzling smile that could fascinate. ''

''It is clearly different from the previous, a kiss that could assertively peel the shell my heart wears. ''

''Moreover, it is not only once. ''

Just when I thought our lips would part, it is once again piled up.

Again and again.

''I couldn't breath as I think, every kiss, my thinking goes perturbed casually. ''

''In my mind that is carved in the blade of words, a gentle warmth transmitted from the lips sweetly to erode. ''

''......As if, like poison. ''

''So, I could not move. I could not reject.''

Inside my hazy head, had floated such a question. Japanese = すべてが唐突だった.

淡い光に照らされた、完璧に整った顔容がすぐ目の前にきて――.

唇に、熱っぽい何かが触れていて.

何が起きたのか、わからない.

否、これが何かを知らないほど子供ではない.

だからこそ、信じられなかった.

時間が止まったかのような空白の後、唇が静かに離れる.

甘い囁き声が、茫洋としたままの頭の中に沁みこんでくる.

彼が発する言葉の意味が、わからなかった.

否、本当はわかりすぎるほどわかっていた.

わからないのは、こうしてここにいるわたし自身の気持ちだ.

すると彼は口元を緩ませ、見とれてしまうほど艶麗な微笑みを浮かべる.

先程とは明らかに違う、心が纏う殻を強引に剥がされるような口付け.

しかも、一度だけではない.

唇が離れたと思った矢先、再び唇を重ねられる. 幾度も、幾度も.

思うように息を継げず、口付けのたび、思考が無造作に掻き乱されていく.

言葉の刃で刻まれた心に、唇から伝わる柔らかな熱が甘く侵食してくる.

……まるで、毒のように.

だから、動けない. 拒めない.

朦朧とした頭の中に、何故かそんな疑問が浮かんでいた.
