Chapter 5 - Underneath the Sunlight
When I woke up, there wasn't a single cloud in the vast clear blue sky.
After finishing breakfast, I went to the forest behind the castle. As the sunlight was shining through the gaps of the trees, it made the soft grass shine brightly on the ground.
MC: It's really pretty...
(I wonder how this view is reflected in Jay-san's eyes. If I could paint pictures beside Jay-san again...)
-Flashback-
Jay: Pictures are made from light and shadow.
-Flashback-
(That's right... Jay-san is unable to see this.)
When I thought about Jay-san's feelings, my heart tightened in pain.
(I want to show this view to Jay-san at least.)
Soon after, I hurried to my room to grab a canvas...
Last Chapter - I Want to Know You
As I spent the time painting, time went by before I knew it. By the time lights were being lit in the courtyard, Jay-san was there as he was listless from waking up.
Jay: I heard. You spent the entire day here. Even though it would've been best to look around town. The way the town reflects light during the day is really pretty.
MC: But, time went by so quickly as I was painting...
Jay-san looked at the canvas.
Jay: A painting of the bright sunlight...
MC: Yes...
Jay: How many years has it been... Since I've seen the sunlight looking beautiful like this.
Jay-san's eyes brightened up.
(I'm glad that I painted it... I really wanted to see it with Jay-san. But, I shouldn't say something like that... Jay-san's the one that wants to see the scenery that's basked in the sunlight the most after all.)
As my feelings were showing on my face, Jay-san gently patted my head.
Jay: Don't make that kind of face.
MC: I'm sorry...
Jay: Geez... To think that I would make you feel that way. ...You're a little too trusting with me.
MC: What do you mean...?
Without answering my question, Jay-san's slim long finger reached out towards my cheek. Then, his lips slowly approached my nape...
MC: ...
I felt Jay-san's breath touching the back of my neck faintly.
Jay: What does this sort of thing make you think that I'm going to do?
MC: Eh...?
(But, Jay-san is so kind and he said that he doesn't need to drink blood...)
Jay: I... I'm a monster by nature.
MC: A monster...?
WhenI tilted my head to the side, I noticed Jay-san sighing.
Jay: That's right...
When he grabbed my shoulder and made me turn around... Jay-san touched my nape with his cold fingers.
Jay: Didn't I tell you that you're too trusting with me?
MC: Jay-san...?
Jay: At this rate, I might help myself to your blood...
MC: ...!
My entire body became like my heart as it was throbbing loudly.
(Jay-san's breath is...)
I trembled from his warm breath that was touching my nape.
Jay: ...You won't even run away from this?
Jya-san's voice was slightly trembling.
MC: I want to know. About you more... I want to see more of the world that's reflected in your eyes... That's why...
Jay: ...You're so...
I heard him sigh exasperatedly close to my ear.
When Jay-san slowly backs away, he looked down at me.
Jay: I'm no match for you.
When Jay-san turned his face away, the moonlit night shined on his cheeks that were slightly red.
(Is Jay-san... embarrassed? Seeing him make that kind of face for the first time... This is the first time he looked this cute.)
Jay: The moonlit night is beautiful today too. Most suitable for painting.
When Jay-san smiled somewhat more carelessly than before, I gently smiled.
......
As the two of us were painting together, we looked at each other.
Jay: Having you look at me always makes me so happy.
What I was painting was a picture of a vampire enjoying painting. Speaking of Jay-san, he was painting...
Jay: A smiling angel that's basked in the sunlight. A picture of you.
As Jay-san whispered that to me bashfully, his smile shined brightly like the sun...
