「還沒正式跟你介紹吧,這是我的亡妻,緋真。」或許是在這樣的場合,白哉低沉富有磁性的聲音也不知不覺溫柔起來。33Please respect copyright.PENANARkvpiKetlq
「……嗯。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAhIQGMG9cwF
一護不知道自己該說什麼,或許是因為此刻有些複雜的心情影響,他不知道白哉讓自己來到這裡是怎麼樣的想法驅使的,同時他也意識到這裡只有他們兩個人。33Please respect copyright.PENANAx7vR7usLuQ
33Please respect copyright.PENANAza9Pt33rfA
或許再加上緋真的牌位。33Please respect copyright.PENANAWkd78jN9x2
33Please respect copyright.PENANAN6WpbreeFw
「或許你已經從露琪亞口中聽過她了。」敏銳的發現一護的語氣不如他想的驚訝,白哉考量了下:「緋真就是露琪亞的姊姊,同時也是我的遠房表妹。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAYEZKFG7dmu
「欸?」一護訝異的轉頭看著白哉。33Please respect copyright.PENANAeZFnqFN323
白哉摸索著往前探到供桌前,順理成章的接下一護不知不覺間遞出的抹布輕輕擦拭著供桌邊緣。33Please respect copyright.PENANARyVNsaJUnT
「我們其實有血緣關係。」白哉這樣說,聽不出來是悲傷還是平淡的語氣:「我們可以說是一起長大的,當初我剛接下朽木即將倒閉的企業的時候,我對那些老古董下過條件,要是我成功翻盤,他們非得答應讓我娶緋真。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAtbLEc4EC93
一護沒有說話,儘管他並不清楚當初朽木企業是否真的有所謂的商業危機。33Please respect copyright.PENANAllNlB5fL4g
但他知道白哉需要他傾聽。33Please respect copyright.PENANAxZosgbt96f
33Please respect copyright.PENANAIWrdfueX0X
「後來我成功了,也成功的迎娶緋真進入家門……但是,我們只維持了短短兩年緋真就去世了。」白哉又思考了下,「她過世後的這幾年,有時候我在想……」33Please respect copyright.PENANAvI0gGz1nHo
33Please respect copyright.PENANAPAXUo7xxvV
「你覺得自己有讓她抱憾而終?」一護突兀的開口,然後驚覺自己的失言:「呃,抱歉……」33Please respect copyright.PENANAyhzBVAvgPo
「不要緊。」白哉這樣說,那一瞬間一護彷彿見到一個三十多歲的男人落魄寂寥的身影:「畢竟那兩年,我忙碌於讓企業復甦跟商業競爭,回家的時間並不真的那麼多……」33Please respect copyright.PENANAcwPAF1ecol
看著白哉陷入沉思一般的側影,一護不知怎麼的感覺到心也酸楚起來。33Please respect copyright.PENANArOktLXw4Tb
33Please respect copyright.PENANAhF6htXBp3s
「說真的,如果我是她的話,我想緋真夫人不會怪你的。」一護猛的開口,同時也劈手奪過白哉手中的抹布,細心的擦拭起女人的供桌:「你已經盡了最大的努力想和她長相思守……就算之後你覺得有虧欠,我想她一定可以體諒的……」33Please respect copyright.PENANA01gZhuNV7T
「我媽剛過世的時候,我爸曾經對我講過,老媽是被接回天上了,她在天上還是會繼續看著我們……我想緋真小姐在天上也一定有看見你的自責,也絕對會明白的。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAVoUgdauWP4
一護不知怎麼的眼框有點熱,在粗手粗腳的要把鮮花插進陶瓷的小花瓶的時候他聽到白哉輕聲的長嘆。33Please respect copyright.PENANAGpTCE0WLEY
「謝謝。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAvbBcpjT8Sh
33Please respect copyright.PENANAV1nzNTUgV6
一護突然很希望白哉能碰碰他,即使是男人之間那種釋懷的拍肩也好。33Please respect copyright.PENANAf4IODWROcF
33Please respect copyright.PENANAa6m7Hi7n4R
但是直到他把事情做完的沉默當中,他們兩個誰都沒有率先跨出那一步。33Please respect copyright.PENANAU9617iRu1b

晚餐很平淡的渡過了。33Please respect copyright.PENANAOqgSkHMEU8
33Please respect copyright.PENANAnDblmDuInC
應該說是,表面上跟平常一樣,很平靜的過去了。33Please respect copyright.PENANAAd7I43FYqE
比起以往,兩人雖然狀似是與平常一樣進食,但是恐怕只有夾在中間的露琪亞跟戀次才懂中間若有似無的凝重氣氛,苦不堪言。33Please respect copyright.PENANAWQyZn2qLzd
一護打從坐下幫白哉指示過飯菜的位置之後就沒再開口,除了機械式的動筷子清掉面前的飯菜以外基本是沒有任何多餘的動作,甚至連視線都彷彿膠著在食物上,完全陷入自我世界裡。33Please respect copyright.PENANASXGILGRIa7
一護沒開口白哉自然也不會開口,一家之主沒開口其他人更不需要多嘴,所以晚餐就是在這種時間彷彿永遠都不會推進的尷尬情況下結束的,雖然對於一護而言等他驚覺的時候他就已經在白哉的指示下站在迴廊他的房間前面,完全沒有意識到時間的流逝。33Please respect copyright.PENANAHayJWptmdR
33Please respect copyright.PENANAGUhdtgCUjr
「我讓人整理這間,你睡我隔壁的房間。」白哉簡潔的說明過後就示意一護可以進去看看有沒有哪裡缺的,一護卻遲疑了一下。33Please respect copyright.PENANAZcuNjXrS3K
「怎麼了?」33Please respect copyright.PENANAtmdEly4xi6
「……不,沒事。」一護搔搔頭,其實他原本以為還會繼續讓他睡白哉旁邊……不過這樣安排也很正常,朽木古宅包含主臥房大約有數十間空房間,沒道理讓客人還要委屈跟主人擠同一間房吧?33Please respect copyright.PENANAnoEkKXHg6Z
「嗯。」似乎沒再對一護的舉動有任何的疑問,白哉就這樣靜靜的站在木樑旁邊等著一護環視整個房間──古宅裡面都是清一色的和式房間,一護住的這間可能是因為鄰近主臥房,所以相對的也比較大,房間裡沒什麼擺飾,除了傭人已經整理出來的棉被整整齊齊的疊在榻榻米上以外也就一個傳統跪坐的典雅木桌跟一個看起來頗有年代的花瓶,標準的空蕩。33Please respect copyright.PENANAsDZsnG01FR
33Please respect copyright.PENANA5dAKsWwypa
「白哉,你說你房間在隔壁?左邊還右邊?」重新抓回白哉的手掌,一護好奇的問。33Please respect copyright.PENANAUYb0e0btUv
「左邊。」往旁邊探了下,白哉拉開了就在一護房間旁邊的拉門,由著一護拉著他進去。33Please respect copyright.PENANAH0QHUWZHL8
33Please respect copyright.PENANASPgYarMR0O
白哉的臥室就明顯比較有活動的氣息,至少東西比起一護臨時整理出的房間要來的多多了,一護環顧了一下房間,拉著白哉到同樣也舖好在地上的床鋪前坐下。33Please respect copyright.PENANAdd0lqcoNUT
「這是什麼?油燈??」注意到一旁大約半個人身高的單腳架子,一護近看才發現這大概是比較早年的照明用具……對於從小在都市長大的人而言實在是很新奇的玩意兒:「白哉,你這個燈還能不能用啊?」33Please respect copyright.PENANAoi9wkOI9IY
白哉微偏了頭,隱隱勾起了笑:「上面有臘的話就行,打火機在抽屜裡。」33Please respect copyright.PENANATiuk91Wiyz
33Please respect copyright.PENANAntmDA5Xy7v
「嗯。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAYgV3hnK6lD
33Please respect copyright.PENANAgKjqtDHpoq
33Please respect copyright.PENANAgc8LgQLxi9
亮光晃動,一護很有興致的點起了燈,順手關掉原本的照明電燈。33Please respect copyright.PENANAL1RrXO3wyY
33Please respect copyright.PENANAzUqKKllH3J
33Please respect copyright.PENANAUP1EPcpoiv
「一護。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAbNOJTaJSzf
「嗯?」33Please respect copyright.PENANAWbat8TKcEz
「現在幾點了?」33Please respect copyright.PENANADqrw1JuBGh
「噯?……啊,已經快八點了,時間過的這麼快啊……」33Please respect copyright.PENANAgF6eCnfgCK
「一護。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAgZ9KshZrxp
「什麼啊?」一護疑惑的回過頭,看見白哉朝他伸出手。33Please respect copyright.PENANA9NvX974F8e
33Please respect copyright.PENANALNp0ikSEdz
33Please respect copyright.PENANAHDekFn8gok
那一瞬間他懵了,或許是因為火光下晃動的線條給白哉臉部的線條多帶了點飄忽的神秘感,又或許是因為,白哉那種完全信賴、沒有任何遲疑的動作。33Please respect copyright.PENANAPU87j0c6ss
某種他無法形容的感覺突然脹滿整個胸口,很陌生卻不讓他害怕,卻又足夠讓他緊張、讓他的身軀為了某種他也不明白的期待微微顫抖著。33Please respect copyright.PENANACwOEMrudHd
33Please respect copyright.PENANAOahez3UhuS
他貼近了對方。33Please respect copyright.PENANAxcMGpKoAir
33Please respect copyright.PENANAdbqJnzHOZH
33Please respect copyright.PENANAxmUoRipfVQ
「…我想,我很抱歉沒跟你說清楚就先讓你去見緋真。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAHFFaxlbsnD
「……呃?……噢,這件事啊……」原本像脹滿不同情緒的大氣球被戳了個大洞,一護瞬間回過神起來,恍若所失。33Please respect copyright.PENANABkP8Ljo2yD
「為什麼?不用向我道歉啊,這又不算做錯什麼……」搔搔頭,一護突然打從心底覺得自己冷了起來,抽回他的手猛的站起身。33Please respect copyright.PENANAWm20gS1jWu
「……時間不早,白哉你也快點休息吧,我先回房……」33Please respect copyright.PENANAeSwFisIrqV
33Please respect copyright.PENANA7oqvw21sqO
才要越過對方手又被抓住,一護有點詫異的看著一反常態的男人。33Please respect copyright.PENANAU7uquR2EPy
33Please respect copyright.PENANAhs1lgNI0bv
張開了唇像是想說些什麼,最後卻又抿上,白哉稍施點巧勁讓一護重新坐下,輕輕嘆了口氣:「不是你想的那個意思……」33Please respect copyright.PENANA5262aL1GcG
33Please respect copyright.PENANAgT5Ey7vmcU
右手仍扣住對方,白哉伸出空著的左手輕輕撫過一護面頰,像是當初一開始,他伸出手確認一護的長相一樣的碰觸。33Please respect copyright.PENANAg5WwJ58fw6
33Please respect copyright.PENANAG0lwVwlLgs
只是,更輕柔。33Please respect copyright.PENANArdo7zhwf6R
33Please respect copyright.PENANAYoFCE3iF2A
一護動不了,即使他沒有正面面對男人的眼睛,即使他現在面對的不過是被繃帶遮掩常人所能見的靈魂之窗的俊秀面孔,即使知道如此看著白哉在火光下閃動著光影的面孔他還是無法動彈。33Please respect copyright.PENANAjWArW7ggb5
他在期待。33Please respect copyright.PENANASQXh5fVgFu
33Please respect copyright.PENANANF9Qt8cXww
在白哉碰觸他臉的那一瞬間,他突然明白自己其實一直都在期待著這一刻。33Please respect copyright.PENANAti2lG0YOFc
33Please respect copyright.PENANAFG0HXureSf
33Please respect copyright.PENANAjlbaxiYNGj
他聞到了某種淡雅的花香。33Please respect copyright.PENANArPQdZr6ySE
白哉的手仍撫著,很淡很輕柔的碰觸,溫熱的呼吸吹在他的鼻息間。33Please respect copyright.PENANAgKC6RZHmoK
33Please respect copyright.PENANAUdNjG3UlLU
啊,是桔梗的香味。33Please respect copyright.PENANAuWk2P0Q676
在男人佔滿他思緒的前一刻,一護恍惚的想到。33Please respect copyright.PENANAmu5aY38wv0
33Please respect copyright.PENANAf8bmqGTbWQ
33Please respect copyright.PENANAd57NJkryDE
就像是在測試著什麼一樣,白哉的吻很輕,移動的動作謹慎緩慢到一護覺得貼上他的面頰的吻彷彿過了一個世紀那麼久才碰觸到,先是鼻頭,然後他的手移到一護的後腦杓,才是真正的柔軟相貼。33Please respect copyright.PENANA4B1ANXaWFF
33Please respect copyright.PENANACk7kebfsGo
那是個蜻蜓點水般的吻。33Please respect copyright.PENANApgwpiBgJAr
33Please respect copyright.PENANAO9iO4OKeib
33Please respect copyright.PENANADeHNS3qm9D
直到白哉的唇離開了一護都還愣著沒有任何動作,只是兀自盯著白哉恍神。33Please respect copyright.PENANAgQ5F8CFBA7
33Please respect copyright.PENANAX2FGGv4R2E
在下一次的嘴唇貼上來之前,一護突然慌忙的隔開了自己和白哉之間的距離,架開距離的手臂有點顫抖。33Please respect copyright.PENANADIvzAQsc56
33Please respect copyright.PENANAkEYo1AlXni
33Please respect copyright.PENANAXq0sMaHeqd
「白哉…你知道你現在在做什麼嗎?」33Please respect copyright.PENANABgeDH5jLXT
白哉沉靜了一下,一護覺得自己幾乎可以想像男人直勾勾盯著他的眼神。33Please respect copyright.PENANA8cpawNFJaG
33Please respect copyright.PENANA8U8rHNQI8z
「……我知道。」33Please respect copyright.PENANATEL1FucNA8
33Please respect copyright.PENANA06wgMtIKGS
然後,白哉再度拉近人,不容他猶疑的親吻。33Please respect copyright.PENANA5hiObRJZHt
