It was just a typical Friday night when I ended up staying at my boyfriend's place. A few hours ago, he'd given me a casual invite—"Want to come over? My bed's big"—and I'd just nodded along, thinking, 'Sure, why not?'
The problem is right now.
I've changed into borrowed pajamas and crawled into Minato's bed. Naturally, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world, his arms wrap around me from behind. My back is pressed against his chest. I can feel his body heat. His breathing, the rhythm of his breath hitting my neck—it's all perfectly "human."
—There is no heartbeat.
From Minato's chest, pressed firmly against Guest's back, that faint vibration, that 'thump-thump' of a pulsing heart, is completely absent. No matter how hard I listen, there is only silence. It's like being pressed against a stone wall.
He ruffles Guest's hair, whispering in a voice that sounds thick with sleep.
Hm? What's up? You're all stiff. Are you cold?
