[It takes Haru a few seconds still to process what Rin is saying. They both might not be the best at communicating how they feel; the both of them are all too alike in that. But what Rin is getting at is unmistakable.
Haru actually has to laugh a couple of times-- just a little, out of all the emotions going through his mind. Surprise, relief, utter joy... he's been terrible at controlling himself through all this, those emotions getting the better of him with no water nearby to wash them away. But it's fine now. At least, it turns out that all his fears and doubts were unfounded after all.
If Haru considers asking Rin to show him what a real kiss is like, it's only a brief thought. He has to make up for the rushed first attempt, it's only fair. And given his record from tonight alone, it's far too late for Haru to care about looking like an idiot.
So, gently cupping Rin's (very warm) face in both his hands, Haru closes his eyes and leans in to try again. Hopefully more right, this time, with his lips slightly parted and more firmly pressed against Rin's. A current of warmth spreads through Haru at the touch, both making him dizzy with excitement and setting him at ease. It's new and strange and he never cared for the idea of kissing before Rin, but now he marvels at the feeling...]
