[ Sometimes, Kaito has to remind himself how ridiculous it is that he's letting himself get so comfortable with these things, with the gentle touches and light but lingering kisses... but he also has to remind himself of why he's even letting it happen in the first place. He has a good list of reasons for it after all, but sometimes he still has a little trouble deciding if he wants to keep fighting a little more or completely give in and let himself be... sweet.
Though, the moment he spots the box he'd given Chris in his hand, Kaito's thoughts are immediately on that and he swallows hard, eyes on the box for a moment before he lifts his gaze up to Chris. And despite trying his best, one of the first thoughts that comes to mind is that perhaps he was foolish to buy it.
The way that the box feels in his palm is heavy, too heavy almost, but he remains silent as his fingers are curled around the velvet, and his tongue darts out to wet his lips, finding himself wondering. But Kaito looks up at Chris speaks, and god, Kaito could hit him for drawing it out like that and making him feel like some pathetic fool hanging on to Chris's every word. He does at least give Chris a bit of a displeased look, just a quick one before he opens the box and pulls the ring from it. ]
Just be glad I wasn't sappy enough to get something engraved in it.
[ Kaito sets the box down on the table and honestly, he's a little surprised that Chris even wants to wear it. Though, he could easily chalk that up to cultural differences, so he shakes off the thought and hesitates - the left hand, isn't it? He takes Chris's hand, fingers brushing against fingers and then Chris's palm until Kaito's palm is under his, and he slides the ring onto Chris's ring finger. And it's a little pleasing to know that he'd at least gotten the right size.
And there's a moment where he debates it, but after a moment of thinking it, he brings Chris's hand closer to his mouth and presses his lips against his fingertips - kissing the ring seems... too sappy, and Kaito can at least tease Chris a little by parting his lips a little and flicking his tongue over a fingertip before letting go. He can't have this being entirely emotional, after all. ]
