Persona: Mask of Innocence v.3

Hattori continued to float, waiting to see if Arisa would show up.

 

Arisa sat up and left her mind, entering Hattori's.

 

"Hey there. Care to join me? The water's nice."

 

Arisa smiled and jumped into the water.

 

Hattori swam up to her and kissed her.

 

Arisa kissed him back.

 

"I'm glad I was able to figure out how to manipulate my dreams."

 

"Yeah....." Arisa laid down and floated in the water, Nekotoma and Alice sat in the shade of the tree while Orpheus sat on one of the branches and played a melody. Arisa closed her eyes and sang, "Whenever sang my songs on the stage on my own, whenever said my words, wishing they would be heard."

 

Hattori hummed along with her.

 

"I saw you smiling at me, was it real or just my fantasy? You'd always be there in the corner of this tiny little bar." Arisa continued.

 

Hattori continued to hum along.

 

"My last night here with you, same old songs, just once more. My last night with you, maybe yes, maybe no. I kind of liked your way, how you shyly layed on me. Did you ever know that I had mine on you?" Arisa thought about her mother as she sang.

 

Hattori just smiled as he continued to listen.

 

"Darling, so there you are with that look on your face as if you're never hurt, as if you're never down. Shall I be the one for you who pinches you softly but sure. If a frown is shown then, I will know that you are no dreamer." Arisa smiled.

 

Hattori smiled at her.

 

"So let me come to you, close as I want to be, close enough for me to feel your heart beating fast and stay there as I whisper, 'How I loved your peaceful eyes on me? Did you ever know that I had mine on you?'" Arisa looked toward Orpheus as he continued to play.

 

Hattori smiled and continued to float on his back.

 

"Darling, so share with me your love if you have enough, your tears if you're holding back or pain if that's what it is. How can I let you know I'm more than the dress and the voice? Just reach for me than, you will know that you're not dreaming."

 

Hattori took her hand as he floated next to her.

 

"Darling, so there you are with that look on your face as if you're never hurt, as if you're never down. Shall I be the one for you who pinches you but sure? If a frown is shown then, I know you are no dreamer." Arisa smiled as Orpheus finished.
