He also wasn't sure what sort of answer he was expecting or even hoping for. Yes would be nice, though. Since, you know, everyone hated rejection when you were putting yourself out there. For the first time. Merlin his palms were sweating profusely. And he was feeling hot. Almost hot enough to not notice the freezing temperatures outside. Almost.
Inhaling sharply when she spoke, he locked eyes with her and waited for her to finish her thought. "STELLAR!" he exclaimed, arms wide and wrapped around her to give her one of those pick you off your feet and spin 360 degrees sort of hugs. "I mean...that's great. I mean thank you. I mean...I still want you to have that regardless. I want you to know you are always welcome and that you...." he paused for a moment because the words were catching in his throat. "...you have complete access to my life."
Probably something he should have discussed with her first instead of just throwing this all at her at once. In freezing temperatures. Where she was wearing his coat and he was now standing their freezing with a red nose. His limbs still maintained his full mobility, which was useful as he pulled out one more thing from his pocket and handed her one (the one on the right).
"Um...here...to, um, help you distinguish that key from all the others," he explained "Oh, and, um, Happy Valentine's Day." EEEEEE!!
Holding on to his upper arms, she softly laughed until her feet touched back to the ground, leaving a lingering merry smile in place. Heavens good gracious, complete access to his life. That...was a large thing to say. If that didn't warm someone up from head to toe and take their breath away like it did her, she didn't know what would. "Thank you...Airey. That means a lot." Truly, sincerely, and everything in between.
Oh? But even more? Taking the small silver item, she couldn't not smile even more at the image and half finished phrase. And beyond. To infinity...and beyond. Biting her lip, she glanced up to him, holding the key and charm tightly in her cold hand. A repeated thank you didn't seem like enough for the grand gesture he'd made. Nothing she could currently think of did. Though she leaned forward to give a kiss.
"Happy Valentine's day." One of the top ones yet. |
