( his lips press with the same tenderness to hers. he doesn't realize in all his anguish and fear just exactly what thoughts were turning over themselves in her mind, but he realizes now. he realizes and he promises himself he will not be blind or deaf to them again.
he doesn't want to be the reason for her insecurities. he doesn't want her stressing over something so constant to him, no matter his foolishness. his lips part and he sucks in a breath; his eyes are soft and saddening with a touch of remorse:
it is sad they had to have this conversation at all. but he is glad they had it. that they will continue to have it. he lifts a hand to cradle her cheek, to thread his fingers into her hair. ) First of all, never doubt that you, that this, is one of the very best things in my life. No matter where we are, when we are, that will always be true. ( his other hand reaches to cup her opposite cheek. he lightens further, and is smiling by the last word. ) Second of all, I happen to find your desire to understand and control each and every aspect of your life quite alluring.
( his thumb follows the line of her jaw to her chin. his voice softens with sincerity. ) I don't mind that you need to know. I prefer it.
