[ It's embarrassing. That if anything, he's more out of breath than she is... and he can't help but wonder how much fitter he'd need to be to rectify that. Sounds like a pain, really...
But that's not really important right now, is it? He lays there like that for a while, gasping for air as he lays on top of Ai... feeling her warmth against his body, her face in his neck, her arms around him
He presses small, quick kisses into the crook of her neck as he catches his breath. ]
Hah... haaah... yeah... my mess...
[ He can still feel himself buried inside her, buried in her warmth, and the aftermath of their irresponsibility. He doesn't feel like pulling out. He wants to be as close to her as possible... ]
I love you, Ai... I...
[ His voice chokes. A weird combination with how out of breath he is, but he can't stop his breath from shaking as he buries his face in the crook of Ai's neck. ]
I'm so glad...
[ He forces it back. Blinks back the moisture forming. He's not so far gone that he's about to cry at this point... but fuck... ]
[ Her answering laugh is warm and affectionate as her hand moves to slowly stroke his hair again. ]
Mm. Me too. I know it's not the same - you waited all this time for me and I didn't even know I was missing you. But...
[ She kisses his jaw and finds his hand with hers again so they can entwine their fingers. ]
... Nobody's ever wanted to wait for me. I never thought anybody would. I know I always make such a mess of things, I always get things wrong - I couldn't even make my wish right. But you still...
[ Another kiss. When she speaks this time, her voice wavers. ]
I'm glad. I'm so glad you waited. I don't know if I can make up for how long you had to, but...
[ This time, she pulls back enough for him to see her face - and her smile can't be called anything less than radiant. ]
[ Her smile is blindingly bright, so divinely beautiful... it really isn't fair. How could he have ever resisted her? It was simply never possible.
The smile on his face is so open, so vulnerable, so relieved...
He leans down to press his lips against hers once more before he lets himself fall to the side, turning Ai onto her side in the process. He takes care to not pull out, keeping his body pressed against hers. ]
That's all I need...
[ He clings to her. Stubborn, insistent, refusing to let go. Pathetically clingy, like he'll fall apart if she left... ah, there's nothing quite like love, is there? ]
