[That is enough for him. Knowing that Megumi would always come back to him. That he would always go back to her. It's very odd to feel this kind of security from someone. He's happy about it though. Thrilled that they have such a loving and understanding relationship. He's never been quite so open before.

He leans and keens into every touch she gives him, the softness of her touch familiar.]

I am very happy, I hope you know that. I know I don't show it on my face very often...smiling is something I do not often think about. But with you, I find it very easy to smile.

[He kisses her forehead again, doting her in affection.]

Are you sure that you are ready for all sides of me? The good, the bad, and the ugly? I wish....I were as good as some people believe me to be. But I too am only human, after all.

[He allows himself to be pushed backwards, lips turning up into that rare smile again.]

Then stop holding back, love.
