[It matters. After months of uncertainty and hesitation, this matters so very much, far beyond what words could express. But words aren't needed right now - not when synchrony connects them like this, setting their hearts in time as each sensation washes over him like waves.
In movies and fiction, reunions are always described as widly passionate. But rather than flowing tears and dip kisses under the moonlight, Sougo is perfectly happy to settle into the familiar motions. Reveling in Ryuu's warmth is all he needs, the worries strung high in his chest effortlessly unraveled with every touch.
Because he can feel it. More than before, he can feel it. And for the first time in months, all of his fears melt away into bashful laughter as they barely part, voice hushed beneath his breath.]
Maybe I will.
[But only where Ryuu's eyes can see, just as fond and tender as this shared moment between them. Being selfish isn't so hard when every brush of lips is this sweet.]
Then... If you don't have any other plans, can we stay together a little longer?
[ with sougo's face still cradled in his palms, ryuu grins at his agreement. not that he doesn't appreciate a sweeping moment or gestures of grandeur, but there are some things that can only be conveyed by honest simplicity. it suits what his heart resonates with, beyond the stars and the status. plus, he hadn't said it just to be cheeky - he hopes he continues to see sougo speak his mind more and reach out for what he wants.
and right now, well. there's no better place to start, right? ]
I'd like that.
[ allowing his fingers to slip away, he touches their brows together sweetly before standing back to his full height with a more energetic smile. seems that did the trick. ]
As important as getting settled is, there's so much I still want to explore... how about it?
[Ryuu's touch is so warm that once his hand lowers, the slight chill in the air feels fresh against Sougo's cheek in its wake. If he's always met with such kind, encouraging reception, it's so easy to slip into speaking his mind, even if it's only little by little. How wonderful. Truly, he feels incredibly lucky.
None of the gratefulness slips from his chest as they part, the sweet gesture only lifting him up more. And without a moment's hesitation, Sougo's smile brightens to match the one he's given so readily.]
I would love to.
[Polite as ever, he gingerly reaches out to place his hand in Ryuu's far larger one.]
