( Look Here. The Fact That He Notices Lol Dont Make Me Cry ) - Tumblr Posts

There was a breath she had been holding and hadn't realized it until he agreed. It came out as she smiled and nodded, letting him lead her back to the bed. Even at his insistence that thanking him wasn't needed, she wanted to voice how much it was. How scared she was that she actually needed him. She didn't want him there, she needed him there.

So crawling into the bed, she faced him and held him close. Letting the sound of his heart fill her ears, the scent of him fill her lungs and the warmth of his body warm her cold one. The image of him covered in her blood, in Ripper's blood, still vivid in her mind. She had died, he had sought revenge. She had come back and for a moment there she had felt like someone else. Something else, but he anchored her back to this. Who she was.

After a couple of minutes, she began to feel like herself and chuckling she added. "If I told you, that you really need a shower, would you still come back and hold me after?"

Relief filled him, and she wanted him to stay. He hadn't wanted to leave, but if she had asked, he would have. But it didn't matter. She wanted him. "No, need to thank me, I'm happy to stay." He assured her, finishing his coffee as she placed hers down. She seemed so meek, so unlike herself, maybe being brought back to life, did that to you, but he missed her sass and hoped she would be back to her old self soon. "Of course, anything." But he didn't expect that. "Sure, if that's what you want." He stepped towards her, guiding her to the bed.
