The Way I Am (IX/X)
Title: More Than I Could Promise Rating: PG Length: 189 words Character: Wyldon Summary: Words can’t convey the depth of their feelings, but actions can.
The words were said long before – likely preemptively, Kel thinks. It’s probably normal, in the height of affection, to confess love too soon. But given their courtship, it doesn’t surprise her. It had been backward from everything she was ever taught – first sex, then love, then more time getting to know one another.
So it’s fitting, now, that she promise him forever, since most of the tales she hears of noblemen and women begin with promises and betrothals.
“I love you,” she whispers, running her sensitive fingertips over the tangle of scars on his shoulder and arm, amazed as always that it’d been saved at all after the Immortals War.
“I know you do,” he murmurs sleepily.
“More than I ever thought I would or could,” she continues.
He opens his eyes groggily, peering up at her in the low light. “I love you, too,” he says, reaching up to caress her cheek.
“More than I could promise, even. I don’t think words can describe it.” She kisses him deeply, trying to convey her feelings in ways that don’t require a vocabulary.
“Then marry me,” he suggests between kisses.
