[ nate back in his arms feels right, he always does. nick winds his arm round him in turn, hooks his foot around nate's leg too just to feel a little closer. turns his head into nate's cheek like a sunflower into sunlight. ]

When you were asleep, everything felt so quiet. [ and when he was dead, too, but nick doesn't want to talk about that right now. he just wants to nose into nate's cheek, nuzzle in gently, trail his lips to nate's ear. ] I'm more, because of you. I'm more...me.

[ Nate thinks, he's glad Nick didn't feel what he felt when he was in hell. The fear, the loneliness, the desperation - if that had transferred, it would only have hurt Nick. It's good that it didn't.

But it's better, having him back now. Their bond is a warm glow between them. Nick's skin feels soft and good, his lips feel sweet, their closeness makes his heart race. This feeling is belonging. He tightens his hold, letting them settle together. His hands stroke down Nick's back, and they guide more generalised healing magic through him. He wants him to feel restored. ]

I would never take it back. This bond. I wouldn't want to live without it, not after knowing what it was like.
