[ He feels awful. He feels like he could be doing so much more. He doesn't move his hand, he doesn't flinch. He presses his forehead against hers, letting it rest there. His hand doesn't move. She says that he doesn't have to. He does. She says not to leave - he wouldn't dare right now. And he doesn't think for a moment that she'll be okay in all of this.
He is worried he'll lose her when he could have done something.
Everything that is inside of him to tell him to just stay like this, to not push himself. To ignore his personal boundaries.
She was willing to die for him before. ]
I know. I won't.
[ Simple. Easy answers for something much more complex.
He thinks quickly. The information processing. He's considering all options.
All options.
And - well, he knows what he should do. Has to.
It's like he's mentally preparing for what he's going to do. That shift of his head, leaving his hand where it is, feeling her hand on his. Knowing that he would die for her as she has. Knowing he would absolutely kill for her.
He leans in, it's soft, gentle - the way he presses his lips to hears. He lets them linger, feeling Chroma himself. God, he hopes this works, because he certainly didn't picture himself doing this. ]
