[ Maybe it's that he never thought he'd see her again. Maybe it's the thought of losing her here. Maybe it's his remembering the day he had seen her on his television entering the city as the Princess of Tenebrae. He doesn't know why and it's not as though he's given much in the way of time to figure it out. Because when she nips at his heels with her words, he stops. He turns on bare heels to face her and rather than argue further with her, rather than tell her why none of this is so easy to swallow or accept as being anywhere close to being fine or some second chance in disguise, he kisses her. He kisses her in a way that is quick and impulsive and something he hasn't realized he's wanted to do. But the moment he does, he finds it something beyond difficult to pull from. Yet he does, with a gasp, speechless and staring to her and almost positive that his heart is seconds away from pounding out of his chest. ]
