He kisses her, a few aftershocks still running through his system. The taste of her is just as sweet as ever, and perhaps more. There is something magical about her that virtually glows now, and there is some part of him that senses it. It isn't exactly a conscious part, though. It is just a stronger infatuation with her beauty, a beauty that he knows he noticed before, but that he just doesn't feel he appreciated enough until this moment.

For continually finding him, for coming out here on this test which in retrospect felt so silly in comparison to the gravity of the lovemaking they'd just done, for the lovemaking itself, and for helping him briefly let loose that control that he valued so much in such a spectacular way.
