Cormac thought he would stop breathing in the few seconds it took for Colin to react, but as soon as Colin was in his arms, kissing him, he felt alive again. He wrapped his arms around Colin and lifted him off the ground, laughing as he continued to kiss the smaller man.
He finally let Colin back down to the ground, but kept his arm around his waist as he looked over at Emma, who was beaming at them. "So what do you say, Em? Wanna go see your room?"
"YES!" She laughed, leaping at them both, confident they would catch her. "Sea-moose is going to live here too, right?"
"OF course. There's a flat on the third floor that's perfect for him," Cormac replied, kissing her head before passing her back to Seamus. "Now, I haven't done much furniture shopping." He looked over at Colin. "I thought we could go together. As a family."
