He grinned. "I'm fully aware of it. I don't know if you've noticed but you tend to watch me when it's just us... When you look at me like that, it makes me want to give you the world and then some."
He kissed Stephen, cupping his jaw. "If..." He paused, trying to decide how to say what he wanted to say without sounding like a complete idiot. "I can't promise I'll forget everything but I'd always forgive you, baby. Wouldn't matter what you did, there's nothing I'd absolutely never forgive you for."
