"If I have to reassure you every hour of every day for the rest of our lives then I will. I will spend forever chasing away your dark thoughts and I will never get tired of you" Nate's eyes shone with honesty and love, he hoped that his reassurances would cause Lucien to have less self doubt but even if it didn't he wouldn't leave or give up. His love was too strong for that.
"Baby" Nate breathed, "My Lucien, my love. You may be slightly damaged around the edges but you are not beyond repair. I know that even when you yell at me you still love me, do you not? And I will always apologise and then we will always have make up sex and cuddles" He kissed Lucien's nose before claiming his lips in a tender loving kiss.
