Wren looked blank for a moment, simple statements like that sometimes hard for him to process, but he got it and he nodded, his smile returning. He closed his eyes and sighed softly, relaxing into Aiden as that strong hand petted him.
"Love you Aiden." he responded honestly, reaching to press dry lips against the side of Aiden's chin - aiming for his cheek but missing - in a display of his own love that was, for once, innocent. "Yeah, I'm with you." he agreed, settling as Aiden did until they'd shifted together like sand. "I want to stay with you." he confirmed. He'd been sleeping poorly since he'd woken up at Sing Sing and those times had been far and few between, most of his time spent creeping around, hiding from the others in the prison as much as he could and humming to himself to keep himself going. "I don't like it in... it gets dark here. I don't-" he cut himself off and hid against Aiden's chest.
