[For a brief moment there Helix could feel his spine freeze, had he said something wrong? Was it too much? Too soon? The worry coiled tightly in his gut before completely unraveling with that smile. He couldn't help but blush some with the brush of those fingers, after all he was practically melting from Aidan's charm.
He'd been thinking about it, not only for the chance to finally call Aidan his but... to be together. It was increasingly frustrating every time they had to part ways in the midst of an act. He wanted to be able to touch Aidan, to feel him climax or to taste it for himself. But more than anything a little idea was forming in the back of his head. A potential way to finally defeat his demons. He wasn't ready for it yet, he wasn't sure he'd ever be, but with the License they'd have the option at least.
He quickly closed the gap between them and burrowed into the other boys chest. He squeezed him tightly, relieved and appreciative in every way. He soon tilted his head up to capture Aidan's mouth, pouring his adoration into the kiss. It may not be entirely the same but it was almost as if Aidan had agreed to get married to him.
That in itself was such an alien concept to Helix but he couldn't deny the overwhelming and powerful feelings he got from his answer alone.]
