"You're here. Right now that's more than I could have hoped for." Romilda had felt so incredibly alone and confused, but now Ioan was with her and she simply felt better. As long as he was close she felt like everything would be okay. "I don't remember you, but it feels like I've known you forever. Is that strange? I feel like as long as you're close then I'll be safe and okay." Merlin she hoped she talked like this when they were together before. She didn't want to scare him off simply because she lost a few months out of her head.
She was about to say something else when his lips pressed against hers. It never occurred to her to pull away. Romilda kissed him back slowly and made a pleasant little sound against his lips. "I want to remember you so badly," she said. "I want to know what it's like to love you. I bet it's amazing."
