Re: log: steph/eddie
[Her fingers laced in between his, slightly calloused thumb brushing against the back of his hand. She tugged again, in the direction of her room and began to lead him back. She missed the intimacy, too. Oh, she had people to talk to, and nurses who cooed over color patterns and floral arrangements with her, and she was starting to not feel that sharp loneliness as much anymore. But, it wasn't the same. It would never be the same as being able to be with Eddie. To hold him, kiss him, love him, have him climb up her body. She wanted all of that, and she was scared he might start missing it all too much. That he might need a break from her just because.]
Better now that you're here. [And that was the god's honest truth. She felt good that morning, but seeing his face and the flowers momentarily placated whatever she was worried about before. A squeeze of his fingers and kiss to his cheekbone and his jawline as she lead them back to her room. Teasing:] Thanks for finding some space in your busy schedule to come see little ol' me. [Another squeeze, gentle rub of her thumb against his hand.] How are you feeling?
