Re: In-person: Luke/Wren
[It was always easier when they were together, close enough to touch, because when words failed intimacy always, always worked. But as much as he wished it were possible they couldn't be together every second of the day, and so he had to learn to talk, to share, so that when they were together it would be that much sweeter. He'd do anything to make her feel safe, to prove that she wasn't ever going to lose him.]
Yeah, us. [He liked the sound of it, the way the word rolled off his tongue, and it was really, really hard to just kiss her and forget words. He was easily distracted, and there wasn't ever a time when he didn't want her. But no, talking was important, too.] I do like you. I like you a lot. [He didn't really understand how anybody could love someone but not like them, and so he didn't understand how she thought he could love her but not like her, either.
He could sense that she was about to crawl into his lap, and he leaned forward in anticipation. But then she drew back instead and he laughed, half fond and half frustrated.] You're making me wait, huh? [He did like their games, as crazy as they drove him.] When you get back, and we've found a place, we should go out. Like we talked about before. [Not in Marvel, though, just in case; if he got into any trouble it'd be better in another door. He tried not to smile, he did, when she said she could argue that he was good too, but he couldn't help it.] Baby, you already do.
