He gave her a smile, then watched her blush - yet again. He turned serious and nodded. "Yes, I noticed it. Because I considered Obliviating you, too. It might be easier for both of us but... I don't want to forget a second I've spent with you. I don't want to forget you because it's the only thing that keeps me going." He had to laugh again and raised an eyebrow challengingly. "Oh really? You think you can take it? Hmm... I'm not so sure. But we'll never know, I guess." He grinned, wondering if she might be faster. But then again, it didn't really matter because there would be no Obliviating. He kissed her nose. "I'll always be here for you too. For as long as you want and need me."
He laughed again, rubbing his forehead and brushing his hair out of his face. "A mountain troll? Good comparison. Even though she's way better-looking and also ten times more dangerous." He shook his head and wondered why he always seemed to fall in love with women that made everything so difficult? There was always drama involved. Bellatrix got him into the Death Eaters, and loving Nymphadora was dangerous and exciting... He realised that he must be a masochist, on some level. He shook his head and smiled at her. "It was overwhelming for me, too. At first I tried to convince myself that I was just sexually attracted to you, and that I'd forget about you the moment I'd had you. But now... Obviously, I was wrong. I didn't think my feelings for you could get stronger than that but... they do. Every day I need you more, and I hope that one day, we'll be able to be together. Really together, without drama and danger. I know I have you now, but... not really, do I? There's still so much between us."
He listened to her, watching her face as she spoke, and realising that it was hard for her to talk about it. He cupped her cheek and kissed her lips for a long moment before nodding. "I know. I know you don't expect anything of me. I'm still attached to Bellatrix but... she rarely makes me happy anymore. Not like you do. So in a way, I do love you more than her. And once all of this is over; if we're still alive - and not in Azkaban, in my case - then... I'd like to be with you. Only you. I know it's easy to say this when I have no idea what's going to happen. I just want you to know that... when the Dark Lord is gone for good, I'm yours. Only yours."
He closed his eyes when he kissed her, sliding his arms around her both protectively and possessively, pulling her as close as he could. He sighed into the kiss, loving that she could make him forget everything with a simple kiss.
