He smiled into her hair, breathing her in to sustain him when she ultimately pulled away.

"You are too," he said, remembering distinctly how they'd followed her lead into the fray of battle, daring to tackle their fears when she showed them they could.
Cupping her cheek, Zavien leaned forward to place a gentle, smiling kiss on her lips. "I missed you," he whispered, not caring that a few people laughed as they passed the couple sitting in the middle of the road, muttering about 'young love' or some other sappy nonsense. But Zavien only had eyes for Soh, his thumb brushing his cheek as he took in the feeling of having her close. It felt like everything was right in the world again.
