here we go again

i've hidden all my fears in a book for only my eyes to see

Glancing over his shoulder, about to hiss a warning, Remi is utterly delighted to see Ronin lighting the candles with the tips of his fingers. Closing his lips around what he was going to say, the alchemist simply takes a moment to watch Ronin Ronin.

With a sleight of hand that's as terrible as it is charming, Remi throws the cork over his shoulder. "Oops. I suppose now we'll have to finish the whole thing." He mumbles apologetically, overpouring their first two glasses which leaves only a fraction left in the bottle. "To..." fresh starts, a new life, blah blah blah. Only that isn't what the alchemist says at all. "..you. For marrying me. For finding my ring when I threw it away. For being here when I realized how stupid I'd been to think being with you wasn't everything I'd ever want."

Remi's lips twitch slightly, not wanting to sour what had been one of the best days they'd had in months, but not being able to shy away from words he hadn't yet said and desperately needed to. "I will always do this with you. I'm so sorry for ever saying otherwise."
