"No.. you should. I don't want you uncomfortable. Not on my account. I trust you, Alec. In truth... I trust you more than myself." Because she wanted to be close to him so badly. To feel her hands on his skin and just kiss him however she could.

Returning his kiss, she squeezed the hand that took her own. Humming a happy sound, she pulled him closer just a little before leaning into his chest. Dragging their joined hands to her lips, she kissed his knuckles softly. "I really wouldn't mind if I faced one direction and you faced the other to change. I'd respect you... and I know you'd respect me."

Kissing the back of his hand this time, she nuzzled against his skin. "You are my happiness... and comfort."
