She is laughing, too, as he sets her down. How can she not? His joy is infectious, his delight bubbling up inside her as well, and the love she sees in his eyes is enough to make her drunk with it. Her arms have come up around his neck, and she looks up at him, her grey eyes dancing and her colour high, as his hands cup her cheeks.
"I love thee," she tells him, muffled against his mouth, because that love has lanced her abruptly, stronger than ever, and she cannot help but speak it. Laughing again, she lets her fingers wind through his hair, and gives way to his kiss, her teeth nipping lightly at his lip. Oh, to stay forever so entangled!
