If she was about to laugh, Mirar did laugh. It sounded so strange to hear Auraya talking about herself like that. But in truth, she was not wrong. He had been a different person before he'd known her, a person quite detached from the person he was now. He wouldn't want to again be the person who thought himself incapable of love. He had been waiting for her. He just hadn't known it.
His hand cupped her cheek in turn, and he ran his thumb along it while he leaned into her hand.
"You say it like a joke," he said, shaking his head and smiling at her. "But you are right. You are perfect, and I do not want to be without you. In our own world, in this world, in any world. I can be content, so long as I am with you. Once, I would not have believed that of myself."
He'd never felt at home in a physical place. But he felt it with her, now. So long as he was with her, he was happy.
