"Awesome?" he finishes for her, puffing out his chest with a smug but playful grin. "Mind-blowing? Awe-inspiring?" He presses a kiss to her shoulder and murmurs his agreement. "That part was definitely a highlight of the evening." Highlight of his life, if he's honest, because in no way is he exaggerating when he says he's never felt for anyone else what he feels for her. There have been people he thinks he could have loved, had he not been so preoccupied with his research, but he supposes it's all just come down to timing.
"It is so easy, right?" He knows they've had a similar conversation before but it's different now because this time they love each other, and he's still a little dazed at how everything has worked out so perfectly. "I never really thought that it would happen. Not in a sadsack kinda way, I just didn't ever think it would be something I cared about, y'know?" Whether she's fully aware of it or not, she's changed so much about the way he looks at things. He doesn't think there'd been anything wrong with his view on life in the first place, but it's so much better now that he has someone to share it with.
