His smile as she speaks is soft and genuine, as his heart jumps happily in his chest - so very beloved, he is! And so grateful.

"I have given much of my spirit and my energy to others, in my efforts to heal," he says softly between their kisses. "But the only one I have ever given my heart to is you. You are the only one worthy of it."

His next kiss in response is soft, but only for a moment before he nudges it deeper, silently 'asking' her for more.
