The words warmed the boy, and he returned the lick Lennon had pressed to his muzzle. It sent a skip through his chest, to know his companion felt that way-- to know he was worth something, that he would not be forgotten or cast aside.
He giggled a little, more from happiness than amusement, and rubbed his head against Lennon's neck. Part of him thought, a bit possessively, that others would scent him on the handsome man and know. Mostly, though, he felt like a kid in a candy shop, inhibitions gone with the mutual confession.
Don't worry. Ali murmured almost inaudibly, words he mostly intended to go unheard. I'm yours.
But his expression did not betray that he had said it at all, and quickly (as if the words had never come out) he was talking again, more loudly. I wonder if Korei is awake yet.
