"I love you," Kash breathed, and then having said it, couldn't stop himself from saying it again. "I love you, Z."
And not just as the love of his life, he realized, and that was one of the other things he wanted to tell her. But now, at least, the paralysis was broken, and he could speak between kisses and sitting up to unbutton his shirt.
"I didn't know until you stopped answering that I talk to you about everything. I didn't know how much I don't have to say because you already know, until I didn't make sense to anyone." He was, for him, babbling, but that, too, was okay. Because it was Z.
As he pushed off his shirt, it occurred to him to wonder what she saw. If he looked different, but the thought drowned under the flood of words.
"I need you to know that I'm not just glad you're here to fill the huge hole in my chest, but because I've missed every fucking wonderful thing about you."
