God. Kat, it's so stunning. Everytime. I'm glad they're finally free, but very scared by what will come next. And the way they're slowly getting closer, even with the world falling around them, is just so tender and heart-breaking I don't know how much I'll be able to stand it. It's the best part of everything.
The touch would break him. His whole life had been spent with someone who loathed the idea of showing comfort, of showing love. Noah had hungered, thirsted, and wanted so badly to have it. It was like a flood of need and want bursting free every time Luke touched him.
That hand sent ripples of pleasure and comfort radiating down Noah’s spine. His head turned slowly to find Luke’s face next to his, just a few inches away, eyes warm and caring, and he knew he was lost. “It’ll be okay.” The doubt reflected in Luke’s face made his heart hurt, and he reached his hand up to touch one cheek, tracing a line down and over Luke’s chin, pinching it between his forefinger and thumb. He gave Luke a smile, watched his eyes darken, and received a smile in return. “It’s not so bad. Hurts a little.” That was a flat out lie but he didn’t want to worry Luke. “I can handle it.” Gosh, I'm trembling! *chokes back tears*
His Luke wasn’t just a pretty face. I loved the "his". It's part of that slowly getting together. Soul-stirring.
