Adam cups her face in his hands and looks into her eyes. "If I have a say in it, I don't intend on every letting you go again. I want to help you clear out Nona's room, but I want you to keep whatever means something significant to you. I want to finish my degree and get a nice, cushy job. I want us to find somewhere that we can both call home, and where all of our friends, our family, will feel safe. I want you and me. I want us." He smiles and kisses her on the forehead, the nose, each eyelid, and hovers above her mouth. "I love you, Arty," he says, and kisses her gently.
