[it really shouldn't come as much of a surprise when Gepard says he wants to make him happy; it's what friends do for each other, right? but what could they really call themselves now that they're in this position? regardless, there's a mildly surprised look on Dohalim's face that quickly melts back into that soft smile of his as leans up to press a kiss to the blond's forehead]

You are already so sweet to me. Just staying with me...

[staying when his other friends had left him. Gepard may say he deserves this closeness, this bond, but it's still hard for Dohalim to believe that, even after all these years.

but that's a thought for some other time, and not when they're both naked on his bed and aroused]

I will say, you are rather cute when you're being sentimental.
