Summary
In his head, when he pictured how this scene would play out, how he would finally say those words to Oliver, he pictured saying it like a prayer, each of those three words sacred. But prayer is old; it is repetitive and over the hundreds of years it has been spoken by hundreds of people, the meaning is diminished. Instead this is new, this is fresh, he feels like the barren grass coming to life under Persephone’s foot as she emerges from the underworld come spring.

Oliver holds him even tighter and laughs wetly, but his tears no longer seem to come from sadness. “I love you too, moron, I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t.”
