Sweetheart, I was already planning on you staying.

（ sasuke curls closer, and cy makes room for him. his body language is easy, open, inviting, and anywhere sasuke presses in he carves out space. he puts his arms around him, and just leans against him, leaning slightly like a sheltering tree. ）

I want you here. I want you with me. And it doesn't bother me when you experience these feelings, okay? I get them too. That's just a knife I've had practice with.
