But one who got the girl.

[And he shifts so they're both comfortable like that. For him it's perfectly natural to love as he does, especially with his life so uncertain. But for her to show it, to cuddle closer he's certain things are worse than he thought.

He'd like to introduce her to his parents, so they can see the woman that's caught his eye and heart. That he's happy.

And to show why he keeps an empty place next to him on benches and in other places with Miranda.

So he's just the touch bit happy in that reply, the slightest bit smug and a lot of just love.]

[There's a bittersweet half smile on her face. He never gets her, does he? He gets her mind and her heart, but he never captures her. He takes care of their daughter and he loves her from a distance and they never find that balance.

This is something like a second chance, but she's not sure how to take it or deal with it. All she wants is to forget everything. For the first time in her life she thinks she might've been happier not knowing something.]

Yes. I suppose you did.

[They never get that balance. He's never given a chance to tell her that, tell her a lot of things he should have. And frankly he's rather happy not to have it at home, he's rather particular about who he wants.

And this is a second chance, and frankly he's rather annoyed at himself for forgetting his cardinal rule; Don't ask about things you don't want to know about.]

Can't say I'm unhappy about how long it's taken, well worth the wait.

[coffeebeforescience]

Worth the wait?

[Yes, it only took this insanity to bring them back together, but... At least she knows he's here. For now, he's here, and she can lean on him ever so slightly whenever she loses her bearings. Right now, they're both lost together. And that's... somehow that's okay. She's glad it's him that she's leaning on, whose hand she's able to hold and who at least tries to understand her.]

I'm glad you feel that way. And I'm glad it's you.
