Another kiss, deeper this time, hands tangled in Mina's hair and in the fabric of her dress. Vanessa could lose herself in the taste of her, in the feel of her, and she wonders for the briefest of moments if she wouldn't welcome that end.
When her breath is gone she moves back, but only so far that she can meet Mina's eyes and she says "yes." Burns the word into Mina's lips as she takes her hand and pulls her closer, leading her down onto the bed beside her. Fingertips skimming along Mina's neck until she replaces that touch with the touch of her lips and tongue, tasting the perfection of Mina's skin.
The scent memory of her body is so powerful in that instant that it brings tears to Vanessa's eyes. The memory of innocence and peace and the life they shared before the darkness fell; the memory of everything Vanessa has spent these years clawing her way back to. And so her tongue traces a featherlight path to Mina's ear and she whispers, "I love you. I've always loved you. Be mine now."
