air ais dhomh - back to me. A post 4x07 drabble

She holds him close and hears his heart race as their mouths meet in the middle. He's sorrow and sweetness and oh-so-tender, holding her tight against the demons that threaten to pull them down.
His hand shakes, and she takes it and kisses it.
It's going to okay, my love.
They're crying and clinging but the love is there. It's you came back to me and you're more than that and it's simply them.
It's them against the world yet again.
It almost took you.
But it didn't.
So they hold each other, clinging to their one thread left in the world, and kiss away the tears that collect on lashes. Their clothes fall away until it's simply them, creating love in a place so devoid of it.
They were tore apart today. He was stranded between hell and a deeper pit, watching as the living slowly shrank from his grasp. She was pulled away like an animal to the slaughter, eyes hooded and senses tossed.
But they're here now. They made it back, and this reunion isn't like the others before it.
They aren't collapsing into each other after he's killed a monster, after their friend is bleeding his life onto the floor of the Zephyr.
Men were lost, he still replies, holding her fragile frame gently against the waves of spirits attempting to claw their way into his mind.
Yes, she returns, wiping a single crystal droplet from his sea blue pools. But they weren't you, and for that I am grateful.
