nothing shall stop us >:(

[ The difference there is that any hurt he experienced is the result of his own choices and mistakes and not because of anything she's done. It all boils down to what he did and how badly he misstepped. She has never disappointed him, and as far as he's concerned, she'd have to work very hard indeed to even try.

The girl beneath the Oracle is the one he's fallen in love with, and what's more, she's the one that he needs. He can't imagine a life without her in it, even though part of him still feels as though he's only hindering her and cheating her of everything she deserves, simply because he has one foot in this world and another foot in a world far removed from this one. And yet as long as he remains, he wishes to be with her. And perhaps he won't ever leave this world; as things stand now, he can't help but think that maybe that wouldn't be so bad.

As for why his hands stop before they can go too far, he wonders if this attention is what she wants. Is it even what she needs? He should be doing something to help bring her voice back, and yet he can't seem to stop his hands from wandering and straying into more intimate places. He supposes if this isn't something she wants, she'll make that known, with or without words. And also he'll do his best to be attentive to any messages that she gives off, in case this isn't something she wants.

Once again, his head dips back just slightly in response to the feel of her fingers in his hair. Even so, he manages to keep control of his voice so that he can continue to answer her properly.

You bring more than enough. You are more than enough. I don't need titles or land or even a normal life, because I don't have any of those things to offer you either. Yes, he knows that he is (or was?) a Pharaoh, but as of this precise moment, that hardly seems to be a thing worth bragging about or treating as something he can offer her.

All I need is you, Luna. I can see you here, not the Oracle, but you. It isn't the Oracle that means everything to me. He shakes his head carefully, with respect for her hands that are still resting on his face.

You're who I need, if you'll- He pauses then, hands moving to rest lightly against her shoulders as she lies there on her back, still looking up at him.

If you'll allow me to show you how much I need you, and how much I care about you.

These aren't words that he remembers ever speaking before, and to some degree, they feel foreign to his ears. And yet even as he makes his feelings known, he knows that he means every word, that nothing he's ever said up to this point has been said with more sincerity and truth behind it. He just hopes that she can find it in herself to believe him and to allow him to show her his true feelings and more. ]
