༺ Notes: This my first time really writing smut so go easy on me guys. Maybe I wrote So’lek a little too soft but I feel like he’d be such a quiet yearner
Evening was slowly approaching, the beaming sun inching toward the horizon with each passing second. It glowed to your left as if it were sitting just off the tip of your ikran's massive wings. You basked in what remained of its light, only a few precious hours before it would vanish for the night.
After a long moment, your attention returned to your bonded, who ever steadily continued across the orange and pink sky. She flew as if she were the wind itself, strong and fast, but also reliable. Nothing but you could convince her to the ground now.
"Sìltsan," You murmured in praise, earning a soft rumbling response from the creature. She had carried you a long way, and even now she showed no signs of fatigue.
Your destination was closer now. It would only be minutes before you landed at the resistance headquarters. It had been a long few weeks since last you'd been there, and all you longed for now was the familiarity of that place, but more importantly, its people.
One person in particular.
So'lek had wanted to accompany you on your mission, insisted on it. But you talked him out of it with the gentle reminder that stealth was better with fewer bodies present. Besides, it wasn't always his first choice when it came to infiltrating RDA bases. He preferred it when the plans involved letting an arrow or two fly.
But this mission required patience, absolute silence, and zero evidence left behind that you were there. So only having one pair of feet on the ground meant greatly increasing the chance of success. After the others added in their words of agreement, it was quickly settled. You would go alone.
You were beyond successful. With Teylan's computer guidance and So'lek in your ear the whole way, you accomplished your objective in record time. So now you found yourself making the long, quiet return journey home.
You expected to feel the exhaustion of a hard-won mission to set in, but it never came. Your thoughts were too tangled with what awaited you at home to allow for any sort of sleepiness. The image of So'lek, greeting you with that quiet smile of his, circulated in your mind.
In recent weeks, something had shifted between you. What was once a tactical partnership had blossomed into something more intimate. Romantic even. Touches lingered for a heartbeat longer, becoming more intentional with each passing day. A light brush of your shoulders here, your fingers grazing his arm there. Always quiet and undetectable from the outside.
He was always the quiet type of lover, steady in himself. So every touch and tender word was private, given as a gift only to you. It was endearing to have something between you that no other eyes had seen. And it made it that much more meaningful.
The last time you had seen So'lek, he had given you a gentle send-off. It was late in the night, with only the murmuring sounds of Pandora to fill your ears. He stood beside your ikran while you sat atop her, ready to cue her takeoff. She rumbled softly below your touch, eagerly anticipating the flight.
So'lek had a hand resting on her head to keep her calm for a moment longer. His other reached up to brush across your temple in a touch so light, your entire body loosened beneath it. Even your Ikran below you seemed to settle.
"Be safe, yawne." He said in the softest voice you had ever heard from him. It was practically a whisper. He had never called you by that name before, but the way it fell from his lips made it feel natural. As if it belonged to you just as much as your birth name did.
It took every ounce of your will to depart for your mission after that.
So now, on your way home with a pathetic excitement that caused your ikran to pick up speed, all you could think about were those three words, and the feeling of his touch forever burned into your memory. It consumed all your focus.
As the thoughtfully hidden base came into view, that excitement only grew, your heart fluttering with anticipation. Ears perked forward, your eyes scanned your landing area for So'lek, despite knowing he would not be there. You hadn't sent any notification of your arrival yet.
Your next priority was to do this, radioing in as your ikran nimbly touched the ground. After dismounting, a hand slid softly up her neck in a silent thank you for carrying you the distance. She purred affectionately in response, tilting her head to get a better look at you.
One of your ears flicked backward at the sound of soft footsteps, a tiny flicker of hope running through you that it was the Na'vi you awaited seeing. But it relaxed as you identified who the sound belonged to. Teylan was the first to find you, likely because he was closest in location.
"There you are!" He greeted enthusiastically, a tablet gripped in one hand and a radio in the other. He held the latter up as a gesture. "I was just about to call you. All went well?"
“Better than well, 'eylan." You replied, bidding farewell to your ikran before being whisked away by Teylan to debrief. Although it was tempting to, you did not protest this. It would be futile to.
"Where is So'lek?" You asked simply, trailing along behind Teylan, who led you innocently by your wrist. He must have sensed that your priorities were elsewhere.
"Across base, I think." He responded casually, letting go of you as you approached the circular computer table. Teylan tapped the comms around his neck. "But we all heard your call. I'm sure he's rushing here as we speak." Your tail flicked as you caught the subtle meaning in his words.
Teylan dragged you through several minutes of debriefing, asking a multitude of questions and taking notes in great detail. You remained patient with him, although it was clear your mind was drifting.
Just as you thought you'd have to request to resume in the morning, your keen ears picked up the soft padding of footsteps. This time, they were immediately recognizable, belonging to the Na'vi you had grown to become so in tune with.
Teylan knew he had lost you when So'lek came into view, his frame soft and welcoming. Something so unlike the usual rigid form he'd taken on for many years.
"Ma So'lek," You greeted, unable to keep your lips from pulling into a smile. He allowed the corners of his mouth to subtly copy it upon seeing you.
He turned to address Teylan first. "May I borrow her?" So'lek asked, though it wasn't really a question. He picked up on this, so he nodded, slightly disappointed. As if he hadn't already gathered a books worth of information from you.
So'lek led you out the sliding metal doors, eyes scanning you from top to bottom. It was a gentle gaze. He used it to check for signs of injury, satisfied when there were none. "How was your return journey?" He inquired, every word leaving his lips like silk. It put a longing feeling in your chest, settling itself on your heart.
"Uneventful," You answered in the same tone. "My ikran has always taken care of me." You never missed an opportunity to brag about her. As you stepped into the open air, your eyes were drawn across the forest, which now shone in the light of the setting sun. Soon, that golden hue would be replaced with the much more subtle bioluminescent glow featured in Pandora's nights.
"She is strong, like her rider." He praised, a steady hand going to your elbow to stop your walk. You turned to face him.
This was the first time you noticed his body language. His ears were lowered slightly below the normal, and his tail swished in almost a nervous way. The behavior was so unusual for him, even though it was so subtly present. You were sure none other than you would have noticed it.
"Is something wrong, So'lek?" You questioned, wasting no time in addressing it. The words seemed to lower his ears another degree.
There was a pause before his response as he carefully calculated it. "Will you fly with me?" He asked eventually, voice filled with sincerity. Your heart jumped at the thought, until you were reminded of the long journey your ikran had just taken. And while you may not have felt fatigued, she did not share your excitement for So'lek. So she likely would by now.
“My Ikran,” You started, developing a little frown. “She will be tired. It would not be fair to ask more of her.”
His gaze softened as he offered a hand out to you. "We will take mine, Yawne." He told you. It took no other persuasion beyond those words, the weight of the name crawling toward your heart again. Somehow, it made you feel lighter.
So'lek called for his bonded companion, greeting him affectionately as you approached. Ìley purred a greeting to you as well, having grown fond of you in recent weeks. You wondered if this was because of So'lek's growing affection.
His hand stayed wrapped softly around yours as he climbed aboard, helping you up and into a seated position behind him. Instinctively, your arms slid around his torso, just in time for the creature to leap into the air.
Above the trees, the golden rays had reached their final few moments, setting you aglow beneath their touch. You admired the way So'lek's skin looked like this. It reminded you of sunlight on the surface of water. Absent-mindedly, your fingers went to his arm to brush over the patterns there.
Although he said nothing, you felt his body relax further into each touch, until you were shown a side of him that was reserved for you alone. All traces of tension were gone from his body, leaving him lighter and several years younger in appearance. The shift into this demeanor made you hum in satisfaction. It was rare to see.
Ìley began to descend gently, not enough to disturb you as you leaned into So'lek's steady body. Your eyes drifted to the world below, which had begun springing to life now that the sun had gone to sleep for the night. Realization settled as you understood where he was taking you.
You were in the deepest part of the Silk Woods, slowly approaching the Glade of Light. It was a sacred place. A place you had only ever been to once before. Your mind rotated through conversations you’d had on the topic before, piecing together why he would bring you here now.
A little glow of warmth spread through your chest as the pieces fit into place, heat crawling to your cheeks to turn them a shade of violet. Thank Eywa he could not see you now, still seated behind up aboard his ikran.
Your eyes flickered to the side of his face, attempting to read if your assumptions were correct. His expression was practiced, intentions safely hidden beneath it. Perhaps you were wrong to leap to such conclusions. Though you would not admit it to yourself, you hoped you were not.
With a steady flutter of his wings, Ìley was on the ground, just outside the glade. So'lek was first to slide off, turning to take hold of you by your waist and help you down. Suddenly, he took on that barely there nervousness from before. To assure him, you set a hand on his forearm, fingers brushing the skin there in a silent message. There is nothing to fear.
He understood this, shoulders releasing a little. You took the lead, hand sliding down to his to intertwine your fingers. "I have not seen this place in many moons." You announced quietly, turning toward the circle of glowing trees. "Why have you brought me here?"
So'lek was used to your boldness by now. He welcomed it. You were not one to dance around a subject, even one so important as this would be. "Come, yuey." He spoke, leading you through the outer edge of the trees. Another name you had not been called by before, but it felt just as correct as the last.
Beneath the tree of voices, everything glowed with a purple hue. It was gentle. Calming. Inviting you to take another step further beneath its branches. Your free hand went out to run your fingers along its tendrils, gazing up as atokirina' floated delicately above your heads.
So'lek's tail swished low to the ground as he carefully gathered his words of explanation. There was a little doubt present, stirring deep inside as the weight of what he was preparing to ask settled in his chest. Not because he was scared it was the wrong choice, but because he knew it was the right one. And he wanted it to be done right with you. He wanted to build something to last the rest of your lives.
This was a huge step to take.
"So'lek?" You called, head tilting slightly as you noticed tension begin to stiffen his muscles. Just hearing his name on your tongue was enough to break him free of his thoughts. With a gentle concern mixed in with curiosity, you stepped toward him, sliding your free hand to his arm.
He glanced down at where your fingers brushed his skin, savoring the sensation they left behind. With a deep and careful inhale, he found the right words. "I have thought about this for some time, yawne. About you." He spoke calmly, leaning in toward you. Soft, round eyes met him there, seeming to glow under Pandora's lighting.
He watched your ears press forward, understanding that he had your complete attention. Nothing on this world could stop him from sharing these words. These words that seemed to come straight from his heart. "I feared what I feel for you. How strong it is." So'lek admitted, his thumb brushing over the back of your hand, which still lay settled in his. "But I was foolish to."
The forest was alive around you. Tendrils swayed, roots creaked, even the moss below your feet had its own faint glow. It was as if Eywa herself had taken audience to his words, humming along through the flora around you. "Why is that?" You asked quietly, no louder than a whisper.
So’lek brought your hand up to place a gentle kiss to the back of it. “You were made for me, tìyawn, and I for you. It was time that taught me that.” The meaning in his words felt like the warmth of an embrace swaddled around your heart.
Your lips pulled into a smile that lit up every corner of your face. He may have been talented at controlling his expression, but you were not. Your joy was written plainly across your features. "Ma So'lek." You responded with an airy giggle, pulling closer again so there were only inches of space left between you.
The atokirina' glided down a few feet to stand witness while the trees hummed around you. There was an unspoken request in his words, one you understood immediately. The significance was not lost on you either.
A hand slid to your side as if to ground you there. You felt electrified having his touch there. "You must understand, this is not a decision to take lightly." He began again, reading your response. "What could be done here is something that can not be undone. I understand if you need time to consider."
The sincerity in his words made your body feel like melting. If you asked him to leave, he would not hesitate in doing so. But even the mere thought of sending him away sent an unpleasant shudder through your body. It would be the exact opposite of what you wanted now.
"I do not need time, So'lek." You assured, sure in your words as they left your lips. You had never been more sure of something than you were now. "What you feel, I feel too. Every hour I was away, all I could think of was returning to you."
His ears lowered a hair. Not out of nerves this time, but understanding. The emotions that ran between you, it connected you. So much so that it was as if you were already bonded.
Your eyes flickered down to his lips for the shortest moment, but he caught it immediately. "I want this to be permanent. I want to be connected to you, body and soul." You told him, and it was all the assurance he needed to cross those last few inches, resting his forehead against yours. "I am sure of this." You added.
In those few moments, your bodies stilled. It felt like the last breath before plunging into deep water. His previous words rang true in your head. What happens here will not be undone. You will be permanently and intimately bound to him, and he to you. Though maybe it should have, the thought did not intimidate you. It only made your heart lurch, begging to take the dive and face the waves below.
It was only seconds before you gave in. And with a deep, slow breath, your lips met his. The response you earned was immediate and completely instinctive. So'lek melted into you, coming undone in only the first few moments. All this time, all the doubt, the love, it all came down to this moment. It felt as if every small touch and every word led you here.
Your hand traveled up his arm, slowly and deliberately, taking your time to trace patterns in his skin as you went. A new feeling began to stir deep within your body. It was born from affection, but it was more than that. It was this longing to be closer, entwine your very being with his.
The kiss broke only long enough to breathe, So'lek pressing one to your cheek, just beside your nose. The pressure of it felt like a small lick of flame upon your skin.
He pulled back just enough to gaze at your face while a strong hand slid up to lay comfortably at your neck, stabilizing your head. The way he looked there, his carefully guarded demeanor having given way completely, it was something you'd never truly seen until now.
"I see you." The words left your mouth before you even knew they were there, but as you said them, it felt as if all the weight had been stripped from your bodies. He didn't waste a moment before kissing you again.
So'lek was the only thing keeping you grounded, like gravity had completely forgotten its purpose. While his thumb brushed back and forth over your jaw, his free hand moved to your waist to guide you closer to him. You obliged, body now pressed to his, while your mouths moved in a rhythm that felt natural.
When his lips left yours a second time, it was only to press another to your cheek, then your jaw, trailing down to your neck slowly and methodically. You sighed his name, earning a tail swish in response.
Without removing his mouth from your skin, he guided you both down to your knees, hands passing your bulky vest to place them both on your waist.
For the first time in your life, you felt truly alive. It was as if every one of your senses had sharpened, making you alert to every movement, every touch. It was electrifying and unlike anything you'd experienced before.
Instinctively, as if your body knew what to do before your mind did, you reached behind you for your kuru. The motion pulled his attention away from your neck, sitting up without putting much distance between you.
So'lek watched you pull the braid over your shoulder, admiring the sight like this moment was a gift from Eywa. Like he couldn't quite believe it was really happening, "Are you certain?" He asked you, already aware your mind was made up.
The significance of this moment made the air between you feel thick with meaning. After this, you would not be separate again. But that was exactly what you wanted. To tangle your soul with his. "I am certain." You confirmed, words sure as they settled the decision. It felt final now. "I want to be one with you."
So'lek reached over his shoulder, exposing his own carefully braided kuru. There is a pause he takes as anticipation sets in. You would have access to all of him. Everything that made him him. It wasn't an easy thing to share, after he had so carefully hidden it from the world for so long. But one look at your adoring gaze and all doubt vanished. If he were to share this with anyone, it would be you.
Both of you released a breath, guiding them forward until the tendrils met gently. searching for hold. When they locked into place, connecting the two of you, it was as if a veil was lifted from your eyes.
You truly saw him. Him. Suddenly, it seemed that everything you'd ever learned about him had barely scratched the surface. For the first time, you understood him, every emotion he's felt running through your veins.
It came on intensely, so much so that you leaned forward to let him bear your weight. He caught you without question, going through everything you were. It felt like stepping into your soul. He saw everything. Felt everything. Your fierce loyalty, passionate love, immense strength, all of it.
"Tìyawn," So'lek breathed, his strong arms tightening around you in a steady hold. "I see you." Your forehead came to rest on his shoulder as he returned your sentiment from moments ago. You pressed your lips to the skin there.
After a few moments, the initial shock and intensity dissipated, leaving you exposed to each other's combined emotions. That heat, the longing in your body, never left. It was only amplified now that you could feel his as well.
So'lek pulled you closer to his clothed chest. The bulk of both your tactical vests bothered you now far more than it did before. You knew what was coming, and both of you were sure.
You initiated it this time, unable to fight the growing feeling in your stomach. As your lips came together again, it was with a new hunger. A hunger that stirred deeply, waiting to be satisfied.
Your hands slid to his sides, searching slowly for the ties on his vest. He understood your intentions immediately, reaching to help you first. His top was slid away, revealing the lean body underneath. The sight of it alone intensified that hunger, sharing it with him through your kuru.
So'lek moved next, hands trailing up your waist to undo your vest. He was quicker with it, growing less patient from the sensation of your quickly growing desire. The moment your chest was exposed to him, he let out something like a sigh, mouth swiftly resuming its job at your neck. wandering slowly lower now that clothing was not an obstacle.
Your head tipped back as he kissed down your throat, sucking gently as he reached your collarbone. The sensation made you gasp, ears flattening in pleasure as his fangs grazed your skin.
The sound undid something in So'lek, immediately noticeable. He let a hand travel down to your back, leaning forward to lay you down against the forest floor. "Yuey," He spoke, muffled against your skin. He inhaled your scent deeply, growing more intoxicated by it.
You gazed down his strong back as he hovered over you, careful not to put too much of his weight down. Finally, he let his mouth wander, placing intimate kisses down your chest, to the sides of your breasts, down your stomach. The further down he went, the more heat that pooled between your legs. Feeling this through Tsaheylu lit up his body.
You propped yourself up on your elbows as you watched him reach the beading of your waistcloth, only pausing a brief moment to let his hands hover there before tugging it undone, revealing you fully to him.
He would have seemed remarkably unfazed to you if it weren't for his kuru sharing every ounce of his arousal with you. He wanted all of you, and he had all the time in the world to take it.
You lowered yourself back to the ground as he kissed just below your belly button, slowly trailing his mouth and tongue across your hip, finding a sensitive spot on your inner thigh to leave a mark on.
Your first instinct was to tighten your legs around him, but it only took one of his strong arms to hold them open, using a gentleness you didn't know was possible. You shuddered as he moved his lips to your other thigh, rubbing his cheek slowly against the first.
His name rolled off your tongue like a music note, causing his tail to flick and mouth to press just a little harder against your skin. "Please, So'lek." You spoke a little shakily, need overtaking his desire to draw this out. The two words undid him swiftly, and he knew he wouldn't be able to tease you longer with this.
With an arm holding your legs apart and a hand spread wide over your belly, he moved to kiss just above your most sensitive spot, thoroughly enjoying your reaction to that alone. Your hands flew to his hair, fingers finding home tangled in his braids.
So'lek's touch felt like fire against your skin. Such an extreme contrast to the cool forest floor beneath your body. In one slow, agonizing lick, his tongue traveled along the heat of you, tasting you for the first time and savoring every second of it. Your head pressed back against the ground with a soft thump as your back arched involuntarily.
He began slowly, in a rhythm that was unrushed and undoubtedly patient. How he already seemed to understand your body so well was unknown to you, but it proved his previous words true. You were undeniably made for each other.
Pressure built up quickly, coiling low in your belly. So’lek could feel it, low groaning sounds leaving his mouth, still muffled by your skin. You were just as vocal, sighing and moaning as his tongue caressed every sweet spot.
As the coil threatened to snap, you lifted your head just enough to gaze at him, his head buried between your legs and eyes flitting to yours. The sight of it alone was enough to tighten the knot completely.
Pleasure rocked through you in waves, tightening your grip in his hair as your hips rolled upward. You couldn’t help but ride it out on his mouth, not that he would ever complain. So’lek allowed you to pull his head closer into you, his tongue still rolling and sucking as he brought you down from your high.
He slowed in pace but only pulled himself away when he felt your body relax. “Nga yawne lu oer, Ma So’lek.” The words were like honey on your tongue, escaping naturally as if your voice existed solely to speak them now.
He repeated the sentiment, emphasizing each syllable between the kisses he trailed along your skin, working his way slowly back upward.
Your hands slid down to his neck, gently guiding his body until he hovered above you once again, lips pressing firmly against your shoulder. He earned a sigh for that, your head tilting enough to expose your neck, calling his mouth to that spot as well.
Heat radiated between your bodies, lighting up your skin. Your fingers trailed down his back deliberately, noticing the careful effort he put into propping himself up, once again making sure not to put all of his weight on top of you.
But you wanted it, wanted his body pressed down to yours. And you were more than strong enough to take it. So’lek, however, was gentle, cautious of giving you too much too quickly.
Your hands along his back sent shivers across his skin, weakening his hold with each brush of your fingers. His arousal was obvious, shared through the link. As they reached his waist, your fingertips found the straps of his waistcloth, tugging them gently at his hip.
“You are overdressed, yawne.” You spoke in his ear, satisfied by the sharp flick of his tail this earned, his body betraying his thoughts. A free hand went to his forearm, which was carefully placed on the ground beside you to hold his body up. You felt it weaken momentarily upon laying your touch there.
The words in his ear made his head feel fuzzy, so you acted for him, pushing him upward with a hand on his chest until he was on his knees. There was no protest from him as you leaned in, sliding your hands along his waist, toying with the garment until you found where it was held in place.
With graceful fingers, you undid the straps, tugging the waistcloth free and discarding it near your own. So’lek gazed at you the entire time, eyes round and full of unmistakable love. He seemed to come back to life in that moment, bodies fully exposed and vulnerable to each other.
With the lightest touch, he placed a hand on your shoulder, guiding you back to the ground. You went there willingly, a hand returning to his neck to pull him down with you. Once there, you met in another kiss. Hungry and absolutely divine.
But he still kept slightly above you, just enough to be frustrating. “You do not need to be cautious with me, So’lek.” You told him between kisses. The words seemed to help, as his body relaxed a hair.
To drive home your point, you lifted your hips, rolling them agonizingly slow against his. Heat exploded within both of you at this, a soft growl escaping So’lek’s throat. The move was enough for him to drop what little guard he had left.
You took his weight easily, not enough to cause discomfort, but enough to feel the pressure of his body against yours. Nothing was left between you.
So’lek’s hands found your waist, grounding you there. Though it was more for himself than it was for you. “Are you ready, nga yawne?” He asked you, as if he didn’t already have the confirmation he needed.
You nodded, tilting your head to press your cheek to his. “Yes,” was your simple but breathless response. It was all he needed. Slowly, patiently, he guided his length to you, all the while keeping one hand steady against your hip. In one careful but purposeful thrust, he was inside you.
All went still for a moment as you both adjusted to the feeling. It was like a sacred line was crossed, different than Tsaheylu. This was entirely different. It was as if you were one body, one soul connected for eternity.
Your name fell from his lips as they met yours again. It had you sighing already.
After he felt the tension wash away from your muscles, he could tell you had adjusted to the sensation. He began to move slowly, just as he had with you before. Every roll of his hips was intentional, nothing wasted. Soon, your hips fell into the same rhythm and met his every movement.
So’lek grew steadily more vocal as he lost himself in you. His lashing tail had to wrap around your thigh, as if for extra stability. But each growl, each moan against your lips sounded like a song in your ears.
Heavy breathing and the sound of skin meeting skin filled the small circle around you as movements grew more desperate. So’lek’s mouth suddenly pulled away from yours, only to press firmly against your temple.
Pleasure built slowly, and with it that knot began taking form. His forehead met yours while words of praise fell affectionately from his lips. You could feel your end approaching quickly, which only encouraged his to do the same. With each thrust hitting the perfect spot over and over, you only had moments left in you.
His ears flattened as he felt it, eyes squeezing shut. “Yuey, I am…” He trailed off, every effort seeming to go toward keeping his hips moving. You brought a hand up to cup his face, only assuring him further.
With only a few more thrusts, you both came undone, orgasms rocking through your bodies in intense waves of pleasure, amplified tenfold through Tsaheylu. So’lek was quick to guide you all the way through it as he filled you, staying true to that steady rhythm you were lost in.
Once you did come back down, everything slowed to a halt. So’lek’s eyes scanned over you delicately, ensuring that you were still ok. All he found there was your adoring gaze and soft smile.
“We are as one, Ma So’lek.” You purred, thumb brushing over the skin of his purple-tinted cheek. He smiled, leaning back down to press a long kiss to your nose.
In a swift movement, he scooped you up, careful not to disturb where you were still connected, as he lay you on top of him. His strong arms wrapped around your body, as if still needing you somehow closer to him.
You nuzzled your face into his neck, pressing gentle kisses there as you got comfortable, curled up in his arms.
The forest seemed to come back to life as you settled, glowing softly all around you. You let the sounds fill your ears: the slowing breathing of So’lek beneath you, the breeze calmly rustling the canopy above your heads. It seemed that time itself had slowed down for you.
You thought back to your earlier words, considering the weight of what had just been done between you. This truly could never be undone. You understood now what that meant. But still, it wasn’t intimidating. If anything, it only made you more sure. This was always going to happen. If not now, then another night beneath these trees.
Your head turned to glance up at him with all the affection fixed in your gaze. The world suddenly felt whole. Like something had been missing that you weren’t aware of until now, completely filled like the final piece of a puzzle fitting into place. It was always him who belonged with you, and him who showed it to you. And no amount of time could have prepared you for that.
