SEND ☼ TO HEAR THE WORDS THAT MY MUSE WOULD WHISPER TO YOURS ONLY WHEN YOUR MUSE IS FAST ASLEEP
"You remember how I once told you that Rory used to tell me that you were no better than him? How he used to tell me that I was an idiot for having a hero, that they didn't exist and I was just some stupid kid?
I don't know if I ever told you that I knew he was wrong. Even back then, when I didn't know you-- I knew he was wrong. I knew that you weren't-- that. Even when I didn't know you, I knew that you were something special.
I wish that I could find the right words to tell you, when you're awake, that--"
{ he breathes in, sharp, unsteady-- unsure if yancy's woken up or if he's just shifting. chuck doesn't move until he's sure-- completely-- that yancy is still out cold. }
"--that I don't care if you're not perfect. I don't care if you're-- tired, sometimes. Or if your temper is short, if there are days when I have to stay away because you just can't deal with me, or when you're achy and sad.
I think 'perfect' is up to the person saying it. Like-- beauty. If I could I'd put my hands right through your skin and fix everything you didn't like about yourself. But you've gotta know-- There's not one thing I'd change. Not one.
The haven't come up with a word yet-- not one-- for the way I feel about you. Twenty five lives, Yancy Becket."
