Buer couldn’t hide the ear to ear grin that came across his face when Belle addressed him. With all of the construction on the new Sanctuary and everything on his plate the past year, Buer’s already meager social life had suffered greatly. But seeing Belle again was like a breath of fresh air. “God I missed you.” He dipped down and wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her in for a quick, decidedly tame kiss. His fingers laced with hers for a moment to take the small foliage from her hand. “Here let me go ahead and take that for you, I don’t need a ladder.”
The kiss is too short and sweet for her liking, Belle would have much rather given him a proper greeting after all this time. But she gives him the mistletoe so that she can wrap both arms around his neck. "You look great, handsome. Clearly the time apart wasn't devastating," she joked, pulling him down again so that she could kiss his cheek, then the other one. "Please tell me you'll be here through Christmas? And Anise too? I have presents. And you just got here," she pointed out, maybe guilt tripping just a little bit preemptively. "I missed you too."
