[ Byleth's lips try and chase Dimitri's when they pull away before stopping just short of hearing his earnest plea. Does he still doubt how much he loves him after all this time? Does he still think he's not the only one he thinks of when he's alone? The one he dreams of, the one he touches himself to, the one he thinks of when he wakes up and before he falls asleep? Does he still believe that Byleth doesn't also want a future for the two of them? Heirs or no heirs. King, Archbishop, teacher, student, human, immortal... it doesn't matter.
He pushes himself up on his toes this time, adjusting his arms to loop around Dimitri's neck so he can feel the heat of his forehead with his own before he kisses him until his lips start to tingle and bruise. ]
You are mine. For more than just tonight.
[ Fingers burrow into the hair at the base of his neck as he kisses the corner of Dimitri's mouth next and whispers- ]
And I am yours. Always and forever.
[ It may as well be a marriage vow, though he doesn't need anything official to make it real and tangible. He already decided he would love him for the remainder of Dimitri's life and long after. No one else can compare to the way he had touched his life -showed him how to be human. The first one to make him really smile and laugh. The first one to make him feel like he had something more than an ancient stone in his chest.
He would give him the world in return. ]
Can I stay with you... every night?
[ He'd hesitated on asking unsure what the proper protocols are between nobles and commoners. Do kings even share their rooms? It probably doesn't matter. He'd gotten used to sleeping in Dimitri's bed rather quickly and being surrounded by the smell of him. It was the only thing that brought him any comfort while he'd been gone.
If it's improper, they'll break the rules. They've already challenged enough of them already by being together. ]
