[He shifts to also lay on his side, still close and letting Childe's warmth seep into him. His eyes soften at the kiss and the words. His knight's smile feels like everything Aether would ever need in life, especially now in the light of the morning. It's beautiful and endlessly charming, so much so, that the prince stares a little in awe.
Everything feels like a dream or like one those fairytales told to children before sleep. Except it's unmistakably real, tangible. Aether reaches out and he can feel warmth of Childe's skin beneath his fingertips. His hand goes up, until it reaches the cheek, pushes away so unruly strands of ginger hair and marvels at his lover.]
It was worth everything.
[Just for this moment alone, to have Childe next to him, playing with his hair, smiling at him... it's worth paying any price. Aether can't even imagine there ever will be a moment in his life more beautiful and tender than right now.]
