[ Hyunki swallowed around a lump of feelings in his throat, nodding as he slipped his arms around Adder's waist. ]
Okay. Can I do the same? Can I promise you the same? Because I know I'm small, and I'm probably insignificant compared to the things you face, but I want to protect you, too. And I want to make you happy. I want to see you smile, every day. For it to be the very first thing you do when you wake up, because you're thinking of me, and that makes you happy.
[ being in hyunki's arm quieted everything down in his mind and he could breathe much easier than before. a habit he wanted to actually grow accustomed to.
the words, though, nothing could have prepared him for them. ]
The fact you want to - Hyunki, it means everything. You mean everything and you're not insignificant at all. You're - you've changed everything.
[ pressing a little closer, he gave a nod of his head. ] You're already doing that. I fall asleep smiling because of you and wake up smiling because of you.
[ He smiled, looking up to brush his nose against Adder's. He knew what he meant, when he said insignificant. He was no God, no warrior, not even a soldier. He was just a boy, he was just a tree. But he'd give Adder his all, if it meant being able to keep him safe and warm and smiling. ]
I'm so glad I found you, that night. You've changed everything for me, too. In the very best way.
[ He smiled then, too, and didn't keep himself from leaning in completely, kissing Adder with every ounce of his being, with everything he was made of, a proof in no words at all. ]
[ destiny, fates, luck - they were all pretty words to try and describe what could be. a longing for hope, perhaps, or an explanation for the state of things. but adder had never really believed in fate until the moment hyunki appeared in his life, changing everything all around.
he never wanted to go back to how things were pre-hyunki.
the kiss moved him even more than the words and he returned it, deeply, passionate and with every single ounce of awakening emotion within him.

I swear to always take care of you as long as you're with me. I'll protect you, I promise, and make sure you're happy.
