( when he's pulled into the other man's lap, he complies, settling there with legs on either side of steve. hands reach out within the darkness to grasp softly at the sides of steve's neck, needing to hold him and feel his warmth beneath his touch. to know that he's real β that he's here. that they're both here and nowhere else.
blue eyes falling shut, he hums a little softly at the question, a slow nod to follow. )
I've got you here with me. How can I not be?
( he can't help the smile there on his lips, even if it's soft in the darkness. )
There's no one else here I'd rather be contracted to. ( words soft, hands gently squeeze at steve's neck and he noses the man, chuckling softly against his mouth. ) Don't ask me if I'm sure about it or how I could still meet someone else. I said what I said and I mean it, so. You should just accept it.
