[ even if they ended up being fighting anyway, if they went by chronological order, but . . . it made enough sense for eren's eyes to soften. maybe selfishly, maybe in just overall relief. an outer opinion was better to lead him along than his own when he wasn't feeling well enough to see them himself. to that, eren realizes when he puts the side of his head back on his pillow and looks at elliot that, maybe, he didn't want to spend any more time dwelling on the subject. he brings his husband close, face to face and by the hips, touching front to front. ]
It was worse before, wasn't it? [ the tip of his nose brushes into elliot's, now cupping his face and sighing out a hushed: ] Thank you. For always being here.
[Those words seem to satisfy Eren. Or rather, give him some semblance of peace over the matter. Good. He knows how easily the memories could gnaw at Eren sometimes. He's come such a long way in the past few years. ]
Mm, but you've really improved. [It was Eren that improved, not Elliot working any kind of magic. He gives a gentle smile as he tilts his head to properly kiss Eren's nose]
Eheh, what are you thanking me for? I happily signed up for this, remember?
[He had no regrets in marrying Eren. No matter their past lives, Eren had always been the most important person in this life to Elliot. Ever since that day they spoke at that summer camp all those years ago. ]
