You always want me to flirt with you, too, and yet you get so flustered every time I attempt it...

[It's light, though, moreso than he usually is.]

I won't say that nothing will ever happen, because we've seen enough by now to know why I can't promise that. But I will promise you that I won't willingly leave you, and no matter what happens, I'll always come back to you. No matter what stands in the way, or what it takes to return to you, I always will. I've beaten enough odds to think that I can manage that well enough, even if it takes time.

Do you believe me?
