[That's all he's ever needed. Unquestioning, quiet faith. The dependable strength of G'raha's shoulder propping him up. No judgment, nothing even resembling the voices in Amal's head that tell him he's broken, he's beyond saving, he's not worth any of this because they chose the wrong man. He realizes that it's a process, but he wants to be loved. He wants to be worthy of Raha so badly, and accepting the love he's given is the first step.
Somehow he finds a way to blush harder when he feels soft lips on his cheek. It's so... cute. It's adorable. He needs to pull it together, damn it. Amal gives himself a little bit of a pep talk inside his head-- this is the person you've been waiting for, don't just fucking lay there --and he swallows the tears that threaten to overwhelm him. Being loved, truly loved, is not a luxury he ever dreamed of having.
He turns his head so that he can return the kiss to Raha's other cheek, but he doesn't stop there. He kisses his chin, the corners of his lips, his forehead. He's overflowing with gratitude and love, so much that his heart is trembling, but he hopes it all comes through.]
My beautiful savior.
[Another kiss to the corners of Raha's eyes, as Amal finally feels the giddiness bubbling up.]
