Another song-fic offering from a devoted Kunzite/Zoisite 'shipper, this time set to 'Breathe' by Faith Hill. In case you were wondering why Beryl is dead, but Kunzite and Zoisite are alive, then may I suggest you read my other story, 'Here With Me', because 'Breathe' is set after it. ^_~ I know, I know, I'm a shameless self-promoter, but what are you going to do? ^_^ ~Breathe~

I can feel the magic floating in the air

Being with you gets me that way

I watch the sunlight dance across your face

And I've never been this swept away

All my thoughts just seem to settle on the breeze

When I'm lying wrapped up in your arms

The whole world just fades away

The only thing I hear is the beating of your heart…

There's always magic in the air when I wake up after we've spent the night together. I usually wake up late then, and you even later. I think it's the sun coming through the window, and falling onto my back and across your face- it just makes the whole world fade into the distance as I lie in your arms. All I hear is your soft, even breathing, and the slow, steady beating of your heart…

Cause I can feel you breathe

It's washing over me

And suddenly I'm melting into you

There's nothing left to prove

Baby, all we need is just to be

Caught up in the touch

A slow and steady rush

Baby, isn't that the way that love's supposed to be

I can feel you breathe…

This is the way love's supposed to be, Kunzite, I know it. Being lost in each other's kisses and caresses, melting into each other…We don't have to prove ourselves to anyone, we don't have to be strong and distant, we can just get caught up in the flow, in the slow and steady rush of passion flowing between us…

In a way I know my heart is waking up

As all the wall come tumbling down

Closer than I've ever felt

I know, and you know

There's no need for words right now…

After the defeat of Queen Beryl, after her control over us was broken, I could feel my heart start to awaken from its long slumber. In that moment, the first time we made love since our release from her spell, I don't think I'd ever felt so close to you, or to anyone else. All the barriers were gone, and we could finally love each other the way we should. I remember looking at you afterwards, with the sun shining onto your face. You looked at me, and I looked at you, and we both understood- sometimes words alone can never express how much you truly care for someone…

I can feel the magic floating in the air

Being with you gets me that way…
