"I want to protect you, cherish you and love you for as long as I live," Yelena said, as she slowly traced patterns onto Kate's forearm. It was morning, the bed was soft, and Yelena was feeling honest.

"I want to do the same for you," Kate replied, shifting slightly so Yelena was half on top of her. "I also want to kiss your perfect face for as long as I can," Kate added, closing the gap between them and slowly kissing Yelena.

Enjoying the feeling of Kate's lips against her own, Yelena thought she could get used to this.
