I'm sure you all knew this one was coming :P I had no choice, really...
Again, unwavering love for you all, still blowing my mind!

V is for (naturally) Vienna. The place where dreams came true.
Sort of.
We may not have gotten very far but I did win a kiss from you willingly and you shared a bed with me. I think you liked being so improper with me, enjoyed how it felt to be ensconced with a man you were not attached to in any way in a hotel room without the knowledge of any one else. Despite the impropriety of the situation, you clung to me as if it would save your reputation.
I'll be honest, I did truly consider trying to push my luck and your skirts up. I could feel in the quiver of your body that you would have been receptive to such an action but part of me knew, as wonderful as it would have been to claim you then and there, it wouldn't last. I desperately wanted to take you for my own but I wasn't after just one night. I wanted you forever Helen and I knew that that night you wouldn't have been able to give me what I truly needed.
So I held you tight to my chest and fell asleep dreaming of what it would be like to fall asleep like that every night for the rest of our very long lives. You drifted off quickly, exhausted from our day chasing electric abnormals around the city. Your skin still tingled against mine and never in all my years have I felt quite that happy. Well, that's not true in as much as there have been several moments in the past few months that have rivalled that moment but I like to think that was the moment I decided I had to woo you come hell or high water.
V is for Vienna, for the start of our love affair (even if it was a little one-sided back then).
