The chase was on. They didn't need to speak to say what they wanted the most, they knew. Deidara knelt down on one knee, holding her hand, and placed the ring on her left ring finger. A playful smile crossed his face, the one he knew she couldn't resist, but he didn't get to see her expression for a pair of sweet lips crushed on his. Urgent, yet delicate.

He let them fall on his back, and a soft growl made it's way on his throat as her lips danced to his neck.

"So I take that as a yes, yeah"

"Yes!"

"A life on the run, h'mm"

"A life with you is the only one worth living"

So that was how it felt like to be insane. In love and 10 feet tall. Dreaming wide awake… the truth was life without one another wasn't much of a life at all.

Where they went didn't matter much just as long as he was certain that she knew exactly what it would imply, he felt the need to be reassured.

He didn't want to be another let down in her life. He wanted to make sure she knew exactly what this would mean. Running away from everything they knew, running away from all their allies, their loved ones.
Deidara was well aware of what he was getting into but, he didn't know for certain she understood.

"You're sure about that, yeah" he managed to say out loud, her last words still ringing on his ears, the ecstasy still running through his veins.

"I am" she said and every doubt was erased from his mind with just one glance at her beautiful brown eyes. He took a long breath as he pulled away of from her.

"I love you, I love you. You drive me, you are my life. It's like the world doesn't even exist without you"

He didn't need any further reassurance. She was the one he couldn't live without. He knew exactly what she meant with those words.

"If ever there was someone to belong to I…"

She was caught off by a soft pair of lips crushing on to hers. Why she had been so afraid before she didn't know.

Right then it felt like everything clicked together.

Him and her, like a lunacy fringe. Like the cards had fallen in all the right places. Escaping from the world hand in hand.

"I-love-you" his soft lips whispered as they made the way down to her collarbone.

And it was then she knew there was nothing else but him. That life held no meaning without him, that his strong arms shaped around perfectly around her body, like she had been designed for him.

Walking on air, that's how it felt like being next to him. Gravity didn't hold her anymore. This man, his smile, his voice, his eyes shaped the world. To fall across the universe, a feeling unlike no other. His lips on her skin, burning it, making it his. If ever there was someone to belong to it would have to be him.

Him and his eyes of blue fire.
