Yeah? Then what would you call this? You and me?

[He can't help teasing now, his eyes opening again to watch G'raha's expression. Everything they're saying to each other makes a lot of sense. Being partners, watching out for each other, being there for each other, supporting each other. All of that makes sense. He wants that, even if there's a margin of wonder in Zack's chest about how the future might be for them.

But he still kind of likes hearing G'raha ramble on with his explanations, trying to cover up what he means or explain it to Zack so he won't tease. Zack likes to hear it as it makes him let out a small amused chuckle.

On a more on-topic answer, Zack feels his heart shifting again when G'raha just so easily leans into his touch.]

I don't know how I can say no to that when I want those same things for you. You're incredible, Raha. I can tell you wear that bleeding heart of yours on your sleeve. I just want to see you happy. Without regretting things.

He brings his nose close again. This time offering G'raha a slow chaste kiss. But taking it all the same.]
