Rei doesn’t say a word.

“My lady, I’m sorry” he finally murmurs embarrassedly when the silence between them starting to get unbearable. Bringing your hand to his lips to press a tender kiss against your soft skin in desperate search for forgiveness, he continues cooing, "please, don't be angry."

"I can't stand seeing you upset," he whispers, his voice velvety smooth, carrying the weight of centuries-long loneliness, "I value our bond more than you could possibly imagine..." Rei's fingers intertwine with yours to bring you closer.

He nearly whines, like a goddamn puppy, searching for its owner’s attention. All these months he's been missing you like hell. To be this close and at the same time so far is simply torturing. He wants to kiss you senseless, wants to shower you with all the affection he was too busy to give you these past months. He wants to tell you how much he missed you, how often your face haunted his thoughts.
