."No one's too old to make a snowman," I said with an evident scoff in his voice, "Or are you just afraid to get a little cold?" it was the General's turn to snort, tightening his arms around my waist gently."I can't get cold if you're around," he said into my hair and I wondered if he even meant for me to hear it.As it was, a bright blush infused my features and I was very glad for a moment that the man could not see me.We sat like that for a while, observing the dazzling world outside as it slowly started to awaken.Then lips brushed back and forth over the exposed skin of my shoulders and back, his breath very warm, "Very well, a snowman it is.And then, once the streets are cleared, we can see about getting a car to get your things out of here," I blinked in confusion, stilling, wondering what on earth the man was talking about."Um, I'm sorry but what?" there was a beat of silence and then a hand snaked around to turn my head, fingers on my chin very warm.The dark eyes were serious as they regarded me."Well, you can't stay here, now can you? There's hardly a reason anymore and I have always thought my house was too big for just one person," I blinked then blinked again, mouth opening in shock as I realized just what the older man was implying.He couldn't be serious, could he?

I asked in a sly voice and there was another chuckle, the smile stretching happily as it was pressed into my skin."I'll make you as many cups of hot chocolate as you want," hmm, I was going to have to hold him to that.I was pretty sure, as I leaned my head back against on strong shoulder, that my giddy smile had crossed the line into stupid a long time ago."Then yeah, I'd like that,"After all this time, I had finally found what I was looking for and it was right there, in this steady warmth I had found in Roy's arms.Perhaps now I wouldn't be afraid to live my life.And it was perfect.The perfect love affair
