He slowly worked from tickles to petting and nodded, "Yeah, I really am. Fer the first time in a long, long time, I would be able to distinctly classify myself as happy. M'happy with my life, with you, with my music... y'know, it's finally comin' together just how I want it to. Are you happy?"
He stopped petting and looked Miniver in the eye. It was as serious as anything he'd ever asked.
Miniver straightens up and looks right back at Pickles. Hands in his hands, he is entrely, completely serious as he nods.
"For the first time in my life... in all my life, in as long as I've lived... I am really, truly happy. For the first time... I ain't kidding you, baby... I have a home. I have a life. I have a job I like and my music and you and... god, I'm gonna cry..." He laughs brightly and presses the heels of his palms into his eyes. "I'm sorry. It's just... just... wow."
"You are the most wonderful, sweetest, biggest crybaby I've ever met in my entire life!" Pickles exclaimed as he wrapped his arms around Miniver, toppling him over the other direction, planting a deep, passionate kiss to Miniver's lips. It was just the way things had to be.
Kate leaps off the couch and trots off someplace, and Miniver lets out a loud squeak as he topples over. It IS the way things have to be, and if Pickles can feel a little damp between their cheeks as they kiss -- a tear or two from the overly emotional Poet -- maybe he won't mind too much.
"I know," he sniffs finally, stammering between kisses, "I know I am, and jeeze I'm real sorry, but... but... I mean... I... you fill me up until I ain't got nothin' but to let it all flow over... you make me so happy there's nothing I can do but laugh 'til I cry, and sometimes, sometimes... you make me hurt so much I gotta break, and then you put me back together... and god, how much I love you, Sean."
"Baby, that's what it's all about, alright? Don't worry about it... I love you fer it, I love it because I know I can make you feel like burstin'. An' don't apologize, I love tears. You know I do baby." He kissed one damp cheek, then the other, then wiped the tears away and smiled. "To be able to feel? S'a great thing, ain't it?" He smiled, "M'gunna shut up before you become a geyser."
