Halo loved John with his whole being. There was nothing he wouldn't do to keep John beside him… but the demons had other plans. He melted, leaning into his lovers lips, looking up at him and smiling a bit. He knew that he was safe, knew that there was nothing to fear if he had John with him. He leans into John's hands, holding them against his cheeks as he kissed slowly at John's lips. "I love you too." He whispers, his eyes shutting as he just basked in John's arms. He was safe. They were okay. Halo pressed closer to John, just wanting to feel his warmth, wanting to just- lord he wanted everything. He felt tears threaten to fall but he forced them away, just curling closer into his beloved.
John smiled, not at all minding this loving moment. He could always have more of these moments with Halo, he could never get tired of them. Especially now with their son in the house, and that they had less time alone together to do what they wanted to do. John kissed the corner of Halo’s lips, whispering softly, “I love you until the end of time and then some, Halo. You are my angel.” His eyes were soft and alight with peaceful joy, though his hands slid away to wrap around Halo’s waist and pulled himself as close as possible, even hooking his ankle around Halo’s just to be that much closer to the man who filled his life with light and happiness.
Halo glances up at his husband, taking his hand tightly. Now that both his son and Rowan were staying with them, it was nearly impossible for them to get any time alone, but now that Rowan and Alvor were out of town on a little date, it was just them. Halo leaned into those soft kisses, returning them slowly. "And I will always love you, my darling." He whispered, his eyes shutting. Halo's hands rest around his shoulders, but Halo slowly moved to press his ear to John's chest, listening to the soft and assuring thrum of his heart. Halo pressed his lips gently against John's chest, right on his heart before trailing kisses up his shoulder, neck and jaw before pressing a slow and loving kiss against John's lips again. He smiled at John, nuzzling into him. "We have the day to ourselves, darling. How do we want to spend it?"
That trail of kisses had a small, almost purr like sound coming out of John. “Mmmm…” He hummed, his lips greedily meeting Halo when they got there. “All to ourselves?” John murmured, holding himself closer to the strong man in front of him. One hand moved, pressed against Halo’s heart and trailing down, down, down over his chest and then to his abdomen, beginning to play with the hem of his husband’s shirt. “We should savor it, being alone together for the first time in forever,” John murmured, looking up at Halo through his lashes with a somewhat playful smile.
Halo loved hearing those soft noises leave John's lips. He smirked a little into the kisses, kissing back slowly. He nods and wraps his arms more securely around his husband, playing with some of his hair. "all to ourselves." He coos. He hummed, nodding slowly at John's words. "We should." He mutters. Gosh his husband was so pretty- Halo fell in love every time he laid eyes on his husband. John was his everything, his wants and his needs, his cravings- god John was just perfect. He hummed as he pulled John closer, kissing his shoulder. "What do we want to do today?" He coos.
John let out a small noise, shifting his arms so he could hold onto his beloved husband even tighter. He wrapped one legs around Halo a little bit more, suddenly craving more contact than ever. “I want more of this,” John whispered back, hands grabbing at Halo’s shirt and balling it into fists as if that could keep him this close to Halo forever. Times were too busy, especially with their son in the house with Rowan, for intimate moments like this, so maybe John was a little bit eager to feel those perfect lips against his own and that strong body and arms enveloping him. “Halo, I want more of this, I want more of you,” John whispered, tilting his head to the side a little bit as he clung to Halo tighter.
Halo hummed as John moved closer, clinging to him tighter. He smiled and kissed his lips gently, picking John up and supporting his hips. He hummed and kissed his cheek. "More of this, huh?" he smiled warmly, just holding John closer and kissing his neck. He wanted his husband, everything had been so hectic, and life had gotten in the way of them too much. He wanted that intimacy that both of them craved so much. He kept John close, kissing at his skin, kissing his jaw and leaning up to kiss John on the mouth. "I want all of you, my love. I want to give all of myself to you." He whispers, nuzzling into the other. He ran his hand up and down John's back just holding him close.
John greedily wrapped his legs around Halo as he was picked up, needing his husband’s touch. More of his touch. “Please,” John whispered back as he wrapped his arms around Halo’s neck, grabbing the back of his shirt a little and pulling at it as he felt those heavenly kisses on his cheek and neck. And as soon as those oh so perfect lips met his own, another little desperate sound came out of his throat. He’d never get tired of those lips. Even as Halo moved to speak, John tilted his head a little as if he couldn’t stand for their lips to be parted for too long. “Take all of me,” John whispered, tilting his head back a little and baring his neck to his brilliant husband. Gosh, this man held his heart, and always would. It was impossible to think that anyone could be even the slightest bit better.
Halo chuckles softly when John moved closer, clinging to him and tried to move closer. He hummed and smiled a bit and as he kissed slowly at John's neck and shoulder. "Alright, love." He coos softly. He liked how clingy John was, and how hungry he was for touches. He kisses his lips slowly, just gently nipping and kissing at his bottom lip. He didn't want pull away so he mostly mumbled against the others lips. He left soft kisses along his neck, just holding his husband close. "I love you." He mumbles against the others skin. "All of you, hmm?" He purrs teasingly, kissing his neck. John was everything to Halo and he was relieved that the two of them could have some quiet time. It had been a while since they had such an intimate moment and Halo just wanted to be all over John.
John was melting with each soft movement of Halo’s lips against his own, and as they travelled down his neck. Gosh this man was perfect. “I love you. I’ll love you forever, for as long as I keep breathing, every breath will be for you,” John told him, almost breathlessly, as he curled and uncurled his fingers around Halo’s shirt. “All of me,” John repeated, his voice no more than a needy whisper, “Please. You have all of me.” He loved this man beyond words. Halo was meant for him, the other half of his heart that filled him up with such complete love and joy.
Halo loved seeing how clingy John was. He smiled as he heard John's words. "I love you, darling. You are my moon, my stars, my sun. You are the reason I wake up in the morning. I adore you with every fiber of my being." He whispers, kissing his lips again. "Alright my love." he whispers, kissing his nose. He carries John to their room, kissing his lips slowly and lovingly. There was just this warmth and comfort that the two of them had. There was just this love and assurance that the two of them had. They were immortal, but even then, every second could be their last. Halo wanted to spend every second with John. No matter how long they had been together, he would always love the other, no matter what happened.
((should we move to pm?))
John sunk into that lovely kiss and a giddy smile appeared on his face at that kiss on his nose. He nuzzled into this perfect man, beginning to press little kisses Halo’s forehead and temple, a small smile on his lips the entire time. He couldn’t get enough of Halo’s touch and gentle hold, he couldn’t get enough of the love they shared. “You give my life meaning, more than it ever had before,” John whispered, moving one hand to run through Halo’s hair because he’d always want to be touching him or just be near him.
