I try really hard not to mope all the way home, but it's sort of a lost cause. I have a box full of handmade cards and little gifts from all the kids, and I kept a stiff upper lip until they were all gone, but now I'm sort of crumbling. I knew it was coming since the day I took the job, but I never realized how hard it would be.

The last day of camp is a total bummer.

When I get back home, I'm staring at my own apartment door for a moment before I remember that the dogs are at Bits' place. More importantly, Bits is at Bits' place. I spent so long dealing with things on my own, but I don't have to do that anymore. I don't have to hide what I'm feeling, not from him.

So I turn around on knock on his door, and wow, even my knock sounds miserable.

"That'd better be a promise," I reply with a low, sated laugh as he rolls over to drape a leg right over mine. It's easy as anything to just curl up against him then. My skin feels like it's buzzing and I'm sore all over in the very best way. It's always like this with him, I've noticed, but this time...

Well, knowing how he feels about me and how I feel about him, there's something different about it. Something more.

I can feel my face stretching into the widest, silliest smile, and I duck into his neck quickly to hide, my arm wrapped around him as I let out a quiet, giddy laugh. "I love you," I tell him, just because I can now. "And I'm draggin' you into the shower in just a few, but let's just lay here for now, yeah?"
