Will felt so comforted by the sound of Molly's voice telling him she understood, the physical connection of their fingers woven together, the more etherial one that orbited and tied them, it all proved to hold Will up in a moment where he would otherwise have very easily have let himself collapse. The air grew colder the closer they got to the pier, but the space around them was buzzing, alight with the energy that flowed between them.
"I dreamed about you," Will said after a moment of silence. "Every night since the night I met you." He took a breath, looking at her face in profile, her golden hair sweeping along her cheek and winding down past her shoulders. "One of those dreams, I heard your name, like an echo. I was working, alone, but I kept hearing your name. Like I was saying it, but it was coming from somewhere else."
It had been an almost eerie dream to wake up from, the sound of her name in his head like it was coming from the past and the future all at once. But it had only cemented for Will what he was already starting to feel for her, attachment and longing.
"You're the best thing I've ever had in my life," Will told her, his voice shaking a little at the admission. "I know I should be careful, patient, but there's so much of you in my head already, under my skin. And I know, very soon, you'll know everything about me." He took another breath. "I want you to know. I want you to know me."
