[Action, January 8th]

[Teddy certainly isn't going to resist cuddling, even if it's on ice. He slips his arms around his boyfriend's waist (and god, now he so wishes he could call him more than that) and holds him close, keeping them in place by digging one of his skates in by the toe. He shuts his eyes, taking in Billy's own scent, noticing the lack of magic thanks to not using it anymore, and finds that he doesn't mind it. There's still the sandalwood, the smell of coffee, the little things that make Billy who he is, the young man that Teddy loves so much.

He wishes he could keep holding him like this forever. And he hopes, wishes, yearns so desperately for Billy to want the same in return, to say yes when, not if, Teddy pops the question. It's so easy to imagine Billy saying either one or the other, and that's one of the things that scares Teddy into not wanting to do it just yet - and certainly not next month, with Billy's birthday and, god forbid, Valentine's Day.

But soon. He wants to do it soon, rid himself of whatever doubts he might have and kneel down and...]

That's... what I want, too. To be here with you, more than anything. Or anywhere you are. I want to follow you wherever you go... On ice or in another world or wherever.

[As long as I'm with you...]

[Billy sets free a quiet, half-breathless laugh at that, lingering for a moment before lifting his head up to smile at Teddy. He's not sure what his boyfriend's thinking about - he looks pretty damn affectionate and thoughtful right now - but if it's anything like his own thoughts, it's something serious and exceptional loving. God, wouldn't that be nice?

And seriously, seriously, what did he ever do to deserve this?]

I sure hope we don't have to go to more worlds than this one to stay together. But I'd follow you too, if we did. I really don't think anything could keep us apart for long.

They can try.

[Teddy remains smiling back at him for a moment before he blinks, smile fading a bit, then rolls his eyes as he realizes what he said.]

Wait. No, I take that back. I don't want to jinx anything. [Then the smile's back as he bumps his nose against Billy's.] But you know what I mean.

[They'd practically already been through several versions of hell together. If they can survive all of that and still be as strong as ever, they can survive anything.]

I definitely do.

[And since they're no longer moving so quickly, and since Teddy's close enough, Billy goes ahead and tilts his head just enough to turn the bump into a kiss. It's cold, but he can think of no better way to warm up.]
