There's a steady beat in his ears, the pound of his heart a fluttering sound, background noise as she speaks. He's trying not to think, trying not to think about what kind of disaster this might end them both up in, so he just focuses on her, watching her mouth move and feeling the warmth of her against him. He wants to cherish this, experience it as much as he can, so he can seal it away inside his heart and revisit it whenever he's feeling melancholy. He wants to remember the way she smiles at him.
He grins, white teeth contrasting the black fur of his face. There's an impish glint in his eyes. "Guess we're meant to be, then. Two dumbasses against the world." When she goes on to bring up that one time she had bit him, he just chuckles, deep and warm. "I dunno, it wasn't that bad. I kinda liked it." he says with a wink. Was he actually kidding, though? Who knew.
Greed's smile only widens, his chest warm and light. He was lucky to even have this moment. Still, he tries not to think of that, or anything else negative that could ruin this. He only holds her, drowning in her. He responds to her purring with his own, loudly rumbling.
"Well, that's the kind of thing ya do to me, Rox. You make me a cheesy man." That's what he would have said, had she not pressed an eager kiss to his mouth. He tenses out of surprise, but once he realized what had happened, he quickly returned the gesture, a wide smile offered to her once they parted.
"Damn, that's the best kiss I've had in a few hundred years." he admits, nose burying itself in her fur when she gets settled on top of him.
He's quiet, then, enjoying the moment, the serene atmosphere of it all. How long had it been since he felt this happy, this fulfilled? He couldn't say exactly, but a long damn while, he was sure. He could have never seen himself falling in love again, not after what happened last time, yet here he was. He couldn't put into words how good it felt.
When she speaks up again, he can't help nodding his head in agreement, staring up at the stars that flickered in the night sky. "Me neither. I wouldn't trade any of my moments with you, not for the whole world." It felt odd to be pouring his heart out like this, laying it all out bare, but he supposed that's what he should do now, or should have done a long time ago.
