His kiss was better known, now, a thing she was starting to know from him, something he liked - and she liked just as much it turned out. Her face turned up, her lips parting with a soft smile as he kissed her.
One she finds she wanted to keep going - until the puppy protests the shifting that disturbed its nap. Squirming and yawning with a sad yip and burrowing to get comfortable again.
They part, and she smiles still happy as she looks back into his eyes, softer, more herself in these garments, the flowers shifting, sending loose petals about them. "May I always honour you so. For I could never imagined such happiness as this, with you."
They had done their duty, they had made their display to serve their people, they had ensured peace and connection - and her heart swelled as the weight of the last year of worry and preparation sunk from her to the chance of happiness felt in so long.
