"That's perfectly fine, dear," The woman said quietly. "You don't need to."

He looked at her. "Are…are you sure?"

"I'm sure," the woman promised.

He bit his lip a little. "Then…then can we…can you…" He didn't know how to ask. He looked at Gabe for a moment, then at the woman again.

"Please," Gabe said softly. The thought of being alive again, he… it was incredible. Impossible. Yet… here it was.
"Then step over here," the woman said softly, motioning for Gabe to go to her.

Alex let go of Gabe's hand, biting his lower lip faintly, hardly able to believe that he was going to get him back, whole and healthy and…and alive.

Gabe let go in turn, looking at Alex for one last time before moving forward. The woman placed her hand against his chest, closing her eyes. And then… well, he just there. Alive. In a body. Gabe didn't even have time to process what had just happened, just like what had happened with Alex.

Alex's eyes went wide at the sigh of Gabe's new body, and he nearly tripped and fell as he wrapped his arms tight around the other man.

Gabe stumbled some, then wrapped his arms around Alex in turn.
"I've got you…" Gabe spoke softly, burying his face in Alex's hair.

(gtg, will be back in an hour or two)

Alex buried his face in Gabe's shoulder. "Love you."

"I love you too." Gabe gently kissed the top of Alex's head, pulling him closer.
"So, so much…"

Alex clung to Gabe, not wanting to let go ever again.

Gabe looked up a moment, at the woman who had brought him back.
"Thank you," he said softly. He ran his fingers through Alex's hair, tears coming to his eyes.

He looked up at the woman, murmuring his own thank you.

The woman offered a soft smile.
"You're welcome," she said. Then, she turned, and was gone. And when they were alone, Gabe bent his head down, kissing Alex quickly.

Alex kissed him back, clinging to him desperately.

Gabe tangled his hand in Alex's hair, the other arm around his waist and holding him close. He kept kissing, pulling them further into the shadows to protect them from prying eyes.

Alex set the bag down, wrapping his arms around Gabe's shoulders.

Gabe pulled away from the kiss a moment, tears trickling down his cheeks. He buried his face in Alex's shoulder, just so… relieved. He was alive, for goodness sake!

Alex put a hand on the back of Gabe's head, eyes closed.

Gabe nuzzled close, rubbing Alex's back.
"I… We're going to make a life for us out here," Gabe promised softly.

He nodded a little, leaning close to Gabe.

Gabe let out a breath, grinning.
"I love you, so, so much…"

"I love you too." he whispered, smiling.

Gabe nuzzled lightly into Alex's hair, breathing deeply.
"God, I… I n-never thought we would be able to do something like this…"
