chemistryinmotion[note: this is an alternate version of this thread, starting from the comment where Wally kisses Robin again.]
Well then, I guess this is the part where I kiss the bride.
[Because this whole conversation kind of stopped being sarcastic a while ago, and there have been a lot of feelings between them ever since Christmas and Robin's disappearance and all that time in the Pokemon Center and moving into the house and sharing beds because it just felt more comfortable that way... So when he leans closer, reaches out to touch Robin's face, and actually kisses him, it's not weird at all.
In fact, it feels... well, he's not really sure what the right word is, because it's better than okay, but right sounds like he was doing something wrong before, and Midori was never a mistake, never will be. It just sort of... feels, like every good feeling all wrapped up into one singular moment, and it's that feeling—being this close to Robin the same way he'd been close to Midori and for once not thinking about her but only him—that finally lifts a weight from his shoulders, allows him to loosen his grasp on her.
Of course, he can't let her go completely, because he'll always have feelings for her, but she'd want him to be happy, to move on. And he is happy. Right now. With Robin. Happier than he's felt in quite a while. Because whatever he feels, it's good. It's nice. So when he finally does pull away after lingering for as many seconds as his lungs would let him, his forehead touching Robin's, he's smiling.]
I should probably get you a ring, huh?
