[ Jim holds up Zell's hand in his own, looking down at the ring and then up at Zell. He raises his eyebrows. ]

I'm not the only one that's good with my hands.

[ He can't quite believe Zell's been thinking about it this long, and he feels a swell in his chest. Normal people might take the time to say 'I love you' or something, but Jim blurts out: ]

What if I want to keep this one?

TAKING SOME LIBERTIES

[swatsflies]

[ He seems to preen at the compliment. Shifting his hold to make it easier as he decides to show just how good he is. Flipping Jim over as he rolls to be on top. Leaning down to kiss him breathless into the mattress.

Once he remembers he needs to breathe, he'll plant his hands on either side of Jim to keep from squishing him completely under him. Nuzzling against his ear as he talks ]

You can wear two.

[ He knows Jim's I love yous are gifts shown through actions and letters more than words. ]

I did make a matching one. It's in my other pocket.

oh my

[rattlingthestars]

[ Jim blinks up, a little stunned, before he dives for Zell's pocket without any warning. He comes up with the second ring, running his thumb over it to get a feel for which key Zell had used without looking. ]

That means it's my turn, right?

this is dumb pfft

[swatsflies]

[ A part of him was hoping Jim might stay in his pockets. He's perplexed by what Jim is up to. ]

Your turn?

[ Tracing along his jawline, while looking up at him. ]

[rattlingthestars]

[ Maybe later.

Jim leans into the touch but then sits back on Zell's thighs, considering him. ]

Zell -

[ He hesitates, thinking it over, and then shrugs before holding out the ring. ]

Forever, right?

[swatsflies]

[ For a moment he's distracted as he looks Jim over. Then he nods as he lifts his hand up for the ring. ]

Yeah. Forever, baby.

[ Placing his other hand on Jim's hip as he sits up too. Just going to bump noses against each other. ]

Going to do my best to make you proud and give you reasons to look forward to the future.

[rattlingthestars]

You already did,

[ Jim says as he captures him in a kiss. ]
