Letting out a slow, long sigh, he let his eyes close. Taking a shaking deep breath, he let himself focus on the feeling of Jim's hands and lips on his cheeks, savoring the warm brush of skin and the even warmer feeling the bloomed in his chest. "You're such a reckless idiot." His voice stayed low and sweet, rough with emotions and full of pure love for the blonde. "Mine, all the same... but you're gonna give me heart failure one day."
Lowering his hands, he let them rest on Jim's hips lightly. Letting his eyes slip over his face, he leaned in and pressed his lips to the bridge of Jim's nose adoringly. The words coming from his captain made him smile, hell, it lightened up all his features and eased lines of tension in his face and all the way down into his shoulders. "What would I do without you?" Probably end up a very lonely and bitter old man in the endless expanse of space, but that really wasn't that important because well, like Jim said... why deal in what ifs.
Ducking his head, an affectionate smile bloomed over his face as he pulled at the other man gently. "When you talk like that on top of giving me the only other thing I could possibly want in this life... I want to do ridiculously sappy things that just aren't right." He laughed lowly and tipped his head to kiss him again, slow and soft. Tenderly nibbling on his lips, he hummed a low sound. "Like carrying your ass straight to bed and kissin' ya senseless."
And he didn't mean just any kinda carryin' either. But he'd let Jim figure out which was the sappiest way to be toted off and just took that moment to look his lover in the face and commit the moment to memory. "Thank you..." He looked down a moment, a red flush warming his skin. "Know it just doesn't say enough, but there it is. Everything most important to me is right here. Know that?" Lifting one hand, he moved it to cup about the side of Jim's face and let the pad of his thumb smooth over his cheek. "I love you. Ain't much different either... I'd do anything for you. Swear sometimes I could walk through fire for you. But ya know... all you'd have to do, darlin' to make me smile is smile yourself. Doesn't matter how many times I see it, gives me damn butterflies every time. Not that hard for you." Maybe for anyone else, but not for Jim. Just being with Jim made him happier than he could expect.

Especially when he did things like this.
