Every morning, Marcus loves to watch his lover right before he wakes up. He loves watching how the stretches of light which filter in through the blinds plays over his features; throwing each one of them into sharp and exquisite relief.

And each morning, he is reminded of just how much he loves him; how much he doesn't believe that he's worthy of the beautiful and loving creature that is so tangibly his now.

It's a lot for him to take in.

Seth always tells him that even if he doesn't feel worthy, that he is just as deserving of a happy ending. There are times, though, where Marcus isn't sure of that. But even so, none of it changes how feels about Seth; he knows that there isn't anything in the world that could change how he feels about the young man.

Part of why he wakes up every morning and watches Seth, is just to reinforce the idea that yes, this young man loves him and is his. It's all he needs to be able to get through the day; that one moment of peace.

FIN.
