"They just don't understand," Lucas breathes in her ear, hands deft and utterly brazen when undoing the laces of her dress--but it's a brazenness that is comforting in that it's not meant to shock, it's just his straightforward nature; Lucy finds it comforting because of how familiar it is.
"Love is love, in all its means of expression, and thus cannot be anything but wonderful," Lucy agrees, grinning bright and impish before pressing a light kiss against his cheek; it's an innocent gesture at odds with the path her hands are traveling, but Lucas just smiles back at her cheerfully and brushes their noses together, before cupping her face in both hands and kissing her properly this time.
"If more people understood, perhaps they wouldn't be so unhappy all the time, and maybe there would be no more wars," Lucas suggests, a little breathless, and Lucy laughs against his mouth, saying, "Yes, but then Peter would have no more excuse to go waving his sword around, and he'd be dreadfully sad; perhaps it's best this way."
