Michael listened to her quietly as he watched her, taking notice of her quickened heart beat, chewing on his lip, because his own heart was racing, and a part of him was certain their hearts were beating in sync. "Right... That makes sense," he murmured quietly, offering a weak smile, because a part of him had been hopeful, even if he didn't really understand what love felt like anymore.
Liz smiled as she listened to him, and she relaxed with his tightened hold, letting herself just succumb to how she was feeling towards Luke, letting herself accept it, but not saying it aloud yet, not wanting to say those words and ruin this. Instead, she settled down, relaxing against her pillow, still keeping Luke close, wanting to protect him through the night, wanting him to be safe.
