After Sweeney had finally uttered that he cared for her they had became a litter closer but this time different than the firts time.
Eleanor had kissed him back, she wants to feel loved, she wants to feel his warmth when she feels so low and he did.
He embraces her at times, strokes her back, kisses her on her lips and on her forehead, make her feel he is there and she isn't alone with speaking the words "We're going to get trough this" it was maybe the most important thing he did say the word "we" talking like they were one, making her feel she's a part of him, he wasn't the one to show his affection but he tried not only with words but also with his actions he is taking care of her in a way she never would've tought he was capable off, she knows when he was Benjamin he was a realy carring person, but Sweeney was cruel heartless, emotionless and the only thing he was thinking about was revenge she meant nothing to him and there he was as Henry the same man but different for the third time helping her eat even if she says she could manage herself, help her dress herself, help her bathe and help her comb her beautiful auburn curls when he never cared for a woman before, he never ever bathed a woman not even Lucy in his short marriage and there he was every step of the way helping her getting better when her weak body colapsed al of a sudden, she needs time to get her strenght, her healt and power back as she is mourning quietly for Toby he is there to help her heal.

She looks at him, his head rests one her abdomen just below her breast listening to every beat of her heart while she lays on the bed she doesn't knew that but she knows he isn't sleeping she can feel it on the way he is breathing and her hand goes automatically to his hair her fingers crawls into it scraping his scalp knowing he loves it, he moves and looks up to her when she starts massaging his scalp, she always was fond of his black hair, and the beard he is growing isn't ugly it suited him even if she liked him shaved for now he can stay like this.

There eyes met she then realizes that he is coming closer "You're awake, good morning" he greets her thinking she was asleep, Eleanor is totaly suprized seing him like this usualy it isn't more than a grumbling noise but now he is realy talking.

When they were running away from Londen and were hiding under a roof when the home owners even didn't know she is like a sun shining trough his darkness the only thing he has to stay alive for.

He is starting to get worried when she didn't respond and she saw that. "Morning" she finally speaks to reassure him but he is not sure and was concerned why she responded so late

"Are yoou feeling good? Having cramps? He can't help himself asking beceause a while a go she had light cramps, feeling a light pain dull and aching on her lower abdomen.

"No it's over, I'm
alright" the expression off his face relaxes immediatly by when she answered him. He shuffles thowards her and gets to her level, Sweeney wanted her to smile again be her usual cheery and chatty self, he loved her being cheery and always talking so much even if it he never said that and gets sometimes on his nerves he is missing it and afraid she would be never like that again.

She has a insecure look on her face when he takes her chin between his thumb en forefinger so she could look him in the eye "I adore you Nellie.. I really do" it is like it becomes a habit each time when he is talking with the word 'really' when he speaks about his feelings, it was beceause he never did and he had dissapioned her so manny times that now he is affraid she wouldn't believe him.

Seeing the look in her eyes change he motions her with his fingers on her chin so she came closer. She sees his lips coming closer and closer and they were parting her eyes closes when his lips finally embraces hers with his warm ones and she respons with equal longing his hand sneeks to her neck just were the back of her head begins to support her, tasting each others mouths after so long her hands crawls to his collar pulling him to her to forget the bad memories, the images she had when the blood spurted out off Toby's head or to forget for a moment that they were running away and can be caught at any moment.
