"I always dreamed of laying next to a fire with someone like this." "Hm is that so? Did you dream that it would be me?" "No, not really but I wished I had, I never really knew how to hold someone but I'm glad you do, it allows me to just relax and not worry if I'm squeezing too tight." "Is that your way of saying I'm holding on too tight?" "Nah you're holding on just the right amount." "Mhm, I love you, Carlyle." "I love you too, Barnum."
