Helen had been topside from the horrible place for a few days and Xander's heart had finally stopped racing whenever she was out of his sight. Granted, he wasn't too happy that she was out at the Club drinking with Luthor, why was it always Luthor, but at least she knew she was safe. And while he didn't get the drinking, he knew this was something they needed to do.

But it did give him the chance to work on a few personal projects that he'd neglected in his worry and then in his reunion with Helen. So there he sat on the porch, forming a piece of wood in his hand with one of his woodworking tools, waiting for her to come home to him.

"It's kinda scary, isn't it?" He said for her, since he knew it wasn't something she'd ever put into words. It just wasn't who she was and he loved her for it. But that didn't change the fact it was the best way to describe the feeling. "Overwhelming. In a good way."

He lifted a hand to rub her jaw, to encourage her to relax it as he kissed her cheek just above it. "It's okay. I feel it too. I've felt it for a long time." Since before that fateful Halloween, when he never imagined he'd ever be able to admit how he felt to her, much less this.

With anyone else, she might have tried to brush it off, might have scoffed at the idea of being afraid of such a silly thing. But Saffron hid nothing from Xander, not when it came to her feelings for him, and so she nodded, just slightly. "I don't know how I got so lucky," she said, barely above a whisper. She'd never dared to think she could have ever been loved the way he loved her, and now that she had him, she wasn't ever letting go, not for anything. "You're the best thing that's ever happened to me."

The only thing Xander could do was hold her tighter against him. "Believe me. I ask myself the same thing everyday." Everyday he thanked his lucky stars that this beautiful, strong, passionate woman loved someone like him. But he wasn't going to say no. "And I think likewise."

She tilted her head up a little more so she could press her lips to his, soft and sweet and achingly tender. This, right here, this was never going to get old, was always going to be so precious to her. "Wo ai ni," she said softly, and though Xander didn't speak the language, he'd been with her long enough now he was sure to know at least what that meant.


[I love you]

It was, and always would be, the best part of any morning, afternoon and night, the pure moments that he could share with Helen. And he did know the foreign words, or at least he knew what they meant. With a smile, he laid a soft, tender kiss on her lips and hugged her tightly. “I love you too, Boss Lady,” he replied, adding his own form endearment.
