They came halting to her at the best of times and she had her own nerves to wrestle with. So, when Riley slipped out of his shirt and moved towards her, Robin met him with open arms, burying her nose against the line of his jaw. It was tempting, so very tempting, to just let her actions speak but Robin also understood how important words could be. Especially in moments like this, so she gave Riley the only words she had. "I love you," she told him, the words almost harsh; fiercely whispered against his skin. "An' its you. It's always gonna be perfect to me. Cuz its you."

There really hadn't been much room in the tent - but that was okay, they hadn't needed very much. "That was great," he told her sincerely, his skin still tingling all over as he hugged her from behind. "Really...great." They'd have to get up soon and get dressed, he'd have to pack up the tent and store it again behind one of the ventilation shafts up here, and they'd have to make their ways home to their respective beds. But they didn't have to do anything just then but lay together, and he was content to let that go on a little more.
