Raven didn't say anything, but simply nodded and let her head rest on his shoulder. Several moments passed, and she trembled, letting out a soft sob.

::Xavier's arm remained wrapped around her, supporting her. He had not intended to further upset her with this visit; instead, it had been intended for her benefit.:: "If I have to, I will send someone to you."

Mystique sniffed, tightening her arms around him. "How like you to say something like that," She said quietly.

::Xavier continued to gently rub her back, holding her close to soothe her.:: "Would you rather I were not me?"

"Not at all," Raven said softly. It was Charles that she loved. And Charles that she lost.

::Xavier kissed the top of her head, feeling her soft hair against his lips, his cheek. What he could not do when she was awake, or anywhere outside of this realm.::

Raven's hand slid upward to touch Charles' cheek, and she tilted her head upward to brush her lips against his. Such a soft, warm feeling, and one she could not find while awake.

::Xavier found his lips captured by hers, and he closed his eyes, giving himself to the sensations that he could not have in the world outside of her dreams. His arm remained wrapped around her.::

The realm of her dream seemed to melt along with Raven, as she succumbed to the sensation of Charles pressed against her with his arms around her, and their lips locked. Slowly she deepened the kiss, caressing his cheek tenderly.

::Even within her dream, Xavier did not need air; it was because he did not belong to the realm. His other hand covered hers atop his cheek, as the kiss deepened.::

Nor did Raven require to come up for air, as it was her dream. She could spend eternity in this kiss, melting into Charles until they became one. That was what it had felt like when they were together, after all. Like at any given moment they would really be two halves to a person, instead of two individuals.

::After the kiss had lasted for at least five minutes of actual time with no break, Xavier realized that if it were to be broken, he would have to do it. As such, he pulled back; this would not help her move on, if it were to continue.:: "I want you to take what I say seriously."

Raven looked up at him again, her tears threatening to spill again. "I will try, Charles. But even if I open myself up again, I would give up anything in a heartbeat to spend another day with you. Because you are and always will be my mate."

"I know, Raven, and if I could give it to you, I would," ::Xavier said, his hand moved to cup her cheek gently. Heaven knows he had tried, but nothing he could do would make her see him.::

"I suppose it wouldn't do if I kept looking for you in my dreams," Raven said softly, looking up at him. Her hand came to rest atop his on her cheek.
