::he shook his head, looking to her, seeing her back as herself, and smiled warmly:: It doesn't matter...

"It hurt you, whatever it was." She brushed his cheek with her fingertips. "You look about ready to kill someone."

Her eyebrow rose. "Just careful you aren't checking ME trying to get at her." She shuffled a step forward, leaning into him for comfort, sweaty from running or no.

::he put his other arm around her, kissing her forehead for the first time, skin-on-skin:: No violence, just words. I promise.

She nuzzled into his neck, knowing full well that he knew what to do should Mary go to far. "I didn't know this would feel different, but it does."

::he smiled, both arms around her now, he tilted his head down, lifting her chin so she faced him:: I wonder if this does too... ::and he softly kissed her::

She held the kiss for a long time, tasting his lips, then pulled away smiling a little. "It does...not too different, but it does."

She thought it over, just resting in his arms a minute. Happiness was a foreign concept to her, as touch had been only hours ago. The most she'd ever reached was a vague sense of contentment; even in the days before, when she and Tim could touch despite her power, there was always the nagging sense of worry in the back of her mind, constant stress over what would happen if he touched her without thinking about using his power, or if she touched someone else by accident...it went on and on. Now she felt as if a boulder had been lifted off her. "Yes, I think this is being happy. I hope it is."

::he smiled warmly again, kissing her deeply, letting it linger, before he slowly broke the kiss:: Good...that's what I want more than life.

"I'm still scared out of my skull, but at least I'm happy about it," she amended, smiling up at him a little.

::he shrugged, kissing her forehead:: It's to be expected baby...this is new, ya know? You just have to get accustomed to it...

She nodded and leaned her head on his shoulder a second before going to start back towards the mansion, taking his arm and wrapping it around her waist to tug him with her. "The others are going to freak."

::he laughed softly:: You should go up to the Professor and give him a big kiss on his head, just to see his reaction...
