He spun the chair around and knelt down before her. “You know I’d do anything for you, right? Even if I didn’t love you as much as I do, I’d still do it, if for no other reason than having faith that I’d be back after 5 years. . . “

Hannah looked at him as he knelt in front of her; her gaze studying his face, memorizing every detail even though he was already etched into her memory. Her voice was soft, quiet following along with her hands, “I know.” Then her fingers were trailing across his temple and into the edges of his hair. She was quiet for awhile, those five years chasing across her eyes. “I have everything I want. You’re alive and we’re here, together.” Her fingers brushed through his hair, again. “I’d wait for you through this life and the next, for forever.” Hannah leaned into him, brushing her lips gently against his, like time had stopped and they could take back all these moments that had been denied them.
Asimina, Doctor
DaVinci closed his eyes and smiled as her fingertips ran through his hair, then returned the kiss with as much love as Hannah put into it.
When they finally parted, he looked into her eyes and his hands began to speak while he whispered.“One touch was all I needed to know. You were the one for me. You are my fate and my destiny. . . . “

There was something about Daniel signing to her that always set warmth spreading through her from her core. Not butterflies, she wasn’t nervous, but warmth. Hannah didn’t know a better word for the feeling. That despite her peculiarly accented voice, strange laugh, that she literally talked with her hands, and the odd mechanical devices attached to her ears and head Daniel saw her and wanted her as she was.
She loved his eyes, the sureness in the movements of his hands, and the sound of his voice. Hannah’s voice wasn’t easy to understand at a whisper, but she remained as quiet as him. Her hands conveying more depth and conviction than her voice could. “When you left you took the best parts of me with you. I lived right here,” she tested her hand over his heart, “and I always will. You are the other half of me.”
Asimina, doctor
He pulled her close and held tight. “Never again. . . never again will I let anything keep us apart for that long. No matter what happens from here on out, I will ALWAYS find my way back to you, Hannah. Promise.”
There was nothing comparable to how she felt when Daniel held her like that. She smiled and kissed him where her face was pressed against his neck and shoulder. “I know, I believe you, Daniel. And I promise, I will always wait for you. You know that, no matter how long.” The idea of Daniel being taken away from her again made her feel sick, but she also know he was worth every moment.
He held her quietly for a few more moments before finally pulling away. “What do you say we get started on helping your friend?”

Hannah sat up as he pulled away and nodded. “Okay. What do you need from me?” She really didn’t think she could help other than stay out of his way, but she would tell him whatever he wanted to know.”
Asimina, Doc
“Your friends name and rank again, any research that you know she was working on. . . . the name of that stalker guy she’s working with, and the name of her new boyfriend. All of that is a good place to start. I’ll cross-reference that info and see how many pings we get back . . . .”
After inputting all the data, he leaned back and smiled at Hannah. “This may take awhile. Any ideas on how to keep us occupied while the search is running?”
