Something in Damian's chest melts when Arie says that, and it's completely unrelated to the lust they're both high off of. It has Damian shuddering and abruptly releasing Arie's hips to instead wrap his arms around the rock star, holding him tight to just kiss him, letting him know without so many words that the sentiment is fully returned. He's seized by the wild urge to beg Arie to stay this time and never leave him, but he barely manages to swallow down that urge. The kiss definitely helps, giving him another way to pour out the emotions threatening to swamp him over. It might make it harder for Arie to ride him, but surely they can both spare a minute or several for this, right?
