Hermann smiled and kissed the corner of Newton's lips.
"You likely would have accepted if I'd simply asked," he noted with amusement. "As evidenced by your first proposal."
But he'd wanted a more traditional formality behind the gesture. If Newton had offered him a ring, the matter would have been entirely different.
"But you don't need to trade your engagement ring for a wedding band. You could wear them both if you'd like."
Hermann reached up and teased the wine glass from Newton's fingers. Taking a step back, he raised the glass and drank the rest himself. He made a face in the light, shuddering a moment, then ported the glass elsewhere. All that just to twine their fingers together. He cleared his throat and tipped his head against Newton's.
"Mmn better savored, but liquids don't teleport well."
