[Marik gently clutches the back of her head as he holds her, not caring if she got his shirt wet or not. She was emotional, which was very understandable in this situation, and he didn't mind that one bit.

He didn't want to lose her. He knew the scenario Nemesis had played out had been false. She would never leave him... This just proved it. The gods had forgiven him. They had to have if Usagi was his gift for reforming his soul.

Marik nuzzles her hand almost desperately, relieved things were okay between them. That she wasn't angry at all the things he had done and understood he wanted to better himself, even if the answer he gave wasn't exactly what she would have wanted to hear.]

I'm sorry it was... as dark as it was. I know that was a lot to take in...

Thank you... for giving me a chance. And for staying with me.

[He turns his head to kiss her hand.]

You're the best thing to ever happen to me. You really are... I'll do anything to make you happy...
