Those words cut him through like a knife and he felt the last of his hope and almost sanity slip from him. Albert turned whit and truly all the fight left him.
Feeling the hand on his face and then the lips on his own, Albert allowed himself to be drawn into the dream that would never be a reality, the two of them being back together and happy without anything on the outside pulling them apart. He let the kiss linger for a moment before pulling back. "Thank you," he said softly and looked down, "Thank you for making yourself the last person who kissed me again."
And he stood slowly, "I think it would be better if I found somewhere else to sleep, Bella will be safe with you." He swallowed past the lump in his throat, "I can't do this dance any more." Leaning down he pressed his lips to Fia's forehead, letting them linger for a moment before his lips found his in another soft kiss. Albert knew he shouldn't do this, it would end in hurt and more fighting, he just couldn't help himself.
