Sage hummed softly when she pecked his jaw, a soft smile forming on his face. Well, that was good he supposed....she wasn't upset at him. And she wasn't as upset as she seemed to be about the whole topic now, which was also good. He did prefer her to not be worried. "Maybe a little longer if the kids can manage to make breakfast without burning the house down," he added in a fond joke. Really, the kids would be fine....but he knew they both would want to get up and care for them and that sort of thing. Even so, the hour or so they still had would be nice. It always was. So he just put their other conversation behind them and curled in as well, a content huff of air slipping past his lips. "I love you," he hummed after a few moments, just really, really glad he'd found her.

Mari felt the corners of her mouth twitch up at his comment about the kids. They'd be ok... at least, Silas could make toast without burning the place to the ground. She would want to get up and see them at some point, though... it was nice for them all to be together again. She thought so, anyway. Plus, the kids had missed Sage. He'd been back a little while now, she knew that, but Silas and Liz must have thought he was going to leave any chance he got. She undersood that too. At his next comment, though, she sort of raised a brow and looked up at him, a slight laugh escaping her. "Oh really?" She teased, rolling her eyes as she patted his chest in amusment. "Love you too," she added lightly.
