He brings their joined hands up to his lips and presses a soft kiss against the top of her hand; brushes them across her knuckles. This hand could punch the hell out of a grown man and they'd thank her for it, but it's capable of this kind of gentleness too. He thinks of the way they've held hands on so many occasions, of how she'd pick Groot up when he'd still been barely more than a twig, of how she would pluck the debris from Rocket's fur after a messy mission ...
Man, he wishes this moment would literally last forever. He'd give almost anything to make it so, even if that isn't at all realistic. Even after they're done here, will they go home and recall these memories? Or would they go away, fading out like the end of a song? ]
