Justus propped his head up with one hand, using the other to caress her cheek and curls of dark hair. (Although he tried not to mess up her freshly done curls more so than they were already.) "I will never stop loving you. Ever. I would fight to the death to stop you from being taken from me. And I am equally assured of your devotion, my love," he reassured her. "I'm just speaking of my life's philosophy. Things never remain static. Something may seem perfect now, but it rarely stays that way. I hope it does. I would do everything in my power to keep things like they are now," he explained, leaning in and kissing her nose. "Yet, this is why I savor every moment with you now, and don't take a single one for granted."
