Even with them on, it felt like she wasn’t wearing them. They seemed to blend against her skin, dispersing warmth, working in some… strange, alien technology kind of way.
Jack smiled, took her hands, and pressed them to his face. He shut his eyes as he held her hands there, before pulling his face away. There were no ice burns to his face whatsoever. “See? I made them while you guys were out there.”
“Oh Jack..” she whispered, her lips curving up into a smile. “I can’t believe you did this..this is amazing!”
She reached up to his cheeks again, caressing the skin, being able to actually feel him through the gloves. She could touch him. Oh god she could touch him.
She wanted to hug him but only her hands were protected so she caressed his skin instead, looking at him with eyes filled with love.
“Thank you Jack..Now if only..if only I could figure out how to work my powers when I sleep..”
He hummed as he felt her hands touch him again, shutting his eyes as she did. Jack lifted his hands; revealing he’s wearing a pair like hers, and touches her wrists gently.
“I’d like to think you don’t cause any trouble while sleeping, Katelynn.” he opens his eyes. “Unless we’d hear more about Hot Flash setting fire to her own lairs.”
