Shannon hummed at the words, letting them vibrate through his before he picked them out and identified what they were trying to tell him. Once he understood what he was being asked, he huffed in an obvious indignation and brought his second hand up to the other's shoulder to try and draw him downward into a kiss. He still wasn't quite to the point of vocalizing his thoughts yet, though he was slowly getting there, and he figured this was a better way to express himself. It had been one of the most fantastic things in his life, definitely the best fuck he'd ever gotten, and he almost couldn't get it through his head that it had actually happened. There was no time to make it permanent in his mind when it was currently so permanent in his body that there was no need.

His hand, the one making lazy motions in Eli's hair, shifted further up against his skull and tried to hold him in the kiss. Even if he couldn't muster the energy to put much into it, he wanted to make it last, make it important. Eli had to understand what he was trying to say.
