It's good this way, face to face, dancing blind. The only dancing he truly excels at, and he's not sure why Ray ever denied him this.

"Why—?" Fraser wants to ask, but chokes it off. Why, at last? Why now?

Ray shrugs against him and answers anyway, his voice sounding thick and strange. "I woke up. You were here."

"I'm here," Fraser answers stupidly. "I'll always be here."

Oh Ray, Ray, Ray...how can you doubt Fraser? *sigh* Thanks so much - what a lovely, emotional dance. I think that Ray may have learned a new step or two...nice. :)
