Others came to try and console him, to try and take the body, to try and take his soul away, but Richard fought them all, grief turning outwards as he raged against those who would try to tear them apart. He would not let Lewis go, not while there was a breath left in him, and the set of his shapely mouth told a tale of unflinching, desperate determination.
"You cannot leave me. I will not let you," he whispered, caressing the side of that angelic face, as beautiful in death as it had been in life.

Then, it happened. A flutter of lashes, and soulful brown eyes revealed themselves as Lewis' eyes gradually opened. "You brought me back," he whispered, faint smile gracing his lips as he gazed up at Richard devotedly.
"How could I not, my love?" was all Richard could say, before speech became a thing inconsequential. Love had conquered all.
