When Steve looks over at Maeve again, she's staring down at the necklaces
with tears in her eyes. They're good tears, he thinks, but something in his
gut twists at seeing Maeve cry at all and he moves closer to her, holding
the messenger bag in his lap as his other arm goes around Maeve's
shoulders. He looks down at the necklaces in the box, identical aside from
the initial and the chain length, and then back at the side of her face.
"Does this mean that you like them?" He asks quietly, kissing away a tear
on her cheek before nudging his nose against her temple, giving her
shoulders a squeeze. "Maybe it's a little old-fashioned, but I got one for
me, too. If you're wearing mine, then I want to wear yours, you know?
'cause we're a team."
