After that long and overwhelming hug, Yera was still caged in Xander's arms. He stared at her with gently narrowed eyes. He wiped the remaining tears on her cheeks away as he mumbled, "Thank you for reaching out to me first, darling. I'm really grateful that you're here, right now. Do you know how much I missed you? So much so, that for one day that I intentionally got wasted last night, so I can sleep without missing you."
Yera did not respond. She only pursed her lips as her face reddened, hoping Xander would not mention what happened last night. However, Xander seemed to be reading his thoughts saying, "Hmm, I remember last night… You do take a lot of liberties in my drunken state darling."
