Damon's brows came together, and he wanted to say how things were not so simple and that his concerns were genuine, but Talia was quick to put her fingers over his mouth.

"I know what you are going to say, Damon, but don't. Not now. Now it's just the two of us and I won't allow anyone to spoil this moment."

But she was right there, pleading for a few moments of normalcy where she won't worry about enemies that were invisible and all around them, and how could he say no to that?

Damon's shoulders relaxed and his lips moved to kiss fingers that were pressing there.

'I love you, kitten.', his voice sounded in her head, and he enjoyed the way her eyes lit up in response.
