Sam definitely doesn't seem to let her go far, he's too busy holding on to her. Knowing she's there, feeling her warmth, it's the only thing that keeps him from almost having a meltdown. But then she's babbling and he needs her to stop, to breath for a moment, and damned if he doesn't know the best way to shut his ex up is to do the most trope-y thing he can and kiss her.

So he does.

Again.

Well this time it's him kissing her and not her kissing him. Payback or something. This time when he pulls away he tries to make sure he's the one who talks first.

"It's okay, I'm here, and back home I'm alive. I promise I'm safe." Mostly. "But fuck I was so wrong to trust her. I...I shouldn't have gone with Celia, I should have listened to you. I'm so sorry Alice."
