[His heart is beating fast, excitement and nervousness mixing into a dizzying combination. He kisses back eagerly until he can't anymore-- until he's pulling away to catch his breath, to look up at Marc.
He can't help a smile at the sight of him, just-- happy. That's all. He just feels happy. For everything they've been through, all the wrong things int heir life, this-- feels right. It feels good. Like something he's been waiting his whole life for.]
Marc-- [There's just the softest laugh as he reaches up to brush his hair back.]
We should, um-- we should finish our dinner, yeah?
[Marc nods, taking mental note that Steven broke the kiss literally moments before he himself would've. It's not surprising that they're in sync like that, but it is reassuring. He presses a final, brief kiss to Steven's lips before getting out of his lap and returning to his own seat, hiding a smile. He thinks this might just be the best day of his life so far. The happiest he's ever been. Which makes him feel a modicum of guilt over Layla again. But he can't let that spoil this.]
... I'm not sure I've ever seen you smile like that.
[Steven can't help but note it because he can't-- stop from looking at Marc, even if he's trying to keep it hidden away. He's smiling like a right idiot anyway. If it could happen in real life, he's rather sure he would have little hearts floating above his head right now, with how absolutely brilliant he feels.
[Marc had tried to hide his ridiculous smile, though Steven's reaction makes him question why. Old habits, or something?]
Yeah? Well, it's all your fault, you know. [And then quieter:] I like it, too. [Not his actual smile. He doesn't like the way he looks when he smiles. But being happy enough to smile? Oh, yeah. He likes that.]

Right then, I suppose I can take the blame for that. I'll have to keep it up as well, yeah?
[Because maybe Marc doesn't like to see himself smiling, but Steven happens to love it.]
