"That's probably what makes it so hard for me to say."
He could say he loved cigarettes or good wine or those chocolate bars with
the caramel and crispies. He could say it because he liked those things,
and many others, It was simple to use a very human phrase that, when used,
does't actually mean Love.
But to say it to Aziraphale...that was hard. It was hard because it was
real. Really real. He wanted to say it so much.
So he kissed the angel tenderly and whispered against his lips.
"I can express no kinder sign of.L... than this kind kiss," he said. He
left out the love bit. Shakespeare had always been a man he was fond of.
Such a way with words. Crowley didnt consider it stealing because,
after all, he had given the bard the idea.
