"I..." He forgot how to breathe, and his eyes went impossibly large at Sam's words, and he opened and closed his mouth several times. He... had no idea what to say to that. Because he hadn't been expecting it, and it made him so happy, but at the same time, hearing it returned to him, made him feel terrified. Because he knew his feelings were strong for Sam, and the thought that if he messed up? Like he'd been doing after every turn lately? It could ruin everything, and he did love Sam an impossible amount. "...wow, I wasn't expecting to hear that from you." But he's smiling, widely finally, as he lets it finally sink into his head, because there was only one response he could give Sam, if he was completely honest to them both. "And I love you, Sam. So much that it's really kinda crazy."
Sam lets out a nervous but delighted laugh. "I know, this is kind of random. It would have been better if I'd waited until I could tell you in person. I just really wanted you to know. I didn't want you to go one more second without knowing how much I care about you." Sam can't stop smiling at Finn's words. "I know. It's crazy and scary. But I wouldn't give it up for anything. I just feel alive when I'm with you, and that's worth everything to me." Sam feels tingly and light, and his face is starting to hurt from smiling so much. "I've got to get off in a minute. But it's seriously so good to hear your voice, Finn."
"I told you online first, at least you told me over the phone," Finn let out a small laugh, his voice still caught, and now he knew he wouldn't lose his smile, probably all week. Because... wow. He smiled slightly, trying to find his voice again, "...You you mean everything to me, Sam. Just so you know. I know we're still finding ourselves again, after fighting and everything, and then all... this... but you do." He made a face at himself, because wow dude, can you sound any sappier? "I'm... really happy about hearing from you, too."
"I think we're good right now," Sam says softly. "Really good. I can't wait to come back and show you just how much I love you." Sam makes himself stop there, because he'll be on the phone all night if he starts thinking about seeing Finn. "All right, I've gotta go. Hang in there just a few more days, okay?"
He grinned, and choked back a laugh at Sam's words, "We'll have to try that sometime when you get back. Dirty talk over the phone. And I'm not even kidding, because if you didn't have to go right now, I'd be tempted to tell you how much I love you, too." Okay, he was only slightly kidding, but his cheeks were a soft red at the idea of seeing him now in a couple days, because it was all totally different now. Amazing now, even.
"We definitely have to try that." Sam bites his lip and laughs, flushing. He imagines Finn probably looks the same. He's definitely going to need a moment in the shower tonight. "Bye, Finn. Take care, okay? I'll be thinking of you."
