Her voice is so gentle and her hand so insistent that he has to open his eyes, just to see her.
She's so beautiful.
And it isn't quite fair that this feels so good, really, because he's certain that she isn't nearly as close to falling utterly apart as he is, but then her hand is wamr against his skin and her eyes are laughing and loving. It doesn't even matter that they're grey now, because green or grey they're Lucy's eyes and that makes them beautiful, no matter what, especially when she's looking at him like that.
Maybe it's that which undoes him in the end; the look in her eyes and the warmth of her and the way she's touching him and how much he loves her. He doesn't quite know what exactly it might be, or if it's just everything all at once but he gasps and his shoulders shake and it's like everything is falling around him, but instead of falling apart it's all falling together.
