I love them. [He leans over, kissing Polnareff on the lips this time.] Thank you.
[Will that happen after every present? Maybe. Somehow, Bruno doesn't anticipate any complaints. Since his makeup bag is in the bathroom, Bruno places everything back in the box for now and sets it aside to consider his options. He'd be lying if he said he wasn't actually really curious what the last present is, but all he does is glance at it as he pulls the third to himself.]
[Just as with before, Bruno is careful in unwrapping. Pulling all of the books out, he chooses one to look at the summary on the back while the rest remain in his lap.]
You know you're reading some of these with me, right? [he asks, glancing at Polnareff briefly before turning his attention back to the book. Bruno really doesn't need Polnareff to read to him, but he likes the steady rhythm of Polnareff's voice as he reads with the occasional dramatic flourishes. Sometimes he nods off before Polnareff is done reading, but he thinks he sleeps just a little better on the nights he reads to Bruno.]
