*Faye isn't really quite sure if this is reality either, but she is glad when he holds her waist that way. He hasn't pushed her back or yelled at her or moved in disgust, and she feels a rush of warm gratitude move through her for that.

So Faye continues, her kiss heavy as she tries to convey as much as she can through it - her anger at him, her relief at his return, her concern for him, her delight that he is finally home. He can fight her off if he wants to, but for now she just keeps going because it feels good, and she has finally taken the action she has wanted to take for so long*
