[Haruhi was quiet for a moment then, unsure how to answer. While giving herself a moment, she also moved even a little bit closer to him, using her free hand to initiate a one-armed hug and resting her head on his arm.]

When I let myself think about things sometimes... I start to wonder. The longer we've been here, the more worried I am that that'll end, rather than my becoming assured that we'll stay. I know I've already left twice, even if I don't remember... What if that happens again? Even if I don't return, will I forget? Because I don't want to forget—

[she takes a breath]

I know that being here has changed the way I've had to see things. Before I was more focused on the future and getting to that point. But now I want to make everything worth it because I never know how long it will last. Like you said to me, enjoy "experiences of all kinds"... That's why even though I wouldn't have agreed to it at home until much further along, once you said it I knew I want to marry you now.

If I ever wake up and you're gone, I'll know how things are. That you're home and with everyone... and I'll be back soon, as well. But for now, I just want to make the most of these experiences that we have in these moments.
