Derek loosens his grip just enough to let Barry turn in his arms, and watches his face as he speaks. The emotion and honesty in Barry's voice makes Derek's throat go a little tight, and he nods. God, Barry really does love him. Not that Derek doubted him, but in this moment he really feels the whole depth and scope of that love and it's nearly enough to make his eyes sting. He's just so grateful, and he returns that love with a ferocity that he hopes Barry can feel to his bones.

"If I had the choice, I think I'd go with you," Derek admits. He has people that he cares for very deeply here, and a life that he's come to enjoy, but he would go with Barry if such a thing were possible. For Barry to have his family back-- for Derek to be a part of that family? He doesn't think that there's anything that he wouldn't do. "I'd love to meet them."

His voice is trembling slightly, eyes shining as he leans in to press their foreheads together. "I don't ever want to be anywhere that isn't where you are."
