Re: GU: Destin and Steph
He could - he could hear it when the beat of her heart changed but wisely said nothing about that. It'd probably be an even bigger faux pas than saying she smelled good. "Well, I can't-," he started, doing a little embarrassed shuffle from foot to foot. "I can't really say that you look nice." But yes, he could smell her - something sweet that made him think of fresh spring flowers and long days on the summer beach - and hear her - rasp of cotton and slow breathing, the little drum of her heart.
And yeah, maybe he had no mad skills or any game, but he did try and he wasn't like the senior passed out in the hallway - that was something right? He grinned a little at the nudge of her arm, something (not the phone) telling him that she was the type to touch a lot and he wondered, briefly, about holding his arm out for her before he did. Maybe Destin had no game, but he could make her smile and that was worth everything he didn't have. "I - there might be a short walk involved, if that's all right with you." A short walk and a long distance, if she was up for it. Harry Potter could twirl his wand; he had better plans.
