Having her right there, reading over his shoulder, and so very much a process was exciting. It was different than when he worked with Violet. There he usually just took notes, it was more of a hang out. This was far more intimate for him.
They weren't dating, and so when she burst into laughter, he wasn't surprised, but he wasn't hurt either. He had hoped it would be the grand gesture that maybe pushed them into that finale step, the relationship. "All of those things too," he agreed with her, giving her that dopey soft smile. "I love everything about you," he said in a soft voice. "I was thinking, we should see what's between us." The words had popped out of his mouth before his filter had time to stop them. He was almost certain he was going to spook her.
