Forcing himself to breathe, Marcus was beginning to worry that he'd just made a huge mistake, until Roger smiled. Returning it with a small, shy one of his own, he was surprised to find that his hands were trembling slightly, and that he had no idea what to do with them now that the other man was so close. Strangely enough, he didn't mind the intrusion of his personal space, but he figured that was probably due to who was doing the encroaching more than anything else.
Roger's hands were two warm, sold points of contact again him, and Marcus focused on them at the question, not entirely sure he wasn't dreaming. Not trusting his voice to answer verbally, he managed to give a small nod of his head, never looking away from Roger's face as he did so.
