Jacob couldn't deny the fact that he liked this. Maybe he liked it too much and he was setting himself up again. He couldn't pull himself away though. "Were you jealous?" he asked, really wanting the answer to that. He had accused her of it but there was a part of him that really wasn't sure. "Why?" That was an even bigger question.
He turned his head towards her small hand and kissed her fingers before looking back at her. He wasn't quite as rash as he used to be. Before he would have taken advantage of the situation already but now he had some patience, enough to work out what they needed to, and figure out where they stood. This felt a lot like old times, yet there was a difference in what they were doing right now It wasn't the usual flirting, tempting the urges. It was more than that.
