The Reception: Aric, Elizabeth and Open
It took him a second to follow, she knew who his Body was tonight. It was only in thinking back over the last few moments and recalling that he had indeed been talking to a woman - albeit mindlessly - that he caught her meaning. He smiled, not even bothering to hide his amusement. Was she jealous? Surely not. She hadn't the slightest reason to be. "You never had a problem shutting me down, are you implying your senses are less than perfect?"
He dropped his gaze to her mouth, leaning in toward her, and only at the last second shifting to the side to speak quietly in her ear. Truth be told I barely noticed her lass, just using her for cover while watching my target. Then you walked in wearing that dress and I forgot them both."
