Ed did want to know. He just didn't want to to feel like she had to explain. If she wasn't ready, she wasn't ready and just because she'd said she was in the heat of a moment didn't mean he was going to hold her to it when she'd changed her mind.
"Anytime you want," he agreed easily, "just say when."
He smiled, leaning in to meet her kiss, letting his lips linger until she spoke again.
"Oh, I definitely do want," he grinned, his eyes twinkling mischievously. Like he was ever going to turn down that sort of thing with his girlfriend.
