When she kissed him Nate allowed a smile to appear briefly. It's not like he could be mad at the moment, so here he was, stuck between being happy for her and... ugh. "I know that," he said, "It's a little hard to keep all your babbling out." Of course he was just teasing, but it was true.
Glancing down at their hands as she did he sighed, silently amused at how she was toying with his hand. Who knows why, but it was oddly cute. Nodding as she spoke he smiled a little, this situation still sucked but at least while he was with her the mood could be lifted slightly? "I'll keep you to that promise." Sigh. It'll be fine. It'll be fine... leaning in he pressed a soft kiss to her forehead. It was tempting to just stop talking about this now and help her sleep but eh.
"That's good... I'll be stealing some trips to myself, just so you know," it might be selfish but hey. Other people were going to want to see her, he knew this and was going to plan around it. "Too bad I have to go to college."
