When he smiled, she relaxed a bit out of relief. It was better than noting, right? And, honestly, things had gone a lot better than she'd expected they would. Her nose wrinkled just a tiny bit at his comment before she scrunched her face. "That babbling you happen to adore, right?"
She spread her fingers as she cocked her head to the side, actually taking note of how much smaller than him she happened to be. Oh, she already knew it. It was obvious. But just how much? Yeah, she'd never paid attention to that. Huh. Smiling at that, she closed her eyes and moved in a little closer, glad that the previous bit of awkwardness had faded at least a little bit. "I love you," she said quietly as she looked back up at him, a small smile still on her face. "So, no worries."
Sitting up just a little, she grinned at him. "That so, huh?" She asked with an amused expression. "Do I get any say in that matter?" A pause as she made a face. "Yeah. Damn that whole higher education thing, right?"
