Callum stopped abruptly when she asked him why - why wouldn't he, should be the question?
"Because you're beautiful," he said honestly. He knew where Antony got his fondness of women, this one was quite pretty, but he would not have usually blurted something like that out immediately. Still, if Callum were to continue being Callum then... "I am sort of known for painting beautiful women. I find the goodness and richness of every female and put it on the canvas for either all or a slect few to see. Just.. because you are beautiful I feel you should be down on paper, immortalised, noted, if you will..."
Callum ended his little explanation with a bright smile as if he hadn't just said those sentences with affection.
