It didn't seem as though Daphne was about to break away or, worse, slap him, so Nikolas couldn't see the harm in keeping things moving along. They were in public, for Merlin's sake, he knew nothing was going to progress too far, which made him perhaps a bit braver than he might have been if this were the hotel. Out here, it didn't matter whether either of them wanted to take this any further - they couldn't do much more than this where they were, which made it safe to continue, he reasoned.
The hand that wasn't resting on her cheek moved to the small of her back, pulling her closer almost imperceptibly. He rather liked the feeling of her lips against his, come to think of it. Nikolas wasn't sure how he had assumed it might be to kiss Daphne, but he wasn't regretting it. After some time had passed, he didn't think it was very long, he felt her stumble slightly, probably from her shoes and his moving her closer.
Nikolas broke away, not abruptly, but to make sure that she wasn't about to trip. "Someone should have worn different shoes," he teased, his hands settling near her hips.
