[ teresa has noticed he's been distracted in more ways than one.
she's been trying to find the perfect moment to ask. she can just tell he's had a lot on his mind, and she's his girlfriend now (that will never get old); she wants him to know that she's there for him whatever is going on.
her soft smile widens at that wave of his, and she waves back effusively. ] Hi. [ now that she's caught his attention, she tosses the book off to the side and moves over to where he is, her legs now more fully flung on top of his. her arms wind around his neck from the side, but only briefly. she does need to sign to him, after all. she's gotten better. ]
