[ He can’t deny that he likes the way she feels against him. He rests an arm around her waist, and another hand stays caressing her cheek. When they break to talk again…well.
He wonders what they could actually manage. What he could actually manage. ]
I am open to it…however…
[The hand caressing her cheek draws back just a touch. Allowing his fingers to touch her cheek, to get to know how she feels. ]
We don’t have to call it anything right now if you don’t wish it. We can do as you say, see how we feel as we go. I could understand if this is not acceptable to you as well.
[ She leans into his touch, much like a kitty- and draws her hand down to cover his, as she meets his gaze. ]
'tis fine with me, my darling. We don't have to call it anything right away if you don't want it, but I- do want to call you mine beau. Calling you mine mate right now may be a little premature, aye?
[ Her boyfriend. She steals a little kiss and another, purring softly against him as her tail wraps around his side. ]
But I'd like to be with you. As well. You do make me happy.
[Its not meant as an offense. Of course. It’s meant to allow them to grow. But beau is fine, he thinks it’s fine enough to define their relationship at the current point. ]
[ That makes her laugh weakly as she kisses his cheek, and nuzzles him after, affectionate and moves an arm around his waist. ]
Then I suppose I'll just have to make you want for nothing. I'd assumed a beautiful man like yourself would have so many admirers... now I'm surprised that you would choose me at all.
[ She ducks her head, a little bashful. ]
Then again, I'm always surprised mine mates liked me too...
[ Her cheeks grow pink from the words, and she's still- it's still so surprising! She really hasn't been anyone but her clan's matriarch before this. But the forehead bump is welcome, and she pokes her nose against his to nuzzle. ]
... 'tis hard not to be, with people as wonderful as you around.
[ It's so comfortable with him, the way she feels around her mates... ]
I like that about you, though. You focus on you, before you set out on anything else... you're dedicated to what you feel important to you, before anyone else. Your knowledge is so enviable, too. I just know I ended up wanting to know you more before I could resist.

I am happy, but I haven’t. Really ever…
[Really ever been in a relationship. ]

... really? You've never been kissed?
[ WAS SHE HIS FIRST. OH DEAR. GIVE HER A MOMENT. ]

You do not have to give me any extra attention, I promise that to you.
[He puts his forehead against hers. ]
You should not be surprised, in the slightest. You are an incredible woman.

[ He got his knowledge from a few places. His mother, and from gleaning.]
You could always take up gleaning, if you want to expand your horizons.
[Its mostly a joke. ]

Being in a relationship isn't depending on anyone, though. 'tis just sharing your joys and company, like a friend. But kissier!
[ WINK. ]
Once all of this is done, you should come see my children too! They'd love to meet you!

You would want me to meet your children? Are you sure they would like something like that?

... now I'm even more excited to see where we go together. I can't wait, Erenville! We're going to have the best time!
[ Haha. Hahaha. About that... ]
