[ . . . She'd meant to make a joke, taking another playful swipe at him just for the fun of it, but his hand curling around hers suddenly silences her.
Which is ridiculous, really. His hands have been just about everywhere else they could be on her body, they've already crossed about every line they could have done - and here she is, warmly stunned into silence because he's holding her hand for the first time. But that's just it, isn't it? For all the lines they've crossed, has Oberon ever actually reached out to her like this?
So she doesn't answer right away. She turns her hand in his so their palms press together and she can lace their fingers together. Her hands really are a whole lot smaller than his, huh... ]
That doesn't mean I'll be giving you a free pass on your performance. [ More teasing - but her voice is surprisingly gentle. ] But that comes with being a fan of the real thing. I'm picky.
