admittedly, he’d been off in a world of his own, so her question snaps him out of his little daydream. ‘ ...hm? ’ he tunes back in to the conversation, catches on to what her question was, and offers her up a smile before he opens his mouth to answer. it's at this point that he realises his feet are resting in her lap, done unconsciously where he'd been reclining on the sofa, with him at one end and her at the other. they haven't been dating long, certainly not long enough for him to just put himself in her personal space like this. sure, she knows that he's physically affectionate, but this is his feet and some people are weird about that. ‘ ...i, uh — ’ he's quick to push himself up into a sitting position, moving his feet out of her lap. ‘ sorry. spaced out there. just for a sec...sorry. ’ well, this is certainly the next step in their relationship.

her suggestion for an afternoon out had been a christmas market, of all places. not that felix has anything against christmas markets, it’s just that he finds the concept as a whole to be one that’s steeped in romanticism. which, again, is fine. he doesn’t have anything against that either. but they’ve only been known each other for a couple of months and though his intentions had been to ask her out on a date at some point in the near future, he hadn’t quite gotten around to it yet.

perhaps this is her taking the initiative and spurring him into action, which is something else to add to the list of things that he’s absolutely fine with today, apparently ( AND THERE’S ABSOLUTELY SOMETHING MORE BEHIND THAT WHICH HE WILL NOT CONFRONT RIGHT NOW ).

he’d taken the drive up to cambridge to meet her, and the day has been pretty uneventful so far. there are a couple of things that he’s seen that he wouldn’t mind buying as gifts for people he knows, even some things that he wouldn’t turn his nose up about buying for himself. but as a whole, there’s been nothing to even suggest that the afternoon was going to have a more romantic turn.

it’s not until they’re waiting for gourmet hot chocolates when he catches her shivering. it’s not obvious, but he’s been finding it more and more difficult to keep his eyes off of her whenever they’ve been spending time together, so he manages not to miss it. and without giving her the opportunity to insist that she’s not cold, he slips off his jacket and wraps it around her shoulders. his hands, tactile, always craving touch, slide down to her biceps, hoping to impart some further warmth into her skin.
