She understood what he was saying because Bruce had snuck up on her too. There was so much about him that drew her in and, even without the Other Guy, he was unlike anyone she had ever met. He shared traits with people she knew but he was still so different. It was more than being scary smart too as he was brave, patient, loyal and a dry wit that no one could match. Plus he wasn't that bad to look at. At all.
Sensing his unease, she shifted to drop her feet on his lap just like she normally would do, initiating an easy sort of contact that wasn't too much but she hoped just enough. It was strange then because it was sort of like being asked out and yet not. She also knew he wouldn't ask for a commitment but she knew it would be somewhat exclusive too as she couldn't imagine him (or the Other Guy) liking the idea of someone else touching her.
Wetting her lips, she continued to watch him before having to ask. "Do you think you'll never be able to kiss or hug...or have sex?"
