There was no concealing his affection for her. Those that knew him, few as they might be, would spot it immediately. He'd half-turned towards her in his stool. A glint fashioned itself in the pale hazel of his eyes as they fixed upon her own, soaking up the little secrets glittering within. A woman's heart was a thick nest of secrets. There'd be no attempt to discern them all.
But the ones she'd shared with him, he'd kept. They existed between them in a more potent tie than the meager one his hand could reside. Nomatter his strength, or the tightening grasp of his long fingers on the softness of her side, it was always the less tactile of means that wound people together.
"Knock on my door when you're able."
