"It's good enough," she assured him with a small, shy smile, ducking her head again when he looked back up at her. When he spoke again to get her attention, Rikki looked up, questioning expression on her face.

The way his smile changed made her stomach flutter furiously, but what he said next made it flutter even more furiously. It took a moment for her to fully process it in a way that she was able to feel certain that she'd heard him right and she wouldn't humiliate herself. Giving herself that moment to process, what came out first was a surprised laugh. Not an amused one, one that just illustrated that she had been taken off her guard and, if one knew her well enough to get into her head, that she couldn't believe her luck.

Her stomach tumbled and knotted and settled, over and over, so quickly she couldn't decide if she felt sick or not, but she ended on a bright smile, nodding her head when words failed her briefly. "Yeah," she finally managed. "Yeah, of course. Christ, it took you long enough," she laughed again, reaching for her to draw him in so that she could kiss him. It wasn't rough or frantic; it was chaste but lingering, giving Ben a chance to decide if he wanted to leave it at that for the moment or if he wanted to deepen it.

He smiled at her laugh and for a moment looked worried, but only a moment. The laugh was good, and he settled a bit, learning on his hand there, watching her. His belly in knots and wriggling like the Horrors were just as worried or excited as he was. It was, in fact, just his belly doing it though, and not the horrors.

Though at the kiss he did feel his skin crawl, in a good way, as the horrors seemed to cheer for him as well.

He left it at a chaste kiss for a moment, smiling on her lips and drawing back just a bit to say "Had to make sure the moment was right." He said at a bit of a lie. He'd just been too nervous to ask until now. He said that and leaned in to steal another small chaste kiss, nudging it a bit more. His heart beating fast enough that it felt like it had stopped on him.

Rikki shook her head and huffed another soft laugh, pressing her forehead against his when they paused so that she could catch her breath again. "You've had a million moments that were right, you know," she reminded him playfully.

But then he was kissing her again and Rikki shifted to be closer to him, melting into it. She'd been wanting to kiss him for an age, by now. There was something about Ben that had hooked her the moment she'd met him, really, and while he was a perfectly attractive guy, that hadn't been what it was.

She reckoned that his new lease on life had done it, really. He always seemed to be experiencing everything either for the first time or as though he might never get another chance and there was something about the way he put that level of passion into everything he did that she couldn't help being drawn to like a moth to a flame.

Rikki deepened the kiss a little for a moment but then she pulled back, blushing. She'd never really been the sort for public displays of affection and, even though there wasn't really anyone else around, she still felt shy about it. "I've been wanting to do that for months, mate," she confessed in a soft, almost whisper, a small smile on her face as she looked back at him.
