If only Jane knew how much Jack was really under her spell. She had a refreshing manner of being compared to the women he met. He didn't want to leave and only thought of when they could see each other again. Yet she wouldn't know it sitting there with him as he kept it all locked up inside until he could think of the right way to bring it up without showing all his cards. No one liked someone over eager. There was a fine line it could cross over into something creepy.
He could see the confusion on her face at his question which brought a light red tint to his cheeks. As cool as he tried playing, it seemed he couldn't stop making an idiot of himself. Not that Jane appeared put off which in itself was the reason he was so taken with her. "No, thank you. That was just enough with the sugar from dessert to keep me up a little longer. Any more and I won't sleep tonight," he said through the sheepish grin he sported and stood with her.
Jack headed in the direction she indicated. His cheeks felt funny. He wasn't sure if it was from blushing or all the smiling he was doing with Jane. Standing in front of the mirror over the bathroom sink, he wondered if he shouldn't have shaved clean. He hated the razor burn but it might have shown he was putting forth more effort. How would she know he didn't usually dress this way after only just meeting?
Leaving the lavatory freshened up, he swaggered to the kitchen with his head tilted down and eyes peering up in an almost timid expression. "Should I go now?"
