I think asking would be fair.

Maybe not this week?

[hardwearing]

Definitely not this week.

I just hope it doesn't affect his decision to move in or not.

[leaderboards]

I hope so too.

If he does accept some company and it comes up, I'll let you know.

[hardwearing]

Thanks.

Maybe we could have him over for dinner, like as a warm up to seeing if he wants to stay?

[leaderboards]

That's a good idea. Even if he doesn't move in, it would be nice if he wanted to spend some downtime there with us anyway.

[hardwearing]

...it's going to be hard not reaching for you.

[leaderboards]

I know. But it will just be for a while and only around Maine anyway.

It'll make it even better when we do touch won't it?

[hardwearing]

Yeah, you're right.

You know, I never thought I'd be okay with anyone in my head again.

[leaderboards]

I know. But my feelings aren't so bad, are they?

[hardwearing]

I like them. Better than mine.

[leaderboards]

Hey, I like your feelings.

[hardwearing]

Really? I avoided touching people like it'd give them the plague when I first got here so they wouldn't have to deal with... all of this.

[leaderboards]

It's really not that bad. Not for me at least. And I like feeling like I can help you. You deserve some tranquility now and then.

[hardwearing]

I think I feel better things when I'm with you, anyway.

[leaderboards]

I can't tell if that's sappy or flirting.

[hardwearing]

Sappy. I'm a terrible flirt.

[leaderboards]

Oh I know. Why do you think I was confused?

[hardwearing]

Accidental flirting maybe?

[leaderboards]

Accidental flirting does sound like something you would do.

[hardwearing]

Do I get points for it anyway?

[leaderboards]

Depends on what you're trying to collect points for.

[hardwearing]

That's a good question, actually. What can I redeem them for?

[leaderboards]

Tell me what you want and I'll tell you if you're there yet.

[hardwearing]

Um...

[ There's a little pause, while he's busy blushing. ]

A backrub?

[leaderboards]

Is that all? You definitely have enough points for that.
