I smacked him in the arm and he cracked a laugh that I caught because his laugh is a bit like that. He shook his head a tiny bit. “You’re good at everything you do.” He gave me a slither of a smile. “It’s annoying, a bit.” “Hey.” I pursed my lips together. “Thank you. For this.” He gave me a half smile then slipped his hand behind my head— which I remember thinking at the time, hey, you don’t normally do that. His eyes flickered from my eyes to my mouth, unable to decide where to land. Eyes, eventually. “I said I would.”
i love a man that keeps his promises
