It might be a little fake. I have a grand total of three friends and one is my sister. (Now wait a second....) Sorry. Four including you.
(Kieren angles his head, smiling faintly at the fact that Gansey's hand was still covering his face. Stop that, you. He reaches out to gently pry Gansey's hand down and away from his face.)
I'm very flattered that you don't think particularly hard about the state of my heart rate, yes. I do so appreciate it when people treat me regularly.
That's exactly how many I've got, including my sister, and you can see how well the ones who aren't you can go, so as far as I'm concerned, you're doing brilliantly.
[gansey seems to have no intention of uncovering his face until kieren pries his hand away. it doesn't take that much doing, but gansey still has an embarrassed blush high up on his cheeks. he tries very hard to be mindful of kieren's condition, but it's also become increasingly easy for gansey to forget that kieren's not a normal living person with very cold hands.]
Good, even if I still feel like a bit of an ass. I'll try not to make any more meal dates.
