Which was really unfair as he was the observer, the deductive mind of their group not her. But for the moment he would just wait for it.

But at her dropping her gaze, her expression falling he had to shake his head. No, that was not why she should be disappointed really, and when he saw that smile he shook his head, smiling back. His disbelief was in the fact that she was asking him and had been planning to. It was a shock, really to him, that was all.

So he shook his head more and slid his hand back up to cup her cheek, "Helen, I was merely, shocked, that you would be planning so far in advance in asking me is all. I have nothing planned for tomorrow," and it wouldn't matter either, a chance to be with Helen was more important than anything else, even if he secretly was hoping no one else would see his affection or more for her in his eyes, on his face. "I will happily ta - escort you, myself."

He frowned slightly at the stumble but wiped it off of his face. One sounded as if they were a couple the other was more appropriate for what they were, friends. He had to remember that. Though he had said it with complete honesty, hiding his fear.
