Her smile brightened, warm but still gentle on her face as she tilted her head down so he could kiss her forehead a second time.

"I would like that very much."

She moved to the couch, smoothing her skirts and settling in. If he would let her, she'd return her head to his shoulder just so she could hold him again.

"What would you like to talk about? If you say 'the weather,' I will leave."

The smile was still on her face, as she was more teasing than serious in that regard.
