[ It's a little embarrassing getting pulled in so snug against him. The line of their lips tightens briefly, and for the first time, they actually feel the sensation of their face getting warmer, both at being so close and at... how much stronger he seems now. Usually he seems so fragile and light - the roles definitely feel reversed, in the moment. It's strange, the faint heat in their face and the little skip in their chest - different from the symptoms of affection they feel in their normal body. But still unmistakable signs of their feelings.
Inwardly, they try to compartmentalize the alien sensations they're going through and be in the moment, even if their thoughts do wander in the direction of if this is how he feels, physically, when he's around them. They're so light now; their head comes to rest fully on his shoulder, slowly and shyly. It's half because they want to obscure what they assume must be growing color in their face, and half out of simple desire to feel him, and be close. While they have trouble initiating, capitalizing on a chance to get closer is getting easier. ]
I can't believe you did this with me before, when I was that cold...
[ They muse with a little wistful sigh, mostly thoughtlessly, to fill the silence and distract from their own nerves. ]

...Is it better like this?
