[ Feeling more than a little guilty about ruining her joke tbh. ]

I love you, you know.

[glassbox]

[ With a huff: ]

I know.

[ A little beat. Then, maybe a bit less petulantly: ]

I love you too.

[notdaredevil]

Are you sure you know?

[ Trying to coax her back into something less upset. He'd kiss her, if he could. But... ]

[glassbox]

Well. [ With a little dwindling petulance: ] It wouldn't hurt t'hear y'say it again.

[notdaredevil]

I love you.

[glassbox]

[ That little pause is her heart skipping a beat. She's still getting used to how readily and honestly he says that to her. ]

Okay, I believe you. [ Another slight pause. ] Guess there wouldn't be much point in askin' you t'help me pick a dress for dinner though, huh.

[notdaredevil]

I can give you an honest opinion on how much fun it will be to take off later...?

[glassbox]

I think y'can find a way t'make it fun no matter what I wear.

[notdaredevil]

All depends on how short your skirt is, darling.

[glassbox]

Yeah? How short y'want it t'be?

[notdaredevil]

About three inches shorter than one of my shirts.

[glassbox]

Dunno what good that'd be. I'd be flashin' jus' about everybody 'cept you.

[notdaredevil]

Oh, right, sorry. I'm far too jealous to let that stand. Save that for after dinner.

[glassbox]

D'you still get jealous? [ Teasingly: ] Now I might have t'wear a real short dress.

[notdaredevil]

You're so busy keeping an eye out for women noticing me that you don't pay any attention to the men who notice you.

[ That's all he has to go on. He'll never see her photos, the outfits at the shoots. He only knows the clothes he gets to feel on her body, and the jump in mens' pulses when she walks by. And what they say about a waste, when they think neither Matt nor Lil can hear. ]

[glassbox]

That's 'cause I don't care about them. The only man I care about that way is you.

[notdaredevil]

I know that. I do.

[glassbox]

Y'better. [ Fondly: ] I know y'know exactly what y'do t'me.

[notdaredevil]

By taste alone, if nothing else.

[glassbox]

Matty. You're a damn scoundrel, y'know that?

[notdaredevil]

I am incorrigible, it's true. Shameless, even.

[glassbox]

Y'better not be where anyone can hear you.

[notdaredevil]

I'll whisper it in your ear, so no one else will know.

[glassbox]

That sure depends on what I do when y'whisper in my ear, don't it.

[notdaredevil]

As long as you don't stick your hand down my pants or cop a feel it should stay secret.
