She frowned at his wince, and though she couldn't sense pain exactly from the young man, there was something about it. Something that felt played... for her professional benefit perhaps. Or perhaps it was a serious injury, perhaps she ought to have scanned him more in-depth--
Her eyes widened when one palm pressed her hand against his, and his arm around her waist. Warmth radiated down her, like sunshine. Wholesome, pleasant. She could just melt into it if she wasn't careful, in control. He startled a huffed, low laugh past her lips, the other arm looping around his neck in retailiation with a slight, sly grin.
Gone was the professional; in its' place, a woman who rarely saw the light of day, buried by rules, regulations, and strict policies. Somehow, some way he was charming her out of her shell; it was a bit of a heady thrill, being seen, being wanted. Even though she was at fault somehow... he still wanted to have her around.
"Good," she murmured softly, leaning in to murmur close to his ear. "Because I'd hate to examine you again so soon after this..." she lightly feathered a kiss against his jaw, then once more against his lips. When she'd part, her voice was low. "But, you have a point..." though there was no longer any smile on her lips, amber eyes glittered with a teasing light. "We should check the ship eventually."
However, she wasn't moving, but leaving the slimmest space between them, allowing him to move away if he wanted to.
