"Hmm?" she asked in a wordless question, looking up from doodling on the cold, foggy window with her finger.

"That all you wanted to tell me?" Jane smiled, working up enough courage to lean against Riley and rest her head on his shoulder

Riley laughed softly, feeling his heart beat a little faster. "Mostly. I don't think I could put anything else I want to say into words, really."

Jane smiled. "Well, I like this too. It's nice." She took another sip from her mug, closing her eyes. After a minute, she commented in a murmur, "You're surprisingly warm, Riley."

"Really? I still feel kind of chilly from my swim," Riley replied, shifting slightly. "Guess you feel my warmth more than I do."

"You're still cold?" Jane put down her hot chocolate and wrapped her arms around Riley, pulling him closer to her side. "There. Is that better?"

Riley closed his eyes for a moment, his heart pounding. She was warm, and vaguely smelled like chocolate and vanilla. "Yeah... better," he sighed.

She smiled, shutting her eyes. "Good." It was hard for her to believe that this was actually happening. In fact, Riley's confession seemed almost like a dream. Like it didn't actually happen and she was just imagining it.

"You know," Riley said after a moment, "It's kind of weird to think that we were around here when we met the first time."

"Yeah, that is a little strange, I guess... But to think if you'd never asked what book I was reading that day... Things would've been a lot different. I wouldn't have even known you existed."

"I guess we were meant to meet, then. Normally I wouldn't have been so nosy," Riley said, a small smile playing on his lips. "Well, at least with a stranger."

Jane looked up at him, eyeing his lips for a moment before smiling herself. "I guess so," she agreed. "What made you talk to me in the first place?"

"I don't really know," he mused. "Afterwards I was mostly embarrassed about probably looking stupid in front of a pretty girl, though."

Jane blushed, hitting him lightly. "Quit trying to flirt with me. It doesn't work." She sighed. "And anyway, you weren't stupid."

Riley pouted, trying not to let her see him smile. "Are you sure? At least some of my flirting got us to this point. But maybe I was stupid, maybe I wasn't. The memory is vague because I tried to block out whatever I said that day."

"You weren't, I promise." Jane paused. "Well, I mean, you're still an idiot, but that's different."

Riley turned himself around so he was facing her, still smiling. "Yeah. I know what you mean. I do get into... sticky situations."

"Probably more than is good for you," Jane told him. "You may be an idiot, but..." she sighed, "You're my idiot now."

"That's a good thing, right?" Riley asked, pressing his forehead against hers for a moment.
