Pepper turns her head toward him with a frown that's not so much displeased as it is sad. She wants to protest, to champion the fact that there's someone out there for him too, but words get robbed from her when she realizes the twinge in her gut at the thought is some kind of proprietary jealousy. She scolds herself. Just because they slept in the same bed last night and woke up cuddling while in this fake relationship doesn't mean he is hers, or anything so stupid as that. Why would he even want her?
They really are close. Her lids droop a little as her gaze dips from his eyes down to his mouth, startling even herself. Blood rushes to her cheeks and she tears her eyes away, turning her head as she focuses on drying the pan. "Y-es," she starts a little shakily at first, wetting her dry lips with her tongue. "A movie would be nice, actually. Unless it's something about a lot of things blowing up. I think we get enough of that at work."
