There was no need for him to be embarrassed in the first place; she was just happy that he was okay.

There was no time to dwell on it further, because he had managed to work out what she was saying. Good thing too because she would hate for him to think that she was rejecting him AGAIN when she hadn't even in the first place. That had been absolutely terrible and she had hated seeing him so sad. "I would love to." Why wouldn't she? He was amazing.
For several moments Gaston was paralyzed by his roiling emotions. Once the initial shock had worn off, he thought his heart would burst from joy and deep love. He never ceased to be astounded by Rosalyn's kindness, and it touched his heart more than she would ever know. Not many people in his life had been kind to him; she was one of the rare exceptions. A sudden shadow of panic clouded his thoughts. What if it didn't last? What if she pushed him away once she saw just how damaged he really was? Just like every other woman...

He had to take several deep breaths and press a hand to his eyes as he fought to keep his emotions in line. He didn't want to upset her again! "Oh, Rose..." he whispered, but the words caught in his throat. "Thank you." But somehow those words alone seemed inadequate, and he forced himself on. "I promise I will do anything to be worthy of this chance..."

He looked at her, allowing the raw emotion in his eyes to underscore the sincerity of his words, and before he knew what was happening, he'd kissed her hand! Oh no, what had he done? He could hear his father's voice in the back of his mind, reprimanding him for an inappropriate display of affection. He took an automatic step back, his bright blue eyes widening in panic. "Oh my... I'm so sorry! I shouldn't have-! It's just..." His eyes lit up as he smiled. "you have no idea how happy you've made me!"
