She grinned as he talked about the Bertie Botts, and shook her head slightly. "No thank you. I think I'll let you have them to yourself, stick to my chocolate and fruit." Which, as usual, she had hidden in her bag. As if she ever actually got hungry enough to need it.

She blinked as he moved in response to her confession, and then looked up at him again. Uncurling herself, if only to not feel quite so tiny when confronted with his height, as if she could ever not feel tiny when compared to him, she simply watched him, staying in her chair for the time being. But when he suddenly looked down at his hand after he finished talking, like he was uncomfortable for once, she couldn't help but go over to him. Curling her hand around his to stop him from playing with the bean, she tilted her head to look at his face. "It's not weird. It kind of makes me feel better, knowing that," she said quietly, "Is that weird?"
Robert looked up as he felt and saw Liz's hand cover his, not realizing that she had actually gotten up while he was speaking. Looking at her he shook his head as she asked the question, "No." He said simply and met her eyes taking a deep breath he prepared himself for what he was about to do. Sure...she liked him a little and he liked her but he wasn't sure if she was really willing to put their friendship on the line....

Moving his hand he entwined his free fingers in hers and looked down at it, "Elizabeth..." He ran his other hand through his hair nervously and cleared his throat. He had never been this nervous in awhile but...what he was about to say could possibly ruin their friendship...hopefully not though. "What...what would you say..." he looked up and smiled slightly, rubbing the back of her hand with a finger. "What would you say if I said...that I wanted to ask you out?" Oh, yes that's a winner why couldn't he just ask her.
