He looked at her, watching the way her mouth moved when she spoke english. It fascinated. It was like a caressing conviction. He forced himself to listen to her question. "Beautiful." he said, putting on a show of looking dazed by her, the classic cliche- marred a bit by his arched eyebrow at the end.
"For," Eirian corrected. As Thiago's personal English professor, she'd have to correct him... "I know, but that is half the fun, is it not?" Smiling warmly, she giggled slightly - it was a reflex from being touched on either side of her hips. She was just too ticklish! - and tried not to squirm as Thiago picked her up. It would be bad if she fell.. Because the pumpkin was pretty tall, and she'd have to run back to Hayley for another band-aid. Yet another chance to correct Thi came up, but she couldn't... His mistakes were too endearing. Besides, what did she know? "You are... corny. But I love it. How have your classes been, Querido?"
