"You don't know the half of it." She smirked and turned back in her seat, hands demonstrably tugging her jeans down a bit in the thigh to keep her from getting too hot before they got around to being able to do something about it.
If he was hoping to wipe that smile off her face those were the exact wrong words to use to do it, her mind was already running with ideas and the most sincere hope that he hadn't suddenly picked up mind reading with his other wintery powers. She considered letting one hand take a grip on his thigh but given his driving was questionable at the best of times she kept them in her own lap.
She tipped her head back to rest against the mismatched seat of the Beetle and thought it over. "Remember when we fought that tree monster at the Walmart?" She nodded to herself. "I toyed with the idea then, but you had just gone through everything with Susan and the last thing you needed was anything romantic, you needed a friend, so that's what I was."
She folded her arms under her chest and it might have been a trick of the weak light or maybe, just maybe, there was a raised peak casting a shadow from the center of either breast. Then again maybe it was just cold in the car. "But it got more serious when we were in the Deeps, and Lara cut loose with those White Court powers. Even as fucked up as I was over what her father had done I was hotter than I'd ever been and you were the only thing I was thinking about. So, good thing everything happened the way it did I guess. Saved me the embarrassment of doing unspeakable things to you." At least then.
