The previous inhabitant had left a news paper on the rickety table by the window, so Stella amuses herself by reading that all way through. It's a pleasant surprise to see comics from her childhood still being ran in the newspaper. Although she is aware of Dagger's restlessness, she tunes out it while reading. Only after no more articles catch her attention does she take up where he left off with the channel surfing. She's sitting on the bed cross legged with her back straight when she feels Dagger sit up. A startled noise escapes her when Dagger kisses her and her eyes go wide. This time there is no way that he can blame it on not knowing what he is doing. Her heart beat races as she lightly kisses him back, watching for his reaction.
