Stella smiled up at Claude as he came over to help her undress, relaxing as the restraining tightness of the dress slowly started to disappear. She could feel his eyes roaming over her, not being able to help as a smile tugged at the corner of her lips. Only halfway through did she realize that it might be uncomfortable for him to stand while she was sitting, but it was too late to try and stand now.<br/><br/>As Claude loosened the last of the laces, Stella stretched a bit and sighed happily. "Thank you for the help," she said quietly. As he nuzzled her head and told her how he truly felt, Stella looked up at him in surprise, her eyes wide as saucers. Watching Claude kneel down in front of her and place his hands over her own, Stella tilted her head in confusion as he started to ask her a question, it seemed really important, it was making him nervous but he was sure in what he was asking. "What is it Claude?" she asked softly, leaning forward to place a kiss on his forehead before she looked at him expectantly waiting for his question.
