James nodded and patted the bed quite close to him. "Just a simple hug. Something you'd give a loved one when happy to see them. It's a nice way to greet someone in the morning, don't you think? Plus I'm sure your somewhat thirsty this morning."<br/><br/>He sat in a very non-threatening manner, hoping to use more charm and words to persuade her this morning rather than the pain and humiliation of yesterday. He'd make sure she stayed quite close to him after the hug, as he had some plans for how to properly serve breakfast today.<br/><br/>There was something he had to put a stop too, a bit of a setback from yesterday evening. "I'm tempted to already hold it back from you though Katie. I thought we had a talk last night about the proper way to address me. Did you forget about that already? I'd have to take all this food and eat it right here in front of you...offering you none at all."
