Steph laughed a little. “yea, okay. You might be right about that. We might be dating. I hadn’t thought about it really.”She said because she really hadn’t considered they were dating. She’d been happy to not give a name to it. “Johnny, that was the opera!Going to the opera requires dressing up. You can’t just go in jeans. I’d never hear the end of it.”She whined a little even if she was laughing. Shifting to lean back to look at him seriously, studying him. Trying to understand what the other was telling her, before wincing. Looking away. “I’m sorry…I didn’t…I didn’t think. I was upset and thinking, and told tony, which in hindsight should have been nat or bruce, tony was working, he wasn’t paying attention and….I’m sorry.”She said feeling guilty leaning in to kiss him lightly. “ Let’s go inside.”She said stealing another kiss, relaxing into him again. Of the two of them, she was generally the one to resort to sex to get her feelings across, or to comfort him or her. Well, maybe no sex right now, but she wanted to curl up with him and comfort them both. “Come on sparkles, let’s go crawl in bed, and cuddle and maybe making out like a couple teenagers.”She said snickering a little as she stepped away, pulling him inside after her, holding onto his hand, simply needing to keep touching him.
