As he had expected, and hoped for, Katharine was more than happy to accept his embrace.  Jacob felt the entirety of her back press closely against his torso and delighted in her warmth, which did wonders to ease some of the lingering tension in his back and shoulders.  He had noticed the very faint shade of red that adorned her skin from his touch and couldn't help but smile from it.  Fortunately the feeling of her nude body against his was common enough that he didn't have to worry too much about himself getting too excited, which was a good thing considering how her rear was pressed against his groin.  Even if he did get turned on from his daughter's touch, it might not make for an awkward situation but he didn't want to give her the wrong impression all the same.<br/><br/>Jacob's fingers caressed lightly over her arm and abdomen as she asked about dinner.  As much as he wanted to help prepare dinner, he was not quite ready to end the loving embrace.  "She was a little too distracted to pass on instructions.  How much time is left on the roast?  We might not have enough time for potatoes, but rice and other veggies shouldn't take long to prepare."  The light kiss on his chin caused his smile to become even broader and took advantage of her turned head by placing another soft kiss of his own gently upon her lips.  This time the tip of his tongue parted from his lips to lightly caress Katharine's.  After the kiss came to its natural conclusion he looked over to Dan then back to his daughter.  "So what sort of 'stuff' were you referring to when I shown up?  I hope I didn't intrude on anything."
