In half sleep he was wondering what she thought of his toe touching hers. He gently shifted a bit in his sitting position and his toe was pressing more against her little toe. It was as if his toe was trying to get under her's.  He was unaware and yet very aware of these mild touches. Most of the passengers have fallen asleep and the empty trays have been collected by the stewardesses. The main lights have been turned down now and he felt relieved as the lights were too harsh even on his closed eyes. He sighed with relief and his hand slipped from the hand-rest and rested on her left thigh near to the hand-rest. He was enjoying the presence of this nice lady next to him. It was much better than having a talkative guy trying to make business connections. His toe was still touching hers in an innocent way.
