Had he said love?
He'd said love.
But that he loved things about her. Which was different and distinct from that other thing in many important ways.
"Well," he said, "you're very… lovable. You're cheerful and funny and sweet. I already said optimistic. And beautiful. Lots of… traits. Good traits, for a person to enjoy. As well as you. I hope you enjoy being yourself. As much as I enjoy you being yourself." That had become an absolute clusterfuck of affection. She seemed not to mind when he stumbled over himself conversationally, so he tried not to hate himself for it.
His instinct was to say yes, but he thought he ought to give it more thought than that. "I don't know if you can sleep in water," he admitted. "I want you to stay, but also do not want you to drown. Which is true most of the time. But you can always sleep in the guest room, if this isn't safe." He didn't want to send her home. He wanted to wake up and make her breakfast. Or take her out for coffee. Or wake her up with kisses. There were a lot of things he wanted, and most of them were suspiciously domestic.
