Julianna was caught off guard by the sudden way he grabbed her foot. It was an innocent touch, but it was something comfortable and almost intimate in the way he tucked her cold toes against him. “They are not,” she shot back. “They’re...they’re a perfectly normal size!” Though an undeniable closeness had come between them in the previous weeks, she convinced herself that there wasn’t anything more to the contact than what was on the surface. “How are you so warm,” she whispered, mostly to herself as she wiggled her toes where they were trapped beneath his leg. “you’re like a space heater.”
The nanny blinked back at him when he mentioned family obligations and doctor’s appointments. Admittedly, she had forgotten to think of those types of things when he’d originally asked when she would like to go. After brief thought, she shook her head. “No, nothing like that. I don’t have any family around, or any other commitments.” She relinquished her laptop without protest. She leaned towards him, resting against his arm lightly as he explained his schedule to her. Ishara and Renly still chattered in the background with excitement.
Jules glanced up and watched his profile through her lashes. She watched the way his mouth formed words when he spoke. “That sounds great,” she replied and when he pulled the video chat back into view, she leaned away from him and turned her attention to her company on the screen, though it wasn’t like her closeness to Owen had been hidden, just because the Skype window hadn’t been open.
“No.” She shook her head at Ishara’s question, and proceeded to reply in tentative German. The point of the call had been to practice after all. “I have never been out of the country. I am very much looking forward to it.”

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
