He clears his throat before he dares speak, knowing his voice would waver. He knows he's being given an opportunity here, fix what he said and circle it back to.. what? How he'd very much like to close the distance between them? How he thinks her lips will taste like wine?
Get over yourself, blockhead. Don't screw up the best thing you've already got.
Instead, he lets himself down and averts his gaze to the notepad. "Right, sorry. I uh. Think this might be it?"
