[ He's still apprehensive. No amount of verbal assurance can make him feel one hundred percent positive that this the right choice. Maybe he isn't looking to sweep her off of her feet, but going about things in this way just seems so...underwhelming. Doesn't she deserve more than a spur of the moment decision? Doesn't she deserve to have something other than The Fresh Prince as the soundtrack to their first kiss?
First. First implies more. But this will be it, won't it? They're both here now, alone, and convenience is on their side. But when that's no longer the case, what are the chances of something like this occurring between them?
He has more questions (it seems he's full of them tonight), but they all seem to circle around the same indecision. Either Steve does as she says and takes things as they come, or he puts a stop to it right now and spends the rest of the trip wondering what would have happened if he weren't so fearful. ]
Okay.
[ Before he can ask her if she's really sure, which he intended to do at least twice more, he meets her the rest of the way.
It's not the actual kissing he's worried about, but rather what is and is not allowed or appreciated. So he's cautious, as is to be expected, his lips just brushing hers. ]
