His hand slid out from under her shirt, coming up to cup the side of her face, making it so she had to look at him. "I want to. I mean, I really want to." But not here. Not in a shack while there was still the possibility of loosing a body part to frostbite.

What he wanted needed to be shelved for now. He wanted to return the favor she'd done for him, focus on her and what she needed. He leaned in, laying a softer kiss on her lips, something slower and less greedy. "What do you want?" What could he fumble his way through to try to make her feel something close to what he had.
