Instead of waiting for me to get up, he took a step closer, placed his hands firmly but tenderly on my waist, and effortlessly lifted me off the chair.
For a moment, I just froze, hands resting on my neck, cheeks burning. “Uh, thanks,” I mumbled.

Her eyes were fixed on me, and then she added with a teasing laugh, “So early in the morning and you two are already being sweet!”
