Just smile and be happy.
The offered pinky just added to the feeling of lofty hopes and dreams, like children promising something as simple as 'to always be best friends forever.' It made Zavien smile, more than happy to live in the simple moment. He latched his finger around her own, letting the contact linger, sealing the promise between them.
His hand finally released hers when she gave that light and airy word, the only permission he needed before reaching forward. Gently grasping the side of her head, he marveled at the softness of her hair, the hint of blush on her cheeks, the feel of his breath mixing with hers, their heartbeats racing against each other. It was only a moment, but he drank in every detail before tenderly meeting his lips with hers. It was a soft kiss full of latent potential, a spark that had him feeling blinded and lightheaded. He resisted the urge to press her closer to him, letting her set the pace.
