Evie saw, for the first time, a mild look of surprise from Gath. It didn't shock him, but she coud tell she took him a little off guard. Until that moment, he had thought they were talking in hypotheticals, discussing how compapible they were for a possible future together. The sly little minx had turned the tables on him, so to speak.
Gath had been leaning against the counter a little, bringing them more to the same eye level and e was now studying those beautiful eyes of hers, a new kind of grin slowly spreading across his face into a smile, "You...you're serious...you're feelings are such that you would start a family with me right here and now? Evie, it is not often that someone is able to surprise me, but...yes..." His smile widened even more as he overcame the brief moment of disbelief. Evie had effectively just proposed to him, clarifying a great deal about their relationship in a single instant.
What quickly followed was the first dime Evie had seen Gath in a moment of indecision. He glanced at the food and was trying to determine if it would keep and he should scoop her up and carry her off into the other room, or if he was supposed to try and now focus on preparing dinner with this thought dominating his mind. He could be such a constant strategist and tactician in everything else, yet she had discovered his one weakness. She had touched his heart in more ways than one and had overwhelmed him as a result. He locked eyes with her once more and she could read very clearly that this was uncharted territory for him. This was the first time that someone he had wanted to hear this from had ever said what he had so much wanted to hear.
