Dan thought this over for a while before actually saying anything at all. When he did talk next he said, " Are you sure you want to do that? " With a smile before coming out and saying his actual reply, " Keagan, I want to be with you. " He stated simply to her, he broke his gaze to look down to their hands then looked back to Keagan.

As Dan thought, Keagan continued to look up at Dan, a smile still on her face. Gently, she squeezed his hand, encouraging him to go on. To his first, joking question, she responded "Very sure," in a murmur before he continued. With his words, her smile exploded, encompassing her entire face as she waited for him to look back to her instead of their hands. "Did you think after all this that I wouldn't want the same?" she asked, a certain type of slightly amused laughter backing her words.

" Oh, of course. Hey, you danced with me. You have to like me now. " Dan went on after Keagan had finished her statement with following laughter. He grinned slightly as he looked at her, turning his head slightly and kissing her gently. His movements were just that, gentle. Dan pulled away from her slightly as he looked into her eyes.

"Exactly. It's a must," Keagan replied, nodding and grinning back, even more so as he gently kissed her. She didn't even notice as he looked into her eyes as she closed the distance he had created and returned the kiss, every bit as soft but with slightly more pressure.

Dan was taken by slight suprise as Keagan returned his gesture, but he didn't pull away from it. He smiled into the kiss slightly as he kissed her back. He also let his free hand travel to Keagan's waist, resting there. As much as Dan would've wanted to continue on with their choice of activities he didn't know what Keagan would think of it. So he pulled back ever so slightly, leaving minimal distance between the two of them.

When Dan's free hand wandered to her waist, Keagan was completely conscious of its new position. However, she was also content with the standing of things when Dan pulled the slightest distance away from the kiss. She closed the small space again, but this time only placed her forehead against Dan's, smiling a small smile as she did so. "So, Mr. Dan," Keag began, speaking quietly, but in a volume far from whispering. "What does this new standing entail?"

Dan risked one more kiss from Keagan before moving back to her own created position for the two of them. His smile stayed the same as he listened to her. He laughed softly when she said ' Mr. Dan '. " Oh, I don't know what you mean by that. " Dan commented, looking back to her, a sort of curious expression on his face at that time.

Acknowledging Dan's curious expression, Keagan had to think for a moment about her rephrase. "I guess it's just another way to ask that reappearing question 'What now?'," she replied with a small shrug, moving her head back a short distance so she could look into Dan's eyes again without her eyes crossing uncomfortably. Since he had brought it up again, she was curious as to what would happen after this night.

" I, " Dan said, finally removing his hand from Keagan's waist and gently holding her free hand in his, " Will be your boyfriend. Or something like that.... " He finished with a light laugh. As Dan kept his eyes on hers he silently wondered if this would be fine with Keagan. Afterall, he didn't know how many, if any, relationships like this one she had had. " And I would like you, " He said, 'sneaking' in a kiss to her, " To be my girlfriend. " He would like it very much indeed. " Waddaya think? " He asked too quickly, resulting in a sheepish grin to Keagan. Dan thought that when they were done talking they might have to go to sleep... What time was it now? Midnight? Who knew how long they had been there.

"What do I think..." Keagan replied, trailing off thoughtfully as she pulled a bit further away and tapped their joined hands against her chin in an equally thoughtful manner. She, of course, thought a great many things, but, as always, it was difficult to put these into words.
Thus, her next action made complete and total sense in her mind as a vocalization of these thoughts. As one moment she was continuing the thoughtfulness with an audible, "Hmm...", and the next, had flung her arms around Dan's neck and kissed him soundly, though shortly.

Looking up to Keagan as she thought about this he shifted slightly while he waited. Dan then moved slightly so that Keagan had slightly easier access to his neck, she was now more or less located in his lap sort of. " I... I knew you liked me, Keag, but geez. " He finally managed to her as he teased her with a smile and his tone of voice. Placing a kiss rather sloppily on her due to how he had been sitting, Dan smiled. " Keagan? " He asked her after a second of silence.

'Twas true. Keag was pouting...or attempting to...again. However, just as Dan had failed on minutes before, she also failed now. Of course, she couldn't help but grin as Dan's sloppy kiss landed. "Bah, I can't stay mad at you," she replied to the question as she ruffled his hair with her hand, even though he hadn't said anything but her name. Then, smiling, she actually answered, though her answer was simple. "What is it, Mr. Dan?"

Dan shook his head slightly as his hair fell back into place as it had been. He smiled before thinking about going on. " Uh, Miz Keagan, I's thinkin', " Dan said, taking on the US Southern accent he had heard from his cousins all the time when he spoke to them. Whenever Keag called him 'Mr. Dan' that was what it reminded him of. So he went on, though dropping the accent, " I'm in like with you. " He stated with a simple nod of his head then smiled again.
Love was too strong a word... He had over-used it in the past and now... He felt it but wanted it to be even more special when he did say it.

Keagan rolled her eyes when Dan began to speak in his overstressed Southern accent, but she enjoyed it all the same. In fact, it made her want to giggle, and giggle is what she did. Keagan paused for a moment before replying when Dan stated that he was 'in like' with her. "And I with you," she stated herself, the smile she gave him more sheepish and shy than his own had been.

Dan laughed just as Keag rolled her eyes at him then giggled. He then settled into a smile as she paused. With her reply Dan nodded slightly and gave her a short kiss before pulling his head away a few inches, moving his hands slightly as he pulled her close. He faguely noticed her shy smile, how unlike her it was. But it fit her features well. She was so... Energetic. He loved it.
