He hopes it doesn't ruin their night.]

I'll be okay. I just hope I've not made things worse.

[He gazes down at Atem's fingers, curled around his wrist, and he tries to will his nerves away. Still, his pulse is a bit quicker than normal, and his ears are still not entirely relaxed. One is rotated back, listening.]

I should have told her it was a date, shouldn't I have? But before you got here, she was being very familiar, and I...I just let her. I'm sorry.
