"Hm. Good."

He doesn't elaborate on why exactly he thinks that's a good thing. Part of it is absolutely teasing her, so she has to puzzle it out. Part of it is that he's sure she'll just appreciate that sentiment on its own. But a lot of it is the same reason he liked being told to dress up a certain way. It's tangible evidence of being wanted. It's easy for people to say, in that irritatingly empty sentimental way that everyone deserves to be loved or some other obviously fake garbage. One person thinks he's hot and said so. It's life-changing.

He turns his head to look across the crowd and contemplates asking her to dance, but he doesn't quite have the courage to dance in front of everyone yet.
