"You do!? Shit, I thought I was slick." He snapped his fingers, too flustered to be annoyed at himself. He really had thought he'd been sly about the whole thing. Oh, well!
He pushed up off of Queenie and stumbled his way over to where Rose was sitting. He threw himself down next to her so hard he bounced and flung an arm around her shoulders.
"I will! I will, I will! Hey, date, you wouldn't want a celebratory prom kiss, would you?"
There's a sparkle in Rose's oddly colored eyes as she turns to regard JW. A decidedly flirtatious sparkle. It's a very human thing, but she quite likes kissing. And all those other things in the same general category. It's been a while since she kissed anyone, too.
Actually, it's been a very very long time - in organic years - since she kissed anyone but Greg. It's exciting!
He wasn't bold enough to kiss her on the lips--not on the first date. Since that's what this was. Though it did seem a little silly being so chase after living in close quarters for so long.
Still, JW didn't want to take anything for granted. He hadn't been looking for signs of affection or anything resembling a love language. It would take a little while to figure out which one Rose speaks.
He leaned down and poked her in the cheek with his nose but managed to snag himself an excited kiss.
Rose giggles, closing her eyes briefly for that first little kiss. It's sweet. And she has no real sense of chasteness or anything else. She knows humans can be funny about sex and love, but she's still not entirely sure why. They're wonderful things!
But she's human now, and trying to live like humans do.
She rests her forehead against JW's, smiling, that little sparkle still in her eyes.
"Thanks," JW said for he didn't know what else to say to that. He felt dizzy. This was happening! He never thought he'd like anyone after Gloria. He did occasionally Look at Jack but then he saw the shit he and Jack got themselves into and remembered why he broke up with Horas.
But this was something else entirely!
"You know, I've been dying to find out what a hug from you feels like. You got good arms." His accent clung to his words.

She still has a lot to learn.
But it seems to be all cleared up now, thank goodness!
"Well, now we have that all straightened out. I hope you can enjoy prom now."
