When Fred invited him to stay and chat, Giles felt his heart start to pound in his chest. If he knew what was best for him, he'd turn around and go back to his room but it was so much warmer in the guest room. He didn't want to leave Fred alone, especially if she couldn't sleep though.
Stepping across the room, Giles stood in front of Fred. He wanted to move closer but he was almost afraid to. What he was feeling couldn't be real. He didn't even know how real she was, especially if she were some sort of angel from the Powers. "I…talking would be nice. I…well, I don't know…" He looked over at her and stepped closer.
"Your…um…" Giles reached out his hand and carefully brushed her hair away from her neck. "It was caught in your jumper and…" The words died in his throat, especially when he noticed his hand was lightly touching her neck. "Pardon."
He pulled it back and blushed again. "I…this is a bit awkward, isn’t it?" he asked, looking up at her through his eyelashes.
