The gaze that slid once again towards Jack's was warm and amused. This time when the palm of her hand pressed again her chest, there was far more teasing there -- and of course> She was standing.
"Really, Jack," she whispered. "We are attending a gathering where we are now fully on display and there are lukewarm copies of our person wherever I seem to look. And yet suggest to play the part of a man only possibly satisfied? Have you no care at all for my reputation?"
For a moment, only a moment, there was a smile meant only for Jack. And then the mask slid firmly in place at his suggestion.
"Yes," Reinette agreed, already crossing the room towards the couple, her chin caught at a determined angle. "We shall."
