Daniel Cooper's eyes flashed with an emotion, but before Amelia could discern it, it had vanished. Then, his eyes bore straight into hers as he very bluntly released two words, "Kiss me."
Amelia, "…What?"
Unperturbed, he provided an explanation, "You just said that if I have any requests, I should just ask, and you would do anything you can. So I asked for something within your capabilities."
Amelia, "…"
"Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, don't make such jokes."
"I'm not joking." His eyes, intense with heat, stared at her, "I want to kiss you right now. You can't go back on your word."
Amelia, "…"
At this moment, with him lying in front of her making such a request, her cheeks couldn't help but grow warm.
Taking a deep breath, she continued with what she was doing and said in a tone one might use to placate a child, "Let's put this on hold for now. Once your wounds are completely healed, I'll make it up to you."
"No, I want it now."
