She nodded again. That was a hopeful notion. Jamie still wasn't entirely sure of her own surety but he wasn't going to keep asking. That would only get annoying, he knew that much of the matter.

He nodded initially at her response. She wouldn't hate him. That made it a little easier, easy enough for one hand to pull away and work at the closure of his trousers so that he could slowly finish the remainder of his own undressing. He paused, however, just in his britches at her own question. He was on his knees between her legs on the bed at that point and looking at her slightly shocked that she'd ask such a thing.

"If I was going to think less of you, it'd have happened long ago," he said with a smirk, thinking over some of their previous encounters. No, he definitely didn't think any less of her. She was putting a lot at risk in that moment, after all. He should be the one that she thought less of.
