"And to sweeten that offer, you can even finish the wine. I think I'll need to sleep soon..."
The thought that crossed Kyle's mind after that remark surprised himself, surprised him enough that he physically showed it by suddenly pressing his back to the seat, an instinct to move away from her. Kyle had always loved Susie as that sister he never had, and now seeing her grown up, a woman's body, was making him have irrational thoughts. When his eyes moved back to focus on her, he could see that she looked at him questioningly, and had hopefully not noticed his flinch.
"Oh uhh, sorry, I'm probably getting drunk as well."
He laughed, trying to hide the reality of it all.
"But yeah, you have yourself a deal."
Kyle turned his head around and could see that most of the people had already left, time had flown while he was talking with her, he noticed another Warrant Officer, Ravis, come back into the bar to eat something incredibly fast before leaving again, odd. Kyle took up the bottle, there was about half a glass left in it, he was enjoying their conversation and didn't really want it to end but after thinking about it, he'd rather not, considering where his thoughts were going. He put his head back and dunked the fine wine down as if it was just a bottle of beer.
"And you're right, it's getting late."
He started getting up.
"Would you like an escort back to your room, ma'am?"
