Cecilia smiled gently as James spoke. She was pretty anxious, but it was because she wanted to tell him something instead of any negative discomfort she may have felt being around him. She paused for a second, gulping subtly as she too looked to the flames, stealing a final moment to get her words together. It seemed like he said something else when he turned away, and she had a feeling she knew what it was, which made her blush a fair amount. "That's good to hear. And you didn't make me uncomfortable. In fact, when I said that I didn't mind holding hands, what I meant was... I don't- I wouldn't mind holding hands... if it's with you, James," she said softly, though in a way that he could pretty clearly hear. She felt quite exposed both literally and figuratively as she quickly glanced at the firepit. Should James look to her, he'll easily notice how embarrassed she is although, he may also tell by her warm expression that she meant it.
