Nigel nodded as Elinor spoke having clearly noticed where his attention had lay before turning towards her. He turned back momentarily to glance once more at it as he hadn't gotten very far only to catch mention of her deceased husband. Okay...not a good thing to think about at the moment, he mused to himself as he turned his back on it once more while the woman thanked him for the gift.
"You're welcome." He smiled ever so softly at the kiss on his cheek, gradually becoming more and more comfortable in showing the little signs of happiness. The shopkeeper had felt it only proper to bring something and had opted for flowers out of his choices, settling on the beautiful plant before them when he made his final decision.
One step down and now the next followed right after, the duo seeming to wait for the other to do something. Finally Elinor broke the silence taking lead as happened most often and Nigel listened to what was being said. "Cinnamon raspberry tea will be fine," he assured her as Elinor seemed to be working overtime to making him happy or at least content. "And we can have dinner now if thats alright." Perhaps with the food they wouldn't seem quite as awkward as they appeared to be at the moment, neither sure of where to start and end.
