[He takes it all in stride, laughing lightly as he brushes crumbs off his shoulder with the backs of his fingers, looking up under his lashes as Finn untangles himself far enough to wrap his fingers around Rey's and lead her forward.]
I have been told I'm pretty lovable.
[It's a cocky kind of joke and it doesn't settle before Rey's dropping onto the bench beside him, arm around her neck and other hand still entwined with Finn's. He grins again, without an ounce of anything resembling sharpness, only wavering at the light pull of her fingers in his hair, enough to have his eyelids shuttering closed, a little shiver and the gentle reminder of the last time he saw her.
Not like he needed it.]
And you look just as beautiful.
[He doesn't pull her into a hug in turn- or tug her onto his lap, even if it sounded like a great idea. All he does is set his hand at her back- barely touching her, just the pads of his middle and ring finger at the dip in her spine, sliding lightly down before he pulls his hand away and refocuses with a blink. Looks at Finn over the span of her shoulder. Smiles patiently and waits.]
