She moved to kiss him quickly, but the kiss was far from a quick and fiery kiss. She kept it slow, part of her thinking that would be so much better for him however it didn't take him long to pull away again. She didn't move too far and not just because he held onto her. She didn't want to move away from him. After all, she was still learning and still unsure about what she could do. What he would like. All her knowledge came from overhearing servants and then trial and error now. And when she tried something new, just something that came to mind as something that might possibly be nice, it seemed to be a very good idea.

While her knowledge was not too bad compared to most women, she did not entirely expect what did happen. Once he started to calm she moved her hand, watching as he grabbed a nearby napkin as he took her hand with the other. She let him clean her fingers and palm up in silence but she didn't let go when he had finished, letting him clean up himself next. Her eyes followed the napkin and when she turned to look at him she found his eyes on her. She suddenly felt incredibly young again. Nervous and a little embarrassed and she didn't know why. She was worried that there were a couple of things she had done wrong. The last time she had really felt like this had to have been after they shared their first kiss.

"Hello," she said softly.

{OOC: I was trying to pick and couldn't resist xD}

"Hello." He matched his tone to hers, becoming concerned that she was regretting having done that. If she did, it would be on his head for not having stopped her, regardless of how much she would protest that. After tossing the napkin aside, he made quick work of relacing his trousers, then gave her a small smile.

"Have I mentioned lately that you are amazing?"

"I am pretty sure this," she said as she held her left hand up to show him the ring, "says as much."

She was so relaxed now that he certainly seemed happy enough with what had just happened. And she was so incredibly glad that everything was all right between them after that. She had not intended on it this morning but now that they had taken such a step with each other it finally hit her that she had been ready for this longer than she thought. All those times, even when she was a teenager, where she felt something. Something she couldn't quite explain, but just knew she had to tackle. And now she finally found out what that feeling was. She felt so relieved and content, like some sort of coil within her had been stretched and released her from a hidden ache.

Now that Marian seemed more at ease, so was Robin, and his smile deepened.

"It does," he confirmed, taking her hand. "It also says that you have my heart. Really, you always have; and you always will." He pressed a kiss to her knuckle below the ring, and then got to his feet, retrieving their shirts and holding hers out. "As much as I am enjoying the lovely picture you make, it's too cold to stay like this. We should finish eating, and then, perhaps, we can go share the news back at camp?"

She couldn't help the loving smile that she gave him at his words, her head tilting down sheepishly before she looked to him once more. The feeling of love was overwhelming as her eyes met his and she sighed softly. "And you have always had mine. And no other will have it."

She stood as he did, taking her shirt when he handing it to her. It was only now she was starting to feel how cold it really was, she had been too focused on everything she had with Robin. And, well, that had really made her feel warm. Laughing at his words, she raised her eyebrow at the mention of how lovely what he saw was as she pulled her shirt on.

"I do believe we need the time to take a breath. You look far too happy and it will be obvious that your smile is not because I agreed to be your wife. You look...far too proud of yourself," she teased as she stepped forward, arms wrapping around his shoulders.

He laughed at that. "You have something of a suspicious glow about you, as well," he noted, returning the embrace before kissing her.

They were going to have to watch that; it was difficult to hide much with camp life what it was.

They were going to have to figure out how to handle things after the wedding.

Well, there was still time to get that sorted. For now, there were the remains of a dinner, and an announcement to be made.
