[His earnest appreciation, along with that really cute expression, was enough to cause LB to feel flustered all over again. Still, her eyes meets his for a little while, before she ducks her head down modestly, not wanting to stare for too long.
Considering her circumstances, she didn't expect to find a way to make herself be magically sane again, but being around Alex never made her feel as weird as she thought herself to be. Even from the beginning, he had been nothing but kind and understanding toward her, so bringing him even the slightest bit of happiness felt like a major accomplishment for LB.
At a bit of a loss for what to do next, she looks back up at him and wonders if that was the right moment to do what she really wanted to.
Or should she wait until he was about to leave? But then that might come out of the blue, making the whole thing really awkward, and that wasn't what LB wanted.
And hey, she had only hugged a couple of relative strangers after the jump, what if she could still hurt him?
She shakes her head with a low mutter of a giggle as she reprimands herself for once again over-complicating things. It was just a hug, how hard could it be?
Finally gathering enough nerve, LB sighs lightly as she extends her arms and takes a step forward as she attempts to gently wrap Alex in a hug; hopefully a non-lethal one.]
