It's not that he never believed her interest in him — that would be difficult to do, as Ninon has been the instigator in nearly all of their affectionate moments, most notably the very first time she kissed him just on the other side of that door in her library — but he almost feels like this is the first time he can really believe it.
The pink in his cheeks has nothing to do with shame right now, and when he rolls his eyes and huffs, the expression he wears is far more bashful than he thinks a man his age should be looking.
"I know I don't have any experience with this, but I'm fairly certain that's my line," he murmurs, letting himself sway down enough that he can kiss her, soft and chaste as is his wont.
If he's going to undress her, he's going to need both hands free, so once he's had his fill of kissing her for the moment, he shifts his weight back until he's kneeling over her — he pauses for a second to set this moment indelibly in his memory, the way she looks sprawled beneath him with her hair loose about her head and her nightgown doing very little to cover her at all — and then slowly, carefully, starts to tug the silk she wears higher up her body.
