His eyes widen.

Not dramatically.

Xavier doesn't do anything dramatically.

His gaze starts at my face.

Bare legs.

Back up.

My confidence evaporates.

“What?”

He says nothing.

I pull the robe tighter.

“Xavier.”

His eyes return to mine.

“What?”

“You’re frowning.”

“I’m thinking.”

“That is not reassuring.”

His mouth moves slightly.

I cross my arms.

“What?”

He looks at me for another second.

Then shakes his head once.

“You’re all that.”

I blink.

“All what?”

“All of it.”
