Emmy said that numpty was a real word and Rory started shaking his head right away. "I'm pretty sure that even if it wasn't, you'd tell me that it is, just because you can," he teased, though now he couldn't help but wonder. Was it a real word or was Emmy pulling his leg, like she'd done so many times before in their friendship. Things started getting dark and Rory shook his head once more when Emmy shushed him. Yeah, like he was the one that was likely to be super loud during the entire thing ... not. He didn't mind though. The next thing he knew, her hand was touching his and Rory instantly focused on her. Was that on purpose? The more likely answer was yes. Emmy did almost everything on purpose, as he knew very well. She didn't move her hand though, so Rory left his where it was, not wanting to pull away. Instantly, his mind was flashing back to all the things they'd done as children, with her dragging him around, often by the hand. It was interesting how things like that changed when you grew up. He was hardly paying any attention to the voice above, but smiled at the memories. He was glad to be here with her. He'd missed Emmy over the years and was starting to think that he might want to try something more than friendship with her. Now wasn't the place though, right? Besides, if Emmy was interested in him as anything other than a friend, she'd show it. She could be a big flirt when she wanted to be.

Emmy shrugged when Rory said that even if numpty wasn’t a real word, she would say it was. She wasn’t sure whether or not the statement was true, but she didn’t really have to consider it – she knew that numpty really was a word. Why was Rory even doubting her in the first place? She was a writer, so she knew a lot of words. Then again, Rory also probably knew a lot of words, but they were medical terms that he’d probably never try to define for Emmy in the first place. He went quiet as the voice above began to talk, but Emmy found that she was having a hard time focusing on that. Instead, all of her awareness was going into the fact that Rory hadn’t moved his hand away from hers. It had been a long time since they had held hands, Emmy knew. When they were kids they used to do it all the time, but now, things were different. They couldn’t hold hands, because their relationship wasn’t like that. People made a lot of assumptions about the nature of their relationship, but as far as Emmy knew, Rory had never been interested in her. It was confusing, because a lot of Emmy’s realization of her own feelings had been done when she and Rory were apart from each other – like her dedicating her first book to him. It was just… messy.

Emmy didn't respond to him before the show started, so Rory decided to let the subject drop, though he was still considering. Was numpty a real word? It honestly didn't matter that much, since he knew that whether it was or wasn't a real word, Emmy would continue to use it, but now he was a little curious. If it was a real word, what did it mean? However, the show already started and he knew he'd get a slap or something if he interrupted it to ask a silly question like that. Maybe he'd ask later ... or maybe he'd just look it up once they parted ways. Either way, it didn't matter right now. The thing was, as excited as Rory was to come here, the show wasn't really mattering to him at the moment. Emmy still hadn't moved her hand away from his and Rory was starting to feel a sort of tension in the air between them. It wasn't really a bad sort of tension, but it was unfamiliar. He wasn't exactly sure what to do, but he suddenly knew what he wanted to do. He wanted to take Emmy's hand. A part of him was nervous that it would complicate things, but a different part thought that maybe it would relieve this tension he suddenly felt. He waited a few moments, but she still wasn't moving and the backs of their hands were touching. It was done in a mere half-second. One moment, the backs of their hands were touching and the next, Rory moved his hand, twisting it so he could hold hers. His stomach tightened as he waited for her reaction, but the tension from before was gone and he realized that the entire time it was nerves. Only now, it was inside of him since he actually made a move.
