Holding his hands up only a moment in surrender, his smile softened as he edged closer into Jim's space. "Guess it does." He liked some of the Romantic Era writers. Just found their poetry a little over the top with that nature love. Not that he didn't like nature. He loved the woods and animals and all that sorta thing, just never considered writing odes or poetry dedicated to any of it. Still, he felt like this was pretty amazing enough to move him to want to do something to capture the moment.
And maybe that was just a silly thought brought on by the company and the feeling that came with the fact his company was Jim. Turning away from the vista, his eyes dropped to where Jim worked to open the gift, a nervous tension pooling in his gut as he waited for some indicator of what Jim's verdict would be. And if he thought he might be able to breathe when he knew Jim liked it, that brilliant expression went and took his damn breath away.
Smiling back, he ducked his head a little before reacting instantly to Jim's proximity. His hands moved to rest on the other's hips before leaning in to meet those lips. Squeezing his hips, one hand released that hold to move and cup the side of his face gently, tips of his fingers playing at Jim's hairline before dipping into the short strands at the back of his head. Pulling him closer, he just barely stopped himself from deepening the kiss. Instead he tipped his head and pressed their foreheads together. "You keep that up, gorgeous, and you're gonna make me weak in the knees." And really... they weren't standing in an ideal place for that.
