Kate cocks her head and thinks about that. It only takes a few seconds for her to know it's wrong. "No. I'd probably just tell you I was interested or wait until the right moment and kiss you. I respect you too much to pick you up when we've both been drinking. I wouldn't want you ever to think it'd been a mistake or a game."

She smiles again, takes a long sip of her beer and then shrugs. "I'm pretty straightforward when I'm serious, I guess."
