Merrick was so excited he was tempted to grab Gwen by the waist and swing her about in a circle for her brilliance. But before he could do any such thing she removed her hand from his arm and was trying to leave without him. "Nae, m'Lady Moore. I made a promise te escor' ye an' I will nae go back on me word," he said firmly as he stepped up to her. "The spell can wai' until af'er o'r afternoon meal."
Offering his arm to her again he stepped up, looking determined and it was clear how loyal he was to her brother and this opportunity he had been given. "I was goin' te say tha' ye be as brillian' as ye be beautiful fer such an idea abou' the ceiling, thus thank ye," he said with a slight bow, unsure of what else to do or say. He would wait for her to make up her mind about whether she would be taking his arm again or not.
One thing was for certain though, she wasn't getting rid of him so easily. He watched her with his sea-green eyes, hope in them that she would give in because he didn't want awkwardness between them. Not that there was much between them to begin with, save for maybe a budding friendship.
