[Now, see, the plan is to take her home. Just like she asked. The plan is to walk together the short distance to his block, invite her inside, and avoid his roommates for long enough to take her to his dorm room. There, he'd put on some music, mix them another drink, work up the nerve to kiss her, and the rest would just happen on its own. The rest is just biology, just instincts. The rest, he can do in his sleep.
But standing next to him like that, her arm around his and her fingers in his fur, a good couple of heads shorter than him, that feeling in his gut flares up again. That intense, near-overwhelming feeling, like heat bubbling in his core, it dominates his senses as Lup shoots him a look he has no trouble reading. A soft sound starts rumbling in his chest without him noticing, low and very quiet, almost like a growl. The vibrations of it are surely noticeable to the little human pressed against his side.
Barry wonders if he'll be able to make it the whole walk back to his dorm.]
Y-Yes. Of course. [Even as he's starting to have trouble thinking, Barry leads her through the bar and out the front door. Maybe the fresh air will calm his senses, cleanse his head of those muddled, instinctive desires.]
