His laugh is infectious though, and Felicity finds herself chuckling in return.
But it's Derek's explanation that there isn't a line of women waiting for him that gets her eyebrows to come down, and for a softer smile to settle all the way to her eyes. "You sound like a personal trainer already." New place, new life, new me. "But really though," she says, to be serious for a moment, "since I only know the new you, I think he's pretty great. So you must be doing a good job."
The music too, is coming to the last 30 seconds, and when Felicity senses it, there's a tug at the pit of her stomach, like she doesn't quite want it to end. But she doesn't want to be greedy either, so her smile doesn't falter. He did come here with someone after all.
