[ please don't throw him in a jail cell. he's an innocent bun. he's done nothing wrong!!
Unless this counts as wrong. That remains to be seen - but he has confidence. If he didn't, he wouldn't even be trying this right now. Judith was never straightforward, but he'd gotten rather good at reading her hints, he liked to think. He had no intentions like commitment or settling down or marriage - he was a servant and she wasn't the type for any of that and it wasn't something either of them needed. All he had was a desire to be closer to her. Zara wasn't good at not pursuing things that interested him.
So Zara leans over her and lifts a hand that gently tucks a bright pink flower behind one of her long ears (where was he carrying it? a butler's secret.) His palms drop to cup her face, and, after a moment of indecision, he tilts his neck until his forehead gently collides with hers. ]
... I won't ask you to commit, Miss Judith, but I will ask you to indulge my selfishness once in a while.
