When he takes her hand, she finds her heart is pounding a little, but it isn't out of fear, she realizes that right away. More than anything else, she's excited. Maybe a little nervous, because she's never done something like this before and she isn't sure how it works or what she needs to do, but she thinks Chuck is willing to help walk her through that. He doesn't seem to think she's being stupid or that they need to stop. If he hadn't wanted to do this, he would have said as much. He wouldn't be leading her down the hall, holding her hand.

Once they get inside, she's halfway through shrugging off her guitar case when she realizes the living room is strewn with someone's things. Clothes and bags, all of it belonging to a woman, and she looks over at Chuck with a little grin at the corners of her mouth.

"Got a roommate?" she asks, but it doesn't matter. She puts her guitar case aside, then moves back toward Chuck, her arms slipping around his waist and pressing herself close to him.
