[He stops them spinning, but still holds her off the ground with his arms around her waist as he looks up at her unblinking. Can't she already tell how this makes him feel? He feels like every good feeling in him is going to bubble up and explode in a shower of light and stars and he makes no effort to hide it from his smile. He looks up at her, his eyes very wide and very blue but soft and hiding nothing.]
I've... I've always wanted to. I mean... not like this. Not with us being stuck by magic mistletoe and - oh hey I guess we can move now.
[He takes a side step so they're both moved away from the mistletoe, and then he very gently sets her down again, but keeps his arms around her waist.]
I always thought I'd do it right, you know? I'd buy you flowers, take you out on a real date, hold your hand and maybe kiss you on the porch when we said goodnight. I wanted it to be special for you.
[Once again he presses his forehead against hers.]
Because you deserve special. You deserve everything.
