[ Even as she hides it, Faraday sees the laugh threatening to bubble its way from her lips, the smile tugging at her mouth. (He likes coaxing them from her, surprises himself every time when he finds he likes to see her smiling. Sometimes, he even tricks himself into think she has a different sort of smile when she's alone with him.
Strange little thought, he tells himself later. Couldn't possibly be the case, either.)
At her pointed look, he holds up both hands, widens his eyes in what might be innocence, trying to placate her with the gesture. ]
No meaning behind it. Just wondered if you'd seen the way he mooned after you.
[ It was cute, in a sad sort of way, because Faraday didn't see much sense in the matching, himself. But he's not entirely truthful, either. Part of him wonders if Emma must be lonely, considering the loss of her husband. Considering she seemed slightly removed from the rest of Rose Creek – not a hermit by any means, but not as involved.
Loss tends to isolate people. Dark experiences even more so. The battle in Rose Creek seemed to set Emma apart while unifying the rest of the survivors, at least in his eyes, and he's not entirely sure why. ]

Just speakin' aloud, is all.
