I don't really notice when we stop. According to Penny I don't notice a lot of things, and I'm sure she's right, but I definitely noticed that Bitty likes blokes. Maybe not exclusively, but there's no mistaking the way he talks about Derek.
I shrug. "I figured you were," I admit. "I guess I was kind of thick about the date part. I've never actually gone on one." I smile a little, but it's mostly nerves - by my age, I'm probably meant to have. "There was never time at home, and as soon as I was old enough to know what kissing was, there was Agatha."
I frown, but I still don't let go of his hands. I like holding them, and for a split second I remember the sight of Baz and Agatha in this same position, the jealousy that had spiked through me, and how it had entirely dissipated when I saw her again. Not because I was relieved, I finally realize - because I didn't really care if she liked someone else. I cared that she liked Baz.
Merlin, I'm a mess. "I don't really know what I like," I say after what's probably a long time. "Is that okay?"
