[ Leo actually likes hearing her laugh like this - it means he hasn't lost his touch, and it's good to know they don't have to be super serious about this whole thing. If they did, it'd probably make him more nervous than he is already. Everything is easier when you're allowed to laugh, and it makes this a much easier line to cross with Natalie, though no less significant.
It feels odd not to have the weight of the belt at his waist, but Leo is not sorry to see it go. It's just one less thing between them. A soft, pleased chuckle bubbles up within him when she shivers, and he pauses to decide where to go next. Her ear? Would she like that? Maybe if he had something to say, he'd go for it, but for once, he doesn't, so instead, he starts to trail down her neck. ]
