[He can feel Childe standing right there and it makes it even harder on him. Thankfully, the knight has mercy on his poor soul and doesn't try to touch him. The small kiss that Aether gets once Elise is gone still sends jolts up his spine. It's like his skin is suddenly awfully sensitive.
The prince averts his gaze, hand covering the cheek as if to shield himself and hide the heat rising in his face. Obviously, that does nothing. He has no doubts he's completely defenceless when faced with Childe's charm.]
I... I'll do my best to practise. [He's well aware how bad he is at deceit. Up till now he never had any real need for such skill. Other than lying to himself about his feelings, that is. But fooling yourself seems easier than trying to convince others that your lies are truth.
Sighing, Aether finally accepts the hand and stands up form the floor.]
Be careful out there, okay? And I'll see you later...
[As much as he would want to hold his knight's hand, Aether forces himself to let go and then he turns to unlock the door. Now that he begins to calm down he can still feel the phantom of his lover's touch all over his body, making him crave for more.

It will be a very long dinner.]
