(That... was not what he expected. The tension once more fading though he's not moving yet; he did tell her himself that he would not do so unless she wills it. It's why he waits since this is suppose to be done at a pace she wishes for instead of a complete rush. His eyes are trying not to leave staring off straight ahead to take chance to look back at her to make sure she was okay.
He doesn't want her to feel need to rush as he's said.
That's why he dare thinks that Kaeya would be encouraging him further to speak onward, to stop holding it all in if he's sworn to secrecy in the end. Though secrecy from Diluc is as a good as assured knowing just how he is.
His own heart is pounding too, thundering just about as he attempts to make himself calm down. If he over does it... it'd be as good as hurting them both in the end which is another reason why he was not certain if he should have said it.
He can consider this as a fortunate moment by the grace of some other Archon knowing Barbatos or rather Venti, would be too amused by their antics.)
... even now it's still hitting.
(Yet he will not let himself do anything she does not want unless she says something first. He told her that after all when he went to warm her.)
