 He handed me the jacket, interrupting my ogling¹. 他把夹克递给我，打断了我含情脉脉的凝视。

"Thanks," I said again, sliding my arms into his jacket. “谢谢。”我又说了一遍，这才把胳膊套进他的夹克里。

It was cold—the way my jacket felt when I first picked it up in the morning, hanging in the drafty hallway. 这件衣服很凉——就像是我那件一直挂在通风的走廊里的夹克，早上第一次穿上时的感觉。

I shivered again. It smelled amazing. 我又哆嗦了一下。这衣服闻起来很不错。

I inhaled², trying to identify the delicious scent³. 我深吸了一口气，想要分辨出这股甜腻的香气是什么。

It didn't smell like cologne. 闻起来不像是古龙水的味道。

The sleeves were much too long; I shoved them back so I could free my hands. 袖子太长了，我把袖子推上去，好让我的双手解放出来。

"That color blue looks lovely with your skin," he said, watching me. “这种蓝色和你的肌肤很是相衬。”他看着我说道。

I was surprised; I looked down, flushing, of course. 我很惊讶，只得低下了头，理所当然地脸红了。

He pushed the bread basket toward me. 他把那一篮面包推到我面前。

"Really, I'm not going into shock," I protested. “真的，我根本就没受到打击。”我反对道。

"You should be—a normal person would be. You don't even look shaken." He seemed unsettled. “你本来应该会的——正常人都会受到打击。你看上去不为所动。”他似乎有些动摇。

He stared into my eyes, and I saw how light his eyes were, lighter⁴ than I'd ever seen them, golden butterscotch. 他凝视着我的眼睛。而我看到了，他的眼睛是那么的明亮，比我见过的任何一次都要更明亮，是一种金色的奶糖的颜色。

"I feel very safe with you," I confessed, mesmerized⁵ into telling the truth again. “和你在一起让我感到很安全。”我坦白道，又一次被他催眠着说出了实话。

That displeased⁶ him; his alabaster⁷ brow furrowed⁸. He shook his head, frowning. 这是他有点不快。他摇了摇头，皱了皱眉他光滑白皙的眉毛。

"This is more complicated than I'd planned," he murmured to himself. “这比我计划的还有复杂。”他低声自言自语道。

I picked up a breadstick and began nibbling⁹ on the end, measuring his expression. 我一边拿起一个烘焙面包卷，开始一小口一小口地把它吃完，一边估摸他的表情。

I wondered when it would be okay to start questioning him. 我想知道什么时候才适合向他提问。

"Usually you're in a better mood when your eyes are so light," I commented, trying to distract him from whatever thought had left him frowning and somber¹⁰. “当你的眼睛如此明亮的时候，你的心情通常都会比较好。”我评价道，试图把他的注意力从那个让他皱着眉闷闷不乐的想法里转移过来。

He stared at me, stunned¹¹. "What?" 他吃惊地看着我。“什么？”

"You're always crabbier when your eyes are black—I expect it then," I went on. "I have a theory about that." “当你的眼睛是黑色的时候，你总要更暴躁些——我想是这样的。”我继续说道。“我有一套关于这个的理论。”
