[ He feels his phone buzz in his pocket but he can't justify pulling it out again now that he's already exhausted his most plausible excuse. Maybe if he'd pretended to have a loved one in crisis, but that would invite more curiosity about his personal life, which is the last thing he needs. Anyway, it's for the best that he get through this lecture before he entertains the all-consuming idea of sketching Daisy any further.
By the time he dismisses the class, he's managed to put Daisy as far out of his mind as she ever allows herself to be, which isn't very far at all. She hovers at the edge of every thought, demanding to be acknowledged, recognized, appreciated as thoroughly as she deserves. And he is more than willing to abide, just as soon as her fellow students complete their leisurely departure.
There are still a few stragglers gathering their things, taking their sweet time, and it would be too suspicious to rush them. He turns to his phone again, biting his lip to conceal the bright grin that wants to cover his face when he reads Daisy's response. Not everyone is comfortable submitting to the technical scrutiny of an artist studying their every physical feature. That she's willing to pose for him means more than he can say without showing all his cards. ]
I do. I've wanted to draw you since I've known you.
