Steve licks his lips with cautious hope, his eyebrows rising slightly at the fact that Peggy might actually consider this home. Not just a stop on her career, but a place to settle.
He feels a slight tingling in his fingers and arms as she says those words while holding his gaze. He smiles, letting out a small breath of amusement. "Brooklyn's got plenty of other things to see. Now that we've got the time."
He swallows thickly, still trying to believe that this is all real. He nods at her idea. "I don't know, there's a lot of women in New York. It might take a month or more for him to get tired of all of them."
He grins at her as the music stops and the band leader says they're taking a quick break. Suddenly the spell is broken and couples begin moving off the dance floor. Steve stills, reluctantly.
It all feels so odd to imagine that they have something as precious as time. Peggy had counted on it, but then his plane had gone down. Now that he's back again, she doesn't want to waste any more of it, because who knows what could happen that would take him away from her all over again.
She starts a little when it seems that the music has stopped, because she doesn't want this night to end. In point of fact, she wants to ensure that they have the night and the morning.
Perhaps it's time to start laying those seeds. "I'd love one," she agrees. "Do you want to have it here, or perhaps we might find somewhere quieter? Adjacent to yours?"

"Can I get you a drink?"
