“It's fine, easy mistake.” Salem said with a bit of a forced smile, trying to reassure Rune as he started to sprinkle the chicken breasts with flour before dipping it into the egg, trying to keep on schedule as much as he could even if they weren't necessarily in a rush. It wasn't clear if Rune really cared about messing it up or not as despite her choice of words she seemed pretty lackadaisical about the whole thing, but he didn't want to just leave it hanging there just in case.
Salem wasn't the type to be so taken off guard when his arm brushes past a woman’s breast; He'd been out with women before. But it was rather… distracting, to say the least, when Rune rested herself on his shoulder close enough to press her chest against his arm as she watched him work. He wasn't accustomed to a woman having that little care for personal space when they've only just met. Not that he minded, but he wasn't sure what to make of the situation exactly; whether this was a signal or if she's just that casual in general. He just tried to focus on the cooking as much as he can, though his face did redden a tad. “T-There, that should do it.” He said.
Once it seemed like Salem had brought things back on track for Rune, she let go of Salem and turned her attention to a different part of the kitchen. “I guess I’ll give you the rest of the chicken then, Salem, my dear. I’ll start on the tomato sauce then? Sorry again~”
“No, it's *ahem* it's fine, just a minor setback.” Salem said, clearing his throat as he turned to Rune as she started to walk off. For a moment he let his eyes linger longer than they should… as he snapped out of it and turned his attention back to the stove, he hoped he didn't leave the oil in too long unattended.
