[He realizes it, of course he does, because though he may be the type of person to blunder himself into uncomfortable situations, he's not completely incapable of recognizing them. He's had enough experience speaking to people who find swearing and casual speech in general to be unpleasant, to be unprofessional, and when he really needs to, he can clean it up. Apparently, this seems to be one of those times.]
Sorry. Guess I could've phrased that a little nicer.
[It's not hard to see the uncomfortableness on her face, the way her brow furrows for a moment, which is a no less beautiful expression than the other expressions she's made, in the time they've been speaking, but which he's still unhappy to have caused to occur. He always seems to be putting himself into this position, one which requires an apology and an attempt to shape up, and the worst part is, he does it completely unintentionally.
When her leg brushes against his, though, he can't help but let the smile come back. Hers isn't an intentional touch, of course it isn't, but when he moves his own leg a little, brushing his knee against her thigh in a feigned attempt to shift positions, there's nothing accidental about it.]
