[Seeing Claude blush from his little affections turns that shy smile into downright beaming. Maybe this is just normal for the rush of a new relationship, but Dimitri thinks it practically magical, knowing that he can make Claude have such a wonderful expression just from something small he's done. It'll probably fade in time as he grows more used to their relationship (or so he's read, so he thinks), but for now, he wants to enjoy it for as long as he possibly can. In reality, it goes to show that whenever those insecurities of Claude's may pop up, Dimitri will have more than enough feeling and affection to reassure him of any worries about him losing interest or having his heart stolen away.
As Claude takes his hand though, he wastes no time in holding Claude's hand back, his beaming smile brightening once again even as all Claude does is lead him further into the room. Safe to say that it's definitely okay for Claude to take his hand wherever and whenever!
Just like always though, Claude's room really is the familiar, chaotic whirlwind he's come to expect it to be. Yet despite only being halfway through their freshman year, Claude's dorm is almost as homey to him as his own. He knows from experience how comfortable sitting on Claude's bed like a couch is, where exactly he can find Claude's laptop, that there's probably at least one book in Claude's stack that's on the precipice of being overdue at the library. It may be a bit messy, no matter how many times he's offered to help Claude clean up or organize, but it definitely gives it a homey feeling as well.
It's why he's a bit surprised as he takes a seat on the bed, his back against the wall-lined pillows. Despite his words earlier, it's definitely nice to be off his feet and sitting after working so hard during his hockey practice.
And naturally, he doesn't let go of Claude's hand even as he responds, too.]
Just until the year ends? Were you thinking of changing dorms? [He figured Claude would just renew his hold on it. Did he want to upgrade to one of the nicer dorms, maybe? There are some that come with more space and amenities, after all—which Sylvain never failed to describe as a hit with the ladies, no matter Dimitri's disinterest.]
