Well I thought that would only be fair. I didn't want you to feel awkward and alone in not wearing anything.

That's nice of you. Could you keep me warm then?

I think I should. These are cold nights approaching winter, and our only source of heat will be each other.

Do you think we could generate enough heat between us to keep us warm?

Not if we're just lying there completely still. We'd need to do something to generate sufficient heat.

What do think we should do in order to be able do that?

For a start, I think we should definitely go undercover, that would help to keep much of the heat in.

What do you think we should do next?

You could lie on top of me, that would trap the heat. What next?

Well given that a lot of heat is lost around your lungs and chest, the first thing would be to keep that area warm, maybe by rubbing it. But if I'm lying on top of you, it would be difficult for your hands to get to your chest.

Could you do that for me then?

If you insist. In the name of keeping warm, I shall rub it gently What next?

I hate to end it there, but I have to go for the night, need to do some work. I'll catch you sometime tomorrow in the afternoon? I'm at uni during the day.

Goodnight
