Broken Antler Fen Grass-Munchers

Well crap, now she'd done it. Her own dark ears folded down and a whine broke through her muzzle. She hadn't meant to worry him. Her voice cracked in anxiety as she tried to speak and the rest of her sentence came out high pitched and concerned.
      "N-Nothing's wrong! Its a good thing, I promise!"
She stepped forward and nuzzled into his shoulder in attempts to calm him, but found that not being face-to-face staring each other down helped her words flow. Feeling their pelts mingle and the bodies press together made her feel both supported and warm, and a tiny giggle bubbled from her throat as she thought about what she was about to do. This was it....
                     "I was wondering, if, well, since we've been doing so well.... Maybe you'd like to be a little bit more than just crushes?"
Her tone came out smooth and cute, albeit still just a little higher than it should be. Her yellow eyes were excited, but worry danced in their depths. What if he said no?
