Jake and Em had set up a little ways apart from each other that day, but where they could still keep an eye on each other, and when it got slow for Em for awhile, she decided to pack up and cross the short distance to hang out where she could listen to him play better. And feel a little safer, when if anything, she was putting her flatmate in more danger instead of herself in less. With her thoughts on potential dangers, she somehow missed the more obvious danger and bumped right into someone.
"I'm so sorry," was reflexive but still true, and followed by, "Really. Not your fault I wasn't paying attention to where-" Em was so caught up in feeling terrible about not having seen the - absolutely beautiful, and how could anyone miss him - man, and brushing off any fault he might want to take on, it took a bit for her to realize what awkwardness he meant.
Her face felt on fire, the blush was so immediate, and she ducked her head as she waved off that apology too. "I do the same thing," she explained, as she bent to pick up the sketch pad and getting a better look at the drawing. "Parks are good places for it."
