[His smirk at the blushing falters as Riku lunges for him; bootheels scrape awkwardly against the ground as he instinctively tries to lean back and keep his balance, and he ends up with his hands on the boy's arms to keep himself upright instead, as close as Riku is holding him. In the end, though, the impulse to back off and get the hell away from Riku, strong as it is, is able to be settled for the moment--in large part simply because he can't, Riku isn't letting him go yet.
So for the moment, he's willing to let himself be held dangerously close, body radiating warmth and grasp loose as he allows Riku to help support his weight. The smirk has faded to a mild half-smile, but his eyes are bright and keen still, fixed intently on Riku's face with an almost feline air of expectancy. Well? Is Riku going to let him go? Keep him close? Stop sending mixed messages? Maybe he needs to make up his mind before he offers any more orders.....]
