[Hinata realizes a beat after the second part that he's perhaps looked at Komaeda a little too long. He adverts his gaze, just a bit bashful - and after the words that follow, somehow a little pleased. If he wasn't sure before, he is now. It's okay though, they can both be embarrassed together.]

You just happened to, huh? [He's grinning, much less watery, as he reaches out to catch Komaeda's sleeve. Come back.] We can call it that. In any case... you're welcome.

[Seeing Komaeda embarrassed isn't a better present than this whole party combined, but it's still pretty good.]
