Kay almost lost her composure at that, half-amused and half-horrified that the word "darling" had just left Johan's mouth. It made them sound so... old. Old and sappy, for that matter, and she could only be glad he hadn't tried to pull a 777 and call her "babe", but still--
Judging by the little sighs and awwws coming from the people (who should really have been more inconspicuous), at least they were fooling the populace, and Kay's eyes danced while her face remained earnest. If Johan thought he could keep this up, far be it from her to be the one to break the illusion.
"Ohhhh," she sighed, drawing it out as though his very words had touched her heart or-- something. Once she was satisfied that Johan's hair had been neatened, she lowered her hand and placed it on his cheek instead. "As I thought, the place I truly belong is in your arms..." And with a mental grimace, she added, "Dearest."
