[She'd grown up expecting physical contact to hurt more often than not. She also knew Leonard. So the small bump was not only comforting, but it spoke volumes about the emotion behind it.]
You'd better be. [It was even more comforting to hear him say he'd be careful. She relaxed slightly against him and happily ran with the subject change.]
How angry would you be if I said I might be interested in her? We shared a few drinks and... we flirted.
[It was telling that Lisa was actually flirting when there wasn't a con involved. She flirted with Cisco because she genuinely liked him, but he also was more of a Romeo and Juliette story. Wrong side of the tracks. She wouldn't subject him to her life. He was too sweet and too pure. But Sara could handle herself. She didn't have to worry that Sara would get hurt around her.]
[ all the earlier tension slowly bleeds out of him as len slumps down to slouch on the couch, hands covering his face for a moment as he moves and figures out how to answer... this. ]
I wouldn't be surprised if you were interested in her.
[ because sara is awesome. ]
The fact that we apparently have the same taste in women, on the other hand? That I didn't exactly see coming.
[ not... that he's actually made a move or anything yet. so there's no reason for that to stand in lisa's way. it's just.
[Lisa has to think about that for a moment because it almost flies over her head. Wait. Did Lenny just admit to showing interest in someone? ...well, shit.]
And that's my cue to stop flirting. [Lisa's posture straightened but she was grinning rather than uncomfortable.] You'd better make a move on her or I'll hijack your phone again and do it for you.
I'm proud of you. I didn't know you had such good taste. [She's teasing.]
[But that's okay, because that means she has plenty of time to orchestrate the actual first kiss between them and that is totally worth his party pooper attitude.]

That's because I don't kiss and tell. Unlike some people I could mention.
[ note how he says nothing about actually making a move. ]
no subject
Ohhh, you've already kissed her? [Why yes, she's excited about that!]
no subject
It's a turn of phrase.
[ no, he has not already kissed her. ]
no subject
You're no fun.

No playing Cupid.
