Maybe he doesn't mean for it to actually mean anything when he takes off his glasses in spite of the fact that there are others around, but it means the world to Lydia. To Lydia, that gesture says that she's the center of his world in that moment and that everyone else is second in line. It says that he knows she likes to see his eyes and that he's doing it for her more than for himself, because he typically sacrifices by leaving the glasses on for everyone else, regardless of what he'd like to do.

Maybe it doesn't mean any of those things, but that's what Lydia sees in the simple gesture of Matt removing his glasses in the middle of a crowded room and it earns him a soft, lingering kiss.

"Oh, did I forget to mention that part?" she jokes back. She nods at his food order and casually goes about getting a little plate together for him with his requests. If the domesticity implied in the way that she doesn't ask whether he'd like her to and he doesn't have to tell her before she just does it actually occurred to Lydia, she'd probably feel a little stupid about reading so much into simple things in the past several minutes alone.

She gives him a little kiss on the cheek as she puts the plate in his hands. "You're welcome, baby," she says quietly and her face warms in a way she's glad he can't see when she registers the fact that she's just used that sort of pet name for the first time with him. Sure, she calls him handsome a lot, but he is. This feels a little different. She's worrying at her bottom lip with her teeth as she looks back at him, wondering whether he noticed the slip of her tongue and how he feels about it.
