11. Brad loves that Nate is taller than she is, even if it's only by a couple of inches. She's never been self-conscious about her height, and she's proud of her body - she's worked hard, and it's a perfectly honed tool - but it's nice that he can handle her, gently or not, without intimidation.
12. Brad knows Nate doesn't care what she wears - he's seen her when she's filthy, wearing sweat-encrusted cammies, and in her Class A uniform, and everything in between. But for him, she wants to make a good impression. The first time they hang out with his Ivy League friends at Sullivan's, she wears her favorite leather vest with a ragged denim skirt and a pair of boots (http://www.johnlewis.com/126228/Style.aspx?source=63257) that she swears her mom bought her because the description included "military style". Nate was speechless when she stepped out of his bedroom, her hair loose, shoving her phone and wallet in her back pocket. They ended up being late, and Nate's friends gave him a ton of shit about it, but Nate just grinned and hooked his fingers in her pocket to tug her closer.
