Molly is clearly also a very forgiving woman who believes in second (and third) chances. Someone who sees beyond what a person tries to make the world think they are.
If anyone else told her she was 'fascinating' as a compliment, she might worry that it was in place of outright calling her weird. But for him to call her fascinating is just about the best compliment she's ever received.
"Actually, I feel rather normal and dull most of the time," she says as she slides her hands through his hair. "Except recently, when I see you looking at me. I feel fascinating then." And in no way did she ever expect Sherlock to find her such. Interesting, at the very most. Fascinating was reserved for curious cases and bits of unearthed history or complicated symphonies or a locked door murder. People didn't seem to fascinate Sherlock unless they were dead. Until now anyway.
