aflutter
Nervously all atwitter
Aflutter means fluttering or in a state of nervous excitement.
Hearts go aflutter at romantic moments; a town is aflutter with gossip.
The word suggests agitation—whether physical trembling or emotional anticipation: The whole office was aflutter about the CEO's visit.
Literary and slightly old-fashioned.
