There were so many things he'd known he would never do, that, for the Rebellion, he'd ended up doing.
He'd still never…
He hoped he never would…
…he'd given up his own comfort and wants when it came to a sex life, subsuming all such behavior for missions and the cause. But the only not-truly-consenting party would only ever be himself.
He didn't think for a moment tonight would go in that direction. But he didn't want to impose or force anything. And he wasn't entirely sure he'd be able to resist… just… reaching out for her.
She'll be close. Make that be enough.
He nodded back, expression showing his gratitude for the way she was… caring for him, in all this. And carefully lay down, a bit closer than customary to the edge of the mattress to leave ample room between them; didn't have the strength of will to turn his back on her, wasn't so far gone as to face her, so stayed on his back. And focused on slowing his breath. Maybe, with heightened awareness, matching it to hers.
