[He lets himself be cared for, simply too exhausted and sore to protest. And honestly, why would he? Bells loves him, so it's okay for Kurt to let him take care of him. The feeling is like soaring, grabbing hold of his heart and taking off with it. It doesn't even matter if he's hurting on the outside, because the inside is being mended at last.
Rolling to the side, he smiles sleepily at Bells.] I'm good. I'm...really, really good, actually.
[ A lazy slide of his fingers along a thigh, and Bells leans over him, smile soft as he moves to lie beside him.
You know. [ He takes Kurt's hand, gently tracing over the knuckles. His eyes are focused on the movement, the warm and differences between their skin. ] You're the first person I've said that too. Ever.
[ He's quiet for a minute, and when he finally meets Kurt's eyes, there's a soft smile. ]
That you're not gonna leave me. [ A quick shake of his head. ] Well-- I know it's more than that. It's not like you can really explain it with words. Right? But I care about you.
[Kurt feels that tightness in his throat again and he leans forward impulsively, kissing Bells on the mouth. It's a short, sweet, surprisingly innocent kiss, and he smiles shyly as he pulls away. It's almost as if they didn't just have raunchy wall sex a few minutes ago.]
[ He oh so maturely sticks his tongue out at him, caught in a grin as he leans his head against a shoulder. Bells closes his eyes, a hand resting on Kurt's chest. ]
It's good enough for me as long as you get it. [ And then he's silent again, voice low the next time he speaks. ] But hey. You should think about what I said earlier. I was serious.

Really?

What do you think it means?

I'd do anything for you, Kurt. I'm yours.

I think you got the gist of it, yeah.

I will. I'll consider it. It makes sense, I just... [He trails off, biting his lip.]
no subject
You're just not sure. Right?

[It's horrible that he has to qualify that.]
no subject
[ But he can only reassure him so much. He doesn't actually have that kind of control. ]
