He did though. He saw that flash of pain across her face and it confused him. Did she want him to stay? He had just assumed that she wouldn't. Why would she?
He almost volunteered to stay, or offer to at least but he closed his mouth, swallowing his words. He couldn't get them out, somehow. He couldn't say them. It's not he cared if she was hurt or anything.
He made his way back over to her as she offered the toothbrush. He reached out and took it from her, his pulse racing as his fingers brushed against hers. He couldn't resist letting them linger there for a moment. Just a moment.
