Hayato's smile seemed almost surreal considering the given situation, but Ryuutaro was not about to complain. He smiled. It was a weak but genuine one.
"I love you, too."
He almost contemplates saying something even more serious, but he was way too tired for anything like that. It just wasn't the correct situation either.
"How do you feel?"
Hopefully Hayato felt a little better than Ryuutaro himself. But Ryuutaro had a hunch that it would take them both more than a little while to physically and mentally cope with all that had happened. Even if they should be used to such things by now.
