That was nice, so welcome. He valued Gabe's touch at every moment, both the frenzied brutal need and also the soft quiet moments like this. He hummed and tipped his head more to those fingers, eyes fully closing as he allowed his protective guard to come down some.
Yet, his eyes popped open at the press of fruit to his lips and he peered up at Gabe for a moment before parting his lips and taking it into his mouth. He made certain to kiss those fingers and pushed himself up just a bit more on his elbow. Both of them had had a sandwich at least, plenty more food grabbed because it might have to last. He smiled, at first curling an arm around Gabe's waist and then reached for a carrot stick to chew on.
"Exactly. They seem confident we can perform in combat still," he agreed with a nod of his head. "I figure once we settle back down, you'll be having plenty of meetings of taking charge of things again, sort out the teams and making moves to send us into combat." Gabe was the highest ranked out of all of them after all.
He shrugged his shoulders at the idea that once he became his more passive self that he would be subjected to the usual ribbing that came after getting laid. It would be worse because it was Gabriel Reyes of course. "That's fine. I'll set the record straight."
