It feels so good to have Steve's hands back on his hips, that it's honestly a wonder that he doesn't purr in some way. As it is, he lets out a quiet hum of approval as he kisses him back, leaving very little distance between them.

"I do," he agrees, his fingertips moving slowly along Steve's back again. "...you think I can just...I don't know. Call in sick and keep you company?" He 'steals' another soft kiss before looking up at Steve again, pretending to look innocent but there's a glint of something in his eyes that show that he's anything but. "I mean...you know. Since I got beat up in the Commissary and all, I could just...'rest' here."

Except for the fact that resting would be the farthest thing from his mind, but...minor details.
