Wil grunted in response and gave Merri one last squeeze before releasing him. Objectively, he would know he was being selfish, if he were thinking objectively. But he was hungry, tired, and really just wanted an entire cooked chicken, a large cup of ale, and to enjoy both naked under the covers with Merri in front of a warm fire.
Instead, the front of his pants were soaking through to the noise of the pained and the caretakers. He never claimed to be a hero, but he wasn't entirely devoid of sympathy. "Awright. Y'take the time you need." He sighed, putting one of his arms around Merri's waist to lead him over to his bike and not make his ankle worse.
Putting Merri's left arm over his head, he stood up, right hand around his hip and all but lifted him onto the bike in front of him as he loaded himself. "Y'just lean back, k?" Wedged between Wil and the controls should be enough to keep him steady. At least the water between them was warming up, Wil thought, as he kicked the bike into gear.
