"Sorry," Malcolm said, leaning in to kiss Terrence's temple, looking at his stomach as if he expected something terrible to happen. "I didn't mean to."
"I know but... It's not fair. I know it's selfish but one of the reasons I don't want you injured because then I don't get to touch you and I like touching you," he answered. "I don't like you being in pain either and knowing I can't help at all."
He chuckled. "Well I should keep you company for a few days... Encourage you to eat and all that," he said with a smile. "I'll just have to hit the gym twice as hard or take Joe running with me."
