(He can feel it. The anxiety, the worry, the dissatisfaction, wanting to do more... and he can understand it. He isn't so oblivious and out of touch that he can't see why someone would feel that way but right now, this is enough. It's enough to just be alive, to have Aki here, to remind him that he's with someone during a difficult time.
He shifts just slightly so Aki can kiss his fingers. It would be easy to feel ugly as bandaged and damaged as he is but from Aki, he doesn't feel any disgust or any less love. He manages to get a laugh from him and it makes him smile,)
An anniversary. The first of many. (Just the first one for the year and he gives Aki's hand a small squeeze,) So celebrate with me.
Don't be miserable because of me. I'll keep myself together.
