"I want to check to make certain that the sutures held and that your arc reactor is still intact." That was one of many things that he wanted to do to Tony right now, but the medical needs overshadowed any other wants and desires that he might have in the face of the idea that Stark wanted to take care of him rather than pass him off to medical professionals.
It was probably the drugs. They were both out of their minds on drugs. It couldn't possibly last once they had worked their way out of their systems.
"Yes alright, you can take care of me," he agreed because it was not something that he would refuse now that it was so openly offered. He made certain not to sound eager about it either, playing it cool as the elevator arrived and he limped inside to lean heavily on a wall. Tony knew this big building as well as he did, but he allowed his bond to choose the floor.
Instead, he reached out and took Tony's hand in his own, rubbing his thumb over Stark's knuckles with plain affection. It was the drugs; normally, he wouldn't dare to be so open unless Tony had previously indicated being receptive to such an advance.
