James should have considered the question before he answered. Horatio needs rest. Once awake, James has little doubt Horatio will try and do something, even if it is simply sit up and read. He is simply not well enough for that yet.
But despite that, James nods into the darkness. "I will not go without telling you so."
He really has grown soft. Perhaps it is that gentle kiss that makes him even more so, makes his heart skip before settling back into its natural rhythm. Horatio has no doubt done something to him, although he can not easy say how or when the change happened, or if it is as simple as that.
There's enough room for James to sit up against the head-rest on Horatio's otherside, and he shifts to move there. At least then Horatio has some comfort in knowing James is close.
