It's been a while, as far as Luke's body is concerned. Much longer than the week it should be. He knows it, can feel it in the way his mind knows how to instinctively relax but his body doesn't immediately follow suit.

He takes another kiss, eyes closing to focus on making his body behave and relax and sighs softly when it does. The second draws a small hiccup in his breath but he looks up to meet Cal's gaze and gives him a quirk of a smile. No pain, barely discomfort, more want and love than anything else is pushed over the bond.

"I'm okay," he whispers between their lips, leaning up for the kiss.
