[ Dick's arms around him help tremendously, that solidness not stifling, but grounding. It hasn't hit him like this in a long time and later on he'll probably feel guilty and embarrassed, but right now all he can do is hold on to the one thing, the one person who can keep him here.

He wants to argue that it wasn't Dick's fault, that he wasn't thoughtless, but he's not there yet. He's still trying to calm his hammering heart.

When Dick starts singing, it's shocking enough to make all the rest of those thoughts go away. It's heartfelt and beautiful and after a moment his arms slide around Dick, too, and the tension slowly eases from his shoulders. ]

I love you too.
