Sulu wasted no time in helping pull the blankets over Ianto, moving to take his hands up in his own. Ianto looked even more tired than he had before the phone call, and he had to wonder what they'd talked about. Still, Ianto's explanation was enough for him in that moment, considering all Sulu cared about was that Ianto was all right. (Well, as all right as he could be in that particular moment.)

"Don't worry about it," he said, rubbing Ianto's hands between his own. He was warmer, now, that was for sure, but Sulu didn't think it would hurt to have a little extra heat. "And, just so you know, there was nothing going on when Jack was staying with me. He barely slept, I was sleeping all the time..." He trailed off, then shifted to rest his head against Ianto's shoulder, closing his eyes as he murmured, "We just didn't have you around for support, so we had to make do."
