[Teddy's cheeks are flushed too, quietly musing on that. He'd trust him with anything...
They'd been working on that, since the possession left Billy. Teddy trusting him. Much of it had been broken the moment the fake got its hands around Teddy's neck, and they weren't mending much until the possession was gone for good. And it took a long time, months even, to come to this, not only with Teddy trusting Billy with his life, but all the reassurances that came with it, that he'd trusted before it was all broken apart.
He loves me no matter how I look. I can be honest with my appearance or change something I want to change, and he'd love me.
He would never replace me if I went missing, or died. He would search for me, even go to the ends of heaven and hell or the universe to find me. And he wouldn't stop unless I asked him to.
I mean so much to him, and he trusts me with everything.
And, even though it happened, and it'll be a scar for the both of us...
He wouldn't hurt me. Ever. Never again.
Teddy looks down at Billy after that moment to think, and he gently squeezes his hand.]

I do, too. I trust you with anything.
