[Even while dozing, Teddy's a pretty heavy sleeper. The book lifting out of his lap and the added weight on the couch doesn't wake him from his light sleep, though his lip does twitch a little. He's having one of those dreams, where weird things are happening and you can control it a little due to having some part of your consciousness that isn't asleep. Right now, it's something about Billy as a nurse and getting a cut on his finger that Teddy can only cure with his lips.
But then he's knocked out of that rather quickly when there's a sudden weight in his lap, and Teddy snaps awake and stares ahead, his eyes on the book. Confusion settles as the dream drifts off into the boulevard of forgotten dreams, because how is the book -
Then the comment registers, and Teddy looks down at that weight in his lap. Aaah. Now he understands.
He relaxes again, one hand taking the book so that Billy doesn't have to strain his arms and the other resting on his boyfriend's collarbone.]
Ha... I was kind of hoping I could surprise you with it. [It's more a joke than anything; Teddy's sure he'd go whining to Billy as soon as the book told him a term he didn't understand. He's smiling, though, as he strokes his thumb across Billy's collarbone and muses with the collar of his shirt.] I'm glad you're back.
[Action] well damn
