The injuries and the time needed to recover from them does seem insurmountable, but Will has every intention of staying until he can take Christoph home with him. He refuses to stay in a hotel, and even though his go-to chair is extremely uncomfortable, he's not leaving.

He's a little worried that Chris' hearing has only gotten slightly better, but that small victory is enough to keep him hopeful that he'll be back to 100%, and hopefully sooner rather than later.

Will looks up from his thoughts just in time to catch the 'I love you', and smiles softly, murmuring it right back.

With Will being by his side Christoph knows he can over come all of this. Seeing Will with him each day makes everything better and sunnier. He hates that Will isn't going to a hotel to sleep but he can't say he's unhappy. Having Will close makes him feel safe.

Communication has gotten easier, just a little. He smiles up at Will.
