Jayce's tendency to be ready to go at any time has taken some getting used to, but Viktor supposes this is technically a vacation, so there's some room here for indulgence, as long as they don't spend all of their time at the inn. That would be a waste. Still, Viktor thinks he could use a reprieve, after being made to have a medical consult. He can take a short break, he thinks, especially for this.
Viktor lets his leg brace clatter to the ground, then starts to undo the latches and buckles on the front of his back brace, holding still so that Jayce can lift it off of him. He shudders at the press of lips against the line of his spine, the feeling of someone else touching the bolts there still unfamiliar. Jayce holds him in that embrace for a moment before he re-takes his position on the mattress, and despite the fact that they're both half-dressed, Viktor joins him a moment later, sliding up against his side and propping himself up on an elbow so that he can lean down to kiss him.
"I wasn't actually serious. I'm not going to make you call me that." Boyfriend is too juvenile for Viktor, but partner is too ambiguous for Jayce. It seems they're at an impasse, for now. "You should know how difficult I am to impress."
