"No," Tim says, and though he wants to, he doesn't reach out to touch Matt's hand this time. Not since Matt tensed before. He doesn't know why, but he does know better than to do it again. "All I had to do today was testify. That's done, so-- I'm yours."

Technically, he probably has some paperwork he could be doing, some reports to file or something. But nothing that has to be done today. It's nothing that can't be put off. They don't need him in the office or out in the field today. He was slated for court the whole day and that ended a lot earlier than anybody anticipated.

Right now, this is more important than anything else he could be doing. Making sure Matt's okay, that they're okay. That Tim's going to be okay later when they really are alone.
