Tim smiles back in response. Matt can't see it but that doesn't matter. It's an automatic thing, a reaction to Matt Murdock having a smile that makes a room just a little bit brighter. He doesn't understand how someone can go from being so unbearably, intensely sexy to soft and gentle and smiling in a matter of moments the way Matt does.

His brow creases at the question. He's not apprehensive or skeptical, only curious. He trusts Matt. He trusts Matt more than he's trusted anybody else outside of his army unit. It's a different sort of trust, though. It's not the same thing as trusting someone with your life.

It's scarier, somehow. Deeper. And he doesn't quite understand it completely, but it's there.

"Yeah," he answers. His fingers tighten a little around Matt's. They're not dating, but for just this moment, it feels like they are. And Tim loves that, even knowing it'll make his heart ache later.
