[He doesn't move just immediately when he feels that wince. He stands for a second, just holding Peter to get his footing before slowly moving to the stairs and up.
But his voice is quiet, softer than anything Peter's heard since they woke up.]
All right. I'll take care of you, don't worry.
[It's easy, like he's done it a million times, laying Peter down on the bed. And it's hard, the hardest thing he's ever had to do to leave him there to go back to the kitchen. Leo's terrified of leaving him, hand lingering on his shoulder before he finally slowly takes a hesitant step back and really looking at Peter laying on the bed. He's so scared of coming back and finding Peter gone, or worse.
But he does go down. Preps some very very easy simple toast, just has butter on the side in case it's not okay for now. Glass of water and a bed tray all come back with him but he's quiet in case Peter's dropped off asleep.]
