"My crotch isn't bruised." Rik starts to giggle.

In pain or not, there's a certain sensuality to being undressed by his partner, even if it is to shower and get the dirt and blood off. He can't help running his fingers through Billy's hair while he's pulling off his boots.

"It might be easier if I'm standing." Rik takes a moment and then pushes himself to his feet. His ribs and fingers were throbbing slightly but the pain would go away eventually.
