[Chuck likes the silence that follows. It's comfortable, and it gives him time to assimilate the words, soaking over his skin and absorbed through his pores. He doesn't know what he wants from this, from Mike. Or maybe he does, but he's not sure he quite understands the full extent of it, and he's not sure if he should be so bold, act so selfish, especially when he's not even sure what he wants from himself, let alone someone else.
It's nice to know, though, and he also knows Mike will be there waiting. (For now, at least. And if he's too late, if at some point Mike decides he will no longer wait, then he figures that will be alright too.)
He smiles and nods, looking up at Mike again.] Yeah, I... I know.
