Mike doesn't smile because he knows that's the wrong move to make--but he soaks up all of attention, all of that love in his tone, and his nostrils flare, pleased. He lifts his head up as best as he can to watch but he doesn't dare move, doesn't dare step out of line. things are starting to go well. Finally.
All he has to do is shut up and obey.
There was a time he'd fight back. He's still thinking about it--how he can try to kick free of Liam before his leg is pushed to bend and he's tethered. But he doesn't. His breathing does pick up, Mike knowing he shouldn't speak. He feels like he should let the other know he understands but he fights that urge, too.
He just has to focus on the fact that it's going to work. That finally, he understands just a bit more of Liam.
