Julian nods, trying to banish all the resentment he'd nursed against this man for the last month of his life. No, this is the Guy he remembers. This is comfortable and lovely and sweet, and for that, Julian can't be convinced that it's going to last.
Very well, then. These renewed friendships, this second chance at life. Even if it's all temporary, he'll take it.
It's a moment before Guy can bear to let Julian go, and he does so with a heaviness in his heart from the restlessness of holding secrets still. He doesn't mean to keep Julian at a distance. If anything, he wishes to keep him closely, but confessions of such dastardly romantic feelings is something he doesn't have the courage for. Not yet. Not now. Not in this very moment, here, when things are so uncertain still.
Not while he's still gripping to the leftover fear that he might lose Julian again. That much, he couldn't bear.
"Thank you."
For taking this so bloody well.
For understanding, even if it doesn't entirely make sense.

For a chance.
For still being that bright, beautiful man..
