He liked hearing her say those words, even if he would've been more than a little appalled (with himself, that is) if he'd been able to read Fox's thoughts. "I like your attitude," he growled jokingly before nudging her into position.

"I didn't break you," he murmured, satisfied, before littering her cheeks with little pecks of kisses. He also kissed her forehead and eyelids. "Thank-you for taking my mind off things, love."
