Overdramatic was definitely the name of the game in that moment, but Seth couldn't help himself. Using the knife as he was, counting on his own skills not to end up using the damn thing to hurt Kate in ways that she had defended herself to keep from even happening.
Eventually they were going to have to get rid of the body, ditch the hotel, and find a new place to stay. Eventually was after he kept playing the injured party in a moment that had definitely not hurt him except in leaving him fearful o what would happen if he lost the woman before him.
He was expecting her to pull away, to yell and scream. He was waiting for her to turn and be out that door before he even had a chance to stop her. If she had done exactly that, he wouldn't have been surprised. He wasn't sure if he would have followed her after either, so when she didn't pull away, instead moving in closer as he had asked, Seth nearly made a sound when he exhaled.
Instead he reached out, moving closely as he let his fingers trace up her arm once more, moving in another step to try and pull her into his arms. "Hey. You did good," he murmured softly. "You saved your life, which means I'm not standing here alone and about to go out and shooting spree," he said, not really sure he was saying this right, but damn he wasn't sure squishing her like some monster in a Bugs Bunny cartoon and trying not to get snot in her hair from crying was the right answer either.
