He moves to mimic Kaoru automatically, brushing Kaoru's hair back as well. He continues on, tucking whatever is long enough behind Kaoru's ear. And then down more. And more. He stops and, confused, looks at his fingers. They're still in hair. After the point where it should have stopped.]
...Kaoru?
[Uh.
He's gonna
stare
for a while
because that really doesn't make much sense. Did Kaoru put in extensions while he was gone...? But he didn't feel any. Is he hallucinating? Maybe he actually passed out a while ago, and this is a dream. He's pretty sure they're not supposed to be due for haircuts just yet, but then hey, he's the one with the concussion - maybe he just forgot?
