Jesper, of course, notices the way his voice catches--he knows him too well to not pick up on it, and knows him well enough to not say a word about it besides. It's the knowing him, knowing the tells and the giveaways, that make this all the more difficult. Because Kaz doesn't have to say much of anything for Jesper to know what's behind any words that are given.
There's nothing he can do. He knew that even as he made his way here. Nothing to be done or said, nothing that can fix this, because for once? For once it's something unsolvable. And all he can offer is his own presence.
So, he moves. He pushes himself off of the edge he finds himself on and makes his way around to the other side of the bed. He doesn't say a word as he strips off his jacket and drapes it over some miscellaneous bit of furniture pressed up against the wall. There's a whisper of sheets as he settles himself fully on the other side, though he makes a point of maintaining a sliver of space between them. Kaz can close that if he chooses to.
"Then...I'm here. Long as you need me." At least he can offer that much.
