"All right. Thank you, dear..." and maybe the endearment slipped out without him thinking too much about it. Xander wouldn't have time to think about it afterwards either, however, because as soon as Viktor meandered off, exhaustion overtook him, and despite his valiant efforts, Xander fell asleep.
When Viktor returned, the doctor unconsciously reacted, hand reaching for him the moment he finished cleaning him off.
Calling him dear, immediately falling asleep, reaching out for him... He is so adorable. Viktor gazes at him for another moment before putting the cloth on the nightstand and turning out the light. He wraps himself again in Xander, sighing with contentment.
Before falling asleep, Viktor's hand glides slowly over Xander's bad hip and leg, channeling healing into it. It then presses gently into his back, to send some to his spine and lungs for good measure. Hopefully, that will help him sleep more deeply and make him less sore and tired tomorrow. It serves to completely exhaust Viktor now, as well, and he soon slips into a deep slumber.
