Kimblee is quick to return to playing with Isaac's hair; he's more than slightly amused, really, though he's at least trying not to be too obvious about it. He knows he's getting entirely too comfortable with this relationship; it can really only end badly from here. But for now, he's enjoying himself; he doesn't see why he shouldn't be allowed to seek out his own pleasure once in a while.

Even if it involves being more than slightly dishonest with his partner.

"Well, you're rather important to me, you know - perhaps I've come to love you as well."

The lie comes far too easily; he's done it before, when he's been reasonably partial to whomever he was seeing at the time, or otherwise had valid reason to not want to end it just yet. It'll ensure it will last a bit longer, at any rate, as it almost always does; he's reasonably sure that Isaac wants to hear something like that anyway, despite how much he says he doesn't require it.
