Steve decided not to answer her question, letting it stand as rhetorical; his answer wasn't something she seemed willing to accept - that she didn't have to do anything to deserve him, he'd love her regardless - so he let it go.
He couldn't stop the small huff of laughter at her sudden yawn, though. "Well. I say it's Christmas, we've already opened presents; let's take a nap." He didn't need any more sleep, and might stay awake even if he laid for hours, now that his body was alert, but he wouldn't have suggested Rogue take a nap without him, even if he thought she'd agree. Which he knew she wouldn't.
