He leans back as Kevin takes his own hit, letting the drugs loosen his limbs, and settle anything bothering him. He doesn't blame anyone for wanting to use this stuff to disappear, if he had more free time, he'd probably spend most of it high -- maybe that's why his parents only let him engage with Kevin. More controlled that way.]
