[ It's the kiss that awakens him once more - eyes blinking open slowly but surely. Mikleo might not sleep, but he's never quite been a morning person. Though, somehow - it's that feel of warmth on hair that awakens him just enough to finally be awake for the morning. ]
... Good morning. [ He blinks a bit before realizing just where he was. Had they both not moved all night? ]
[ Sorey is too relaxed, already near to dozing all over again when he hears his best friend's voice. ]
Morning, Mikleo.
[ There's a muted sort of excitement to his tone that tells just how happy he is to wake to find Mikleo nestled so close to him. Honestly, it's kind of a wonder that the seraph hasn't pulled back yet... But, since he hasn't, Sorey chances a brief, loving card of fingers through pale hair. ]
[ Mikleo's cheeks flush ever so slightly at how close they are - even more so at the movement of hands moving through hair. Though... it is nice-- his eyes dart away for a moment. He doesn't move away, however. ]
... I slept fine. [ He says softly. More than fine. He slept well. In fact, he knows he could sleep longer if he really wanted to. ]
[ Sorey slept like a rock and he’s not ashamed to admit it. ]
I guess you were right -- I must’ve needed it.
[ That, or he was just too comfortable to stay awake, which is also highly plausible. Still, he chuckles somewhat and glances elsewhere briefly before turning his eyes back to Mikleo’s face. ]
Thanks for staying with me, by the way. I think having you here helped.
[ Helped both of us, he means, but won’t say as much. ]
[ For a moment, Mikleo wants to reach out to Sorey - to brush his hair behind his ear and card his hand through hair just as Sorey was. However, he stops himself short. ]
... If I hadn't slept here, you probably would have read all night. [ He says softly. ] But... I didn't mind it. [ Not at all. He'd be perfectly fine with sleeping here another night, too. ]

How'd you sleep?

Hey! You don't know that!
[ Yes he does.
A pause, long enough to let all that slip away. ]
I'm glad. [ He swallows. ]
So, if you didn't mind it... would you want to, maybe... do it again?

[ Honestly, they might have had different houses at home, but doing this doesn't feel all that bad, either. In fact, it's... rather nice. ]
no subject
Yeah. [ A small pause. ] I guess it isn’t exactly something new for us, is it?
[ But it feels new. And waking up next to -- no, curled around -- Mikleo like he did? Now that’s something he thinks he might never tire of. ]
no subject
[ He's sure that Sorey knows exactly what he means. ]
no subject
[ And something inside him does an excited little flutter at the next piece, which he can’t bring him to say aloud:
You feel it too?
But it’s much too soon for talk like that. Mikleo will withdraw from it, and that’s the last thing he wants. ]

Come on. You should eat something.
