"U-uh... hey... I.. um... well I...."
And a flash from the dream plays through his mind. A blond man holding him off the ground by his neck. Questioning him about the location of the Tenth. He himself felt the agonizing pain, like his whole insides were on fire... but he still managed to spit in the man's face... then he blinked... and it was no longer Gamma holding him off the ground, but the angel...
He shuddered and shook his head trying to force the horrific memory away. His gaze went to the floor, he was embarrassed about the childlike request he was about to make... but he didn't want to be alone after that. He needed something to distract him from letting those thoughts and memories take over his head...
"I-I was wonderin' if I could spend the night with you again..."

Minus the flashback of the nightmare of course. That was really scary. It was not fair that Hayato had to go through this.
Though in a way it was Hayato's luck. Anything less and Ryuutaro might just have been pissed about being waken up in the middle of the night.
He pulled his yukata closer around his body... It was cold in the room after all. Then he nodded. What else could he do, when Hayato looked like this? There was no way he'd be sending him away.
"Of course you can...", Ryuutaro replied quietly, still sounding quite tired, but growing more awake steadily.
Reply
"Thanks. S-sorry for wakin' you up..."
And with another deep breath he can feel his heartbeat begin to calm a little.

"It's fine...", he smiled a bit, "I've gotten used to odd sleep patterns by now..."
Didn't make it any better though. His beauty sleep getting interrupted was not a good thing, but at least he had his make-up to cover up for any possible flaw in his flawless appearance.
Ryuutaro reached up to rearrange some of Hayato's strands of hair without really thinking much.
He was tired, Hayato was feeling bad and those just looked wrong and that meant he didn't think much, had to comfort him and had to fix that, too.
"Better you come here than sleeplessly walk around in such a stat

And maybe... just a bit... he moved his head so that it was just touching Ryuutaro's, and moved his hand so that it was brushing against his' boyfriend's. He loved that soft feeling of Ryuutaro's skin. Everything about him was just warm and gentle. He had really gotten a chance to experience it last week when Ryuutaro had let him rest against his chest. He could feel his heartbeat... the softness of his skin... he smiled a little to himself.
Though there was that little bit of his mind that just wandered of in stupid half-asleep thoughts... they were both fish last week... or part fish. That was kinda weird. Wouldn't that mean that they were naked too?
He was cuddled up to Ryuutaro compeletely naked and they slept like that.
And then Gokudera's thoughts get completely blundered together in some kind of mental keymash from the sheer awkward shock of it all. His face turns a DEEP shade of red, and he tenses up... but tries not to move or squirm unnecessarily... h-he didn't want to alert Ryuutaro... and silently prayed that he had already fallen back asleep...

But definitely not tired enough to fall right back asleep, after all there was now thoughts close to him in the room, not just the annoying distinct murmuring of the rest of the Manor residents.
And these thoughts specifically were extremely hard to ignore. If anything Ryuutaro was just much more awake now.
They were... well... Hayato was right. There was not much to be changed about that, but just the way Hayato was awkward about it alone totally colored off on Ryuutaro.
"Uhm... I assume, you are aware, that I can still hear you?", he asked silently after embarrassed clearing his throat.

And yeah that's some awkward squirming right there. Wh-what could he even SAY to that?! He didn't mean to think it! He couldn't help but be embarrassed about it! Ryuutaro was cute, and he had a nice body and- AND HE IS JUST DIGGING HIMSELF INTO A DEEPER HOLE! DAMMIT! C-can't he just... turn his brain off for a while?!
"S-s-sorry..."
Reply
Yes, this was definitely very, very awkward.
As flattering as it might be, partly, it didn't do anything to make Ryuutaro feel more comfortable again.
While he didn't feel exactly uncomfortable either, this was just so weird.
"... it's fine..."
He'd just be very thankful if Hayato's thoughts could switch topic now.

...but this whole mind reading thing was worrying him, what if he thought something wrong? Like he just had... well... that wasn't wrong... j-just embarrassing, and he didn't want to make his boyfriend uncomfortable.
He knew he already apologized... but he felt as though he should just do so again for being so... um... crass? In his thoughts.
...and probably keeping Ryuutaro awake with them. He needed to get back to sleep. He was warm, happy, and felt safe. Hayato took a deep breath and calmed down a bit. Of course he couldn't quite shake the memory of Ryuutaro holding him the previous week, but he was trying to focus on the fact that he got to fall asleep in someone's arms...and not being naked.
"Bueno notte amore."

The Italian words were something he chose to ignore, even though he knew their meaning thanks to mind-reading. It didn't really bother him when Hayato spoke his native language, he just didn't overly like it either.
So instead of replying, he just put his arm around Hayato softly, hoping he'd fall asleep soon. Same for himself, he'd woken up so much over the past minutes.

Luckily the rest of the night was peaceful, no nightmares, no embarrassing dreams.
Unluckily, right around the time morning hit, Gokudera had gotten a bit restless in his sleep and rolled so that he was nearly on top of Ryuutaro. He had his leg and his arm flung over the younger boy, and his face buried against his cheek.
Reply
And then he's just awake, realizing the position he was in, or rather Hayato was in.
Close.
Dangerously close.
It was not threatening, but... awkward. Ryuutaro might not feel extremely uncomfortable, but he still wanted to regain enough freedom to at least be able to move a bit.
Which proved to be a lot more difficult than he thought it would be. Hayato's body was just really difficult to move when the other boy was asleep and he did not want to wake him up either...
Reply
So while still very much asleep, Gokudera wraps his arm around the bundle tighter and snuggled his face into it.
Reply
While Ryuutaro was doubtlessly honoured to be object of these affections, he was beginning to feel quite trapped and that wasn't a good feeling.
There was a difference between allowing Hayato close and allowing Hayato to half-way strangle him.
Ryuutaro squirmed some more before finally giving up.
"Hayato...?", he asked softly, "Uhm..."
Reply
wordthings were happening. Nooo go away wordthings, he wanted to sleep.
He let out a little groan and his eyebrows knit together a bit... and he just buried his face into Ryuutaro neck.
Reply
Ryuutaro sighed.
Why wasn't there a guidebook on how to handle things like this and if there was, why didn't he ever read it?
It was useless though. He really wanted to be able to move again.
"Hayato..."
.... sorry, but wordthings were happening after all.
