yeah. i want to actually cuddle you this time. wrap my arms around you while i sleep and feel your back against my chest as i breathe quietly into your ear.
idols want to be loved, don't they? so just let me have a night with you.
That description sounds surprisingly nice. Tender, intimate and relaxing. The last bit still sounds like a sleazy pick-up line, but that's probably just Leona's clumsy wording. And in any case, didn't he say last time that if he wanted to "sleep together" instead of sleep together, he'd come right out and say so? Hiyori wouldn't object to some more cuddling. There's just one problem that remains.
How on earth does he explain this to Jun-kun?
He didn't ask Jun's permission before cuddling Leona last time. But a whole night of cuddling? In someone else's bed, at that? He'd have to let Jun know. And that just sounds, well... it sounds suspicious! He and Jun always sleep in the same bed at night, so his presence would surely be missed. And how would he even explain himself? "I'm having a sleepover with Leona-kun"?? Sure, he could say that, but if it was the other way around, and Jun said he was off to go cuddle another man in his bed all night... well... he wouldn't be happy! He trusts Jun-kun, but he'd assume the other man in this scenario must be out to steal him!! And he'd be rather miffed that Jun was choosing to cuddle someone else at night when he could be cuddling him. He doesn't want to leave Jun feeling cold, dejected and jealous, so how does he resolve this?]
[ huh. well, that's certainly one way to get to a conclusion! in a way, while leona didn't plan on this being the response, it certainly is the most favorable result? it's the one that makes him smile the most if anything.
also... yeah, a sleepover would be pretty cute. not exactly leona's style but if it gets the job done, it gets the job done. ]
yeah? you need your security blanket with you? does that mean you'll get to be in the middle of the sandwich?
It's more that I'm worried Jun-kun will get jealous if I let another man hold me all night! Or he might start to feel lonely and left out. But if Jun-kun monopolizes Leona-kun who's monopolizing me, then that means Jun-kun gets to monopolize me too, so there should be no problem! Everyone wins! 🎉
[What kind of math is this?]
And I guess I could be in the middle? You wanted to hug me from behind, you said. So I guess if you do that and I hug Jun-kun, then it will be a sandwich! Just try not to crush me with your strong arms, alright?
[ the math kind of checks out? he can't say he isn't attracted to jun in the first place. hiyori isn't that bad looking either. one is handsome, one is cute. that's sort of where leona is when it comes to them... ]
maybe i want both of you so we'd have to change positions at some point no promises on crushing you though. i've been told i can be kind of rough.
[Right, right! Leona wants both of them! Not just Jun-kun!
But is it that kind of want? They're talking about cuddling, but a funny feeling starts to come over him (again). The phrasing is sort of, well... you know. It makes him remember an idea Weiss pitched to him, one that he rejected automatically at the time. But remembering it now gives him a squirmy sort of feeling...]
I'd prefer to be held gently, thanks!
[Even more suspicious phrasing, yay!]
But fine. If you want to cuddle Jun-kun, and Jun-kun also wants to cuddle you, then I guess I can loan him out to you. You know, just this one time!
[ hey, if one want leads to another... leona's not going to stop it from happening... ]
okay. gently then.
[ thank god they're not together right now because he is rolling his eyes. ]
look. i know you guys are together. if it makes you uncomfortable, then it makes you uncomfortable. so how about you and i cuddle first. then you'll know whether it's good enough for your jun AND you together.
[ is cuddling becoming a euphemism for something else. hm. ]
I don't want to leave Jun-kun alone at night and go off with someone else. And I'm sure Jun-kun feels the same. So if you want one of us, you'll just have to accept us both in your bed.
[It's like the saying they had back home: "two bodies, one soul." That was meant to describe Eve's approach to performing onstage, but it also describes their relationship here. They live together, love each other, and share everything. Their room, their bed, their secret hopes and dreams. Even Leona-kun!
... not that they were technically even talking about "that" sort of sharing!!]
[Thank goodness he's not still cursed to speak in innuendo so he doesn't have to comment on what else would be a tight squeeze.]
And if we need more leg room, we can just have you come to our room. You'd be the first to sleep over, which makes you special! You could even bring extra pillows!
But I'll ask Jun-kun, and then I guess we'll set a date!
then maybe i should go there you'd probably be more comfortable sleeping in your own bed sharing it with someone you haven't before
just let me know when you're feeling up for it otherwise i'll just keep loafing around and if you want a little pre-cuddle session, i'm always in the gardens one of them
[He's a bit distracted, wondering all sorts of things. Like how he'll pitch this to Jun. Or whether they should use this opportunity to finally collect a new card together.
He's so distracted that he temporarily forgot the reason he messages Leona in the first place. Whoops. But now he remembers!!]
I'll keep you updated on that! And in return, you can keep me updated on how things go with Leo-kun! I still think you might be a good fit, so it couldn't hurt to reach out to him, no?
