He lifts my face, pressing his lips against mine, my eyes instantly closing as he continues. I moan as he deepens the kiss, my hands raise only to freeze in place. He then starts backing up, keeping our lips connected. He spins us both around, until my back lands on the couch, as he crawls on top of me. I lift my arms to touch his face, only for it to wrap around his neck, we continue for a few more minutes until he separates. I breath heavy breaths, as he does the same. 

"We shouldn't....it's not our place." Leon mutters, he backs away, and relaxes his breathing. I then prop my body up with my arms.

"You didn't think about before you decided to kiss me?" I state annoyed, I proceed to sit up my body, making us close again. "Well, awkward timing, but might as well sleep." I click my tongue and hop off the couch. 

"Why don't we sleep in the same bed?" I turn around and tilt my head, seeing his amused face.

"Tempting, but who will make the first move, you or me? Exactly." I spin around and raise my hand, waving as I enter my room. I shut the door, pressing my back against it, I look up and cover my face with my hands.

I tease him, only for him to tease me back. I go over to my bed and lay down, pull the covers over myself. The plan won't follow through, I have to think of something, if anything goes flipside. He's not gonna like what I have in mind, but as long I protect them, then everything will be fine. I close my eyes clutching the blanket, feeling safe for the first time in years. An hour passes and my body pushes me to wake up. 

I lift the covers, dragging my body out. I slowly open my bedroom door, seeing it dark, my eyes adjust and I make my way to the balcony. I gently slide the glass door, and see a fence surrounding it. I walk through feeling the cold air hit me, I lean my body on the fence, staring at the night sky. I sigh and feel my hand slip on the wood, I flinch and turn my hand, seeing a cut on the palm. It slowly heals as I pick out the little splinters from it, I stop seeing it fully recovered. 

I decide to walk back inside, shutting the glass door gently. I go over to the couch and lay down, using the pillow for my head, as I clutch one in my arms. I shake my head, sitting up again, I snap my head seeing the kitchen light turn on. Leon walks out, and sits beside me, no words exchanged, he leaned my head on his shoulder. He wraps a arm around me, allowing me to close my eyes. He rubs my shoulder, leaning his head on mine, I open my eyes.

"Can't sleep either?" I ask, he chuckles in his throat.

"Sleep is something, I don't do most days." I slowly sit up, finding the shutter remote, click the button, exposing the light sunlight. 

"Glad it's something we both have in common." I jokingly say, I turn back to him, as he slowly leans in. Our lips connect, he pushes my hair back as we continue to kiss. "Stop teasing, it'll get you nowhere." I say, separating from him. "I saw a hot tub outside, unless you would wanna go there." He gives me a stern look, I smirk and stand up, stretching. "Fine fine, I'm going to take a nap, hoping to get some sleep."

I walk into my room and instantly go into my bed, I lay myself down and close my eyes. I snuggle up, until I hear footsteps. I decide to turn my head, only to feel Leon grab my torso, lying down next to me. I ignore it as he pulls me close, knowing he's trying to sleep too.
