[When she says it like that, of course it sounds scandalous! And his face immediately goes panic-stricken and flushes red.]

I-I mean...! You just...you looked comfortable...like you could sleep just fine right here! And I would be okay with it! I mean, I wouldn't mind sleeping on the couch...! I even have some clothes you can wear if you don't want to sleep in your dress...!

[Wait, that's worse!]

O-Or you can sleep in the bed and I'll sleep on the couch! Or in the other room! Anywhere's fine! I— ...hnff...

[He drags a hand down his face as he grows more and more red. Why was he like this? Why couldn't he just say what he wants or means? Why couldn't that mask of confidence he always wore just be his real face? Why did he have to revert to that shy, stupid child at the worst possible times.]

[He takes a deep, frustrated breath, and clamps his eyes shut.]


L-Look...! I'm obviously interested in you physically! There isn't a single thing about you that I don't find insanely attractive and I've never had these feelings before so I'm terrible at not sounding like an idiot! So of course I'd be happy if things went that far but...!

...You just looked so...content. I've never seen you like that! But I also know you're far too polite to just ask to stay over so I wanted to let you know I'd love to spend the night with you! I mean, let's face it...if you went home, I'd just be up all night thinking about you. If you're here then...

[Gods why was this so embarrassing? He's starting to stumble on words.]

Th-Then I could...see your face...a-as much as I wanted. And make sure you were always happy and content a-and...

...W-Waking up next to you...I couldn't think of a better way to start a day...s-so...

[Well, she wanted him to admit all of that before, right? Well...there it is and then some.]

[He shifts awkwardly beneath her and he looks like he might try and get up after that. After all, he feels like he just made a fool out of himself with that admission! He's gonna be thought of as weird or a creep for sure!]


I-I'm... [And here comes the apology.]
