[ laurence can't help but laugh at that, because even if it is baseless, he absolutely agrees. surely it was a great day for everyone, but they're allowed to have a bias. not everyone here has someone they'd want to spend the night with or wake up to, anyway, and isn't that something to treasure while they can? ]

Yeah, but in a good way.

[ like after a long, satisfying run that makes him feel like collapsing after while his muscles sing with the exertion. it's a similar kind of feeling here, layered with the affection and joy of sharing it with someone else, in a way that no one else may ever know. (he hopes? the alternative isn't something he wants to consider.)

with chrono settled, he loosens his hold just enough so they can both shift comfortably if they need to, without quite letting go. ]

So're you. [ after a moment, he adds sleepily, ] Could probably use a bigger bed next time, though.

Definitely a good way.

[ lying together like this he can't see laurence laugh, and even the sound of it is a little drowsily muffled by now, but he can feel the reverberation of it through where he's draped over his chest clear as anything. another sensation he'd like to feel more of, in the future, for a long time. when they meet again, with more opportunities to just spend time together in peace like this.

on that note. a bigger bed, huh... chrono breathes a puff of a laugh, a bare incline of an agreeing nod to his head. it was cozy like this, after the kind of trial run last sunday, but nevertheless toeing the line of cramped. his bed back home wasn't much better, time for an upgrade...? well, maybe they could get their own place sometime... that'd be nice... ah, he's getting ahead of himself. dreams that were already lined up for the night, apparently. ]

Mhmm. I'll keep that in mind for next time.

[ there he goes, thinking too much again. but laurence is a little too sleepy to be cognizant of it; all that's on his mind right now is how much he doesn't want to leave this spot, soaking up all these good feelings with the guy he likes too much to put into words. what happens after they leave - if they really do meet again - is too alien a concept for him to even consider, anyway. ]

Something else to look forward to, huh. [ never really had that before, aside from a race or two. ] Good. Can't wait.

Me too.

[ it's okay. this kind of overthinking isn't bad at all, the conceptualising of more pleasant things. plans that might someday be possibilities. a future he truly desires, even. a gentle current to lead him out to the sea of dreams for the night.

so his arm shifts, a light squeeze around laurence's chest with the very last of his energy. the tiniest awareness of how their emotions settle into each other, how fond he feels. it'll be a good night's sleep. the best he's had here. ]

G'night, Laurence.

[ somehow, even as tired and half-asleep as he is, the gesture and accompanying fondness still make his ears flush a little pink. he's really not used to such open affection - but it's comforting nonetheless, especially now. he kind of doesn't want to let go, so he squeezes a little in turn with a soft exhale. ]

Night, Chrono.

[ mumbled, halfway gone already, he shifts just enough to nuzzle into chrono's hair. it feels nice, falling asleep here - maybe it'll be just as nice to wake up next to him, come morning. ]
