[Grey stops talking shortly after Manabu drifts off properly, vaguely recognizing the slow, even breathing as a sign that Manabu's no longer listening. Time for Grey himself to settle in.
Grey sleepily tells himself he is not going to wrap an arm around Manabu. Unless Manabu wakes up with a nightmare, of course. But he seems peaceful enough right now so it's not necessary.
But it's not bad for Grey to lie close, right? The bed's not that big. Manabu doesn't seem to mind sharing it, so it's not a big deal if Grey just lies with his side just touching Manabu. Or maybe just a bit closer... Like this, he can lightly feel and hear Manabu's breathing, breathe in his scent, and just generally be utterly aware of Manabu.
Which is very important if Manabu has a nightmare, of course.
Manabu...
This is maybe not the safest frame of mind for Grey to be letting himself fall asleep in. Not to say it's an unpleasant night. Grey sleeps deeply despite the rush from being so close to the man he's attracted to.
When morning comes and Grey feels the first stirrings of wakefulness, he's still lying close to Manabu. It's warm, and, at the moment, comfortable enough... Until he shifts and feels a strange tension in his hips.]
