[With how quiet and still Manabu is, and for how long, Grey genuinely thinks Manabu has fallen asleep. He's usually pretty fidgety, after all.
Grey frankly envies his state of unconsciousness. At least if Grey were able to sleep properly, he wouldn't keep mentally replaying the kiss, and being tormented by the awareness of Manabu's proximity. He keeps alternating between thoughts of Manabu leaning into his touch, returning kisses and wagging his tail for Grey, and then the opposite, of Manabu flinching and trying to shove Grey off, crying out words like "Don't touch me!"
The thoughts make him sick to his stomach. He really is revolting, isn't he? An overgrown puppet that's forgotten its place....
He isn't expecting Manabu to speak up, and the sound of the other man's voice jars him out of his miserable reverie.]
-What?
[Grey shifts, bracing an arm underneath him as he lifts his head. What is he saying, about forgetting...?]
