Chapter 5 
 

As N snuggled further in the crook of Leo’s neck, hot breath caressing his skin in a teasing manner, Leo wasn’t sure if he was feeling relaxed anymore...However, all of 'this' was because of the koala stuck to him and he was dead-sure about it. Leo turned slightly and that gave N a bit more space to adjust himself and so he did, but now he pressed Leo's head against his chest one hand coming around his neck and the other reaching to caress his hair, Leo could already feel his stress lowering but he wasn’t gonna admit it...How can he? The mere fact that he was paying to be cuddled was shameful enough...I should really get a life, he thought at some point.
The session was supposed to last for about an hour but somehow the time period extended. At some forbidden point, Leo lowered his guard a bit too much and told N about his life, only a little, like "I used to play soccer, I was so good at it that I was aiming to be a pro but then, I injured myself, only because I didn’t want to lose, only because I couldn’t see that guy scoring and us losing, so I stopped him from scoring with all my might, knowing that the goal keeper won’t be able to stop him and I hurt myself, bad enough to never play soccer again...I...I but I k-knew I had to do something in life, so I chose...this.my current profession...far from 'that' world which was once my....ever..ythin..g" The stress was catching up to Leo. N was listening intently to this kitten, who was on the verge on tears but before he could say something to comfort the little guy (he was measuring by AGE) his voice trailed off and he noticed soft snores coming from the younger male. He smiled at the lovely sight. How adorable his face looked without frowning! He could wake up to this face every morning for the rest of his life and never complain...okay that was exaggerated but still! Oh well, one hour is almost up meaning it’s time for me to go...Geez, we only got to cuddle for like what? 15 minutes? Most people woul
