Mick is nothing if not a man of his word. He's always been that way in all the time Leonard has known him. Sometimes things didn't pan out, but he never broke a promise if there was any chance he could keep it. Leonard never expected this to be different.
Sometimes, though, a person can be driven by something wholly subconscious, and while he sleeps, that is exactly what happens to Leonard that night. He starts on his own sidr of the bed, close enough his presence is still obvious but certsinly not touching by any means. But as the night draws on, and he's taken by sleep, he curls closer against Mick's side, fingers splayed lazily against his chest, an underlying need to somehow let him know that this is not changing everything between them, that he is still, and would always be, Mick's.
