"That was a cheesy line, even for you." She said and leaned one hand on the bed as support and used her other hand to push his hair out of his forehead while she gently placed hers on his, just like when they were younger. "You're still warm, are you sure you're feeling better?" She asked.
"Mhm," Owen answered, enjoying the feeling of her hand against his skin. "But my head doesn't hurt as much anymore."
"That's good to hear." She said and sat up, her hand leaving his face.
Owen didn't miss the way his chest constricted at the loss of contact.
"How'd you sleep last night? The chair didn't make your neck ache, did it?" He quickly brought up a small time topic to coupe with the loss.
"A bit." Leonica admitted, rubbing her neck. "But I'm fine, the pain will go away in a few minutes."
"Come here." Owen ordered and patted the bed.
"Huh? What's with the sudden order?"
"Lay on the bed. I'll rub your neck."
""You don't have to."
"I want to. I'm the one who's been causing you trouble since last night. So just this once, please, let me be useful."
Leonica sighed, knowing fully well that if she continued this way, neither of them were going to do anything eventful. "Alright." She gave in and sat on the bed, leaning forward and positioning her head right in front of his knees. "I'll start now." He warned, his hand finding it's way into her hair.
The feeling was strange.
Leonica relaxed against him, allowing herself to get lost in the feeling of his hand rubbing her neck.
"Leo." Owen called, his hand stilling against her neck.
