Leon's heart began pounding out of his chest. Matthew was kissing him. The person he had a crush on was actually kissing him.
It was never this easy to find someone who liked you back home in Texas, he thought, but that thought was soon tossed from his mind as he decided to kiss back.
They eventually separated their lips, and while Leon sat, dumbfounded, Matt just smiled. "What? No response?"
Leon blushed, "I-It's just...h-how did you know-"
"You said you enjoyed the contact at the pool, and it wasn't hard to notice you looking at me a lot. Do the math."
Leon gulped. He knew his actions would come back to bite him in the ass later, but this wasn't quite what he was expecting. Leon didn't quite have a response, so he instead kissed the wolf's cheek. "...I like you a lot..."
"It was a little obvious." Matt laughed softly. "But, I like you too."
Leon moved his hand so that instead of Matt's hand simply laying on his, they were holding hands properly, fingers locked.
"Um...do you wanna...spend the night at my place?"
Leon's muzzle formed a grin. "Of course I want to. Anything over staying another night in that hotel room."
"Good. It's really lonely in that house by myself."
"Aw, poor thing." Leon laughed. "We can go and pick my stuff up from the hotel and I can check out; I can just stay at your place, if that's fine? I barely have enough money to stay another week in that place anyway."
"Yeah. I was wondering if you'd ever run out of money."
"What, you thought I was a fountain of euros?"
"It'd be nice."
"Okay, I suppose it would. Now shut up and watch the movie, hehe."

"You sure about this?"
"Well, you could always just sleep in the guest bedroom, which hasn't been cleaned in forever, and the bed is busted."
"Okay, it just seems a bit rushed..."
Matt rolled his eyes as he took off his shirt. "Just get in bed already."
Leon blushed and lied in bed as well, both of their bare upper bodes touching. Matt wrapped an arm around Leon and nuzzled his neck. "Love you..."
Leon smiled and cuddled closer to Matt, wrapping his tail around Matt's leg. "Love you too, Matt."
