     Jean stood awkwardly next to the door and called out to Marco,
"Hey... um dude this might sound a little weird but can I borrow some clothes? Mine are all... crusty and musty."
"Hm? Oh yeah yeah of course in sec!" Marco replied.
From where Jean was peeking out from the bathroom door he could see a light blush creeping onto Marcos face which in turn made him blush for some unknown reason, definitely not because Marco looked cute when he blushed, or really just always looked cute, nope not at all 100% not what's happening.
Marco, true to his word, came back only seconds later with a shirt and sweatpants and totally not avoiding eye contact, that cactus outside was just really interesting okay.
Jean quickly took the clothes and dressed himself  hoping he at least looked halfway decent.
He exited the bathroom to find Marco slowly dosing off on the couch head rolling back then snapping forward in an effort to stay awake. Jean didn't realize he had been watching for so long until Marco finally succumbed to slumber and he found himself walking up and sitting down right next to him.
After a while Jean started to get tired too and didn't notice when Marcos head fell sideways and rested on his shoulder mirroring what he had done to Marco while walking to the apartment last night.

When Jean woke up it was just a little past noon, at least according to the clock on the wall above the TV. He made to get up until he noticed with a sudden rush of calm the Marco was dead in the water asleep on his lap, long legs pulled only halfway onto the couch and head rested right on his thighs. The calmness soon left the building as Jeans sudden movements jarred Marco causing him to snort and adjust his position a bit an expression of content plastered onto his face.

Jean suddenly realized he may not be alive by the time his apartment is fixed, not if Marco keeps making his heart explode for totally unknown reasons.. okay maybe only a little unknown.
