[With how careful Stahn is being, Leon doesn't shift again; he's firmly and soundly asleep, tucked as close to Stahn as before, and showing no signs of needing or wanting to move away from that comforting, enjoyable warmth.
It's really a wonderful night's sleep.
Leon can't remember the last time he thought that, really, upon waking up. He has a lot on his shoulders at all times, but especially now; he doesn't sleep to rest well, he sleeps so he can keep going. But when he languidly stirs a few contented hours later, it's feeling warm, safe and comfortable.
... Odd, really, that he feels so bizarrely satisfied.
It takes the events of the night before some time to work their way back to the front of his mind. Instead, the first hint that something is off are Stahn's gentle breaths--far, far too close to him. His eyes snap open at that, at which point he realizes that that would be because Stahn is far, far too close to him (or, more accurately he'll realize later, it's because Leon is the one who is tucked too close to Stahn), and that's when he immediately shifts to get away from Stahn.
Because he's not barnacled to him like he was before, Leon is able to pull away, but he managed to forget just how small the bed is; by moving that far away from Stahn that abruptly, Leon managed to tumble right out of the bed and onto the floor.
At least it saves Stahn the pain of a punch or worse, which Leon would have absolutely delivered if not for his sudden surprise at finding himself on the floor.

Ugh.
(It was a really nice moment while it lasted.)]
