[Being told he's dear to him warms his heart, which shows on his face.]
No, I believe I must have missed him amid all of the lovely diversions catching my attention. [The kind of smile he flashes is the equivalent of a wink. After all, Huaisang was one of them!] Whatever the case, I would not want to step on anyone's toes, so do discuss it. I will still take advantage of the few nights I can get away with retreating to your lovely place.
[Huaisang smiles back, happy and fond, and leans in to kiss Ferdinand's cheek again.] Good. We shall have a lovely time. You can stay in my bed, or in the guest house and I can stay with you there or you can have the time alone. Whatever pleases you best. I'm just happy to have your company.
[He hugs his arms tight around Ferdinand again, nuzzling his cheek against Ferdinand's shoulder.]
[He nods down to kiss him atop his head, then wraps his free arm around him snugly to return his hug.] And I am happy to have yours.
[His arm stays there to keep Huaisang close, for however long he tolerates it. By this point, his heart has been lifted, and his hunger rears its head. He makes quick work of the remaining bun as a result, and with his other hand now free he enfolds that arm around his comforting friend and squeezes.]
Mm, I like hearing that. You're welcome to hold me whenever you'd like. [Huaisang snuggles close, happy to just remain like this for as long as Ferdinand wants. He's sad for them both that Hubert is gone, but he's happy to have Ferdinand's friendship and affection, and glad that he can offer his friend some comfort.]
