“My goodness, Sir, your mind must be ‘absolutely filthy’, give how red you’re getting. I’ll keep that in mind for later, when I meet you in the bedroom.” This time, Izzy really did snort, turning to face the sink while he started rinsing their plates. “I’ll be up there in just a bit. Don’t worry, I’m sure I can find my way back.”

If anything, Toby’s face got redder, and he shook his head quickly. “Y-yeah, see you up there!” He said, deciding that maybe he’d stop being so red if he wasn’t standing here for a bit. So, Toby beat a hasty retreat, and went upstairs, where he located the sleeping bag... ...which he quickly discovered upon bringing it into his room that it hadn’t been stored properly, and was kind of caked in dust and ripped in a couple spots. “Oh no,” he muttered. “We can’t use this...” He rubbed his ear as he considered this. They didn’t have anything else on hand.

Just as diligently as he would have done at work, Izzy cleaned up the dishes used. Spotless and a little damp, he set them off in a drying rack before washing his hands on last time. While he wanted to shower, them cookies must have been loaded with more sugar than he thought cuz he could feel that crash coming hard. That sleeping bag was calling his name! By the time he made it upstairs, he was already hoping that bag was all set for him to use, yet it wasn’t, and Toby was standing there with some dusty mess. “Hey, you said you’d have the sleeping bag for me. What gives?”

“Oh!” Toby replied, turning to face Izzy. “Uhm, well, you see, this is the sleeping bag,” he gestured to it. “So, uh, I guess I don’t have one after all.” He shook his head. “You can use my bed,” he offered. “I’ll figure something out.”

“Ew, that’s the bag? Dude, what the heck?!” He wasn’t so much disappointed as he was grossed out. The very sight of the dust made his skin crawl. “Just share the bed with me, it’ll be fine! I got lots of siblings who do it all the time so I’m not bothered at all. Just... Just go throw that away and go wash your filthy hands!”

“Yeah, it’s...pretty bad,” Toby agreed, carefully scooping it up. He looked over at his bed. “It’ll...be pretty tight, but, uh, I guess that’ll work, yeah,” he agreed, nodding. It beat sleeping on the floor, definitely. “I’ll just, uh, get rid of this,” he said, shifting the mess. “And wash off the dust before I come back.” As he started to go, he paused, and nodded his head toward his dresser, “you can wear whatever out of there for sleeping.”

“Okay cool. I’ll take the side against the wall. I’d probably fall off otherwise.” While his bed wasn’t that small at home, he still had a habit of rolling all over the place. At least the kids who clammored around him sometimes worked well as anchors during the night. Now... What to wear? Once Toby left, he rummaged through his drawers, finally settling on a pair of boxers and a t-shirt that seemed faded and comfortable. ... Wearing someone else’s boxers wasn’t weird right? They were just shorts! And no stains to be seen! ... Whatever. Izzy flopped onto the bed, starring up at the ceiling while he waited for Toby’s return, eyes heavier than he though they’d be.

Toby took a few minutes to take care of the sleeping bag and clean himself up. By the time he came back, he was considerably less red in the face. When he came in, he saw Izzy...wearing his underwear. He hadn’t thought about that, and he turned a bit red once again, although the other boy clearly thought nothing of it, so he did his best to not think too much about it. ...But there was something very intimate about that... “You look ready for sleep,” he commented, and collected some clothes to wear to bed. He normally only wore boxers, but felt like a t-shirt would be in order tonight. He collected the stuff, and started to step outside again.

"With all that sugar and pizza and everything, how old I not be?" He had always been suceptible to crashes, and this time wasn't any different. Well, except for the fact that Toby was here. After shifting around to pull the sheets back, he got nice and cozy with the pillow, pressing his back up against the wall and giving Toby a sleepy smile. "Hurry up, Toby! Imma fall asleep without you!"

Toby nodded, and stepped out of his room briefly. Izzy may have been fine with it, but Toby didn’t feel quite right stripping for an audience. So he changed into his night clothes out of sight, and returned, wearing boxers and an old T, coincidentally almost exactly the same color arrangement as Izzy. He dumped his clothes in the hamper by his dresser, and sat down on the bed. He grinned at Izzy, perhaps a bit nervously, and said, “Okay, now I’m ready for bed.” Cautiously, he slid into place next to the other boy, and pulled the blankets up over both of them.

It wouldn’t ever makes sense what was so important about hiding when changing clothes. It wasn’t as if they had any different parts. Then again, he was just always open about those kinds of things and had very little shame. Once Toby was in bed with him, Izzy got just a little cozy, before giving that sneaking grin as always. In one swift movement, he grabbed Toby’s wrist and pulled him in for a nice, firm hug. “Thanks for today. It’s been fun. Lots of fun. Heck, I feel like I’m right at home here.”

Toby gasped in surprise as he was grabbed, but smiled nervously. “I-I’m glad,” he said, not making any effort to pull away. “I had fun too. You can come by any time.” He nodded at that. The fact that his heart was racing again meant that Toby was gonna have trouble sleeping for a bit...but he was decidedly pleased to be this close.

“Anytime you say? I’ll keep that in mind. You’ll have to come over to visit mine one of these days too. Not just the downstairs shop, but the upstairs too. You’ll love it, it alway smells like sweets that my sister bakes.” A yawn escaped his lips, and he reached over Toby to turn off the light on the night stand, before returning to his side of the bed. After a little bit of consideration, he puts his arm over Toby again, yawning once again. “Alright go to sleep Toby. I gotta go work tomorrow too, so i can’t be up all super late all willy nilly.”

“That’s a lot of working,” Toby observed. “I’d love to visit,” he said honestly. “Maybe some time after my birthday...” He found himself yawning as well. Maybe he would fall asleep pretty quick. “I’m sure I’ll sleep well tonight,” he said, leaving unsaid that he would surely have interesting dreams.

“That’s what happens when it’s a ‘family business’, but I can’t say I hate it..” Birthday, huh? He’d have to keep that in mind for the future. “You will, Huh? Why is that? Riding high on the waves of your victory and utter destruction of Kirby?”
