I'm fine if I can fool myself tonight

Joseph ate quietly, watching Leo as he did so.

"And Cody's hanging around him anyway?" Seth asked. "...why?"

Leo glanced over almost shyly at him.

"I don't know..." Jay sighed. "Guess we're lucky Brett has been busy lately."

"Yes?" Joseph said, smiling when he noticed.

"Would he be around Ted though if Brett wasn't busy...?"

Leo blushed, "Nothing...." He looked back at his plate, "The food is good."


"I don't know..." Jay answered,

"Oh..." Joseph said before chuckling. "Uh, thank you? I don't really cook that often..."

Seth frowned, slowly shaking his head, not sure what to think about it.

After going to get a drink, Cody had found himself walking with Ted back to his office, too busy talking with Ted like they'd often done before the boss had first changed. They'd ended up on one of the couches in the room and now Cody was sitting there watching Ted quietly, the conversation having eventually trailed off.

"Oh... Well its still pretty good..."

Jay just hugged him and curled close.

Ted smiled softly as he watched Cody, he had missed the quiet moments like this. Before everything had changed between them.

"Thanks." Joseph chuckled, shaking his head at him.

Seth smiled a little, hugging Jay as tight as he was able to, leaning his head against Jay's.

Cody was going to say something to him, but decided not to, liking the quiet. He hesitated before shifting, lying curled up on the couch beside Ted.

Leo finished his food, hoping he hide the blush.

Jay smiled and relaxed against Seth.

Ted smiled as he watched, half reaching his hand out to him.

Joseph smiled at him before quietly finishing his own food.

Seth genlty kissed his cheek before closing his eyes, still needing to rest.

Cody hesitated before slowly reaching his own hand out to Ted's.

Leo smiled before putting his plate in the sink.

Jay lead him back to the couch.

Ted smiled softly as he gently took his hand.

Joseph stayed sitting, watching him with a worried look.

"Thanks..." Seth said quietly, slowly sitting down.

Cody gave a small smile, gently squeezing his hand.

Leo started to wash his dish out, before glancing back and seeing the look. "Is something wrong?"

"Your welcome." Jay said as he sat by the couch next to him.

Ted squeezed his hand back.

"That depends..." Joseph said slowly, frowning, hesitating before continuing. "...do you remember last night at all?"

Seth sighed quietly, carefully moving to lie back down.

Cody smiled shyly, lying there looking up at Ted.

"Yeah of course i remember last night." Leo said his as he put the dish down.

Ted started to lean in.

"All of it...?" Joseph asked curiously.

Cody had a confused look on his face as he watched him, not sure what Ted was doing.

Leo nodded almost shyly, "Yeah i remember all of it."

Ted kissed Cody's forehead.

Joseph nodded before slowly getting up to go over to Leo.

Cody blushed slightly and smiled up at him before sitting up.

Leo looked up at him as he walked over.

Ted smiled gently, truely happy.

"Come here..." Joseph said softly, slowly pulling him into a hug.

"What's that look for?" Cody asked quietly.

Leo curled close, relaxing into the hug.

Ted looked away, "Nothing.."

"I didn't scare you at all, did I...?"

"You sure?" Cody asked, still watching him.

Leo shook his head, "No you didn't scare me.."

Ted nodded silently as he leaned back again.

"Good." Joseph smiled, kissing his head.

Cody watched him quietly, hesitating before shyly hugging him.

Leo smiled and curled closer, enjoying the moment.

Ted carefully hugged him back.

"I'm sorry you had to deal with that guy..." Joseph said softly.

"...I missed this." Cody quietly said.
