"Yes, it's s- . . . How long have you been listening?"

If Remus could laugh, he would be hysterical right now, seeing the look on Sleep's face. Jealousy was focusing on giving Emile the tour.

"J-Just now, I guess..."

Janus was trying not to laugh as well.

"...W-We can talk about this later..."

His face was a blushing mess.

"Y-Yeah, uh, yeah..."

Emile noticed for a split second how Sleep and Virgil were blushing over each other. Oh. Sleep liked someone else. That was cute... right? He'd gotten rather good over time at not letting negative emotions show, but he almost felt a bit... jealous...

Jealousy sensed it and took Emile's hand, pulling him closer to him, just a bit. He spoke softly enough that the others wouldn't hear.

"I promise you, that won't last long. He'll be in your arms soon enough. And, if you are really that concerned that he will stay with Virgil, we can make arrangements to make Sleep come to you. If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask me."

"That's a lie, dear. But alright."

He shrugged, letting go of Emile's hand.

"It really isn't..!"

It was. But Emile didn't know that yet.
