"Uh huh," Klaus drawls out, nudging his shoulder back against Ben's, still feeling vaguely in awe when it connects without effort. "Don't think I forgot how you overstayed your welcome."
He's smiling, but then Ben's face drops and Klaus's brow furrows. It takes him a moment to puzzle it out, but he does. He knows Ben better than anyone in the world, after all. And maybe once he takes a moment to think about it, he definitely understands. Perhaps he isn't quite so ready to share Ben with the world just yet, either. What shine could Klaus hold when the whole world is suddenly at his fingertips?
"Okay, how about this," Klaus says easily, sidling up next to his brother and laying an arm across his back again, fingers curled around his shoulder as they walk together. "I won't tell anyone just yet. We can start with getting some waffles together, huh? Like actually together, not with you just across from me judging my syrup intake."
His smiles goes softer, and he ducks his head a little to meet Ben's gaze. "And then we'll go from there, okay?"
