You didn't sleep a whole lot in that other world, then? Even demons still need to sleep, right?
[ She's doing her best not to look like she's flustered (she's not, it's hardly anything) in this position, and also not like she's tired (she is, but she wants to stay like this for a bit and let him talk). ]

Nah, I didn't.
I'd get a chance to rest, occasionally... There were these fountains through the Vortex World I could heal or relax at. But aside from little naps when I thought a place was safer, I didn't sleep long. It was just too dangerous.
[Naoki can distract himself when he talks to her, can ignore how his heart still pounds. And he can ignore her scent, definitely, surely (he can't).]

[Laughing, Naoki gives in to an urge, sliding his hand up her back, lifting it away so he can sweep his fingers lightly through her hair. It's fine, she already knows he likes her hair.]
I've been trying. I mean, I've already found the most comfortable place to.
[Hand moving from her hair, he taps his finger against her shoulder. Right. Here.]

I have something I need to tell someone.
But Hinata-kun said not to.
But I have to.
What should I do?
[Yang has apparently become Komaeda's go-to for girl talk advice.]

Guess there's no choice. I'll have to settle for right now until I save up.
[His hand tightens at her back and he leans in, tucking his chin over her shoulder, closer than before. He's not going to get any calmer, he reasons, this isn't because he likes her and wants to be closer or anything. But he can't act all weird or...
Realising he's trying to rationalise it to himself, he almost shakes his head, but just settles in instead.]

[ Okay. Okay, she's got this. Naoki is just moving in closer because he's had a rough night, she's a good friend he trusts, and it's not like they haven't hugged or been this close before. This is just like any situation with any other friend who needed some good old-fashioned closeness.
Except any other friend wasn't this hot and tattooed and shirtless and emotionally vulnerable at times in a way that kicked her in the chest (well, maybe there were a few of those) and this isn't working.
She'll care later. For now, Yang's tired, Naoki's close, and she sighs under her breath, her hair brushing against his cheek as she nestles closer. ]
Tonight's a freebie. One hour.

I wonder if that would work. I guess that wouldn't count as telling.
Though it's the sort of thing that's better for showing.

I don't think that will work.
It's on my CereVice. But...
[He switches to video now anyway, and OOPS somewhere in between switching to video, he accidentally winds up forward Yang an entire conversation in which Hinata breaks out the dorkiest cutest lovey dovey emojis.
What horrible luck, hitting the wrong button. Shucks.] Maybe video is a good idea.

[Naoki can feel his chest squeezing painfully (with affection, so much affection) when she nestles in after that sigh. He smiles softly somehow, though, turning his nose against her hair when it tickles his cheek.]
A freebie, huh... Lucky me.
[He closes his eyes.] I'll walk you home after that. [If he doesn't somehow doze off and sleep for more than an hour, at least.]

[Right??
Komaeda looks way too proud because Hinata is adorable. Painfully adorable. His cute dorky boyfriend.]
So even if I can't tell anyone, I couldn't not tell anyone.

[Naoki sighs as she strokes his head, settled by it even as he wonders if he'll be able to drop off just like that--]
Don't think you have to worry there.
[He says, in a soft voice. He's pretty sure there'll be no more nightmares tonight. Just a gut feeling, though.] ...You should sleep a little too.
