[All of Leon's words make sense to him but yet he still can't help but feel kind of sad that they have to make this choice between the two. Their conversation with rude had made him hopeful that he could still find love in a world like this, he thought it would be even easier here but maybe he was wrong.]
No it's okay. I get it I think. I don't think I could do the benefits part really. I don't want things to be meaningless. I spent so many years not telling people how much I loved them or what they meant to me but I see it now and I don't want to waste something so intimate just to fulfill a task, even if it gets me in trouble.
[The kiss to his cheek doesn't really help but he does keep his faded smile up and doesn't go back to holding Leon either but he also doesn't move him from his lap.]
You can stay here if you like. I won't do anything I promise but could you maybe pass me the bowl of chips over there?
