His chuckling rumbles against Jean-Paul's ear before he takes a gentle little bite of the pointed top. "Love you too, darlin'," he murmurs like it's the worst kept secret ever.
"Speakin' of clothes. You or Kurt gonna help me figure out how to dress for this... wedding thing."
Jean-Paul whines, not having any words the second those teeth meet his ear. He hugs Logan tightly.
"I'd like that," he says." "Chrisse, that's soon. I'll have to coordinate wit' Kurt so we can make sure it's all decorated..." His mind is already trying to seize on details. "Ouais, yes, I'll dress you. You'll look gorgeous."
He sighs again. "It's not that I don't want to be there, I just... was trying to figure it all out," Jean-Paul finishes lamely. "Which is impossible. I do want to come back, I do. I'm just scared to."
"I know I'm a hypocrite to say it, Johnny. But you don't have to figure everything out alone, yuh know?" It's not just an invitation to come home when he wants to, but an invitation to say whatever's keeping him away.
When he says things like that it puts a little pang of fear in Logan chest. Not quite enough to inspire a fight or flight response, but enough to make Logan have to remind himself no one he's never held on to anyone he tried to hold too tightly.
Jean-Paul shrugs. "I don't know. To me, I feel the same, I feel like me. But we don't notice our own changes much, do we? So I worry I'll go home and the guys will... I guess think I'm different in a bad way."
The thought of showing someone you're not who they think you are conjures up a few recent memories still raw enough for Logan that he can't rush to placate those concerns.
With a sigh he squeezes the man protectively. "I know it's not easy to tell somebody you've changed. Or even that you're just... tryna be different... Give them some time to get to know you again. I'm pretty sure the guy we love is still right here."
"I am," Jean-Paul says. Even so, he wonders what little things he might do now that he never did before. "I am really stubborn, I can't have changed THAT much."
He hugs Logan tightly before he moves to disentangle himself.
"Let me tidy up and grab some stuff, ok? I'll come home wit' you."
He chuckles at that and makes a little show of pulling his mouth tightly shut as if refusing to be the one to say it.
"Really?" That wasn't how he thought this visit would end, but there's no hiding way it lights him up. "Course. Take your time. I mean it... all the time you need, darlin'."
It doesn't take him long to gather the things he wants to take back to the cabin. Although he could clean up his apartment very quickly indeed, he chooses to do it at a human pace to allow himself to settle into his decision. Soon enough he finds himself ready with his overnight bag.

He has to smile - he's being sniffed and it's weird that it feels so comfortable. "Okay, point. You're depraved, no wonder I love you."

"Nothing too fancy. I like suspenders," he mumbles. Clearly he's willing to trust them with his wardrobe. To a point.

The question though, leaves him planting a kiss on the man's head. "Naw," he murmurs. "I don't wanna keep you any place you don't wanna be."

"Alright," he says, resolved. "Take me home."
