[ He chuckles a bit at that, just the corner of his lips twitching upwards. ]
How, exactly? Gonna help me change into pajamas?
[ Just kidding. That'd probably veer into sexy territory way too fast. That said, he doesn't think for a second that either of them would have to sleep elsewhere. There's a big bed, why not share it? ]
Just stay put, I'll go get changed and join you. Can I borrow one of your shirts?
[ His head whips around at the idea of helping James out of his clothes. Because, yes, he'd love to help, absolutely, anytime. But his mind catches up a half-second later, realizing that James has actually no intention of sleeping elsewhere... ]
Ye- Yeah. Yeah, of course. It's- Top drawer.
[ He points over to a dresser, totally charmed over the idea of Jim wearing one of his shirts. And sleeping in his bed. Tonight will be a whole trial for Finn, but he's stupidly happy about it. ]
[ Admittedly, the thought of Finn helping him out of his clothes is incredibly appealing. But if they do that, there's no way any clothes are going back on him tonight, so. This is the better, smarter choice.
He wanders over to the dresser, quickly taking off his shirt on the way, then looking through Finn's clothes, picking out a shirt to change into. He doesn't take his time getting changed but it's not like he rushes through it either, and Finn is more than welcome to enjoy the view if he wants, especially as Jim takes off his trousers and it becomes clear that he's planning on just sleeping in his boxer briefs. It's not cold and he gets someone to cuddle up to, why bother with trousers? ]
Scoot a little for me, [ he nudges as he walks back to the bed, already tugging on the bed covers so he can pull them over them both. ]
[ Finn finds his eyes glued to Jim's body as soon as the shirt comes off, but he eventually remembers his manners and quickly looks away. But then Jim shucks the pants, too, and Finn can't not look.
He's so distracted by this moral dilemma, that he doesn't think to scooch over until Jim asks it of him. Other than starting a little, Finn moves out of the way with minimal distractions and delay. Not moving too far away, though, of course.
How he's going to sleep tonight is a mystery despite how tired he feels, but he's snuggled down into the bed when Jim pulls the blankets over them. Once he's gotten himself settled, too, Finn gives him a small, private, warm smile. ]
[ Honestly, if Finn didn't stare at least a little, Jim would have found it weird. As it is, he doesn't seem at all bothered by the attention, rather the opposite in fact, and he's smiling in near amusement while crawling under the covers next to Finn.
After some slight adjustments and they've both finally settled, Jim slides in even closer, then rests an arm loosely over Finn, leaning in for a quick, soft little kiss. ]
[ And just like that, Finn's back to bashful and blushing. Instead of ducking his face away this time, he helps to close the distance between them until they might as well be cuddling. He even thinks about responding with his own kiss, but that would probably get carried away really quickly.
So, he settles in, nestling himself beneath Jim's chin like they've done this a million times. In the morning, he'll overthink all of this, but he's going to enjoy the moment while it lasts. ]

Good. Great. Um-
[ But uh- Since he doesn't know how to ask if Jim would like to share his bed without coming off as desperate and/or creepy, he moves to get up. ]
I'll... help you get settled in.
