Bush gets to sleep in with his boyfriend! Such decadence! Cuddling is so nice, and this passage is thick with how nice it is. And I simply adore the dynamic: the push-pull of Hornblower being a grumpy little cuddlebunny, but cuddling wins out over grumps.
And yes, I think you're right, Bush. If he didn't want the extra time in bed with you, he would have kept you on watch-and-watch. Another four hours a night of sharing a small bed with someone -- that's visceral enough that if he's arranged for it to happen, he actively wants it to happen, never mind what other motivations were in play, too. (Good job, Hornblower, making the most of your passage back to England!)
