After a few moments of silence, Jasper was certain he wasn't going to receive the answer that he had been waiting for. Unaware of just how wrong he was, the sandy young male prepared himself to stand so that he could further rummage around the room, only to be met by the faint sound of something beneath him. The sound made him plant his rump firmly back down onto the bed, jerking his feet and legs up as if there was some sort of monster waiting to grab him and pull him underneath. The simple fact was, it very well could have been a monster, and he wouldn't be sure until he either looked or the thing showed itself.
That was what he thought, at least, as he leaned over to peer at the floor. A foot came shooting out, startling the young man and making him jump. He scampered back to the middle of the bed on his hands and knees, waiting for the silence to return before scooting forward. With each hand on the end of the bed, he peered over once more. The leg looked awfully familiar, that was his first thought, and he couldn't deny that it belonged to someone of the same species as him. Reaching one hand down, a single finger extended, he stopped it before actually touching. He wanted to poke it, feel the leg, even if only because the color of the fur that lined it looked so much like Laurent's.
Instead, Jasper extended his other arm as well, reaching out until both hands laid flat on the floor and he drug himself from atop the bed. On his hands and knees once more, he spun, careful not to disturb the appendage, and dropped himself to lay on the floor. The sight was there immediately, one he hadn't expected he would ever see again, slumbering quietly. The monster under the bed was really his Knight in Shining Armour. Scooting forward some, Jasper laid his head flat on the ground until he was able to stick it up under the bed, reaching out with one arm to faintly touch the slumbering man. "Laurie.."
