He then lying on Jesus' breast
Being on the couch just before Jesus, with his back to him, he bends backwards, and falling on Jesus' breast, whispers in his ear:

and saith unto him, Lord, who is it?

John 13:25 In-Context

23 One disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, was near him at the table.
24 Simon Peter motioned to that disciple and said, "Ask Jesus whom he's talking about!"
25 Leaning close to Jesus, that disciple asked, "Lord, who is it?"
26 Jesus answered, "He's the one to whom I will give this piece of bread after I've dipped it in the sauce." So Jesus dipped the bread and gave it to Judas, son of Simon Iscariot.
27 Then, after Judas took the piece of bread, Satan entered him. So Jesus told him, "Hurry! Do what you have to do."
