“Wait, don’t pull away…I want to hug you a bit longer.”
That was the first time you heard Tamaki speak without stuttering. To say you were caught off guard was an understatement – especially since he was currently hanging onto you for dear life. Your anxious boyfriend was trying his hardest to calm down after a panic attack instead of leaning against a wall and trying to ignore his troubles – a recent development, thanks to you.
“P-please”, he uncomfortably added when you didn’t reply. You smiled and shook your head – there was the stuttering again, but at least it was a start.
Gingerly, your arms left their perch around his waist and traveled up to his hair. Tamaki could feel his tension seep away as his dark tresses danced around your dainty fingers, your gentle humming slowly soothing his nerves. He markedly relaxed into the embrace and nuzzled further into the crook of your neck.
“…Thank you.”
“Anything for you, my love.”
