Did You Know?
If he says “I just got out of something,” prepare for emotionally complex cuddles.
You told him about something you lost. A person, a version of yourself — you weren’t even sure. He didn’t fill the silence after. He just blinked slow, looked into the camera, and said, “You still carry it. I can feel it from here.”
You started to cry — just a little, just enough to hate yourself for it. He didn’t flinch. Didn’t rush to say “It’s okay.” He just looked at you like nothing about you needed to be fixed.
You were halfway through a joke when you saw the way he was looking at you. Not laughing. Just… watching. Like he couldn’t believe you were real. Like he’d been waiting for that exact version of you to show up all along.
He never asked what you were wearing. Just what kind of touch made you feel safe.
He invited you over to “watch something.” In Blacksburg, the something is usually the ceiling.
He said he’s “working on himself” — but somehow has time to reply instantly when you post a story in Blacksburg.
