All she did was smile softly to him, uncrossing her legs and shifting to the side. She motioned for him to walk into her room, making space for him on the bed. She ran a hand down her face, pushing her hair back over her shoulders. It settled on her back, down to her waist as she waited for him to sit. After he did so she gave him a reassuring smile. “The number of times I’ve done this is endless, waiting up in trees and such tends to give some nasty kinks.” She kept her voice soft. It was far too late, and she was far too emotionally exhausted to raise her voice too many decibals higher.<br/><br/>She sat behind him on her knees, gently placing her hands against his shoulders. She knew he didn’t enjoy contact too much but she set it aside, just doing what she needed to in this moment. With her right hand on his right shoulder blade, she gently walked the fingers of her left hand down his spine from the base of his neck. She kept going until she felt him wince, and to ease that slight discomfort she ran her fingers over the spot. “How come you decided to come here, and not anywhere else?” She was just curios. She rubbed her hands gently, but hard enough, over the muscle that seemed to be giving him trouble. She couldn’t help but acknowledge how she actually liked the way his skin felt, it was smooth. But she shook her head and pushed such a thought aside. She looked down to him from where she sat behind him, leaning a little close so he could hear her, and vice versa as she dug her fingers into his  muscle.
