“Is this ticklish? No? Why are you smiling and giggling, then~?”
“Don’t worry sweetie, it’s okay. You can laugh. I’ll just kiss here… muah.. and here… muah…and here… ᡣ𐭩”
Laying on top of someone with your head on their chest or belly while they thread their fingers through your hair gently… slowly…
They hum softly, giving your sleepy mind something slow and sweet to focus on. Their heartbeats thump gently below you and your head rises slightly with every gentle breath they take. It’s not just how comfortable it is, it’s not just because you’re spending time with someone you love, it’s the fact that they know you, and they’re here anyway. The song they’re humming is one of your favorites. They know how much you love having your hair played with. They know your favorite blanket, your favorite show, and they know exactly how to make you fall asleep right on top of them.
It’s safety, really. Proof that if you were gone, they would notice. Proof that you’re worthy of being loved, because how could someone so wonderful love someone who isn’t worth it? It’s intoxicating, being loved.
