@ethicsbutcher said : [ HIDE ] in order to hide receiver from people chasing them, sender pulls them into a tight hug while hiding their face from view. — to be held prompts.
the men have been tailing them for about three blocks now, and while will knows that him and the doctor could take them — there is a time and a place for everything. oppurtunities will present themselves when need be, and will isn’t really itching for a FIGHT right now. though what will isn’t expecting is hannibal to grab him by the arm and pull him around a corner, to press him to the wall of the building and hiding the two of them — before will can even begin to make a sound of PROTEST, leather glove hand is clamped over his mouth to shut him up.
the men walk by their hiding spot, and will can hear them CURSE at losing their targets — they seem to give up easily, and will can hear the crunch of the snow under their boots as they carry on. hannibal is so close to him, can feel the weight of the psychiatrist holding him to the wall ; will didn’t even realize he was so flustered until he could feel the heat of his cheeks keeping him warm.
once will can’t hear the footsteps of the men anymore, hands come up to SHOVE hannibal off of him — face twisted up into an unreadable expression as his gaze is adverted elsewhere. ❝ don’t ever do that shit again. ❞ will’s hands are shoved DEEP into the pockets of his jacket as he ducks past the psychiatrist, tries to will the warmth in his cheeks to die out as he steps back out from the alley - way. ❝ let’s just get back to the office. ❞
