HE DOES GROCERY SHOPPING IF YOUโRE TOO STRESSED.. but not in a โugh, fine Iโll goโ way. no, this man is walking out the door with a list you scribbled and texting you stuff like โdo you want the strawberry yogurt or the peach? i forgot which oneโs your favorite :(โ
HAND-HOLDING IS HIS FAVORITE THING EVER.. he knows youโre shy about PDA, so he never forces it, but when you do reach for his hand, oh, he cherishes it. heโll squeeze your fingers gently, rubbing his thumb over your knuckles, completely focused on you.
LOVES HEARING YOU TALK ABOUT THE THINGS YOU LOVE.. even if youโre shy, when you finally start opening up about something youโre passionate about, sam is so happy. heโll listen intently, nodding along, asking questions, just completely mesmerized by how cute you look when you get excited.
SAM READS TO YOU.. out loud. youโre laying in bed, curled up under a blanket, and heโs got a book in one hand, your hand in the other. he has the most soothing voice ever and every few lines heโll glance over at you with the softest smile like, โstill with me, sweetheart?โ
LOVES IT WHEN YOU GET SLEEPY AND CLINGY.. if you ever get too tired to keep up your usual shyness and just snuggle into him, sam is in heaven. heโll wrap you up in his arms, stroking your hair, whispering, โyou can fall asleep, sweetheart. iโm not going anywhere.โ
HE KEEPS A LITTLE MENTAL LIST OF THINGS THAT MAKE YOU ANXIOUS.. crowds, loud places, random new people. he notices and makes plans around it. if youโre ever somewhere you donโt like, heโll quietly lean over and whisper, โwant to head out, babe?โ and if you nod? heโs already guiding you out like a prince in plaid.
HE LEGIT BRAGS ABOUT YOU IN PRIVATE.. if heโs talking to dean or someone he trusts, he gets this dreamy little smile and is like, โsheโs shy, yeahโฆ but sheโs got the biggest heart. smartest girl iโve ever met.โ heโs so down BAD.
WHEN YOUโRE OVERWHELMED, HE GIVES YOU HIS HOODIE.. and i mean, immediately. youโre not even asking, he just sees you getting overwhelmed and wordlessly tugs it off, wraps it around you, and kisses your hair. now you smell like him and feel safe.
SAM IS OBSESSED WITH YOUR VOICE WHEN YOU TALK JUST TO HIM.. you might be quiet around others, but when itโs just the two of you? when youโre cuddling and whispering things only he gets to hear? he treasures it. heโll literally say, โi love your voice. itโs so peaceful.โ
HE NOTICES EVERY TINY CHANGE IN YOUR MOOD.. you donโt even have to say anything; he can just tell. heโll come up behind you, wrap his arms around your waist, rest his chin on your shoulder and softly ask, โwhatโs going on in that pretty little head of yours?โ
HE HAS A BABY VOICE, JUST FOR YOU.. not like silly baby talk, but that extra affectionate tone that only comes out when heโs holding you close or waking you up in the morning. โcโmon, sweetheartโฆ time to get up. i made your tea.โ like PLEASE heโs your emotional support giant.
HEโS SO GENTLE WHEN YOUโRE UPSET.. if somethingโs bothering you, heโll never push you to talk, but heโll always make sure you know heโs there. heโll rub slow circles on your back, murmur soothing words, and just be there until youโre ready to open up.
SAM LOVES WHEN YOU PLAY WITH HIS HAIR.. youโre shy about touching him, but the first time you nervously threaded your fingers through his hair, sam melted. he closed his eyes, leaned into your touch, and let out the softest sigh. now he begs for it. โcโmere, baby. Just for a minute.โ
YOU HAVE A SAFE WORD FOR SOCIAL EXITS.. sam came up with it. like if youโre somewhere thatโs draining you, all you have to do is say the word (maybe something dumb and cute like โmoose tracksโ) and heโll immediately get you out, no questions.
HE WRITES YOU NOTES.. little sticky notes with stuff like โdrink water today, babe <3โ or โi miss you, even if youโre just in the next roomโ and sticks them where youโll find them. your journal, your laptop, the fridge, your pillow, everywhere.
HE FINDS YOUR AWKWARDNESS SO HOT.. when you try to be flirty but your voice shakes, or you avoid eye contact after saying something bold? sam is grinning so hard. heโll bite his lip and softly say, โthat was really cute. keep going.โ and youโre immediately done for.
IF YOU CRY, HEโS IN FULL ON SOFT MODE.. no panic, no โdonโt cryโ BS. he just holds you close, rocks you gently, and says stuff like, โlet it out, sweetheart. iโm right here. iโm not going anywhere.โ literal human comfort blanket.
HE NEEDS A KISS BEFORE BED.. even if itโs just a shy little peck. and if youโre being all bashful and hiding your face under the covers, heโll laugh softly and coax you out with kisses to your hands. โdonโt hide that pretty face, baby.โ
HE BUYS YOU BOOKS THAT REMIND HIM OF YOU.. the titles are always something cheesy like โquiet is beautifulโ or just some cheesy romance novel with a blushing heroine. he always scribbles a note inside like โsaw this and thought of you. youโre my favorite.โ
HE LIVES FOR THE LATE NIGHT CONVOS.. youโre in bed, half-asleep, and you whisper something like โdo you think the stars look different in heaven?โ and this man is suddenly wide awake and in full philosophical mode, holding you and telling you what he thinks while stroking your arm.
HE TOTALLY PICKS UP ON YOUR SOCIAL ANXIETY AND SUBTLY HELPS YOU OUT.. if youโre in a conversation and get flustered, sam will gently step in without making it obvious. heโll steer the conversation smoothly so you donโt feel pressured to talk too much, all while giving you reassuring little touches, like a hand on your back.
SAM OFFERS YOU HIS JACKET WITHOUT YOU ASKING.. cold? you get the jacket. nervous? you get the jacket. just existing in the world? guess what, youโre getting the damn jacket. itโs like a hug from him, and you know he gets a little weak seeing you wrapped up in it.
HE NEVER LETS YOU DOUBT HOW MUCH HE WANTS YOU.. youโre quiet and might have moments of thinking youโre too awkward or not enough. sam sees it immediately and pulls you into the warmest hug, whispering, โyouโre everything iโve ever wanted, sweetheart. donโt ever think youโre not.โ
ADORES THE WAY YOU TUCK YOURSELF INTO HIS SIDE.. like a little shy koala. if you ever burrow into him, face in his chest, holding onto his flannel? heโs DONE. heโll just wrap you up and murmur, โgod, i love you so much.โ
