FLUFF PLEASE! anything that’s got to do with his younger self being a support system for the reader is appreciated 😮💨😮💨
Tysm for your patience, anon 🩷 I hope I did him justice.
Actions always speak louder than words. When he first notices your off days, he doesn't say much. He'll take a mental note and study your body language briefly to decipher it for himself.
He won't push you to talk, he never does. Instead, he'll be by your side. You often walk side by side down the halls or on the way home together, if your route allows it.
"Hm? What's this?"
You nudged the earbud toward him again, "Just listen."
His eyes lingered on it for a moment, studying its cleanliness. Finally, he grabbed it then placed it in his ear. His shoulders relaxed as he listened to the music.
"This is a good one."
A soft heat crept onto his cheeks when he saw the corner of your lip turn upward.
Eventually, his backpack becomes less of his own anda shared space for the two of you. He starts carrying your favorite snacks/drinks, silently cursing himself when they dare to ruin his homework.
One day, he finds himself listening to some band you put him on to. Then he goes down a rabbit hole and compiles a list of songs he thinks you'd like. He chickens out, shoving it in the crevice of his desk at home.
It's not until he sees you crying the next day that he decides to be bold and give it to you, sheepishly admitting "I thought you might like it."
The sleeve of your jacket burned your tender skin as you wiped your runny nose for the seventeenth time. He managed to talk you down but your nose was still runny.
"What?"
When you looked up at him, he cast his eyes on the bleachers nearby. His hand still holding the playlist, "Take it."
You blinked away tears as you reached for it. His hazel eyes narrowed slightly at the brief feel of your fingertips against his.
He never thought seriously about hanging out with you outside of school until you offered. Nervous was an understatement. A torrent of emotions were surging through him but when it came down to it, he felt calm with you.
It wasn't long until he became accustomed to the sound of your voice and your sheer prescence. Yes, he was always there on your bad days. Eager and ready to offer support -- and even advice, if you asked for it -- but he liked your other days too.
Your good days, boring days, average days, what-is-life days, I-can't-stop-laughing days. All of it. So it wasn't a surprise that he hardly left your side when graduation came. He didn't want to let you go. In a way, you became his support system too.
What would life be like without you?
A few afterthoughts I'm having after posting this a minute ago {I kid you not}.
Don't expect physical comfort/affection. Especially, not at first. If anything, he'll hug you or pat your back when you cry or have an exceptionally rough day. Maybe as your friendship develops, this will change.
He listens. He doesn't talk much. He's patient and he's waiting for you to open up, if you choose to do so.
Often he'll ask: "What do you need?" or "Do you want advice or should I listen?" Whatever you need/want, he's usually willing to get you. If it won't help the situation, he'll explain that then try to help another way.
You could name the most ridiculous thing you'd want him to do and he'd consider doing it. He won't admit it at first but he may come around if you try hard enough.
