WESTERGÄRD, HANS:

              he’s careful as he watches the other’s every reaction , his palms sweaty underneath his gloves . it’s odd how he still keens on wearing them — habit, he supposes — although it’s not quite the same anymore . his body hurts too much from life ; nothing is the same . hans shakes his head slowly, smiling a little through the darkness ,     ❛     i’m fine , draco . don’t be sorry .    ❜    he tugs one glove away and thumbs his naked fingers down draco’s strands of white hair , pushing them back . he wants to see the dilation in the other’s eyes : determined how scared the younger male truly is . at the demand , hans merely hesitates , as he usually does , before he pulls back , looking at the chair near the window — overlooking the bed .     ❛     i can sit there .    ❜

          he tenses when his hand touches his hair, but he doesn’t meet his eyes. instead, they travel to where hans was looking, & he just purses his lips.       ❛ you could just sit here, if you want to be comfortable or something. ❜       in all fairness, draco was more than tired and he was ready for bed, but there were the memories of hans DYING still replaying in his mind, & it would just come back every time he closed his eyes. he didn’t want him to be uncomfortable at the suggestion for hans to sleep in his bed, in all honesty, draco was uncomfortable with that idea. he didn’t LIKE being close to people, whether it be physically or emotionally. but for some reason, his friend seems to change that.       ❛ i understand if you don’t want to do that or think that is–––– wrong. i just want to know that you’re HERE. ❜

          he couldn’t believe the way that he was acting at the moment, as he just wanted hans to be WITH him. although that could sound wrong to many people that heard, & merlin, if his father had ever heard that come out of his mouth. he would probably send either him or hans away–––– he was supposed to be straight, obviously.       ❛ i don’t want you to be uncomfortable i just––– i was never good with sleeping ALONE. i haven’t slept in my own room in ages, you know, since hogwarts anyways. ❜       at least, he hasn’t slept in his room that he was comfortable in. he didn’t like his room at home, his house was DARK, & he hated it more than anything, if he was beign honest.
