"No need to thank me...now pick your head up, you shouldn't be down for something you had no control of.."
"..."
He picked his head up, looking up at him with nervous eye. Deven noticed how he fidgeted, subconsiously reaching up and playing with his bangs a bit so that they covered his eyepatch and more of his face better.
He walked over to him and gently stroked the hair out of his face..resting his hand on his hand, observing his eyepatch..-
"...Now why do you need this patch,and do not worry, Like I said...I will not hurt you.."
"Hf-"
He flinched a bit at the human contact, like he wasn't used to it-or like he expected to get hit-
"I-I um...."
...He gently pulled him closer to his chest, and wrapped his arms around him, his hand holding the back of his head...and the other holding his waist
"...Your gonna tell me why you reacted like that...understood?"
He let out a small squeak at being held, eye wide
He waited a bit patiently...rubbing the back of his head gently
His hands pressed against his chest, slowly grabbing onto his shirt as he relaxed the teensiest bit. He slowly responded
"....I-I um...I-I guess I'm just not-really used to-affection...?"
"...Well then...I guess your just going to have to get used to it...don't cha?"
"....I-I don't-w-why are you...being so nice to me....."
