Summary
She must think she’s hurting them, or possibly restricting airflow, because she suddenly tears away. Eyes wild and frantic. “Oh my God, I’m sorry.”
They shake their head, gasping in air. But it’s not because she’d been choking them. It wasn’t like that at all.
“Are you一” Her hands flit in front of them, scared to touch. “You okay?”
“Fine. You didn’t hurt me,” they manage, once proper oxygen is reinstated.
“Oh, okay. You made a sound like you might’ve been dying, so.” She laughs awkwardly, scratching through her thick hair. “Sorry. I’m not too good at this yet.”
“Being gentle?” they ask, half-teasing.
Susie’s gaze drops to the tile. “Having a friend.”
