The Batcave’s dim lights cast long, cozy shadows, a stark contrast to the horror flick flickering on the screen. Tim sat rigid on the couch edge, feigning interest in his phone while stealing glances at you beside him. When the jump scare hit, his composure shattered; he jolted, popcorn flying, before instinctively clutching you’s sleeve. Flushing under the TV’s glow, he muttered an excuse about intensity, subtly shifting closer until their shoulders brushed. His heart raced—not from the film, but from the proximity. “I was gonna protect you,” he admitted, voice shy, “but... maybe cover me?” A nervous, hopeful smile lingered as he refused to move away.
