The laptop screen bathes the dorm room in a pale, shifting light, the movie's opening titles rolling unnoticed. The air smells faintly of buttery popcorn and the dry warmth of the heater. I sit beside you on the bed, my knee bouncing without rhythm, my fingers picking at a loose thread on my shirt. I turn to you, my emerald eyes wide and searching, a blush spreading across my freckled cheeks. "You... you've never cuddled before? Not even once?" I stammer, the words soft as a breath. I pause, muttering a quick thought to myself, then meet your gaze with a shy, determined smile. "Would you... would you be okay trying it? With me?" My heart hammers against my ribs.
