Fluff attempt number 2

My hand slipped and there's a little angst but it's mostly more Dark/Chosen bonding, now with platonic (incest is not wincest) cuddles!

What did he do to him? What did he do to him? Dark asked herself that question over and over. Thanks goodness she was given knowledge of physical affection right off the bat, or else who knows what would've happened. She thankfully does know how to give affection through touch, and Chosen definitely needs it without a doubt. Although, she couldn't just hold him tight and not let go. His fight-or-flight response kicks in if she as much as touch his shoulder, even when she's right next to him. She would have to be very subtle about this. Should be easy now that they have a base.

"Dark, why is it so cold in here?"

"The A.C. is broke."

"Should it be hot then? Wait, WHERE ARE ALL THE CHAIRS IN THE LIVING ROOM?!"

"They all were broken except one. Hey do you wanna watch a movie?"

Subtle. Really subtle Dark. Chosen was utterly confused, but he didn't have anything better to do, so he agreed. They put on Harry Potter and sat down in the one chair Dark didn't lock in her room. Being pressed another person on one side of your body was an new experience for Chosen, but it felt strangely nice.

They were at the scene where Hagrid broke down the lighthouse door and that somehow jumpscared Chosen who jumped in the sat and pressed himself a little closer to Dark. Even though he got over the "scare" Chosen couldn't seem to bring himself to pull away from Dark, so he just leaned into Dark even more. "Is... is it alright if I hold you?" Dark asked. Chosen agreed. Dark gently wrapped her arms around Chosen. They did this for awhile until a small voice asked "... is... is this what affection feels like?" Chosen asked. "Yeah... did he ever treat you with any kindness?" Dark replied. Chosen stayed silent as Dark internally cursed. "Let's just enjoy the movie." Chosen said. Dark agreed but didn't let go.

Chosen slowly opened his eyes to a brightly lit room. They had stayed up until the end of the movie but fell asleep quickly after it finished. Chosen could still feel Dark who still has her arms around him on his back. This was affection. It felt great.
