Washing his hands, he came back and cleaned everything up. It was like nothing had ever happened to his hand at all. He was totally fine. Silvio smiled at him when he thanked him then shook his head.

"Thank me by letting me be there for you. That'll be enough for me."

Then he finished cleaning before coming back to sit down again. "So I could feel how tense you got when I touched you before. Is it okay if I touch you more often? Show you that it can be okay to have a friend have contact with you? It was something I did a lot with my family before I lost them. Didn't matter what gender we were, we were constantly having contact and cuddling close."
