[Souji makes a muffled little sound and nods, allowing himself to relax as Hijikata's fingers work their way through his hair. It's nice, makes him feel safe and cared for, as if it really is fine for him to be where he is.
Honestly, he's just embarrassing himself by getting this worked up, isn't he? It's not like Hijikata can't be used to people being attracted to him, and Souji is probably painfully obvious about it in the first place. He already knows about it, and he's been kind enough to ignore it so far, hasn't he?
Souji's shoulders slump a little bit. He feels foolish and dejected, which makes no sense at all. But maybe acting like there's some way for Hijikata not to have noticed was just his last way of pretending that maybe-
No. Not going there. He's being given so much affection, so much intimacy already, and he's happy about it. He doesn't need more. He breathes out slowly, nuzzling against Hijikata's wrist.]

Thank you. You're... always so patient with me.
