I literally sobbed into their shoulder and couldn’t even explain why. It wasn’t sad crying, it was like… release? My body just did it without permission. They held me tighter and I swear I felt their heartbeat sync with mine. The whole world just stopped existing for a moment. I’ve been in relationships before where hugs were just hugs, you know? Even with people I genuinely cared about. But with my tf, there was this sense that we were both suspended in this bubble where nothing else mattered. Like we could’ve stayed there forever and neither of us would’ve pulled away first.
That feeling stays with you. That complete reluctance to let go, that perfect fit that made everything else fade into the background. Even when we’re not together, if I focus, I can feel the echo of their arms around me, so I guess that’s the telepathic touch.
