'Come here,' Danny whines from over on the bed. You just got out the bathroom from a well needed shower. 'For what?' you ask him. Using a towel on your hair to dry it off a little bit more. 'Cuddles, I am touch starved!' His voice sounding even more whiny than before. He is on his side on the bed, facing you, with his arms wide open as if to invite you. You stand still, not knowing what to say. You have hugged before and sat close by, but never really cuddled. You have not been dating too long and have both been a little awkward with initiating physical contact. Seems like Danny is over that right now though. The longer you stay still and don't say anything, the more the pout on Danny's face seems to grow. 'I have never really cuddled before...' you finally tell him. You're nervous for what he is going to say, even though you know he is going to be nice about it and not judge you. 'That's ok, I will show you how to. Are you comfortable with sitting next to me?' he asks and sits up immediately and moves over a little so there is space for you to sit with him. 'Yeah. I don't mind all that, it's just... I have never cuddled before so I don't really know what I am doing.' You throw your towel in the hamper and close the bathroom door before going over to the bed. Not being able to stop smiling when you see Danny smiling back at you. He does look very comfortable to cuddle right now. He is wearing all black. Some big sweatpants and a very soft hoodie that you actually picked out for him. Happy that he likes it as much as you. And it really does come in handy when you cuddle, because it is so soft to touch. 

'Come sit next to me, baby,' Danny says and pats the bed, still smiling at you. He is trying to get you as comfortable with him as possible, but he is not going to hurry it if you are not up for it. 'Keep saying baby like that...' you mumble, more to yourself than him. He hears you and laughs, 'Like it?' he asks. You nod your head. 'I like your voice, of course I like it when you call me baby or other pet names,' you tell him. 'Sit down, hurry up.' He pats the bed next to him and only then do you realise you have been standing up the whole time. 'Give me my cuddles, I am touch starved.' You sit down on the bed, turn your face to look at him and wait. After what feels like a minute of slightly uncomfortable silence, you ask 'Do I just sit next to you?' Danny laughs again and shakes his head. 'You can also like sit on my lap, facing me or the TV. Could watch a series, to get you a little more used to it.' You nod your head and tap his leg. 'Give me some space then,' you tell him. He slides backwards to get his back again the headboard and moves his legs apart for you to sit in between. You move over to get between his legs, your back leaned against his chest. 'We still have to finish that newer anime I believe. Only two episodes left,' you tell him, 'but I do need to get up and get the remote then.' Danny sighs jokingly and lets you get up to grab the remote from the nightstand to your left. 'Now get back here, quickly,' he tells you, a smile on his face. 'Really are desperate to cuddle, huh?' Danny hums in responds. As soon as you sit back down, he wraps his arms around you. 

You turn the TV on and look for the anime you want to watch. 'Comfortable?' Danny asks as you press play. You nod your head and reply 'Yes, yes, I am. If I weren't I would have told you, dummy.' Dannys hums again. 'Wait, turn your head towards me a bit,' he asks you. You scrunch your eyebrows in confusion but comply anyway. As soon as your cheek is turned towards his face he leaves a few kisses there. 'Thank you,' Danny says. You laugh, 'Hm, thank you to.'
