You were sat behind Jimin on your shared bed with your legs wrapped around his waist. Watching movies like this was a ritual for you. Both of you felt secure and happy in this position. Your head resting on his shoulder, kissing it occasionally while your arms were around him.
Tonight you decided to have a horror move marathon, for no particular reason and you both were paranoid and scared. Every jump scare you would hide your eyes behind him and tighten your arms around his torso.
After you decided to stop the horror movies and move on to something more mild, you could tell that Jimin was still frightened by his jumpy behavior at random sounds or when his breath would pick up.
You felt bad for insisting to watch scary movies when you knew he didn't like them. Each passing minute you grew guiltier and guiltier. You would kiss him every five minutes in hopes of making him feel better and distracted. It didn't work and that bothered you.
After minutes of storming up ideas of what to do, you decided on an almost motherly approach.
You started gently scratching his back. You started with your hands in a claw shape and moved across his back gently making zigzags. You felt him relax and you knew that this was the right choice.
You applied more pressure, but never sped up. "Only slow," you told yourself.
Eventually it progressed to both hands scratching small, slow circles on his back. He enjoyed this and his nerves eased especially when you moved one hand into his hair and played with it while you scratched his back.
Your hand was slowly going from flat to claw in his hair, massaging and gently scratching his scalp.
Jimin soon forgot his fears of being attacked by a random murderer and started to become sleepy as your hands scratched up and down his back.
You kissed behind his ear and whispered, asking Jimin if he would like to go bed. He sleepily nodded and you released him from your koala hug and let him lay down before grabbing his hand.
You rubbed your thumb over the top of his hand and watched him fall asleep before following in quick pursuit.
