Your relationship with Baxter is hard at times, since you hate being touched, more than Alastor does, which is surprising. 

At times it's hard though, because you never hold hands and don't give any physical contact. Baxter understands though, and you love him for that and his determination to stay with you through that struggle.

Lately though, with the help of Charlie, Baxter has been helping you with your phobia with physical therapy. You weren't fond of the idea at first, but he persuaded you, you wanted to enjoy hugs and hand holding.

Today was one of those therapy days, you and him were in your hotel room. You made sure to steady your breathing, because you were still nervous about this therapy thing. 

"Ready (Y/n)?" Baxter asked as he sat next to you close, but not touching. It took you a moment to respond, but you nodded.

"Yeah, I'm as ready as I'll ever be."

He then gently takes your hands into his, making you flinch a little. You were getting better with controlling yourself, but it was still a bit uncomfortable though. 

"Do you want to continue?" He asked you after a few minutes. 

"Yeah." You nodded and lied down on your bed, cautiously snuggling up to him. It took a moment to not to pull away instinctively.

Relaxing slowly, you let out a breath you were holding. Baxter slowly wrapped his arms around you protectively. You liked the feeling, even though some of your nerves were telling you to pull away. 

It was going to take a long time to get used to being touched, but the therapy was helping a lot, and you loved that Baxter was doing this for you. You both lied there till you fell asleep in his arms.
