You are loved.
CW: mental health, implied trauma, angst, self-worth issues Tags: talking, hurt/comfort 1.5k words Notes: a few things. I'm alive, hooray! I've had some insane writer's block, which hasn't been fun. That being said -- sometimes what might be written isn't "good", and sometimes just putting something into words is what makes it worth writing. At some point in my life, I was informed that you need to put something valuable into your writing to have others find value in it. A part of yourself or some other profound idea. I wrote this because yes, I love Sloan, and they're certainly a coping mechanism -- but also because I want anyone who reads this and understands to know that they aren't alone.
Pero
You feel like it always boils down to this — laying on the floor, eyes to the dancing lights of some cheap impulse-bought disco ball, hands inches from each other, body heat seeping into yours like water for a particularly dry plant. 
Despite that heat, their heat, you always wind up shivering. 
The body keeps score, you hear, but what wouldn’t you do for your body to forget?
You’d do a lot. 
An ungodly amount. 
But you, laying on the floor with a nonexistent chill making your diaphragm tremble like tectonic plates before an earthquake, can do nothing to forget. 
You have an awful memory — because you forget, but also because you tend to remember the worst.
And Sloan — because what could they do really? — lays down on your shitty, cheap carpeted floor with you. 
They don’t touch you. 
You don’t know if you’d let them, really — If you have it in you to share your body with even the gentlest, kindest soul you know. Skin on yours — you were so sick of the feeling. You know every twinge in your gut (the body keeps score—), even as they only love you, and you know every word you’d think to keep from shriveling up like a flower left to dry. 
“Do you want to talk about it?” Their voice is slow, patient. A practiced question you’d heard for years — back when it was much more forced, for no other reason than to simply get the words out. Feelings never came easy to Sloan — you’d been there for the worst of it.
Was this the worst of you? And how long had you asked yourself that? Does it get worse? When would it get better? Were you better at all?
The worst thing about your moments on the floor is that they were infinite — long, all-encompassing blips in time that felt like they’d span for eternity. There weren’t minutes or seconds, only every thought in your head that you pushed back while you were on your feet. You valued productivity.
“I don’t want to bother you,” and what a weak response. It always came to that — that you could know you wouldn’t bother them with your grief, but the feeling never let up. Knowing and believing were not inherently mutually inclusive factors.
Your chest trembles, and you try to both tense in rebuttal and force yourself to relax. You make it worse for your trouble. 
The brush of a pinky against yours, and the inherent twitch you give ceases the action all together. 
You don’t need to look at them to feel their eyes on you — Sloan was a starer. They tried not to be, tried to be more discreet as they got older, but they perceived so much (too much) with their eyes. Their work — relics, scripts, scholarship. You suppose you might as well be work — in a way. 
You could always feel their gaze. You weren’t someone to stare. Least of all to look at someone staring at you. Least of all — in this instance. 
Maybe you were selfish to be afraid you might see what you felt mirrored back at you. You were selfish to avoid the look your pain might bring to someone else — to avoid that you hurt people for no other reason than the fact they cared. Empathy — and you would not look at Sloan, too afraid to see proof of concept. 
Or maybe it wouldn’t be there — Sloan had gotten good at hiding how they were feeling. Their work, you knew — not the archaeology, but the other one. 
More reason you shouldn’t bother them. 
“Pero you know it doesn’t bother me.”
“Pero I think it will.”
“Pero,” you could hear the pressure in their voice — you’d known them too long for them to not get short with you when you were being difficult, “I don’t care if it does. Te quiero mucho.” Cheater. “dime qué pasa.”
Sloan could never not surprise you, and the softness in their voice does just that. But, because they truly have grown so much from the standoffish pre-teen you met so long ago, they backtrack gently (haltingly, a little awkward but sincere—), “Unless you don’t want to — seriously. Pero — you would for me, if it was,” you feel the slight breeze as they wave a hand in gesture, “cambiado.”
And that’s always the kicker — people always say treat others how you want to be treated. They never say let yourself be treated the way you treat others. For some, that could be karma — a kick to the gut, a cruel word, a sharp slap. For others — this. 
Let yourself be loved. 
You wonder a lot about… you don’t know. About whether or not you’re meant to be loved — as more than a friend or a body. You wonder often if there’s something in you, something you don’t see but you worry is there, that marks you as someone easy to change. To be loved is to be changed, but not all love should change you. You sometimes think the only way you’ve been loved is through changing — changing how you act, your boundaries, your time, your priorities. That people look at you and know you’ll change over and over again to be loved. 
A type of love that you don’t think you’ve felt for anyone, and that love is what you try your best to give over and over. If you do enough for someone, then you must love them and they must love you. And for some instances — it’s not even love. It’s just you being there. It’s you. Your body, your laugh, your smile — something about you that says that you can be used and you’ll think that is your fault.
 Maybe you’re proving everything right by questioning yourself at all. You want love — the type of love that shows that you are wanted for who you are and not who you could be or what you could give. You worry so much that you’ll want that so hard that you’ll give everything up again. That if no one — no one good at this point — has loved you like that then that must mean it’s not meant for you. 
You’re trying to not think that. That there is something in you that is lovable — maybe not in the way you want, but that you are lovable. Because you are loved. You are loved, you are loved, you are loved. But knowing something and believing something and feeling someone all operate on such different axes — you are waiting for the moment they intersect. X and y and z — and you don’t want someone else to make them touch, you want it to be yourself. You want to know, believe, and feel how you love yourself. 
You’re working on that. 
You close your eyes. 
You are loved — and there’s proof beside you. Proof in your phone, down the street, across the state, from graves and bodies eaten away by time, from memories and words, meals, gifts — you are loved. 
The only one who didn’t seem to love you was you — but you’re working on that. 
Your body shudders like thunder after lightning has struck, but no other movement has been made except the careful inhale and exhale of your lungs. 
You move your pinky, and when they take not even a second to link and squeeze, you could cry. 
You are loved.
“I just get afraid sometimes,” you whisper to the room, pretending that maybe they aren’t there to hear, “that…something might be wrong with me. I’m working on it though.”
You feel calluses on their finger — you don’t have to see the scars on their hands to know they’re there. 
Sloan is quiet, and you know their tactics enough to know that it’s them wanting you to speak more. 
Unfortunately — while Sloan was an unstoppable force, you were an unmovable object. They cave after silence sits for too long, “Quieres consejo, para ventilar, o comodidad?”
You don’t hesitate, “comfort.”
You are loved. 
The shift of their tough skin doesn’t make you ache — though your body shakes. You don’t feel the nausea quite as badly as you’d expected, or the urge to shrink away that you battle so often with calm down, it’s temporary. 
Their palm presses to yours and warm fingers knot with your own. 
“No creo que nada te esté pasando,” they say quietly, and you feel that gaze more than before. You don’t know what they see. “I think you’re —“ they stutter for a moment, words jumbling because Sloan has always battled for (as they quote) the right words, “amazing. You’re kind, smart, and — you’re funny. You make me happy — and I know you make other people happy. You might think there’s something wrong with you, but I don’t think anyone who knows you would agree with you. Que eres preciosa.”
You feel that heat near you. Truly. You feel how it sinks into your bones, the sweat of it on your skin. 
This — it was all proof of concept, the truest form of empathy. Just laying on your bedroom floor, everything else in the world forgotten except for the person beside you. 
“You’re lovely too.” 
Your voice cracks, but Sloan doesn’t say a word. You only feel that warmth, sinking much farther into you, as their hand tightens around yours.
