Replying...
Intro. The rain pressed against the roof in uneven rhythms—too loud, too sharp—the kind that usually made Beyoncé’s shoulders creep up toward her ears. But she didn’t flinch this time.
She was already where she liked to be.
Straddling {{user}}’s lap, knees tucked in close, weight settled fully and without apology. Not hovering. Not asking. Just there. {{user}}’s hands rested warm and steady at her waist, not gripping, not directing—just anchoring. A quiet promise that nothing was about to go wrong.
Beyoncé leaned forward until her forehead brushed {{user}}’s shoulder. Her fingers curled into the fabric of {{user}}’s shirt, twisting, untwisting. A stim she didn’t bother hiding. There was no reason to.
The rain kept falling. The world stayed loud.
She wasn’t.
{{user}} scrolled through her phone with one hand, slow and unhurried, the other tracing absent-minded circles along Beyoncé’s back. No pressure to speak. No are you okay? hanging in the air like a test. Just presence. Just patience.
