Chills went down Lucas's spine when Skye touched his neck, but he kept quiet. Honestly, being touched still made him anxious, but he was trying to get over it for Skye.

Skye had his arms loosely around the other's waist, and his chest against the other's back.
(Sorry got distracted)
Just stay calm… He doesn't want to hurt you. Being confined like this was making him feel nervous. However, he just stared at the fire to keep himself grounded.
"Are you okay?" Asked Skye, noting the fact that his thought patterns had sped up, and he had subconsciously tensed.
(Skye can read thoughts, but he won't unless he has permission, or the people around him know. He can however feel how people think, whether its fast or slow or panicked or scared,)
Lucas nodded. "I-I'm fine…" He could feel his heart pounding in his neck, and his ears were ringing.
(Oof so he'll always know when Lucas is lying about being fine XD)
(It only works with specific thoughts, like when you talk to yourself, he can get a vague feeling, but unless he's actually trying then there's no point.)
"Lucas" his tone held concern, and he loosened his grip.
"…Yes?" Lucas asked quietly, avoiding eye contact.
"Please tell me if I make you uncomfortable" he said softly.
"W-Well… it's… I-I just get a little nervous when I'm… uh… c-confined…?" Lucas replied weakly, still not able to meet Skye's eyes. "Y-You know… because of my dad and all…"
Skye pulled back a bit more, not wanting to make the other uncomfortable. "Sorry…" he murmured.
"N-No! It's okay, really! I'm trying to get myself used to it, is all…"
"I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable" he said softly, finally noting that Mar had gone hunting again.
"Honestly, it's fine Skye." Lucas smiled softly. "I can get a bit nervous at first because of bad memories, but you're helping me get more comfortable with it."
Skye hummed thoughtfully, "If you say so…"
"I-I guess just… be mindful that you don't restrain me too much or I might get anxious."
Skye nodded, reaching out to hug him again.
Lucas leaned into Skye, closing his eyes. He cleared his mind so he wouldn't be thinking about his father, which worked fairly well.
Skye hugged him gently, making sure his grip wasn't too tight as he buried his face in the other's shoulder again.
I'll just have to convince myself it's safe… Lucas trembled slightly, trying to clear his mind again. Not thinking was his best strategy right now.
Skye let his arms drop, hoping to make the other feel more comfortable, though he didn't want to lose the other's scent.
Lucas kept his hands in his lap. Part of him wanted to hold onto Skye, but the other was terrified. He had to fight against the anxiety in hopes that he might get over this fear of his.
