Max: They’re those silly little things that he asks for late in the night, when he’s on the edge of sleep and sunk down deep inside his subconscious. Sometimes the things he gets you to swear to are simple, but other times they’re serious, little things that he doesn’t have the guts to say to you fully awake.
Tom: Sometimes he asks you to pinky swear when the moment has gotten too serious. He’ll grin goofily and stick his hand out, pinky slung out as he shoves it towards you. “Pinky swear?” he chuckles, tears building in his eyes as he watches you. And you oblige him because you understand, you get why he’s so guarded with his emotions.
Jay: They’re those things he asks for when he’s sad and has no one else by his side. While he struggles to resist the urge to pick up some form of alcohol, he fights back tears and holds one of your hands in his while extending the pinky of his other. “Pinky swear that you’re never going to leave me, no matter what.”
Siva: Sometimes he asks you to pinky swear when he wants you to know that he can be playful. Most of the time some sexual innuendo has passed his full lips and he’s grinning while his dark skin heats up with a fierce blush, lumbering closer towards you while hooking his pinky through yours, making you swear to act out his words later on.
Nathan: They’re those little things that he asks for as you two are panting beside each other, worn out and naked and covered in sweat as the tangled sheets barely cover an inch of skin. He grabs your pinky with his and, smiling lazily, says, “Pinky swear that you’ll do that to me more often.”
