Personal Space (or lack thereof)
prompt: Hope not being able to say no to Henley because Henley knows exactly what makes Hope a softy
***
// There are a lot of things about Henley that turns Hope into a total softy, but there is one thing that she finds absolutely irresistible: the invasion of personal space
// Hope has always valued solitude; it wasn’t until she met Kelley that she realized that maybe sharing her bubble with someone else wasn’t too bad. Now that she’s met mini Kelley O’Hara, who also has no concept of personal space whatsoever, Hope can’t help but melt inside
// Henley is quickly learning what exactly earns her Mommy’s complete and undivided attention. All she needs to do to is softly tug on the bottom hem of Hope’s shirt. Or wrap her little arms around Hope’s waist. Or climb up beside Hope (or sometimes on top of her) and bury her little freckled face into the crook of Hope’s neck.
// No matter how hard Hope fights the little girl’s touch, she just can’t say no and ends up mesmerized by the widening hazel brown eyes staring back at her
// Kelley just shakes her head
