On writing sexual tension
โน standing too close. likeย just barelyย not touching. why are their shoulders breathing on each other??
โน conversations that sound normal but feel like foreplay. โpass the saltโ has never been so loaded.
โน one of them says something flirty and the otherย freezesย for 0.2 seconds like โoh.โ
โน eyes dropping to lips and thenโback up.ย with effort.
โน holding eye contact just a little too long. like... are they gonna kiss or duel??
โน unintentional physical contact that lastsย one second too longย and now theyโre both broken
โน a hand on the small of the back.ย thatโs it.ย thatโs the tweet.
โน tension so thick that other characters start noticing like โhey are you two okay?โ (they are not)
โน โaccidentalโ sleepovers. โoh no thereโs only one bed.โ yeah. suuuure.
โน biting back a smile. biting back aย moan. biting anything really.
โน one of them walks away and the other has toย physically restrainย themselves from watching the hips
โน lots of sighing. frustrated sighs. horny sighs. โi want to kiss you but Iโm emotionally unavailableโ sighs.
