Fics like not you

The distance between them disappears in a single step, his hand coming up without hesitation. “Hey— it’s okay, I’ve got—” “You don’t have to do that!” Tim’s voice cuts through him. Dick freezes. For a second, he doesn’t move. Doesn’t pull back, doesn’t press forward, he just stops, caught in the moment as the words shake him harder than they should. You don’t have to do that. Not don’t touch me. Not that hurts. Not even stop. Something else. Dick’s brain scrambles to catch up, then it clicks, the interpretation sliding into place with a quiet, awful clarity. Oh. It’s not that he can’t. It’s that he doesn’t want— Dick pulls his hand back like he’s been burned. •···•···• Things haven’t been right between Tim and Dick for a while, and Dick is painfully aware of the fact that Tim doesn’t want Dick anywhere near him, so when he finds Tim hit with cuddle pollen, he freezes, because despite how desperately Dick wants to comfort his little brother, he won’t cross his boundaries. It only gets more complicated when next time, Dick gets hit with pollen, and Tim’s the one to find him.
