Author's Notes: Written as a late birthday present for verav and it fit into fanfic100 too so...
David has a thin scar around the knuckle of his thumb. It’s so strangely shaped that James wonders if maybe it had been done deliberately, but when he asks Dave says he had an accident slicing cheese. Sliced the skin almost completely off. “Bled like a pig,” he says and laughs. “Nearly gave mom a heart attack.”
James likes to run his own thumb over the scar, around and around in a tiny circle. He can’t really feel it but it’s still there and just knowing that sooths him. Just a tiny, almost invisible proof that David’s not completely perfect.
