It is a stark difference from his childhood, and the cruelty he faced at the hand of the one person who was supposed to care about him time and time again. It damaged him, and for a long time he felt like he was beyond repair, but that's changing now. Between Obi-Wan and his siblings, and his own desire to be better, he is changing.
"No, no, I know you wouldn't," Klaus gets out, feeling his eyes burn as Obi-Wan cups his cheek so tenderly. Sometimes he doesn't know what to do with all of this compassion, because it's something so new to him. It's something he so desperately needed as a child, but never received. But he has it now. "It's my own head that I'm afraid of, but I want to try."
He lifts his hand to rest it over Obi-Wan's on his cheek, feeling such gratitude for this man that for a moment all he can do is let out a shuddering breath. "I know that I can trust you. There is no one else that I would trust with this, Obi. Just you."
