The best part of knowing that is she knows how to get around it. Learn from her example, because the situation will be reversed again someday far too soon.
First things first, she doesn't let go of him. Her hold is light, gentle, but persistent. He can get away if he really wants to, but... why would he want to? If he won't lean against her, she'll lean against his back, soft and warm, with her chin on his shoulder. "Please don't push us away, Jim. We love you. Try to breathe. Just breathe with me, okay? Nice slow breaths. In, and out. In, and out."
She's warned him she's stubborn, right? Because she is stubborn.
Awww :(
