Terrence was absolutely correct about him not being the touching type with relative strangers, as the moment he'd noticed him extending a hand towards him he'd visibly tensed, his heart pretty much leaping to his throat. It wasn't that he didn't want to be touched, the opposite really he supposed, he could admit to himself he was quite touch starved. But a stranger reaching to touch him well...it brought up bad memories and immediately had him on the edge. He could remember a time this wasn't so but...well since the, incident...things had been like this.

"I don't think I could in this environment I'm afraid, but...I...uh...appreciate the offer."

Because yeah there was no way he was going to be able to fall asleep anywhere else but his own apartment, or where he was staying now if it was firmly locked up, especially with so many strangers around.
