Wonho's POV:

I open my eyes, it's still dark in the room. My back hurts, seems like I slept in the worst position ever. I move a little trying to fond a better position. The moment I turn around, I hold my breath and my eyes widen.

Hyejin?!

I look around, this is definitely not my room. Then my gaze turns back to Hyejin. As my eyes have now gotten used to the darkness in the room, I can recognize her beautiful features.

Her face seems relaxed, actually so much that her mouth is open. I grin to myself analyzing the silly looking expression while she's asleep.

Suddenly, she starts moving, her face now even closer to mine than before.

Panic builds itself up and my cheeks start burning. How could I even fall asleep here in first place. The last thing I remember was coming into her room to check on her and tuck her in if needed.

As slowly and carefully as I can, I try to move out of the bed. I sit up but something holds me back.

"Hyung, don't leave me." Hyejin mumbles in her sleep furrowing her eyebrows.

No, I can't. It'd be wrong of me to stay with her. I didn't even ask for her consent. Nope, I can't do this to her. She's probably just dreaming.

I stand up hesitantly.

"Please." She pulls my hoodie "Hoseok hyung." She furrows her eyebrows again and starts breathing heavier and struggles for air, like she always does when she's stressed or scared.

"Hyejin!" I whisper, trying to wake her from her nightmare. "Hyejin, wake up. It's just a dream."

"Hyung!" she huffs out of breath her eyes wide opened, a single tear flowing down her cheek.

"Shh- You're safe now. Don't panic." I gently pull her into my arms stroking her hair. Hyejin snuggles up to me, making me blush even harder than I did a few minutes ago. Not only that but also making my heart start racing like crazy.

"I don't want to go back to sleep." She mumbles "Can't we stay like this?"

"Do you... want me to sleep with you." I clear my throat a little flustered "I mean sleep is important, you shouldn't stay awake the whole night. We have a lot of practice and you need-"

"Yes, please." Hyejin cuts me off mid sentence.

"What?" I reply a little confused, did she just agree?

"You just asked me, hyung." She lets out a small laugh "I think... I'd be able to sleep better when you're with me." Hyejin shyly starts playing with the cords of my hoodie. I think my heart's gonna explode if she keeps being this adorable.

"Then, come here!" I quickly lay down and open my arms waiting for her to rest between them. She shoots me a quick smile and rests her head on my chest. I hope she doesn't hear my heart racing like that.

I close my eyes trying to calm my heart. I shouldn't be feeling like this. I can't, it would only cause trouble and pain.

However, I decide to push all useless negative thoughts away for now, instead I want to enjoy this precious moments with Hyejin resting in my arms.
