enjoy~

they were sitting comfortably on their couch, watching some dramas while cuddling.

taehyung had his head resting on jeongguk's shoulder. they were enjoying each other's company.

time like this was something they both enjoyed so much. but neither one of them knew about what the others might think or feel. nor one of them dare to tell the others.

they watched a sad movie. jeongguk was in verge of crying, but he didn't cry. you know- to keep his image (?), meanwhile taehyung- well- he was a crying mess.

taehyung watched this kind of movie not so often, but he found the move more enjoyable this time. probably because he watched it with someone- someone he liked.

what?

someone he likes? he likes jeongguk? no way. there's no way for taehyung to fall for this boy.

or maybe there is?

jeongguk was now got use to taehyung fell asleep during the movie, drama, or even the game. he also used to lift taehyung up and carry him to his bed. it was his routine whenever they are doing something related to the couch and the tv.

just like this time, taehyung fell asleep. jeongguk tidied up whatever that wasn't in the place and put them back. he didn't forget to turn off the tv.

jeongguk picked and carried him. he placed taehyung gently on his bed and tucked him under his duvet.

he stared at the latter's beautiness for a while, caressing his perfectly sculpted face before he jumped to his own bed and drifted away.

jeongguk was not a heavy sleeper, nor a light sleeper. it depended on how tired he was or whenever he felt stressed, he would be a heavy sleeper.

and tonight, he was a light sleeper rather than the heavy one. he wasn't tired at all. not even school could make him tired.

he was sleeping peacefully until he heard someone screamed. the sound was too familiar to him to not recognize whose voice was that.

taehyung.

that was taehyung's scream. and cries.

jeongguk jolted and sat up immediately and ran to the bed beside his. he crouched down so that he was at the same level as taehyung's face.

"STOP IT, DAD!"

"taehyung!"

"DAD!"

"taehyung!!"

"HELP!"

"taehyung! hey, wake up!" jeongguk said, shaking taehyung's body a bit violently.

jeongguk kept shaking the screaming boy. taehyung couldn't seem to wake up from his nightmare and it worried jeongguk so much. jeongguk took the screaming boy and engulfed him in a warm hug.

he brought taehyung's head close to his chest.

jeongguk could clearly heard the latter's sob which getting calmer and calmer in his arm. he didn't even care if his t-shirt got soaked.

all he cared about was the boy in his arm.

they kept in that position for a bit longer until jeongguk could hear taehyung's breathing getting steadier than before.

he brushed taehyung's hair slowly in a calming manner, shushing him and telling him that everything was fine.

taehyung then jolted up and separated himself from the warm hug he was receiving, still shocked with what he had just dreamed about.

it was so long after he last dreamed about his family- about his abusing father to be exact.

the silence filled the air for a while. jeongguk thought that maybe taehyung needed time to relax a bit.

"hey, everything is fine now," jeongguk said after a while, taking taehyung's hand with his own.

taehyung didn't say anything. he just had his head hung low. he didn't know how to act or what to think after the nightmare he had.

he just wanted one thing for sure.

the feeling of security and safe he had just found from jeongguk.

he just wanted to be in jeongguk's arm.

"c-can you- can you,," taehyung muttered, stuttering.

"can I what, taehyung?" jeongguk asked in a most shooting and calming voice. as if he was talking to the most vulnerable thing that if he raised his voice it would easily break.

taehyung's heart clenched at the latter's concern towards him.

"do you want me to sleep with you tonight?" jeongguk continued asking.

taehyung couldn't seem to form a word. he just nodded his head slowly, muttering a soft 'yes please.'

jeongguk stood up. he took his pillow and bring it to taehyung's bed. he positioned himself after taehyung. he made sure taehyung was comfortable enough.

"um- taehyung?" jeongguk called.

taehyung lifted his head and looked into jeongguk's eyes in response.

"do you want me to cuddle you?" jeongguk asked him gently.

taehyung shyly nodded, not daring to look into jeongguk's eyes.

jeongguk shifted a bit then he brought taehyung's body closer to his by pulling his waist slowly. he put his arm around taehyung's waist loosely. taehyung also moved himself closer, finding a comfortable position in jeongguk's arm.

he brought his head to jeongguk's chest to find the warm and curled up in a ball. jeongguk cooed at the sight in front of him. he was sure that he would never get tired of this sight.

taehyung smiled, thinking about the position they were in. it somehow calmed taehyung down. he internally wished he could feel this warm and comfort he got from jeongguk sooner.

taehyung fell asleep faster than usual.

so was jeongguk.

they slept comfortably, safe and sound in each other's arm that night.
