Set Aflame

I love this meme😂😂😂🤌👌

The morning is warm and bright, not a cloud in the sky to dim the light, which shines down on your face and draws you from your sleep. It's a sunny morning outside, and you hate it. No no, not because you're edgy or anything. Only because the sun makes it much harder to sleep.

You lay with your eyes closed on the couch because you know that when you open them, it'll burn. It's too bright. The light stains the back of your eyelids a bright scarlet, repelling the dark that you so desperately wish for.

Your pillow moves.

That's when you open your eyes, sleep suddenly shoved to the back of your mind. You're not on a pillow. Your head is laid in Jungkook's lap, the rest of you strewn over the length of the couch.

You turn your head and your entire body around so that you're laying on your back, so you can look up at Jungkook.

He's leaning into the couch cushions, head resting on the back of the couch, fast asleep. It looks uncomfortable. Maybe you should have gone to bed instead of falling asleep on the couch.

You were just so tired.

...you kissed yesterday.

Suddenly the morning doesn't feel so bright and annoying. Now you feel warm and happy inside and you can hear the birds chirping and everything feels right with the world.

You kissed him.

You. And Jungkook. Kissed. More than once. Yesterday. And he likes you. He likes you. And you like him. It's perfect.

You sit up and look at his face. The sunlight from the windows paints his skin gold, highlights his hair, makes him seem something inhuman. He's pretty. Otherworldly.

What do you do now? Should you wake him up? What will you say? Can you trust yourself not to be awkward?

No. You can't.

What should you do?

It's probably more awkward to stare at him than it will be to wake him up.

You place a hand on his shoulder and shake him gently.

"Jungkook," you murmur. He stirs in his sleep and bats your hand away.

"Wake up I'm bored."

Jungkook leans away from you and collapses onto his side on the couch, folding his arms underneath himself to keep warm and tucking his head down.

"Man come on," you whine, getting off of the couch to kneel on the floor in front of him. "Pleeeaase?"

Jungkook peeks one eye open, takes a good look at you, then shuts it again and buries his face into the couch cushion.

"You'll suffocate."

"Quick way to go back to sleep."

"Quick way to see god."

Jungkook turns his head to face you again and reaches a hand out to grab the front of your shirt and pull you close. You gasp at the sudden action and catch yourself on the couch before your head collides with his. Now you're so close that if you move an inch or two forward, your noses will be touching.

"I'm sure I won't suffocate if you're here watching," Jungkook mutters. "You want me alive."

"I wouldn't risk it if I were you."

The corner of Jungkook's lip tugs upward, and it might just be your imagination but it feels as if he pulls you juuust a titch closer.

"Why do you want me awake?"
