Step by Step

Chapter 2

You're trying to sleep, thanking all the gods that Jonghyun has two beds because you wouldn't be fine without him, not at all. You're starting to feel safe around him, thinking that the fact he was right by your side makes you feel protected and that if the thieves come back, you'll be fine.

But as said, you were trying to sleep. Trying. His room was too cold for you, for every normal person, to be honest. It was april but it was still so cold. The more the night fell, the colder it got. Jonghyun was only with a summer blanket, with feet and arms out. While you were grinding your teeth with your warm winter blanket.

He listened you moving in the bed non-stop and decided to take action.

"Can't sleep?"

"How the fuck do you sleep in here, my friend?" - Oh you were mad. - "It's cold as fuck and you barely covered. Where's the heater?"

"It's on the top of the wardrobe but it's not working tho."

"What? And you're just fine with that?"

"Yeah, I don't need any heater" - He smiled a little bit. You didn't see it in full hd since it was too dark, but you knew he was smiling. - "And if I turn it on, I won't be able to sleep because I'll be too hot."

"You must be joking." - He wasn't.

"Why would I be?" - He laughed as if the thing you said had offended him. - "I'm being pretty serious right now. I have it because my mom bought me but I gave it to Minki and now it's ruined."

"Well, we need a solution here, JR!" - You were trying to think of something, trying to not move much, but the only thing that came to your mind was coming back to Minhyun's room and that wasn't a good idea at the moment. - "Do you have more blankets?"

"Nah" - He lied.

You were thinking about getting all the blankets in the house that you could and suddenly he jumped in your bed.

"The solution is here!" - He said and went under the cover.

"YAA!" - You yelled at him, trying to understand what he was doing. - "For fuck's sake, man. What are you doing?" - and you immediately moved your body away from him.

"Heat transmission by thermal conduction. Physics, have you heard of it?"- The irony on his voice was huge.

"I'm seriously in such a disbelief right now. You're really saying this to me. Wow." - You couldn't react to his nonsense. You were just facing him trying to crack his code.

"Yeah, I am. This is real, Y/N. Come on!! It's gonna work. I won't do anything else. It's just me making your temperature rise." - He opened his arms for you, smiling at little bit with the right side of his mouth and then started to sing Cage the Elephant in a low tone. - "Come a little closer, then you'll see. Come on, come on, come on! Things aren't always what they seem to be."

You still couldn't believe him but you gave in. It was almost 4am and you were feeling so tired, so sleepy. What could go wrong? Yeah, everything. We know it. The existence of Kim Jonghyun went basically unnoticed by you until a few days ago. but you feel closer to him now, you started to trust him.

"Fine." - You rolled your eyes and your voice showed how mad you were still feeling. - "But be careful! If this goes badly, be ready because I'm going to kill you!"

"You're saying that you don't trust me?"

"I have many reasons for that, boy."

"Okay then, I get it. But I'm warm, I can give you all that. Trust me, baby."

"Stop being so clingy please, JR. I just wanna sleep." - You gave him such a disgusting face and then started to move towards his body, you just wanted this to end asap.

Your head was below his neck but you could imagine that he was with a victory smile on his face. And after a couple of minutes, you started to feel warmer so his victory was real and you had to give him that.
