Hellhounds || Chanminsung ✔️

10

I take in a quick gasp when I wake from that horrid dream. Thoughts flood my brain, but it's too hard to process without getting a headache. It's too early for this.

"What's wrong?"

I sigh, rolling over and stuffing my face into a pillow. I didn't want to talk. I didn't want to cry. I didn't want to tell him that he tried to kill me. He's stressed enough.

"Go check on Minho." My voice comes out muffled, but I feel the bed dip down before feeling that I was alone.

Of all the things I could dream about, why was it that? Chan was no threat to me, yet paranoia stabbed at my heart. There had to be a reason behind it, unless my anxiety was trying to evolve into trust issues with people I loved. Fucking bitch.

"He's still asleep."

He gets back into bed, sliding his hands underneath my body to lift me up and have me straddle his stomach. My head is bowed, my arms struggling to keep my body up.

Chan places a hand on my back, pushing me until I finally lay on his chest. He kisses the side of my head, trying his best to show affection without forcibly calming me down.

"You okay?"

I don't respond, the position too comfortable. My bones had turned into jelly. I feel like even if I wanted to respond, I'd forget how to speak. That's what happened when I got too submissive. Unresponsive and jelly.

"Go back to sleep. I'll wake you when it's time for you to leave."

I just nod.

"Hey, did you do the notes? We have a quiz today on it; I forgot to tell you," Hyunjin says, walking with me to our class.

"Yeah, I did." Minho woke up sore and hurting. That bit was quite obvious. I wouldn't expect anything less. I was worried about leaving him this morning, but Chan said I shouldn't miss another class. I knew he was right, so here I was.

"You okay?" He eyed me, frowning a bit.

"Yeah, just tired." The only person who knew that they were demon hellhounds was Felix. Everyone else just thought we were kinky or some shit, but they didn't judge us for our poly relationship.

"Let me know if you want me to drive you home. I know it's a long walk, I wouldn't mind."

-

I ended up taking his offer. I tiredly leaned my head against the head rest; car rides always made me sleepy, along with the fact that I was already exhausted.

I said thank you once we got to my apartment complex. He just smiled and drove off. Stumbling a bit, I make it to the elevator and to my door. I knocked on it, too lazy to grab my own key.

Chan opens the door, a small smile on his face. Nothing like my dream. Good. I look behind him, watching Minho hobble back to the couch with a book in his hand.

"Hi."

He just smiled wider, pulling me inside. It felt good to be back in safety. I put my bag on the rack, watching the two boys cuddle on the couch. Ah, so that's what they've been doing without me. How cute.

I sigh, dropping to my knees and laying on my stomach on the floor. The cold felt nice. I got a bit warm at school. Summer was coming.
