24 | red socks & warmth

Jeongguk was heavily distracted by the soft snores coming from the older one who was already long asleep beside him on the bed while he was trying to help him with the lessons.

Jeongguk stopped reading and now closed his book and smiled to himself before watching the older sleeping with his back pressed on the wall and head against it and Jeongguk just asked himself whispering, "Should I wake him up of just let him be? But his head and shoulders will hurt later."

"I will call Jimin—" Jeongguk grabbed his phone from his side and noticed that it was already one in the morning and he doesn't know how to deal with this sleeping beauty.

Jeongguk decided to make him lay properly on his bed and he will sleep on the floor or probably beside Taehyung which he wasn't so sure of at the moment but anyway slowly with caution tucked him to bed.

He realized his body was a bit cold so he pulled that blanket and covered him with it. Taehyung moved a little and was about to wake up but again stirred into that deep sleep when the warmth of the mattress and blanket plus the softness of the pillow embraced him with oh so much love.

Taehyung actually had an habit of sleeping with cuddling up with something soft and this time it was Jeongguk's another pillow and now he was left with no pillow but he didn't mind as he smiled at this and pushed that blanket even more.

Jeongguk just sat there and stared at the one who was most probably having sweet dreams about something, "Now that you took my bed, my pillows where do I sleep?"

Jeongguk asked and no answer from the older and as he was about to go to Jackson's and his roommates room but then saw Taehyung curling up in a ball and noticed that his legs were exposed to the cold.

Jeongguk didn't hesitate once before he reached out for his washed pair of red socks from his basket of clothes near his study table. He crouched down on the floor beside Taehyung's feet and made them wear those socks,

"Even his feet looks gorgeous, what the fuckery is this?"

"Now that you're sleeping and I can tell you everything without feeling weird about it, listen—" the blond said and slowly reached out for Taehyung's hand which he found very attractive, "This must be a hoax right?"

"This feels unreal, these days, I want to talk to you, not to brag or flex that I am the mage's son, I want to see you more, not to find chances to annoy you. I want to listen to you, not all of those curses and stuff, you have been important to me these days and this is concerning," Jeongguk confessed all that he had inside, these past days, he had been feeling so close to Taehyung, after all he did for him even when he was his enemy, all the smiles directed at him, Jeon Jeongguk liked to stay with Kim Taehyung, very much to be exact.

Say it as a friend or whatever but he did like it when he was around, "You have managed to get a place in my life and I hope it stays just like that. I really wish none of those competition or whatever issues our dads have with each other come between us."

Jeongguk stayed silent for sometime before keeping his head on the edge of the bed while he watched Taehyung sleep in peace.

Taehyung woke up in the middle of the night all of a sudden and once he acknowledged where he was, he was surprised but he was astonished to see Jeongguk sleeping near his feet with his head on the edge of the bed while he was sat on the floor, "Ah shit, how did I sleep here?"

"Hey, Jeongguk," Taehyung scooted closer and slowly moved the other's hand but he was already sleeping so hard. So, it took him a while to wake him up.

"Come on, get on the bed, your neck will hurt in the morning," the brunet pointed out to which the half sleepy Jeongguk just nodded and moved up to the bed only to crash on his pillow that very moment.
