You stared down at your boyfriend, watching as his eyelashes fluttered against his cheeks as he finally closed his tired eyes.

He got home a little earlier than usual tonight. You know how worn out he is.

Despite you fussing over him and wanting him to just go up to bed and get a little rest, he refused and sat down on the sofa beside you to pull you in his arms and finish up the movie you just turned on a few minutes before he arrived home.

It only took him about twenty minutes for him to become so relaxed with you so close to him that he found it hard to stay awake.

You happily let him curl up with his legs over the arm of the sofa and his head on your lap.

He was comfortable and happy. You could see it with how relaxed he finally seems to be and it brought you some comfort because he works so hard and deserves a little time to relax like this.

You leaned down and brushed your fingers along his forehead. You watched him smile and he reached for your hand, happily wrapping his fingers around yours as he sighed contentedly.

"Sleep tight, Joon."

"I'm not tired." He mumbled. "I'm not falling asleep. I'm only resting my eyes. I'll be awake and watching the rest of the movie with you in just a minute."

You shook your head with a laugh.

He definitely wouldn't be. He was falling asleep. You know how he gets when he's close to falling fast asleep, from the sound of his voice to the way he breathes.

"No, you're not, Namjoon. That's okay." You spoke softly. "You're exhausted. You need a little time to rest and let your mind and body rest for a while. You work hard, let yourself take some time to breathe."

He just sighed and squeezed your hand a little.

"Don't worry. I'm going to be right here the whole time."

"Will you wake me up?" He asked sleepily.

You knew he was trying hard to open his eyes but it was a fight he was bound to lose. He wasn't just tired but also relaxed with you right by his side as he began to drift off to sleep.

"Okay. I'll let you sleep for a couple of hours, then we'll order some food and head up to bed."

He hummed to let you know he heard you.

He was falling into a deep sleep, so tired now that he couldn't even speak.

"Sleep, Joon," you whispered and brushed your free hand along his cheek while he continued to hold your other in his, refusing to let go of it even as he drifted off to sleep.

You watched him closely. You knew he'd fallen asleep just a minute later by the way he started to breathe; slow and steady.

The movie you turned on was your favorite. Yet, it was the last thing on your mind.

You'd much rather watch your sweet boyfriend sleep on your lap, swearing that the sight is one of the most heartwarming and sweetest things you've ever seen before.

You can't ever get enough. You can't ever stop thinking about how lucky you are.

You watched with a smile on your face, thanking every one of your lucky stars that you get to call him yours.

You listened to him breathe, watched as his chest rose and fell steadily. You watched his lips as you'd brush your thumb along his palm as he'd smile in his sleep from your touch.

"I love you so much." You whispered and leaned down carefully to kiss his cheek, watching as he smiled again.

You looked at the clock. You'd give him two hours then wake him as he wanted. You looked back at the tv to finish up the rest of the movie.

But you didn't stay focused.

You kept looking away to gaze at your loving boyfriend instead, swearing to yourself that you just fall even more in love with him, every single thing about him, every day.
