You Could Call It Love

Jimin's POV

"Wha-What?", I asked her because I was too suprised by the words that came out of her mouth.

"I-I mean not like that! Just that I feel cold and lonely.", she explained as she looked at me.

Her doe eyes and her pout were enough to make me agree. "Fine.", I agreed as she threw her fists in the air in victory.

"I promise I wouldn't do anything to you.", she said while smiling like a child showing all her teeth to which I could just laugh softly.

"Oh okay.", I said in between my laughs.

I went to sleep on the left side of the bed while she slept on the right side. I slept as far as possible from her. I decided to go sleep on the couch once she goes to sleep because afterall she is really drunk so she is not in a sensible state. I checked the time on my phone that showed 10:16pm. Wow that's kinda early to sleep. I will sleep here till 11 I guess, maybe she will fall asleep till then.

I can just lay till then, its not like I will fall asleep after sleeping so much in the afternoon already.

Thats what I thought until I woke up when I felt something heavy on my chest.

I opened my eyes just to see Ae-ri cuddled up and her head on my chest. Her hand was around my waist that was gripping on my shirt that made my cheeks flushed. I just hope she doesn't listen to my levitated heart beat.

I looked at her sleeping peacefully. Her hair falling on her face that I bet were tickling and troubling her. I swept her hair away from her face behind her ears. I took a good look at her that made me smile immediately.
Her tiny nose that looked irresistible to not boop that made me chuckle silently.

Wait what is happening? Heart racing, me blushing because of her and just smiling like an idiot just by looking at her. I don't like her right? No way why would I? No its just my stupid heart. Thats when the quarrel between my head and heart started.

Just thinking of the possibility of me liking her made my heart race more. Ugh why is my mind so messed up.

I tried getting up from the bed but her grudge was too tight. The more I tried moving away from her, the more she tightened her hold on me. She is indeed really strong. I sighed and laid down and stopped.

How am I going to sleep with her being so close to me? I slept awkwardly just staring at the ceiling with tremendous thoughts. Do I like her? No no I don't! Then why do I feel like this! Ugh I will just try to sleep instead of overthinking. After sometime I felt asleep because I was so tired of the internal argument going on in my head.

I woke up with Ae-ri in my arms as I slept comfortably. Wait why was this so comfortable? I had to get up even though how tempting it was to sleep with her in my arms. Wait why did it feel that good? Ugh stop asking that many questions to yourself!

I woke up carefully without waking her up. I ordered some hangover pills for her because I know she will most probably wake up with an headache. I showered and came from the shower just to see Ae-ri sitting on the bed holding her head.

"Headache?", I asked to which she nodded.

"Take this. You will feel better.", I said giving her the packet of the hangover pills and some water. She gulped down the pills immediately after uttering a small thanks.

"Its just 8am, sleep more if you want. Maybe you will feel better after waking up.", I said to which she flashed a small smile.

"Maybe I should. You stole my words from my mouth.", she said to which I chuckled.
