TAG: "i just want to stay with you"

i'm obsessed with that line shush

•••

seungkwan knows vernon isn't the type to get all giddy or giggly. about anything. so alarms go off when he suddenly is.

as luck has it, they're sharing a hotel room on their first night after their concert in seoul. while patting face cream on, seungkwan watches with amusement at the bounce in hansol's steps as he moves from the bathroom to his own bed. he spares a glance at seungkwan and splits into a grin.

"what're you so excited about, nonie?" seungkwan rubs the excess down his neck.

"oh... nothing. just... yeah nothing."

seungkwan hums, suspicious. "just spit it out, nonie." hansol gives in, "okay fine, i'm just feeling really good about where we are, y'know? like, we're big but on a scale that's comfortable to me. i like where we are."

seungkwan smiles, he gets it. "me too..." but he has more to say.

watching hansol lounge on his bed this late, still scrolling on his phone... it stirs something in seungkwan. something that makes him want to cry. and he's just put on his night cream, damn it!

"kwan-ah...?"

seungkwan watches hansol's face contort into shocked concern just as his vision blurs.

"oh, boo,"

hansol rushes to seungkwan's side, wrapping an arm around him and grabbing a tissue for his tears. he rubs seungkwan's arm comfortingly and whispers words to him. it's one of hansol's perfections. he lets seungkwan cry before asking what's happened. and seungkwan loves him for that.

when seungkwan's feels okay again, hansol assesses the damage. he turns seungkwan's reddened face to him and they lock eyes. even in the yellow tinged hotel room, they look beautiful to each other and end up cracking small smiles of awe.

hansol cleans up seungkwan's face with a damp hand towel he brings from the bathroom as well as a water bottle for him to replenish his lost tears. "what bothered you, kwan?"

seungkwan pouts, "just seeing you lie there so free and so happy after what you said... it just felt right to cry. because i feel happy too," his hand wanders to hansol's and he places his on top. hansol looks down at the intrusion.

"and i hope to stay in this happiness."

hansol lets a beat of silence play, "stay with me?"

seungkwan's mind runs a billion thoughts. and then he smiles. "always, nonie. i'll always be with you." hansol can't help but smile too. even with an unspoken yearning threading between their words, they both feel more confident in their adoration for the other.

"let's sleep, boo." hansol says. seungkwan arranges his pillows but hansol doesn't budge, "you're gonna sleep here?" hansol nods, "you said you'd stay with me always..." he pouts with feigned sadness, making seungkwan laugh and hit him playfully. "you idiot. alright, get under the covers and hit the lights, please!"

drowned in darkness, hansol and seungkwan made their promises to each other in the form of hand holding, whispers, cuddling and even sneaking in a surprise kiss.
