writing love in the stars ◇ byeonghee/doyum (just b)

1/1

Even if the camping had been something random and spontaneous, and he did all the work —as always—, Byeonghee felt deep inside his chest a feeling of realization and pure peace, along with a vibrant bliss. Looking at the dark sky beside the bonfire that was consuming itself little by little, Byeonghee fell in love with that day.

After some minutes of stargazing, he heard the sliding door being opened and after some seconds of what he believed was doubt, the door was softly closed behind other soft sounds of footsteps. Not many moments after, Byeonghee saw out of the corner of his eyes the beautiful teasing smile of none less than Jeon Doyum. Byeonghee smiled back at him in a world record.

"What are you doing, hyung? Everyone is getting ready to sleep," he said, voice small, smile big.

Byeonghee tried to position his body in a way to look at Doyum better, but failed, so instead, he just bent his neck in an inhumane way. He may have looked ridiculous, but watching the sweet face of Doyum was always a priority.

"I'm just stargazing. But why aren't you sleeping yet? It's late, Doyum-ah," he almost whispered.

He was feeling kind of stunned. He felt so happy that it was hard to be anything but relaxed.

Doyum stared at him for what felt like years, until he cleared his throat and changed his attention to the stars above.

"You know I hate to sleep early."

That seemed like his whole answer, and Byeonghee knew he didn't have to really press on it. He would never know if it was stress, anxiousness, or Doyum just liked to have fun at night, but Byeonghee respected his wish to be awake until late hours. That had a limit, though, so some days Byeonghee would actually make him go to sleep by force. It wouldn't be a first to grab him, put him on his shoulder like a potato sack and throw him in his bed —nothing... weird intended, okay?—.

He knew it was a little hypocritical because he was awake at those ungodly hours too, but hey, it was better to make Doyum have healthier habits than him.

"Do you mind if I join you? Stargazing, that I meant," Doyum asked, suddenly.

Byeonghee looked at Doyum again, but found his pretty face looking straight at the night sky. He nodded with his head either way.

"Of course, Doyumie. Inside my backpack there's an extra blanket if you don't want to lay straight on the floor. It's kinda wet though. Weird, if you ask me. It didn't rain the whole day."

While he was talking, Doyum was already unfolding the blanket on the floor, making himself comfortable on said piece of cloth.

They were considerably close. Doyum's hand was just at hand stretch distance. If Byeonghee wanted- No, if both of them wanted, they could reach each other and hold hands the whole night.

"I believe it rained before we came here and the day was horrible. I guess it didn't dry completely."

"The day was not horrible! It was sunny."

"It was sunny for like an hour, then it became cloudy when I was trying to start the fire to grill the meat. I swear someone blessed us before coming here because today was totally going to rain."

Byeonghee couldn't watch him, but he was one hundred percent Doyum was pouting. He giggled, smiling at the stars like the lovestruck idiot he was.

"Well, you're right. There must be someone above there that loves you, Doyum-ah."

"Maybe, who knows."

A peaceful silence was brought in seconds. Byeonghee almost felt like he could sleep for hours just having the presence of Doyum by his side.
