I looked at the ti- 2:00 AM?!?!

"Fuck- It's 2:00 AM- Maybe we should go to sleep," I said, standing up. "But, where can you sleep?"

Taehyung shrugged. "I dunno. Maybe, the couch?"

I made an offended and confused look. "Excuse me?! Nu uh. I do NOT let my guests sleep on the- on the- ON THE COUCH?!?!"
I tsked. "Never in a million years. I will sleep on the couch, you can sleep on the be-"
Suddenly, the power went out.

"Oh my god what the hell-" I suddenly hear a yelp. Well that wasn't me, Hoseok and Yoongi aren't here- oh my god was that Taehyung-?

"Taehyung? Was that you?"

I heard a scoff. "N-No, I don't scream. Me? A man? I am not scared of the dark. No siree."

I made a straight line with my mouth. "Boo," I said sarcastically.

Suddenly, I hear Taehyung squeal and climb onto me. Oh my god this man is adorable- He's afraid of the dark, poor baby :(

"Taehyung-ah, it's just the power. It'll come back on when it'll come back on. It's just from the snow storm. We're fine."

Taehyung shook, hiding his face in my chest.
I hold him close and walked to the bed. Poor dude, afraid of the dark.

"Jimin...sleep next to me..It's cold and.." Taehyung sighed. "Okay...I am scared.."

I felt shy, butterflies in my stomach. He's really scared? Oh my god poor Taehyung :(

I nod and lay him on my bed, laying next to him and putting on the covers. "There we go, how does that feel?"

Taehyung nodded and grabbed a pillow. He wrapped his arms and legs around the pillow and smiled. "Thank you, Jimin...You're very kind.." Taehyung yawned. "Good night, Jimin. See you at sunrise."

I smiled and grabbed a soft blanket that was big enough for me and got my couch ready. I got onto my couch and looked back at Taehyung. "Good night, Taehyung. Have sweet dreams."

With that, I slowly drifted off to sleep...

Taehyung's POV

I heard a loud thud and immediately woke up. I'm quite a light sleeper. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I noticed Jimin was standing at the door. Just- Standing there, back facing me. What on earth was he doing???
"Ji..min..?" I asked groggily and hushed, still recovering from the sleep. Jimin didn't respond.
I slowly stood up and wrapped my blanket around my shoulders, walking tiredly to Jimin as the clean floorboards creaked at the pressure of my bare feet.
I tapped Jimin's shoulder and slowly turned him around. "Jimi-" I saw that his eyes were closed.

Does he sleep walk???

"Jimin?" I gently shook him. He still didn't respond. Instead, he just, fell forward into my arms. I of course quickly caught him. "Woah, woah, woah!"
I tried to be as quiet as I could. "Jimin, let's get back to bed, yeah?"
Jimin only made a small "mm" as a response. I picked him up slowly, "bridal style" as it's called and placed him on the bed. I grabbed the soft blanket he had and the blanket I was using, and set it over us as soon as I laid back down.
Jimin stirred in his sleep and nearly got up again. On instinct, as I didn't want him to hurt himself, I gently pulled him to my chest and turned over, wrapping my arms around Jimin.
Our faces now faced the massive window near Jimin's bed. I looked at the city buildings before looking down at Jimin. Jimin didn't stir anymore. He was calm and was just...clinging onto my arms.
This...felt nice. I felt off, though, as this was my employee, but...he...he felt comforting and warm...Then, he turned around and slowly opened his eyes to look up at me.
"Ah, I'm sorry...I-I didn't mean to-"
Jimin pressed his head against my chest, and in a soft and sweet voice said, "Shh...Hold me...I'm cold..tired...and feel safe in your arms...So hold me.." He gently placed his arms around my back.
I felt my heart race. I nodded slowly and closed my eyes. "Okay...I'm here...I'm here.."
Why don't I want to let go..?
