23:59 - "puzzle pieces"

in retrospect, kai has his persons—specific people made for him to fit into even if he didn't believe that he was the last piece to a pretty picture at first. one day, he wakes up in his apartment with a bandage insecurely wrapped around his mark; and today, he wakes up between arms that hold him just right.

sometimes, kai stays longer in yeonjun and soobin's embrace to realize that everything is not a dream. "you don't need carving to fit," soobin told him on warm nights with lovely tears and reassuring touches. "i'm yours, i'm here," yeonjun kissed him softly to wake him up from a nonexistent dream.

and wow, wow, this is real.

kai slipped with the pair like the last piece to a puzzle, like fingertips gazed on the pink skin of yeonjun's lips and the deep flushed dimples on soobin's cheeks—it's seamless. second nature. meant to be. it took kai so long to have an epiphany, and in all honesty, he loved it the way it happened: surely.

it taught him the empty feeling of being without soobin and yeonjun; now he stays every single day.

when soobin makes him breakfast and when yeonjun asks to fix his tie—kai's heart jumps at every action because it's love and it's terrifying. but fear only meant he treasures, fear meant his soulmates are precious... and he couldn't agree more.

"will you be here when i open my eyes?" kai murmured in the morning.

instead of a verbal reply, he feels kisses on both sides of his cheeks.

he doesn't need carving to fit. yeonjun and soobin are his as much as he is theirs. he fits with them just right.
