Him

Four

Kim AiXun was not going to lie when he said he was exhausted. All he wanted to do was jump onto his bed and sleep for the rest of his life. He had been up for almost 48 hours, only catching a 15 minute nap in between car rides. It was late evening when AiXun finally came back to his new apartment. He entered the penthouse, taking off his shoes and neatly placed them on the shoe rack. AiXun walked in, finding Jisung sprawled on the couch, his body half hanging off it. A blanket thrown over his small frail.

"Welcome home." AiXun looked up to see Lee Know standing from the second floor of the penthouse. "He wouldn't sleep in his new room because to him, it's 'too big'." He quoted. "Where have you been?" AiXun showed him a cake box and coffee. "I don't believe getting a cake and coffee would need 5 hours." The older made his way down. AiXun mutely showed him the store printed on the cake box. "You traveled 2 hours just to get a cake?"

"Jisung's favourite." The younger muttered.

"AiXun, are you in love with him?" AiXun shook his head.

"I felt bad for getting him involve in my mess." He quietly responded, "I'm tired. I'm going to sleep." He pass the cake to Lee Know. Before the older could even say anything, AiXun had left to his room.

AiXun couldn't remember the last time he got himself some decent sleep. He awakes to the stream of light shining through the bind. He felt heavy as if someone was sleeping on him. AiXun groaned, propped his upper body with his elbows. He looked around, oddly finding a burrito of blanket on top of him.

"Mof movfe,"

AiXun laid back down, removing the blanket to see who it was. He wasn't surprise to see Jisung comfortably drooling on his chest, sleep talking even. AiXun sighed, carefully shifting the older off his chest. Just as he was about to get off his bed, a hand held him back. Jisung yawned, rubbing his eyes with his fist.

"Where are you going?"

As usual, AiXun didn't respond.

"AiXunnnnnnnn," Jisung whined, "you owe me an explanation. A long explanation and you have to speak , let your voice out. I love your voice."

AiXun stayed silent.

"Awww, come on." Jisung pleaded. "I won't kill you to speak to me." Somehow, the smaller succeeded in pulling AiXun back to bed. "Now, why don't you explain yourself to me? What actually happened last two days? Why were there gangsters looking for you? What happened to our old apartment? And thank you for the cheesecake."

AiXun looked up at him, emotionless. He felt the need to explain the situation but, he was just too tired to even speak. AiXun sighed for the second time since he opened his eyes. He didn't say anything but, patted Jisung's head before getting up from the bed.

"Yah. Kim AiXun. I still didn't get any explanation." AiXun could hear his yells echoing as he walked down the stairs to the living room.

"Aixun, good morning." AiXun gave the older a nod.

Lee Know smiled, pouring a cup of coffee for him, "Jisung sneaked into your room last night, I'm very surprise it didn't woke you up. You must've been exhausted. Did you explain the situation to him?"

"Do I have to?" The younger asked in a whisper.

"Well, he deserves to know after being captured hostage." Lee Know said.

AiXun knew he had a point but, to him, it will be exhausting to explain everything from A to Z considering how much words would come out of his mouth.

"I can do the explanation for you but, I just need your permission." Lee Know offered, "at the very least, I need to know if I should tell him everything."
