Now, it starts...

~*~

Opening your eyes you find yourself staring at the ceiling of your bedroom. Blinking slowly you just laid there, no thoughts, just laid there, inhaling and breathing out, listening intently to your surroundings, of your very own beating heart. For once in your life, you find yourself having the aching feeling of just wanting, to reassure yourself you are indeed alive.

Why?

You don't know...

It's just... seems like you were...

Are you really

"Living?" Whispering oh so quietly, you were greeted with a parched and scratchy throat, as if in instinct, you reach out a hand towards your neck but was instead somewhat put you into a realization that something was restraining your limb in not so tight grip.

As your eyes trailer towards the opaque silhouette of a red haired teen beside you, memories slowly ingrained and you find yourself recalling the happenings these past few days.

Another person's touch... haven't been able to feel this for a while now...

Gripping the larger hand softly, you found yourself filling up with a warmness you missed for the longest time.

Just knowing that finally there was someone with you, interacting with you made you smile a peaceful yet blissful smile.

Debating whether to wake him up or not, you finally decided to bring him back with you and discuss things.

For you somewhat feel like things are different now... in a good way? Bad way?

I don't know... It's just not gonna be the same anymore... I just don't know why really... At least, I have someone by my side right now... Have I ever had someone by my side ever?

Shaking your head, intending to rid of nonsense thoughts, you pushed it away for now and once again focused and aims to wake up the sleeping ghost beside you.

"Kakyoin"

Uttering his name in a gentle manner, Kakyoin arose from his slumber, eyes glazed and dazed for a while, staring at you, straight at the eye.

Wherein you yourself finding reciprocating.

As Kakyoin gathered his consciousness, his eyes followed where his other hand was supposed to be.

Eyes widening, he frantically yet still at the same time gently eased his hand out of yours earning a confused stare from you and an embarrassed stare from violet orbs.

"I uhh, like I, night...nightmares, you, and i uh.. just like... "

A stuttering mess he truly had become with hands sweeping and sliding from left to right and likewise as if dancing trying his best to somewhat explain how his hand just flew over and found comfort within your hands last night until know.

Cute

Earning a little chuckle from you, he became much more embarrassed yet as he peeked one eye open, he find himself softening up and instead as if to help him distract you. Your phone beeped once.
