【CHAPTER SEVENTEEN】
ˋhot chocolateˊ

“Jeongwoo? Aren't you gonna sleep?” Junkyu asked from the kitchen when he saw the younger was preparing to sleep on the couch.

“I was about to sleep, hyung. Why? Do you need something?” Jeongwoo asked the older actor.

Meanwhile, the other japanese actor just finished taking a bath while rubbing the towel on his wet hair.

“You'll sleep there?” Junkyu then asked Jeongwoo as he pointed at the couch.

“Yeah, I already set up the bed for the two of you. Don't worry, the bed's big enough for the two of you” Junkyu and Haruto both stared at each other.

Haruto was signalling the older to transfer to the sofa but sorry to say, he doesn't want to hurt his back on the couch.

”Want me to company you sleeping there?” Haruto offered hoping he'll get to sleep beside the personal assistant.

“I'm okay here. The couch is too small for the two of us to fit, I can't also let you sleep on the floor”

“Woo” the japanese called the younger with his soft voice.

“You two can sleep on my room” Jeongwoo lastly said before he laid on the couch while still watching tv.

“You should have not let him sleep there!” Haruto whispered, nagging the older.

“I don't want to sleep on the couch! Then you should've let us sleep together. You sleep on the couch” Junkyu protested.

“But you're older” Haruto this time pulled the age card.

“Didn't you told me that you're more mature than me?”

Luckily for Junkyu, the japanese run out of reasons to persuade him to sleep on the couch. Junkyu stood up from the dining table holding his chamomile tea.

“Damn you” he cursed.

But Junkyu, being the unbothered king he is, he sticked out his tongue to annoy the younger more as he walked towards the assigned room for the two of them.

On the other hand, Haruto was hesitating if he should just go to the room or not, his mind was debating if he should go or annoy Jeongwoo first, but since he knew that the personal assistant was tired, he decided to proceed on the room.

[10:59 pm]

Haruto could still hear the loud sound of thunders outside and he still couldn't sleep because of it. Not like he was scared of it but everytime he would close his eyes and try to drift to sleep, he will get surprise because of the thunder and it leaves him fully awake eventually.

Junkyu on the other hand was sleeping soundfully a distance from him, he was wearing his ear muffs. Lucky him, he had ear muffs to protect his ears.

He was just shifting left and right on the bed but he still can't manage to sleep.

The japanese young actor was too occupied on how he can fell asleep at this rate that he didn't even realize that the door suddenly opened, revealing the personal assistant rubbing his eyes.

Jeongwoo noticed the japanese was still awake so he walked towards the actor's  direction to check up on him.

He sat down on his heel, trying to reach the level of the bed to see and talk with the japanese clearly.

“You okay?” he softly asked the young actor.

Haruto immediately shifted to face the younger, unconsciously not aware that he was already having this small pout on his lips.

“Can't sleep” he answered the personal assistant.

Jeongwoo couldn't even do anything if sleepiness still don't linger around him because he honestly understands the feeling.

Jeongwoo stood up and offered his hand.

“W-what?..” the japanese asked confusedly, staring at his hand.

“I'll make you hot chocolates so you can sleep” the japanese couldn't even contain himself from smiling as he immediately jolted up from the bed and held back on the latter's hand.

He isn't even a fan of hot chocolates but knowing that the latter will prepare it for him, he was real excited for it.

Jeongwoo made the japanese sat on the couch on the leaving room.

“Your pajamas were too thin, are you cold?” he asked noticing partially of the japanese's chest are exposed and considering it was close to a see through cloth.

“A little bit” he answered truthfully.

Jeongwoo took his blanket lying beside him and covered the older with the blanket on his back.

“Wait for me” he instructed and continued walking towards the kitchen.

The japanese can't even hide his smile as he tighten his grip on Jeongwoo's blanket before turning around to see what the personal assistant was doing on the kitchen, watching every move he'll make. He placed his chin on the top of the sofa's backrest as he continued watching the personal assistant from a far.

Apparently, the stove was on the side of the kitchen than means the latter's back was now visible on his sight.

Damn those broad shoulders..

Mouth shut but his mind was full with thoughts about Jeongwoo's wide back and broad shoulders. His little smile was still visible from his face as he kept on having staring competitions with Jeongwoo's back.

The smell of chocolate lingers around his nose but still, he couldn't get off his mind how his shoulders were a 'pillow ideal'

“Would you like some marshmallows on your hot chocolate?” Jeongwoo asked directly when he saw that the japanese was already looking at his direction.

But sadly, the older still can't hear him. His thoughts were more louder than Woo's voice.

“Hey!” Jeongwoo's voice slightly raised enough for the japanese to snap him back to reality.

“H—huh, w—what, y—yes” Jeongwoo noticed that he was unaware.

“You stare too much, am I that attractive?” Jeongwoo teased showing his oh so dazzling smile that almost melts the older.

Fuck.

The older cursed realizing that he was getting sucker for Jeongwoo's smile.

“S-sorry, you saying something?”

“I said do you like marshmallows on your hot chocolate?”

“O—oh y—yeah”

Jeongwoo put some tiny marshmallows on his drink before carrying the cup towards the living room.

“Here, take your time drinking it. It's still hot”
