This includes: fluff, just fluff
Basically just one of the Maknaez can't sleep and seeks his best friend for comfort to fall asleep.

Taehyun sighed for the hundredth time that night, staring at the ceiling of his top bunk in the dorms.

They had just moved to the new HYBE building, and their new dorms, and whenever Taehyun spent his first night at a new place, he would usually have difficulties.

Like right now.

He woke up just a couple minutes after midnight. It was now almost 2 am, and he was still awake.

Unfortunately, he left his phone in their living area, because he had to set a phone limit for himself after spending too many hours on Weverse. If he had it with him, he would scroll through YouTube or maybe some apps he should probably not download but shhh don't tell their manager.

Taehyun pursed his lips into a pout, and rolled over onto his stomach, blowing his fading blond strands out of his face.

This sucks.

He glanced at Hueningkai, who was sleeping soundly and softly in his top bunk. He had a few of his Molang plushies in his bed, and was cuddling the biggest one in his arms.

Taehyun suddenly wished he was there instead.

Before, he and Hueningkai would often cuddle to fall asleep faster. Especially when it was thundering in the night. Maybe it was their Maknae energy, but they did not like thunderstorms at all. It was scary to hear all the thunder, rain, and lightning, which is why they found comfort with each other.

Hugging each other tightly, one earbud in each ear so they can listen to music, and talking in case they were nervous.

But now that both are adults, Taehyun believes he needs to halt his more childish habits.

One of which is being clingy and cuddly to everyone.

Which is why he often restrained himself from doing that time to time with Hueningkai, and although he didn't show it, Hueningkai kinda felt sad by that.

Taehyun had to also admit; he genuinely missed that. It's just his pride of being an adult didn't let him.

But right now, at this hour and situation?

He didn't care any less about being an adult with pride.

"Kai? Huening? Ning Ning?" he whispered.

Hueningkai softly mumbled, before his eyelids fluttered open and he glanced up from behind the bed frame.

"What is it Hyun?" he asked in a whisper.

"I can't sleep."

"Oh."

Hueningkai didn't hesitate in saying his next statement.

"Come here."

"What?" Taehyun questioned in disbelief.

"You can come and cuddle with me; it doesn't matter if we're adults."

"Okay."

Taehyun pulled the covers aside, and climbed down his ladder before tiptoeing across their room (he didn't want to wake the others up as the walls are surprisingly thin), climbing up another ladder and moving towards Hueningkai.

The slightly younger boy lifted his blanket up so Taehyun could crawl under it and huddle close to him.

Taehyun wrapped one arm around Hueningkai, laying his head on his best friend's shoulder.

Sometimes, there are benefits of being smaller than him. He could sometimes even out the cuteness they are well known for: Hueningkai with his aegyo behavior and Taehyun with his short but tall height (and baby noises but he is too stubborn and prideful to admit that). But scratch that; he mainly liked that he could let himself be clingy and somewhat childish around Hueningkai.

The golden-brown-haired boy smiled as he held Taehyun's hand.

"I missed this."

"Missed what?" Taehyun asked.

"I missed you acting like this towards us, especially me."

"I don't get it."

"Come on Taehyun, just because we may be 20 in Korea doesn't mean we have to act like adults. MOAs love our childish sides a lot, remember?"

"I know... I just feel like I have to be more grown up now. The whole world always expects adults to let go of their childish sides and mature more."

"They should change that. I think people should be allowed to still act cute, even if they're 30 or 40."

Hueningkai grinned.

"You can always be that around us. You know that Yeonjun hyung, Soobin hyung and Beomgyu hyung won't mind. And I don't care either!" he exclaimed.

Taehyun smiled.

"Yeah."

He snuggled closer to Hueningkai, the younger boy slightly bending his head to reach him.

The warmth coming from their bodies being close together was causing Taehyun to get drowsy, and he felt his eyelids drooping.

"Night night Ning Ning," he mumbled, before falling asleep.

Hueningkai smiled, and he closed his eyes, feeling content.

"Good night Hyunnie."

A/N: I'm... in... shatters 💔 I just love Tyunning they're the cutest pair ever ☹️ This was inspired by one of my favorite artists' arts (go follow golzybladedee asap) and written last year roughly a month after TXT moved into the new HYBE building. And back then I had no idea how TXT's dorms looked like lol; none of us did. Anyways I gotta go to bed now cuz I have a math test; if you're about to head off for the night as well, sleep tight and sweet dreams 💜💙
