Home & Healing

Soobin heard the quiet padding of feet against the wooden flooring of their shared dorms coming closer to the door of his room. He puts his phone down. It's 22:02. His attention is already on the person behind his door. He already knows who it is, recognising the hesitant footsteps and lack of noise.

If it were any other member they'd either barge in his room or come charging with ruckus. But it's not just any other member. He knows that Taehyun and Hueningkai are out watching a movie at the cinema's and he can hear the muffled frustrated screams coming from Beomgyu's room down the hall.

Soobin sits up from his bed and waits.

When the awaited knock on his door comes, he's already responding. "Come in." The door creeks as it opens a small gap and a small light comes through. Soobin smiled softly when the gap widens and a head pops through. "Hi hyung." Soobin whispered and Yeonjun smiled back warmly.

"Hi Bin-ah." His hair is soft, it's fluffy and natural. No product, no styling, just Yeonjun's hair all soft like a cloud. Soobin likes that hairstyle the most on him because he looks beautiful.

He already knows the familiar look in Yeonjun's eyes. It's him looking at Soobin with an unsure gaze and he simply nods to reassure him. Yeonjun steps in further into his room, closing the door gently.

Soobin scooted over the left side of his bed, opening up his blankets so there's room for Yeonjun. The older takes only a few strides across the room before Soobin's tucking him in safely for the night.

It's not strange. They often share a bed, to bask in each other's loving warmth, comfort and embrace that's understood by the rest of the members. They share talks about their day, how they're feeling and anticipating for, and stare at each other for hours.

Yeonjun's always been a touchy and hands on person, the members all knew and didn't mind. It's how Yeonjun seeks love, shows love and receives love and Soobin is more than happy to supply this to him.

Soobin brushed some of Yeonjun's hair out of his eyes but also as a sly excuse to keep touching his small face. It's warm and fuzzy the way Yeonjun's looking at him all soft and gooey as if he were a melted marshmallow.

They're both smiling endearing at each other now, with small touches, little giggles and hushed chattering. Soobin's glad Yeonjun seeks comfort and a home in Soobin just as Soobin seeks the healing presence from Yeonjun.

Soobin's limbs are entangled with Yeonjun's own, but neither mind. "Binnie..." It's muffled from Yeonjun's face tucked protectively in Soobin's neck.

Soobin stroked Yeonjun's back mindlessly, "Hmm?"

"When will the kids get back?" Yeonjun tilts his head up, accidentally knocking into Soobin's chin slightly. He mumbles out an incoherent apology before pressing his plush lips innocently on the sore spot.

Soobin flushes on his neck and ears, squeezing Yeonjun's hips as a sign of gratitude. "Probably before 12, hyung." Yeonjun hums before shuffling further around the bed and sighing contently when he's snuggled and cuddled just the way he likes with Soobin.

The younger pulls the weight of the blankets up, so it's covering both of the long bodies right and presses a forehead kiss on Yeonjun. The kisses they share hold so many unspoken words that they both understand.

Soobin thinks he would never be where he is now without Yeonjun. He knows he'd never be the same way if Yeonjun had rejected Soobin's aching and overbearing feelings for the older. He's forever grateful for all Yeonjun's done for him and their dongsaengs, so he's trying his best to repay him now.

Through their career. Through their relationship. Through their love.

He's out of his thoughts when Yeonjun mumbles something that can barely be heard, but Soobin heard it and his heart is full.

"I love you too. Sleep well Yeonjun-hyung."
