A Far Cry From You

First thoughts

A/N: Hello everybody! So sorry for the late chapter. These past two weeks have been chaotic, and I didn't have time to upload.

I'm awful at thinking about titles for the chapters. I'm definitely regretting not choosing to leave them as "Chapter 1, 2, 3...". There are some decisions we make that are just baah!

Anyway here's the 4th chapter!

The house was dark except for the light coming from the lamp on Ohm's nightstand table.

Nanon was pacing around the room. Forward and back. He was having a strong cocktail of insomnia mixed with a bit of anxiety. It was only one hour ago that he took an anxiolytic pill, which made his chest unable to crush himself in and expand well enough to breathe properly. But still, the thoughts remained.

Since Ohm left with his manager to go to the hospital a little bit past dinner time, Nanon had eaten dinner, worked for 2 hours on his next solo event and had some papers for schoolwork... Tried to sleep, but failed at that... Watched a movie, tried to sleep, and failed again... Felt his chest being crushed, took a pill, and gave up on all this sleeping business. Who needs it anyway? Sleep is overrated.

The light of his cell phone brightened Nanon's face while he looked over the last messages they exchanged.

They will put me on liquids so it will take some time. Don't wait up, okay?

Okay. Try not to be a stubborn arse.

Sure thing! I'll save my stubbornness for you. *big angel dog sticker* *big devil dog sticker*

Oh, lucky me! Goodnight, take a rest.

Night, Non. *big dog sleeping sticker*

The abusive use of those huge stickers annoyed Nanon to his core. In this honest opinion, they should be banned! Why the need? Another thing about Ohm that was annoying.

This was the first time he was alone without Ohm since all of this began. It was making reality closer to him, like what he was experiencing with Ohm was more of a dream than reality. Like the Nanon he was when he was with Ohm wasn't him.

"How can you be so calm?"

Ohm is sitting on the opposite side of the couch, facing me, with one foot on top of it. He had taken off the t-shirt he was wearing because of the heat after the... Aham... Activity we had just done. His chest and abs shine with the drops of sweat that are resting there. Shia, he looks... Mouthwatering. Literally. I can feel saliva gathering in my mouth, for the love of the Lord! What is happening to me? I'm literally drooling over him! My eyes travel down through the line of his abs until the hem of his shorts. I feel my cheeks burning with the knowledge of what's under the fabric and try to refocus my mind. It was not the first time I'd seen him naked. But definitely, I've never seen him like this...

Wait, he's talking!

"... and damn, we don't even have time. I'm having..." Ohm pauses, looking at me, "Are you listening to me? You're so red. What are you thinking?"

I don't know what to answer and he laughs.

"Can you stop being cute? We are trying to have a proper conversation here."

That only makes me more flustered.

"Stop being an asshole and repeat what you were saying! I was distracted," I defend myself.
