„I'm gonna sleep on the couch, or somewhere else.", he smiled at me. "If you need something, you can just call me.".

"Actually...can you sleep here as well?", I tilted my head, which made him stop in his tracks.

„Uhm...I mean, I can. Sure.", he agreed and finally stepped into his bedroom, closing the door completely. "I just thought you might feel uncomfortable.".

I laughed and slit a little further on the mattress. "As long as you don't snore. Because otherwise you are welcome to sleep on the couch.".

Heeseung switched off the light, using his phone camera to illuminate the room a little to guide himself one time around the bed. As he sad down as well, he nodded towards the nightstand on my side. The remote control over there is for the LED light on the ceiling," he explained. "You can turn it on if you want.".

I did as he said and choose a soft natural color for the light stripe, which immediately made the room seem more cozy.

„I'm so tired." yawned Heeseung. „And I hardly did anything today.". His back rested against the headboard as he checked the time on his phone. „It's almost 12 am.".

I grabbed the blanket, which by now was only dangling loosely over my left shoulder, and snuggled my head into the soft pillow, earning a short glance from the side.

„I can turn off the lights, if you want to sleep.". But I lightly shook my head. „It's cozy like this.".

A smile flits across his face, as he brushed a strand of hair behind my ear, which has fallen over my forehead. Even though I was already half asleep, I still felt the burning tingle his fingertips left on my skin. So without any second though, I shifted over to his side of the bed, and placed my head on his upper arm, very close to his face.

His arm sneaked around my waist, as he adjusted us both in a more comfortable position. I hummed quietly, my head now resting on his chest. The scent of his perfume appeared in my nose with every breath I took as I closed my eyes one again.

„Have you set up an alarm?", he asked, glaring down at me.

I nodded „Three to be exact. There's no way I'm gonna miss my plane tomorrow.".

"You say so? I've once missed my train because I overslept two hours, even though I turned on five alarms the day before."

"Don't scare me!" I scolded him. "We won't oversleep, okay?".

"At least I try.". I added with a chuckle. "You are so cozy, I hope I will be able to get up.".

„By the way. I was thinking about this the whole time.". Heeseung reached for my hand on his belly and started playing with my fingers. „Even though you're gone, don't you think we should like...try it?".

I frowned slightly. „Try what?".

„Why don't we try to actually date? Like, long distance, you know?".

I blinked a few times to realize what he was talking about. „You won't listen to me, right?". I glared up at him with a smirk.

„I mean, don't you think it would be kinda fun to keep it secret?".

With a sight, I propped myself up a little. „It won't solve any problems. It will only make them worse.". I explained. „What when I come back? You want to continue keeping it secret? I don't think it'll work.".
