Bodyguard | Heesun

Sunoo got so used to waking up next to Heeseung that waking up alone in his bed feels weird. Fluffy barks at him at the feet of the bed as if Sunoo's thoughts insulted him because he is not technically alone in his bed.

He checks his new phone and smiles when he sees a new message on his screen. The good thing about having a new number is that he doesn't need to worry about unwanted people calling him or reaching out to torment him.

He smiles at the contact name, feeling a bit silly.

They've been good. Kept things professional until they were behind the safety of Sunoo's apartment's walls. It's not like Sunoo's had many schedules these days, and the few he had he went to very unwillingly. The company sent him a recording calendar for his new single that he's been ignoring for a few days now because he hopes that he won't need to go.

Heeseung got him a meeting with Sunghoon so they can finally talk about his contract and hopefully, get him out of it, too.

He's scared, and he barely slept last night thinking about what to tell Sunghoon, how to explain everything in a way that won't end up putting him in a bad light.

But at least Heeseung will be there with him, to hold him through it, to speak for him if Sunoo's words get stuck in his throat.

He'll be there to kiss him after, too.

At the thought of his kisses, Sunoo smiles again, licking his lips as if he could still taste Heeseung's lip balm from yesterday.

Fluffy barks again, and Sunoo groans.

"God, yes, one second." And he gets out of bed and gets ready to go take him out for his morning walk.

They went to get him a few days ago and Sunoo's mother was so pleased when she saw Sunoo walk into the house with Heeseung's hand in his. He didn't need to tell her anything for her to know.

He puts the leash on Fluffy and gets out of the house. It's too early to run into anyone, which is the best time for him to go out, considering.

Mr. Yeo greets him good morning when they walk past and Sunoo smiles at him as well. And, through the walk, Sunoo listens to his album. The one that has been rejected by the company. The one he poured his heart and soul into.

And it's so good.

Judging by the time Heeseung sent him the texts, he figures there's no way he's awake already, but Sunoo still decides to video call him.

He picks up after just a few rings and Sunoo can't help but laugh at the messy hair and sleepy face Heeseung greets him with.

"'morning baby," he mumbles drowsily, rubbing the sleepiness out of his eyes with a smile. Although he tries to hide his naked body under the sheets, Sunoo can still see his chest and his full tattooed sleeve clearly. He tries very hard not to get dizzy and pass out as his dog keeps pulling him forward. "Does my sweet little cub miss me so early in the morning?"

"How do you know I'm not calling because something bad happened?" Sunoo chuckles, but before Heeseung can even dare to worry, he speaks again. "Yeah, of course, I do," he admits, wanting to press a kiss on the screen as if that could somehow reach him. "Sorry, I woke you, though."

Heeseung hums with a shake of his head, still sleepy when he rasps, "If I could wake up to your pretty face this way whenever you're not sleeping with me, I'll never complain. This is nice."
