Ricky couldn't help but notice how strange his roommate has been acting over past few weeks. Stuttering when talking to Ricky, keeping a physical distance from him, coming up with excuses to avoid being with him. It was starting to worry Ricky, what if he dislikes him? If Ricky were to be completely honest, he really enjoyed having Gyuvin as his roommate. The other's extroverted personality went well with his own introverted self.

He was very fond of Gyuvin, but now he's not sure if the other feels the same. It had been a few months since they began sharing spaces, and everything seemed to go smoothly for them. So to say that Ricky is confused over Gyuvin's reoccurring absence would be an understatement.

"I'm going out with a few friends, so I'll be back late." Gyuvin slipped into his shoes and looked up at Ricky sitting propped up against the couch. He answered by giving a quick nod. Gyuvin pursed his lips together awkwardly and waved before leaving out the door. Ricky sighed and boredly pouted his lips. His only company was gone again, so now he was left in his own thoughts and feelings.

Ricky did enjoy being by himself from time to time. Watching kdramas, eating food without sharing, listening to music, etc. However, there's a big difference between being alone and lonely. Lately, he's not been able to be around people as much as he used to. His friends are often busy with school, and having different schedules messes things up even more. Being in a foreign country without any family also makes it difficult for him to talk to anybody in person.

The only person he's really able to talk to and be with is Gyuvin. But the younger just doesn't seem to want to be around him. Ricky let his head rest on the couch as he closed his eyes. Slowly he felt himself slipping away into dreamland. Falling asleep this early into the night wasn't like him, but maybe it's a sign that he needs more sleep.

Ricky was awoken by fumbling around him. As he opened his eyes and stretched his stiff neck he spotted Gyuvin leaning against the hallway wall, mumbling incoherent gibberish. His body was swaying and he looked like he could fall over any second. Ricky, not feeling like taking his roommate to the hospital with a broken skull, lifted himself up from the very comfortable couch. With careful steps not to startle the drunken guy, he made his way towards him.

Gyuvin must've noticed the other's presence, because he opened his eyes and gave Ricky a sheepish looking smile. "Lickyyy~ I'm.. home~" He slurred his words and fought to keep his head upright. His feet stumbled over one another, attempting to take his shoes off. "Jeez.. how much did he have?" Ricky sighed under his breath and stepped forward to give him a hand. He crouched down and sat on his knees before tapping on Gyuvin's left foot, signaling for him to lift it.

Although he was black out drunk, he apparently wasn't completely crackbrained, because he slowly raised his foot. Ricky fought for a while but managed to remove the shoe and tapped on the right one to repeat the same thing. This time Gyuvin didn't lift his foot, only mumbling about something Ricky couldn't understand. He grabbed onto the foot and forcibly raised it.

This appeared to have made Gyuvin loose what little balance he had left. Ricky felt the other grab onto his head to steady himself, but he couldn't care about losing a few hair strands in this moment. As long as Gyuvin doesn't collapse over him, he can do whatever. He continued to try and wiggle the shoe off, and finally managed to get it off. Ricky placed his two hands on the ground to get up but was unable to because of a hand pushing him down. He sighed and grabbed onto the hand on his head to remove it.

But instead, the grip on his hair tightened and he felt his head being pulled back, making him look up straight into the other's eyes. Gyuvin blinked slowly at the one knelt down in front him and for a second Ricky felt himself starting to feel hot inside. "You look...pretty.. like this." It came out as low mumbling, but Ricky heard it clearly. In one quick movement, Ricky peered off the hand on his head and stood up. He swallowed thickly and wiped his sweaty hands on his pants. "le-let's get this jacket off."

Thankfully, this time Gyuvin stood still and let him take his jacket off without saying anything. Ricky hesitantly swung an arm around Gyuvin's torso and let the other one put his arm over his shoulder. By holding his hand steadily, he managed to wobbily lead Gyuvin to his room. As if this midnight workout couldn't get any worse, drunk Gyuvin grabbed onto Ricky's hand and pulled him away.

"I can.. do it myself." He whined like a child and slumped down on his bed. "Alright, I'll leave then." Just as Ricky turned to walk out, a hand connected with his and he was forced to step back. He sighed for what seemed like the 10th time and turned back to face Gyuvin. What he wasn't expecting however, was to see the other's eyes glossy. "Woah woah, are you crying?" Ricky was pulled closer so he stood in between Gyuvin's legs. The younger leaned his forehead against Ricky's stomach and sighed.

"Gyuvin? Are you alright?" Gyuvin shook his head slowly and raised it to make eye contact again. "I'm a bad roommate.." Ricky furrowed his eyebrows and was about to answer but Gyuvin continued. "You probably.. think I hate you or something." He blinked and for a second Ricky really thought he was about to burst into tears. "But..I think I'm in love with you...Shen Ricky." As soon as he spoke he let his head fall sloppily down as his upper body swayed, clearly still intoxicated.

Ricky's heart began beating faster than he'd ever felt and he swallowed, feeling like he could pass out any second. If Gyuvin wasn't completely besotted, could he have actually meant that? Ricky felt the other let go of his hands and in a panic state he quickly grabbed them again. He was afraid that if he let him go he may never have him again. "You'll most likely wake up and not remember what I'm about to say but I'll do it anyway."

Ricky felt like crying. Not from sadness, but embarrassment. He's never confessed before, and definitely not to a drunken person.
"I think I'm in love with you too, Kim Gyuvin." Gyuvin raised his head and blinked away his tears before wrapping his arms around Ricky's waist. "Sleep with me.." Ricky's eyes widened at that and peeled Gyuvin away from him by his shoulders. "What?" He looked at the other astonishingly. Gyuvin just patted the bed and pouted with his lips. "I'm not...that bad at cuddling.."

Ricky let out a breath as he realized there was no sexual intention with that sentence. He thought the other had actually gone mad for a second there.. But after further thought, the words still made him feel hot inside. Him and Gyuvin sleeping in the same bed was not on his bucket list, but if he walked out of this room now, he'll never feel his heart beating like this again. So with hesitation he nodded. "Okay, I'll stay." Gyuvin gave him that stupid kiddish smile and scrambled to lay down and make place.

Ricky sat down and didn't have time to lay down before his body was pulled down. His eyes once again met those big boba looking ones. "If you stay all night.. I won't forget what you said." He mumbled and let his right hand carefully rest on Ricky's waist. "May I?" Ricky blinked a few times before nodding, letting his body be engulfed by the other. The smell of alcohol seeped into his nose as his head made contact with Gyuvin's chest. He felt his and the other's heartbeats synchronize as if they were one.

"Goodnight, Kim Ricky."
