 ~the bathroom memory~

- weeks later -

It's been a few weeks now since that incident and you both came to an agreement to try save this almost dead relationship, it wasn't easy since you both had grown accustomed to not being around each other and viewing each other nothing more than platonic roommates rather than husband and wife

6:35AM

you were getting ready for work as usual, sitting at your vanity putting makeup on, this time you could feel a pair of eyes on you. You looked through the mirror only to be met with beomgyu's gaze


"Is something wrong? you've been staring at me without saying anything.." You said breaking the awkward silence "oh no- I was just thinking about something.." he said rather quickly in reply.

Silence filled the air only for a little bit until he continued


"well, I was thinking maybe we could eat dinner together-? I could bring something home- that is if you don't get off of work late" he said rather shyly? Which was weird? He wasn't acting like his usual self which was always being annoyed and rather short tempered


"oh- I mean sure I guess..? That's fine.. I'll text you when I get off of work" ending the conversation there, clearly you did not want to continue this conversation with him so beomgyu nodded his head


"don't forget to let me know , please?" he said almost with the most desperate eyes, like a child pleading to their parent not to forget something. You were taken aback by his persistency, but you didn't care for whatever reason he was acting this way, your eyes shifted from him back to your vanity mirror so you could continue getting ready for work.

You make it home as usual, as you open the door you're greeted with a nice meal at the table. The table was all set up with plates, utensils and of course the food was there which made you smile slightly at the preparation put into this. The only thing that was missing was the person who set it all up, his car was in the driveway which meant he had to be in the house somewhere



"Beomgyu-?" you said walking through the quiet house, a few seconds went by and no one replied. Was this some sick joke? You walked to the living room still not finding anyone you decide to look at the last place, your bedroom. When you walked in the lights in the room were off expect the lights to the bathroom, the figure was looking into the mirror with a towel clenched in his hand dabbing it on his face. You walked up closer not saying anything yet to see what he was doing.
