Half asleep, Hyunjin groaned softly in protest, wrapping his arms around Felix and nuzzling his head on the younger's shoulder.

Felix looked over with an amused expression. Hyunjin always seemed so calm and collected and cool. Yet here he is, cuddling him and inhaling deeply with a small smile. He couldn't help but coo. It was too cute.

"Jinnie...~" The younger sang.

"Hm?" Hyunjin responded groggily.

"You have to go to bed, baby." Felix chuckled.

"No. The bed is yours.." The stubborn artist mumbled sleepily.

"We made a deal. I wouldn't stay at the center if you let me sleep on the couch." Felix reminded.

Hyunjin kept his eyes closed but held up his finger. "No, we made a deal that I would think about it. Well, I thought about it, and you're getting the bed."

Felix rolled his eyes and huffed. "What will it take to get you to sleep in the bed?" He negotiated stubbornly.

"Come with me." Hyunjin responded nonchalantly.

Felix's eyes widened slightly and he felt his heartbeat quicken. "What?"

"Sleep in the bed with me, or I'm sleeping on the couch. Take your pick." He shrugged as he let out a yawn and stood up, walking towards the bathroom.

"But... I don't know, Hyunjin..." Felix hesitantly stated with panic in his voice.

The older popped his face through the doorway of the bathroom with a toothbrush hanging out of his mouth. "Angel.. you don't have to worry about me.." He mumbled out as best he could without spitting toothpaste everywhere. He sighed and went to spit it out, rinsing his mouth out after.

When he made it back to the couch he crouched down in front of Felix. "I can sleep on the couch. I'll be ok, Angel." He smiled reassuringly.

Felix bit his lip in contemplation. "What if... I joined you?" He asked hesitantly.

"Then we can make a pillow wall if you wanted, or I sleep in a jacket on top of the covers. I just want you comfortable." Hyunjin responded sweetly, taking one of his hands.

"What if I didn't want a pillow wall or for you to sleep on top of the covers..?" Felix asked nervously with a slight blush.

Hyunjin looked Felix and stroked the back of his hand. "Then I can be as close or as far as you want."

The younger thought about it for a moment before nodding his head. "I'll join you.. I apologize in advance if I cuddle you in my sleep." He chuckled nervously. "Do you happen to have an extra toothbrush?" He asked hesitantly.

Hyunjin scoffed, "What in the world makes you think I would mind that." He laughed. "Yeah I have a toothbrush." He nodded and walked into the bathroom, taking a new toothbrush out of the drawer and holding it out for Felix to grab.

"Go ahead and do whatever you need, I'll go change and put the pizza away."

Felix nervously splashed water on his face and looked in the mirror, taking a deep breath to calm his racing heart. How was Hyunjin so calm about this? He hadn't slept in the same bed with someone he was attracted to, had such a hard time restraining around, since he first started dating Wooyoung. He just had to trust Hyunjin. Well.. trusting Hyunjin wasn't the problem.. he needed to trust himself.

Once he came out of the bathroom, Hyunjin was lying under the covers, scrolling through his phone. With hesitant steps, he walked over to the bed and raised the covers, laying down next to Hyunjin.
