Chapter 18

JAEHYUN HAD WAKEN UP FROM HIS SLEEP AFTER A GOOD THIRTY MINUTES feeling the heat around his head become too much. He grumbled and suddenly became a lot more aware of the hands gently wrapped around his waist, he yelped in surprise. Remus his eyes immediately fluttered open in surprise, his grip tightening around Jaehyun, scared that the boy might have slipped. "You okay?" Remus quickly asked, his eyes scanning over Jaehyun trying to see if any harm was done but he didn't find anything. He locked eyes with the boy who was blushing like a mad man.

"Yeah! I'm- I'm fine." Jaehyun quickly reassured feeling the heat pool in his cheeks. He awkwardly coughed and looked away. "Sorry for falling asleep on you like umh.. this." The boy barely mumbled out, he felt the embarrassment flood over his body. If you compared Jaehyun to a strawberry you would only know the difference between them because Jaehyun his hair wasn't painted in a thick green colour. Remus his eyes widened and he quickly let go of Jaehyun his waist, the werewolf coughed embarrassed and looked away.

"It's nothing.. Honestly, it was comfortable actually." Remus explained sheepishly, turning red by just a bit which made Jaehyun almost laugh if he hadn't been this embarrassed himself. They stared at each other for a second, and maybe the world did stop for them. Jaehyun his breathing quickened as he felt his heartbeat beat at such an alarming speed he thought he might need to go to the hospital wing. Under the dimly lit room, lighting of the sunset peeking through the blinds Remus saw how gorgeous Jaehyun his eyes truly were up close. The brown pair of eyes staring directly into his made the Lupin boy swallow thickly and cough embarrassed as he quickly looked away.

Remus didn't think he could possibly be in love with Jaehyun, that would be ridiculous and honestly delusional of him to think that someone as beautiful as Jaehyun could ever like him out of all of the boys he could choose from. He had had feelings before, he knew he did. He had liked a boy back in his fourth year, he was a year above him. His name was Carlo and he was a Gryffindor like him, they often exchanged glances at the library but it never came down to any talking. Remus knew he liked the boy because he was constantly on his mind for weeks at an end, and then it all came plummeting down onto him like a waterfall when he saw Carlo kiss a girl during dinner.

He hadn't told his friends why his sudden hunger had been gone and had left his friends alone for the rest of the evening. Carlo tried to wait for Remus in the library like usual, sitting in the spot where he knew Remus sat not too far from but he never showed, never again. That was the end of his silly little crush.

Remus knew this was different though.

Jaehyun his opinions made such an impact on his choices and the way he views life it was astonishing. He had never cared or changed his ways purely for a boy he got along with but he would and did for Jaehyun. If he was honest with himself he would kill anyone who even dared to hurt his boy, his soul seemed so fragile it broke his heart. Jaehyun was too kind for this world, too perfect. Everything he did was perfect in Remus his opinion. Of course you had James who had the ego of someone who thought they were perfect but he wasn't perfect.

He had heard James cry in the middle of the night when people were almost waking up to get ready, heard him sob in the bathroom calling himself names Remus was familiar with because he carved those names into his own mind. James Potter wasn't perfect.

But Jaehyun was.

Jaehyun had a problematic past but that didn't matter. Jaehyun was perfect, there was no possible outcome where Remus didn't find an excuse to call this pretty boy perfect. He knew Jaehyun had gotten bullied before, pretty much everyone at their school did. Whenever you saw McGonagall scold Seohyun when his face seemed either bloody or beaming with pride it was always because he had beaten up someone who had thrown an insult Jaehyun his direction. Remus had known Jaehyun existed before this year, everyone knew Jaehyun Ryu, the brother of the boy who somehow never gets suspended from the Quidditch team.
