"Where The Dark Ends"... [𝕄𝕚𝕟𝕤𝕦𝕟𝕘]

CHAPTER 7:: A nightmare.

Finished about 6 movies, we've decided to go to sleep late and just enjoy the night. I noticed how hyunjin was cuddling with jeongin, Felix was cuddling with Changbin hyung and seungmin and chan hyung were cuddling as friends. The only people in the room who were not not making any skin contact was me and Minho. I started feeling kinda lonely, wish I had someone to cuddle too.

I looked at Minho, admiring his sharp side profile. He was focused on the movie. I wish I could touch his face, he looks so hot-  What's wrong with you jisung what are you thinking?
My breath hitched when I felt a hand on my thigh, I slowly looked down to see who it was, then I looked at Minho, he was still staring at the movie with an unbothered expression, while his hand is slowly running over my thigh?! I think I'm dreaming or something. Minho wouldn't touch me like that, right?

I pinched myself to wake up to reality and I flinch by my own pinch. Noticing my flinch, Minho immediately moved his hand away and everyone was staring at me.

"Jisung, you scared already?" Chan says with a cheeky grin. I glanced at the TV and noticed that it was a horror movie. I haven't even noticed much before cause I was too focused on Minho. They probably now think that I flinched because I was scared.

"Uhm..n-no"  I look so red and flustered because of just one little touch from Minho. I hope it's not too obvious..

Why did Minho touch my thigh all of a sudden? Did I do something to distract him? I had so many questions in my head. But I couldn't deny that.. Minho's touch felt....warm, and I secretly wished he would touch me more.

Me and Minho ended up in the same bed. I can't believe they set me up with Minho!! I could've slept with jeongin or Felix or something, it's better than sleeping with Minho cause I'd probably feel hard the whole night if he's laying beside me. But no fair, Felix was with his precious boyfriend changbin and jeongin was sleeping with hyunjin. Man I suddenly regret not leaving earlier. Where's Minho though? He's not in the room yet..

I hesitately whispered a little "..minho..?"

I stared at Minho when he came in the same way Felix stared at changbin. He's so sexy that it hurts. Wow, I've now realized that Felix and jeongin were right, I really am a simp.

03:23 AM.

I can't sleep, Minho beside me was already sleeping but I felt tension in the air. I felt so hot, I felt strangely uncomfortable but comfortable.

"m..mama"

My heart skipped a beat when I heard a voice. I looked at Minho and noticed that he was mumbling in his sleep..

"mom..where are you?"

I felt pain in my hurt when Minho said that. Poor min... he's probably having dreams about his mother. I didn't want to remember the sad reality, I glanced at Minho again and my eyes widen when I saw tears rolling down his cheek. I didn't know he cried in his sleep.. I want to comfort him, to hold him so badly, but will it be okay..?

I slowly scoot closer to Minho and wipe his tears away from his cheek, his sleeping expression looked pained.

"Minho.." I whispered. Caressing his cheek gently.

"Minho I'm here.., don't cry okay..? I'm here.. everythings okay..your mom is in your heart.." i felt dumb when I tried to comfort him. I never knew how to properly comfort someone who lost their mother. But I wanted to cheer up Minho in any way I can.

I immediately moved my hand away when Minho's eyes snapped open and he stared at me with wide eyes. I realized how close our faces were and I felt a mixture of embarrassment and need to comfort him.

"Uhm-.." I create a distance between us quickly.

I shyly mumbled, avoiding eye contact. "I'm sorry..I was just-"

"You don't have to apologize."

Oh, I expected him to lash out at me for touching him or something..

"You...were having a nightmare..and I want to comfort you"

"Why do you want to comfort me?" He asked, his expression hard.

"Is that a question? I want to comfort you because i care about you" I swear the words slipped out of my mouth. Minho stared at me in disbelief for a second, then spoke up.

"No you don't."

I was confused, I really do, why is it so hard to believe?

"I do." 

"NO DAMNIT YOU DON'T."

I flinched when he suddenly raised his voice. Did I say something wrong..?
He got up from the bed and paced back and forth for a minute, looking mad.

"Min-"

"YOU ONLY SAY THAT BECAUSE OF MY LOOKS AND FAME. YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT ME, JISUNG."

I felt like crying. I don't know why but I feel like I did something to disappoint him.

"m-minho that's not true i-i really care about you-.." my voice started to break. I took a deep breath and continued. "It's not just your looks, or your fame, I don't care about your fame. I genuinely care about you and I really mean it. I honestly love everything about you, I know you care about your friends too, I love the real you in you, I love the way you cook, I love the way you show affection, I love the way how you're able to keep your mind so strong..I love the way you show care, I love your smile, I love everything about you and I really care about you Minho..and I mean every word I'm speaking right now, please believe me, Minho.." I didn't know how I managed to say them but my heart spoke on its own. I don't know if I should be saying those to him right now, I feel like I'm too early.. but I really do want him to know that I actually care about him.

"you...love me?" He said in disbelief.

Did I just confess to him? Oh my god..

"I-i.."

Minho sat beside me and avoided any eye contact, he spoke in a low tone.

"Prove it."

How am I supposed to prove it to him?! I just explained a whole paragraph to him.
I took a deep breath. "I'll prove it to you.."

I hope he'll understand that my way to show love is physical touch.

~Guess what'll happen next 👀.
