Make You Feel My Love

New Dawn

Changbin POV

The birds were chirping, the sun was up and I felt...spectacular.

Okay, spectacular might be a bit of a stretch, but I certainly felt human for the first time in days.

I sat up, the heaviness of sleep still clinging to me as I peeled Hyunjin's long arm off me, stretching as I reveled in being able to breathe out of both nostrils once more. I twisted, looking down at my gorgeous boyfriend...lover...partner...husband if I were being honest, smiling at the way his plump lips fell open in sleep, his breath hitching lighting as his chest rose and fell.

I reached out, my finger poking his pink lower lip, the small touch making him make a cute sound and roll onto his side, burrowing his face in the pillow. I chuckled, finding my way out of the bed, grabbing my phone on the way to the bathroom, checking to see if Felix had made it home yet. I reread over the short text thread from the night before, reminding my brain of the exchange.

Text from My Sun

My Sun: On my way home, love!

Me: Good, Cutie. Fair warning, 

Hyune and I are sick.

My Sun: how sick?

My Sun: are you okay?

Me: fever. Cough, sinus. 

Don't come in the bedroom.

My Sun: oh.

My Sun: I miss you... 

I really need cuddles tonight.

The thread paused, I knew I had fallen asleep, exhaustion and cold meds making it impossible for me to stay awake. A couple hours later, more messages had come in.

My Sun: Don't worry, I'm gonna crash at Minho's

My Sun: feel better.

That had been... abrupt and one sided. I hoped he wasn't upset, but- at least I knew Felix wouldn't be suffering from our germs. I set my phone on the counter, turning on the shower, needing to rinse off the cloying remnants of illness, the feel of the hot water hitting my skin making me groan in relief.

I thought about my freckled husband, smiling as I imagined being able to hug him, kiss him- fold him into my arms along with Hyunjin- all of us together again after a long two weeks of conflicting schedules.

I finished, brushing my teeth and shaving for the first time in days, taking in my disheveled state with a grimace. My muscles were sore from lack of exercise and no doubt lingering effects of being sick. I stretched as I went through my routine, pulling on a fresh pair of boxers and doing squats and lunges while I brushed my teeth, the small movement helping me loosen up some. I whistled, wandering back to the bedroom, finding Hyunjin in the center of the massive bed, completely burritoed in the blankets, snoring softly.

Cute.

I didn't want to wake him, not sure if he was feeling as improved as I was, so I dressed quietly, pulling on jeans and a black t shirt, thinking I'd very much like to see Felix. I put on socks and shoes, texting Minho as I did- not wanting to surprise anyone so early.
