It's Complicated

40: Lazy Day

You wake up the next morning, the soft sunlight streaming in through the window. The faint sound of a humming melody drifts from the kitchen, and you blink, still groggy, as you recall the events that happened the previous night.

Curiosity nudges you out of bed. The smell of something cooking fills the air, making your stomach rumble. You shuffle your way out of the bedroom and toward the kitchen.

There, Yoongi stands by the stove, his back to you, absorbed in what he's doing. The soft hum continues, a quiet but comforting tune, and you can't help but smile to yourself as you take in the peaceful moment.

You sit at the counter, the chair creaking under you. Yoongi turns, his face lighting up when he sees you. The warmth of his presence, the little crinkle at the corner of his eyes as he smiles—it's enough to melt your heart.

"Good morning," he says, his voice soft but filled with affection.

"Morning," you reply, a little shyly. There's something about his gaze that always makes you feel both grounded and slightly breathless at the same time.

"I'm making breakfast... hungry?" He raises an eyebrow, a gentle grin playing on his lips.

You nod, "What are you making?"

He chuckles softly, the sound a little low and teasing. "Something special," he replies, already turning back to the stove with a quiet confidence that makes you feel completely at ease in his presence.

As you watch him, you wonder if he knows how much you love these little moments with him, the shared silences, the quiet comfort of being in the same space, doing something as simple as sharing a meal together.

Yoongi finishes plating the meal, carefully arranging the bacon, eggs, and French toast, the smell tantalizing and making your stomach growl louder. He brings the two plates over to the counter, setting one in front of you before sliding into the seat across from you with a soft, satisfied sigh.

"Enjoy," he says, his smile warm, and you can't help but feel a little flutter in your chest.

You look down at the spread in front of you, your mouth watering. "Yum, this looks amazing!" you say, already picking up your fork. The French toast is light, fluffy, and just the right amount of sweetness, like it melts in your mouth. You take another bite, savoring the taste. "This is soooo good."

He laughs quietly, leaning back in his seat, his eyes glimmering with a quiet pride. "I may have picked up a few things," he says, his voice teasing but soft. "Glad you like it."

As you take another bite, he leans forward, a slight twinkle in his eyes as he watches you. "I have today off work... is there anything you want to do?"

You glance up at him, feeling a warmth spread through you at the thought of spending the day with him. The idea of just being together—no plans, no expectations—feels like exactly what you need. A lazy day, filled with simple moments. You take a moment, chewing thoughtfully.

"Well... I don't know," you say, "I guess I could use a lazy day. Maybe a walk, or just hanging out... Whatever you feel like, I'm good with it."

Yoongi's smile grows wider, and he nods, as if he already knew that was the answer. "I like that idea. How about we go out for a walk later and just see where the day takes us? No rush."

You grin, your heart lifting at the thought. "Sounds perfect."

After everything that had happened recently, you could feel the weight of the world slowly lifting off your shoulders. A quiet day with Yoongi was exactly what you needed—just the space to relax, take a deep breath, and unwind without any pressure.
