When you are overworked

"It's not working!" You yelled as you slammed your hands down on the piano, making your piano coach jump a little. "Not yet, but it will. You should just..." "No!" You interrupted her and you took a step back from the piano and threw your papers on the floor. "It's not working, and it's not gonna work. I can't do it okay, face it!" You screamed and you rubbed your fingers over your temples in hopes that your headache would stop.


It was 10 PM now and you were still in the SM building. You had promised your boyfriend that you would be home early today, but that promise was already broken. You were already here from 6 AM in the morning. You had done the freaking same thing all day, trying to rehearse your newest song, but you just couldn't do it. You couldn't remember the lyrics, or the dance moves. You couldn't catch the high notes, or remember the piano keys. You practically hadn't eaten anything this day and you were tired. Your head hurt from all the thinking and concentrating all day and you had the urge to just start crying because nothing worked out the way you wanted it to.


You sighed and opened your eyes. "I'm sorry." You said as you saw your coach looking down on the piano with a hurt look. Now you didn't only screw up your song but you also made the people around you feel bad, great! Could this day become any better? "Let's take a break _________-ah, you're tired. Let's try this again tomorrow." The thought of not finishing this today and having to go through the same kind of shit tomorrow made you feel miserable. "No, I'm fine. I'm just a little angry at myself that's it." You managed to give her a little smile, but on her face you could see it wasn't very convincing. "You're overworked __________. Take a break, if you go on like this it won't take long anymore until you're going to break down." She continued and again you felt your anger rise inside of you. "What do you even know about that?" You crossed your arms over your chest as you stared blankly to the floor. Actually you knew she was right.

The last few months you had worked this hard that you had worked longer than you had slept. You also knew you needed a break, your brain told you every day, but you just refused to listen to it. Your head snapped in the direction of the door when you heard it open. A little smile appeared on your face as you saw the beautiful guy staring at you from the doorway. "You're late." He said before he moved closer and brushed your hair out of your face. "I know, I'm sorry." You looked at how your coach stood straight and cleared her throat. "I'll leave the two of you alone. _________-ah, why don't you take a day off tomorrow, I think you need it." After she said that she said goodbye to you and Baekhyun and headed out of the practice room.


You groaned softly while you put your head against Baekhyun's chest and grabbed his shirt. "What's wrong _________?" He asked while he smoothed out your hair with one hand and rubbed your back with the other one. "It's just not working." You muttered as tears filled your eyes. "I can't do anything right, I'm a failure." You sobbed. "No, you're not. You just need some rest that's all." He wrapped his arms around you and laid his head on your hair. "You're not the first one who told me that." "Then why don't you listen for this one time__________-ah?"

You shrugged and Baekhyun let you go so he could look at you. "Okay, this ends now." He said as he grabbed your hand and lead you to the wall. There he sat on the floor and pulled you with him so you were sitting in between his legs with your back against his chest. "What are you doing?" You nagged but he chuckled lightly making all of the hairs on your neck raise. "Nothing, I'm doing nothing. Let's just sit here for a moment and do nothing at all." He played with your fingers while his head was on your shoulder.


You actually felt really peaceful at this moment. You could feel Baekhyun's slow heartbeat against your back which made you relax. His tickling breath was warming your neck while his nose was against your ear. His tight grip around you made you feel safe and loved, like you were the only girl on this planet. You missed this, just sitting and doing nothing. Maybe everyone was right and you should do this more often.

You felt how you began to get really tired. Your eyelids became heavy and blinking was difficult. Your breathing became very stable as your chest went slowly up and down. And you had the urge to just think about stupid and ridiculous things. "Baek?" You mumbled as you rested your whole body against his. "Mmmmmh?" His voice was a little husky because the two of you hadn't spoken for a while. "I'm tired." You said as you closed your eyes and grabbed a hold of Baekhyun's arms which were still around your waist. "Then sleep, I'll take you home. I love you jagi." A grin covered your face as you slowly fell into a comfortable sleep, not even waking up when Baekhyun carried you home.
