It's 12 am and all you need is to drowse off into sleep but all you can think of is your hard-working boyfriend, slaving away at dance routine for hours coming back home exhausted. You hated to see him come home exhausted and just collapsing on the bed without even being able to eat before having to bustle out of bed again at 6 am.
Every time he stumbled in late at night, you pretended to sleep not wanting to worry him. You could hear him stripping off his sweaty jacket and sighing before wrapping himself around you before lightly whispering, "I love you."
Every night, day after day, this was the only interaction you ever had together as a couple. Constant bustling back and forth of busy schedules, light kisses in passing as one of you leave out the door while the other stumbles in for a two hour nap. It was a tireless cycle and all you wanted was to sit in front of your boyfriend like a normal couple and eat breakfast together or cuddle late into the night while watching dramas.
After almost 6 months of the endless cycle, you decided that for once, you'd greet your exhausted boyfriend. Sitting on the couch while reading a book you waited for the keys to jingle into the lock before standing up and greeting him.
"Hi babe, how are you feeling?"
"Eh, okay. Why you up so late, go to bed." He brushed past you without even considering your feelings. All the pent up frustration built up from six months exploded.
"This can't work anymore, I don't want this."
Your boyfriend stared blankly at you as he was halfway taking off his coat. "What? You're just exhausted, let's go to bed okay?" He reached for your hand with a tired smile.
"No Chanyeol, we're talking about this now. I'm sick and tired of being neglected. I'm not important anymore, I get that you're busy... but didn't you ever stop to think that I need you too? I'm sick and tired of just seeing you in passing and not feeling loved. I just want a regular date with you, I want to walk down the street holding hands with you or drink coffee at a cafe."
Chanyeol frustratedly raked his fingers through his hair before sighing, "Y/N, babe... I'm sorry. You know how hard it is for me. It couldn't have been easy for you for these past couple months. I know you never would complain unless it was really bad. I'm sorry, but you know that it's going to be hard... we're always on tour, there's always some kind comeback to get ready for. Please, I'll make sure to make more space in my schedule for you, I just don't want to lose you. Please please please don't leave me, I don't know what I'd do without you." He reached for your hand and looked down at you with tears glistening in his eyes.
Smiling softly at him, you reached for his hand and reassuringly smiled at him. He quickly brought you into his warm embrace, placing one hand comfortingly around your waist and the other on your head. You closed your eyes and smiled, capturing this singular moment of just you and Chanyeol.
"You're everything I need in this world, my fame will come and go... But I just need you to always be by my side. I love you, Y/N."
