"Are you ok?"

"What?" You looked up at him confused by the sudden words that escaped his soft lips.

"Do you remember?" he caugh your gaze, eyes as dark and deep as the night.

"What are you talking about at this hour, Jungkook?" you placed your head back on his shoulder as your left hand rested on his chest.

"The first words you said to me...."

"Of course I remember. You were a bloody mess back then." you held back a giggle as you felt your eyelids become heavier and heavier, your ears focusing on his husky voice.

"Yeah" he chuckled, his eyes fixed on the ceiling of your tiny bedroom, his mind lost in images of a time long gone.

"About that...I have something to tell you..." he continued with a low tone that concealed some sort of concern.

"Jungkook-ah....can we do this tomorrow?" your voice came out more like a whisper as you felt the tiredness become unbearable. "I am so tired...."

"Oh, I'm sorry, baby, you're right. It doesn't matter. We'll talk about it another time." he pressed his lips lightly on your forehead, his soft fingers tracing small circles on your arm. "Sleep well."

"Uhmm..." you hummed as you finally let yourself dive into dreamland, falling asleep within seconds.

"I love you. I will do anything to keep you safe. Even if it means getting hurt in the process. Thank you for being here. Thank you for being there at that time...Please don't leave my side...ever. I surely won't..." he muttered to himself before placing another kiss on your forehead, this time deeper, like he wanted to let you know just how much he came to care for you, like a symbol of an oath that he was never to break. And just like that he would fall asleep with you in his arms, assured that no one would take you away from him.

It was the smell of freshly brewed coffee and white rays of sun that fought their way through your closed curtains and into the low lit room that woke you up the next morning. You blinked a few times giving your eyes time to adjust before arching your back and stretching as far as the bed allowed it.

"You up, baby?" Jungkook said peeking through the slightly open door, a warm smile forming on his face. His hair was a mess, strokes of dark brown hair falling on parts of his forehead while others were curled in all directions following no specific order, the collar of his white T-shirt fallen off of one of his shoulders giving you free sight of his protuberant collarbone as he leaned against the doorframe. It was the view you always loved waking up to. And it's been a while since you were able to enjoy it after you two decided to move together a few weeks ago. It was everything you ever wanted.
