You brushed off your hands and pushed a stray strands of hair behind your ears. Your eyes examined the room that was practically empty. Only light and a few towers of cardboard boxes were scattered across the dark hardwood floor. You heard a small creak as the front door open from behind you, more light poured into the room.

"Where should I put these ones?" Your vision was pulled from the cardboard boxes, and brought onto Saeyoung who had his arms full with little accents like pictures and vases for decoration. He had so many that they piled up covering his eyes. You let of a soft giggle. Walking up to him you took a few objects off of the pile he held.

"Follow me." You said tilting your head and spinning around on your heel. You walked over to an empty spot on the floor. Gently you placed down everything in your arms. You took a few steps back. Saeyoung bent down to place everything he had where you asked him to.

"Thank you babe." You smiled and walked up to him.

"Your welcome." He wrapped his arms around your waist and pulled you into a hug. You buried your head into his chest inhaling his scent, of course he smelled like honey buddha chips. You felt him play with the ends of your hair."We should probably start unpacking." Saeyoung whispered into your ear placing a soft kiss onto your temple.

A small sigh left your lips, "It just seems like so much work." The idea of having to unpack all the boxes, and set up each room to perfection didn't excite you.

"It'll pay off in the end." Saeyoung pulled away while holding your hands and smiling.

"You're right." You smiled back at him. "Where should we start?" Your eyes wandered the room.

"How about you start in the in the kitchen, it won't be that hard cause you'll only need to set up some appliances and put away some tableware. I'll start here and set up the living room." Saeyoung insisted."To make things more interesting, we'll have a competition to see who does a better job decorating their room."

"Sounds good." You chimed, "I'll be off then!" You wanted to get a good start on decorating so you could win. After all you couldn't let Saeyoung beat you.

A two hours later you were finished. All of the dishes, cups, mugs, pots, pans, and silverware were put away neatly. You set up the coffee machine, toaster, and microwave. To decorate the kitchen, you placed potted plants and some cook books on shelves. Everything was very bright and clean, just how you and Saeyoung liked it.

"It looks good in hear." You heard someone say, turning around you saw Saeyoung standing in the doorway leaning against the frame of the entrance."But I think I've won."

"No way you topped this." You said with a proud look on your face."Did you finish?"

"Yes I did wanna take a look?" Saeyoung said stepping out of your way so you could walk towards the living room. Once you got there you looked at everything closely. Saeyoung didn't do a bad job, his set up was actually really good. He built the couch and coffee table. He also set up the tv and some curtains. A rug was laying across the floor and pictures were hanging.

"Did I do good or what?" Saeyoung said proudly.

"You did ok." You laughed trying to cover up your lie, he did amazing.

"Only ok ." Saeyoung pouted and sighed plopping onto the couch to lay down,"Fine, you win." Saeyoung laughed.

Lamps around the room lit up Saeyoungs face, but the windows only revealed a black night sky.

"Well we didn't set up the bedroom yet." You sighed rubbing your eyes noticing how tired you were getting, "Maybe we should do that now."

You went to walk away but Saeyoung grabbed your hand and tugged you lightly. You lost your balance from the sudden action and fell on top of him.

"S-sorry." You said flustered going lift yourself off of him.

Saeyoungs arms wrapped around your back pulling you onto his chest again, "stay" you heard him whisper. His breath skimmed across some bare skin on your neck. His chest rose and fell at a slow and calming pace, "Can we just sleep here tonight?" Saeyoung mumbled barely awake kissing your forehead.

"Mhm." You responded. You were to tired to care where you slept at this point, and you didn't mind sleeping like this. Mainly because Saeyoung comforted you. His arms softly supported you, and his heartbeat was like a lullaby rocking you off to sleep. Before you knew it your eyelids grew heavy and you drifted off into a deep slumber with your husband right by your side.

"Goodnight Darling." Saeyoung sighed as he too fell asleep.

(Ok so you and Saeyoung are already married, and you moved into a house that you two had built on a plot, which looks kind of like this.)
