i hear the keys jingle at the front door
he's back
i reach for my phone on the nightstand to check the time
04:24
it's really late, i wonder what he was doing out there at this time
i rub my eyes and sit up on the bed
since he's quiet it must mean the other side of him is back
he's probably hungry or thirsty
i grab towards my crutches pulling myself up
pausing for a few moments before making my way towards the main room
since my apartment does happen to be on the smaller side, jaebum's sitting on the table in the kitchen/dining room
the whole area is just open which makes things easier for me in this situation
he hears me coming over and looks up with exhausted eyes
"hey."
i sit down tired from waking up and, my short trip to the table
but i respond with a small wave and smile
"i'm sorry to wake you up i was trying to be quiet."
i shake my head slowly, smiling and placing my hands over his extended ones resting on the table
i want to "talk" to him for a bit but it's not like there's anything to quote on quote talk about at 4 am
i get up slowly again to go get us a drink
"wait where are you going? do you need something?"
i point towards the empty tea pot sitting on the stove
he nods his head and leads me back to the couch to sit while he brews the tea
he comes back a couple of minutes later and by this point i'm not as tired as i was earlier
my eyes are focused on the screen playing the movie
'ponyo on the cliff by the sea'
i smile as she snatches the ham from sosuke's sandwich
but a loud snore starles me
i turn to look at jaebum and cover my smiling, gaping mouth
his mouth is wide open, drool dribbling down his chin as he sleeps peacefully
i reach towards the tissue box sitting on the coffee table
i use one to wipe his mouth, grabbing his chin to shut it softly after
i get up to walk to the closet in the hall to get a blanket
i place the crutches on the floor quietly seating myself a little closer to him, then i drape the blanket over both of us
as the movie plays in the background quietly
i lean my head on his shoulder drifting to sleep
resting in his embrace.
