I'm Not Your Pet

Chapter Six

Chanyeol couldn't sleep.

He stared up at the ceiling, his hands on his stomach while lying on his back. He sighed deep and tried to close his eyes once more.

The room was dark. Only the light from his alarm clock was to be seen. Chanyeol was the kind of person that needed the room to be completely dark, before he could fall asleep. It also had to be a little cold. He couldn't stand the heat.

Heat.

His cheeks burned up and he rolled embarrassed around in his bed.

"Oh my god Chanyeol." He whined into the quiet room.

His hands were covering his warm face.

Baekhyun was taking over his mind. Maybe he was about to go crazy?

He groaned and rolled back on his back. The small cat hybrid's smile earlier today had stunned him. Nearly blinded him. How could someone look so adorable?

Suddenly a small light beam hit his face. The door had opened.

"Chanyeol?"

"Yes?" he piped out.

Chanyeol sat up in his bed as quickly as he could, suddenly feeling all nervous.
He cleared his throat, as If he was going to say something more, but he didn't. The room was filled with an awkward atmosphere.

The cat hybrid didn't say anything and closed the door behind him, leaving them in complete darkness.

"I couldn't sleep."

"Oh."

Chanyeol didn't know what to say. What did people say in situations like these?

Baekhyun looked at the confused man, biting his lower lip. His ears hung low and he played with his soft tail in his hands.
The golden eyes stared at him. Chanyeol tried to calm his nerves and patted the other side of his big bed.

"Do you want to sleep here?"

Baekhyun froze. He wasn't stupid. He had after all read Twilight. He knew what humans did in bed, naughty things. Well, he didn't exactly know how all that... mating went, but he knew about kissing.

Chanyeol was half expecting the little cat hybrid to run screaming out of his room when he didn't get any response.

To his surprise, he didn't. Baekhyun jumped into the bed and buried himself under the covers. Very familiar with how soft the bed was. He did after all spend a lot of time here, even though Chanyeol didn't know.

Chanyeol was caught off guard, and his weak chuckle filled the silent room. Only the top of his head and the black tail were visible, his whole body hidden.

"Okay."

Baekhyun hummed in reply.

Finally.

He took a deep breath, letting the sweet smell fill his nose. He stretched out his arms, laying like a starfish in the suddenly more narrower bed. Chanyeol gulped and tried to move away, but quickly found out that there was no more room on his side.

"B-baek-" he tried.

"I love this bed." Was the murmur he got back. He looked over at the cat hybrid.
