Mystic Messenger: Last night with you (ZenXMc fanfiction)

Chapter 20: unspoken

The clock reads 1:30 am and not a single soul in sight.

Typical.

What did he expect? He was a bachelor with no one to care for him.

He lies awake in his bed daydreaming about how things were when he was yours and you were his.

What was it like to be by your side?

Did he take care of you when you were sick? Did you take care of him when he was sick? The last thought made him chuckled a bit, he never got sick. Injured but never sick.

His head started hurting again, a clear sign that the beers he drank are taking its toll. He closes his eyes once more hoping to relieve the pain his feeling.

It was quiet.

The sound of the door swinging open opened his eyes.

"Hey" You greeted followed by a question he was too fascinated to listen too. The beer really is taking control of his imagination taking over, now he sees you in his room.

"Zen?" you called out once more, sitting on his bedside. His eyes locked into the imaginary figure that is in front of him.

Pathetic, isn't? A grown man with a wild imagination. God. Just how low can he get?

You raise an eyebrow at Zen who has been staring at you and not saying anything. You place your right-hand reaches on his forehead to see if he has a fever but his reaction was something you never expected.

His eyes grew as if he was just realizing something, his cheeks turned bright red.

"You're really here?" He stuttered to say.

You nod at his weird question. "Are you okay Zen"
You asked one more time.

"I never thought you'd stay... why?" You weren't his imagination. You stayed behind. It was past 1 in the morning and you were still awake. Why? Why, after all the things he did to you? Why were you still by his side when you said you wanted to leave?

A whirlwind of emotion was more than enough to occupy's the actor's mind. He didn't even realize the tears running down his face until your hands move to remove it.

He has been lonely for so long, no one to take care of him if he gets sick. Maybe that's the reason why his body became so strong because it needed to be.

"Zen? Is something hurting?" You asked confused on why he was crying but he didn't answer. He continues to stare at you, eyes filled with guilt and regret. "I think should call Jumin so we can bring you to the hospital.."

You stand up to retrieve your phone from the living room but was stopped by a hand firmly grabbing yours.

"Zen?.."

"Don't leave me..." he begged. "Please"

You couldn't understand Zen's outburst but you followed his wish. You sat back by his side quietly contemplating while he tries to compose his self.

It was quiet.

A little too quiet.

"Are you hungry? I cooked some food earlier but you were fast asleep" he nods in response. His eyes shine at your question, he was happy that you broke the awkward silence.

You helped him up and into the kitchen, made him sit as you reheat the food and watched as he finishes the dish you made.

"This is amazing" he complimented for like the 100th time. He wasn't used to having someone be at his side let alone cook for him.

But you did.

Zen sat on the couch as you wash the dishes. You have a clear view of him as he tries to calm down.

He's been through a lot. He needed all the break he can get.

But you needed one too. Too occupied and too tired, you didn't realize that a plate was hanging dangerously from the counter top.

The noise of it breaking cause Zen to spring from his seat and back in the kitchen to check on you. He saw you on your knees trying to pick up the glass with your bare hands.

"Sara stop!" But you didn't yield. Far too tired, you just want to get the job done.

"I said stop!" He grabs your hand. Your eyes were droopy as you look at Zen. He realizes that it was past 1 in the morning and it was natural that you were exhausted.

The young actor drags you out of the kitchen and into the living room couch. You wanted to protest about leaving the job undone but you couldn't.

"Wait here" he commanded before going back into the kitchen to finish cleaning up.

When he returned you were already asleep on the sofa.

He carried you to his bedroom. Like you were still his bride.

Gently, he lets you down.

"Babe" you mutter half asleep. He can only hope and assumed that it was him you were referring to.

"Yes?" He leans in to hear you clearly.

And before flopping back to sleep you lean in as well to catch his lips.

"Good night"
