"No," I gasped, my voice barely above a whisper as I opened my eyes.
I immediately sat up, sweat pooling around my forehead as the blankets fell off of me.
A small tear escaped and rolled down the hills of my cheeks, creating a small streak.
This...This is reality right?
I brushed my hair back with my hands after a long silence, sighing at my apparent nightmare just now.
It felt so real. Real to the point that the smell of rotten eggs seemed to stay on my senses even now.
I glanced at Jungkook who had his eyes closed with his chest rising up and down.
He was still asleep.
I let out a small breath, slowing my beating heart. Seeing him specifically almost made me flinch because of what I just experienced but seeing someone next to me calmed me down a bit from the shock.
To be honest, the real reason behind me wanting him to stay here was because of this.
Back at home, I slept on floor mattresses with my mom and dad (because of our financial situation) so it provided a kind of sanctuary having them next to me. Our house was small but functional and felt like a cozy place I could call home.
Ever since I came to this school and dormed, I've been getting frequent dreams similar to the one at first. The situation became worse when Namjoonie moved out too.
I really can't blame anyone though. My own mental complex and anxiety is the cause of all these nightmares after all.
Nevertheless, it's nice having another person in proximity to me.
I turned towards my right, blinking at his peaceful expression as he slept.
When was the last time I yelled at someone and felt compelled to say all the things on my mind?
...Somehow, Jungkook drew that out of me.
When Namjoonie was my roommate, it felt like I was walking on eggshells every second. I couldn't even talk right, believing that I said something wrong or weird and agonizing every little detail to the point of cutting any unnecessary communication in fear of that.
