an hour dragged past and soonyoung finally gives in to rest. both jihoon and him are on the same bed, facing each other. to jihoon, it's nothing new anymore. they've been friends for years now that it makes sleeping next to soonyoung become normal, but soonyoung feels the exact opposite. he will never get used to being so close to his friend, listening to the rhythm of their mismatched heartbeats.
"did you lock the door?" the older one whispers
"is this about your dad again?"
soonyoung nods, and jihoon calmly brushes the few strands of hair covering his friend's eyes, "i did. he wouldn't see us, okay, soonyoung? stop worrying and get to sleep."
"how could you tell someone with a homophobic father to stop worrying when he's literally on the same bed with his friend?"
"soonyoung. who knows? he might actually accept you in the end."
"do you really think he would? cause i doubt."
"no matter what happens though, i'll stay with you. now let's sleep!" jihoon cheers.
soonyoung's biggest fear is getting caught by his own father being on the same bed with another boy. sure, they're childhood friends and his father knows jihoon well through the years. but soonyoung can't deny the toxicity and narrow mindedness of his own parent that drives him away from coming out.
☁️☀️☁️
five o'clock. a lonely hour, indeed- soonyoung's mind is clouded with a million thoughts, worries, and maybe a few nostalgic memories as he stares at jihoon's face. mixed feelings driven like fast paced domino sets trailing below restlessness. he tosses and turns around the bed, only to find himself staring at the blank ceiling and seeing it as a lit up night sky.
he sinks slowly into the sheets, takes a glance at jihoon again to be reminded of lovely he looks like. he lets his thumb slide gently across the younger's cheek and resist the ethereal pull to hold him close. soon, the sun will rise, the moon will set. and he will stay by his side until then.
"jihoon," soonyoung whispers, "my last 11:11 wish was to be reminded of how beautiful the universe will always be. and then you suddenly came to see me."
soonyoung wishes he could just tell jihoon about how he truly feels. he wants to pour it all, the raw emotions. he wants to love him at the tenth dimension, where nothing could ever be a hindrance.
i pull gravity
together, when our orbits
remain parallel
it's sad, but it's the truth. soonyoung fell for someone he can never have. like two comets parallel to each other, burning out quick and failing to realize that they were meant to be. all he wants to do is to love the only boy that matters to him, it seems like the universe isn't going to let that happen though. but even so, he is happy that the stars must be smiling down at them, knowing that one of the most beautiful pieces of the universe is still glowing ever so brightly, peacefully sleeping by his side. and soonyoung promises to keep him safe.
