Because of you

"Hyung. Are we leaving yet?" Bam asked, knocking on my door.

"It's 1pm Bam. I said 7pm" I replied, cracking my eyes open as he poked his head in.

"But... I'm hungry" he frowns, sitting on my bed.

"Have lunch then you idiot" I laugh, shaking my head.

"But wouldn't that be wasting meat space?" Bam hesitates, tilting his head. I laughed, ruffling his head.

"Just eat Bam. I can always bring you again next time. I promise" I snorted. Idiot.

I had booked a restaurant that had decent food but was well known for being very crowded. I was shocked but glad that they even accepted my last minute booking.

I sent another quick text to Jinyoung before rolling out of bed to get ready.

To: My squish, my warmth, my life

I just got up again love
Well rested 💪
Have you gotten to the venue yet?

Yup. We're preparing backstage now.
It starts at 3pm

Oh.

Oh?

I have more than enough time.
I get to stalk you. Heh.

Don't make me smile to myself like a weirdo
They all already think/know I'm dating someone

But... but...
You look good from every angle
You can't help my fanboy heart
You hear it every night after all

Okay. I'm going to stop texting you
I just laughed and got everyone's attention

I love you squish

I love you too darling

I smiled, leaving my room to grab some food. Youngjae was in the kitchen making something when I crept in, I grabbed his shoulders suddenly causing him to scream in shock. He clung to me in shock, his arms tight around my waist.

"What what?" JB asked, dashing into the kitchen.

I laughed, hugging Youngjae while ruffling his head. I turned Youngjae to face JB, back hugging him while I rested my chin on his shoulder.

"Idiot here scared me" he grumbles causing me to give JB a sheepish grin. JB laughs, opening up his arms to reach for Youngjae.

I released him, smiling as I watched them hug each other, JB muttering low under his breath to Youngjae, their gazes soft as they looked at each other.

"Okay. Grabbing food and going" I said, nodding to them before leaving the kitchen. They laughed watching me slip out of the kitchen before going back to their own little bubble. I wonder if that's how Jinyoung and I act... well, the rest of the world does seem to fade away when we're together.

I dressed casually, tugging on a black t shirt and pants, I matched it with my black cap and shrugged Jinyoung's jean jacket on.

I smiled to myself, looking into the mirror. His jacket still smelled like him, it felt like he was hugging me from behind, giving me warmth.

I went out to the living room, to see Bam all ready, his legs bouncing as he stared at the clock.
