"Just tonight"

---

Jaebum laid his aching back on the soft matress after spending a long time sitting in the office. "Hhh I will definitely have a flat ass sitting hours on that chair"

Staring at the ceiling, he couldn't stop thinking about Jinyoung. It has been three days they didn't talk to each other; he missed his Jinyoungie's soft, soothing voice that could immediately lead him to sleep.They could only send short texts because of Jaebum being busy or because Jinyoung was already asleep waiting for a call from his husband.

Jaebum once got a call from one of his relatives living near there that they offered a help to do the house chores, and he agreed on the term she had, that she would go home after 6 p.m because she also had a child. She was still considered as Jaebum's aunt, from his dad's family. They're not really close but Jaebum knew her.

He agreed because one, Jinyoung was 7 months old pregnant, two, it must have been tiring for Jinyoung to do the chores alone, three, Jinyoung would have a friend to talk to, and four, she lived not far from there, so that if Jinyoung needed something asap, she could call her then she would be there.

He told Jinyoung about this and he said no problem and he was happy that he would have a friend to talk to beside Yugyeom. She would start working there in a week from when the call happened, meaning it would be on Monday; 4 days to go.

Jaebum's eyelids were not yet heavy; still widely opened as he was still staring at the ceiling and thinking about his wife. He truly felt sorry that he had to live far away from him and his baby and for not being able to make a call for three days straight.

The thoughts of his beloved wifey, how much pain he had to bear before he could actually see him, and the silence that filled up the cold room made his eyes slowly becoming heavy like they were pulled by hundreds of tight strings. He tried to put Jinyoung's face in his mind to make it feel like he was there with him, hugging the pillow as if it was him and snuggled to it, trying his best to fall asleep, hoping that he would meet him in his dream and made the dream the best, the most beautiful dream he'd ever had.

Adding to all of the ingredients up there, he whispered, mentioning his wife's name like what he always did before he close his eyes, drifting to sleep like a regular prayer,

"Good night, Jinyoungie"

Jackson laid behind Jinyoung as he wrapped his arm around Jinyoung's body. He got what he wanted; a night cuddle with Jinyoung.

"How can you still smell this good, hm?" Jackson sniffing the vanilla escense on Jinyoung's pajama.

"Jackson.."

"Yes?"

"I was thinking about how Mark would feel if he knows about this?"

"Oh don't worry. I have my own alibi. I told him I had to go to the office to help my friend deals with something and that I would be home in the morning. I am yours tonight. I have it under control"

Even though Jinyoung was trying so hard to not let Jackson came into his heart and mind, he kept on failing as Jackson was constantly giving him the attention he needed from his own husband. The what seemed to be a temporary emptiness in him was like a green light for Jackson to make his move as it was slowly growing to be a feeling of longing for touch and warmth.

No matter how hard it was to maintain his loyalty to Jaebum, he kept on letting Jackson texted him, called him, even visited his house at night. This was the first time he sneaked in like a thief. He did went to the house once, 'visiting' Jaebum and his vinyl collections before he had to leave to Seoul for his job. That's why he knew the house and the exact location of the room he's sleeping in right now.
