Namjoon had managed to reach a hoodie that was laid on the edge of his bed and slipped it onto Jeongguk's tiny frame. Jeongguk's hands were not even visible, hidden by the sweater's thick, soft material.Laying down beside each other with Jeongguk's face buried in the junction between Namjoon's shoulder and neck, there was no sound except the quiet puffs of air leaving both their lips.
They both laid there for about an hour, both not saying anything. No words needed to be said.
Jeongguk's eyes felt heavy from his cry session, but he did not want to fall asleep. He was afraid to.
Namjoon felt the slow brushing of Jeongguk's eyelashes against his sun-kissed skin every time he blinked.
"You can sleep if you want. I'll wake you when it's time for lunch" Namjoon's voice was low and smooth. He was worried for him. Jeongguk just shook his head, pressing himself a little closer to Namjoon's muscular frame.
"Don' wanna. M' scared of sleeping." He mumbled, continuing to lethargically blink.
Frowning at his reply, Namjoon ran his hand gently down Jeongguk's arm.
"You don't have to be afraid, angel. I'm here to protect you, remember?" Jeongguk slowly nodded.
"B-but the monsters w-will get me if I sleep. C-cause they know I-I can't see them when I'm asleep." Namjoon's frown deepened, carefully wrapping an arm around his waist and holding him even closer.
"What monsters, angel?" Jeongguk shook his head, fist clenching where it was laid on Namjoon's chest.
"T-they hurt me." Namjoon's heart tightened in his chest. He felt awful. He couldn't even begin to comprehend the hurt Jeongguk has probably experienced.
"Awe, Gguk" There were pillows stacked and positioned behind Namjoon's back. He carefully sat up to slightly recline against the pillows and headboard with Jeongguk in his hold. Jeongguk laid on top of him, chest to chest, with his head against Namjoon's broad shoulder. Namjoon wrapped both his arms to gently lay across Jeongguk's lower back while the other curled up slightly and rested his palms against Namjoon's muscular chest.
"I won't let the monsters hurt you anymore. I promise you Gguk" Namjoon rested his cheek against Jeongguk's crown of black hair. His hair smelt sweet; a mix of strawberries and peaches.
"You've done so well angel. So strong. Such a brave prince" Jeongguk could feel his cheeks grow warm. He slowly and gently slid one of his hands up to rest on Namjoon's unoccupied shoulder.
"Really?" Jeongguk whispered into the quiet air; air that was now soothing and relaxing, no longer causing him distress.
"Mhm. Ggukie is the bravest prince ever"
The prettiest too.
Not being able to control himself, Jeongguk's lips pulled up into the smallest of smiles. Namjoon unfortunately didn't catch this rare moment.
Jeongguk's lips soon stretched into an adorable yawn, feeling his eyes start to droop.
"Sleep Gguk. I'll be here when you wake up, okay?" Jeongguk nodded and yawned again, moving a hand to scratch at his nose.
"Promise?" Namjoon grinned at Jeongguk's adorableness. Pressing the lightest of kisses on Jeongguk's pillow of soft hair, he nodded.
"Promise."
