Taeil

doyoung called it a night after our crying fit. he led me to an extra room he had and told me where everything was and to make myself at home. it was too big of a room just for one person. it made me feel small and weak but i didn't tell him that. i just nodded and smiled at him.

and now here i am, looking at myself in the bathroom mirror. man, i really do look like shit. my eyes were red and one of them was bruised from earlier. there were some cuts on my cheeks and some of them had dried blood on them. gross. i let the water run a little to get the water to a nice temperature and then started to wash my face. it stung but i didn't want it to get infected so i continued. I got curious so i lifted up my shirt to see if my chest area was as beat up as my face. lets just say that my parents went for the the chest area more often than my face.

i put my shirt down and sighed, this was going to be a long night. i changed into the clothes that doyoung gave me, which consisted of basketball shorts and a hoodie, and headed to the bed. i laid down and tried to get comfortable. the sweater was really soft and big but it was going to make me overheat sooner or later. without a second thought i sat up and slipped the sweater off and placed it at the edge of the bed. i laid back down and brought the covers up to my chin and soon i was fast asleep.

Doyoung

morning came too quick. the sun was just rising and i was already brushing my teeth to get ready for the day. it usually takes me 30 minutes to get ready for work and about another 30 to prepare and eat breakfast. today, however, was different. I got ready and made breakfast twice as fast to talk to a certain somebody.

i finished pouring some orange juice into glasses and then ran to the room taeil was staying at. without thinking, i barged into the room without knocking. oh what a big mistake. he was laying on his stomach on the bed and the covers were just covering his bottom half. he started to move and my eyes widened. i walked out and closed the door quickly behind me. i put my hands to my heart, quick. i put my hands to my face, hot. i didn't see much but i saw enough to know that he works out a bit. i also saw red marks on his back, which concerned me. i'll ask him about that later, but right now i got to wake him up properly.

i knocked once. "taeil, do you mind if i come in?" i put my ear to the door to hear if he made any sort of movement. it was silent for a second and then i heard the creaks of the bed. i heard some fumbling and mumbling and then the door swung open. "doyoung. hi good morning. and sure come in." his hair was standing up in different directions and he actually had the sweater i gave him last night on this time. he moved out of the doorway and flopped back on the bed. i followed him and sat on the corner of the bed. i fiddled with my fingers still affected by what i previously saw. i looked over at him and he had his eyes closed and his arms were stretched above his head which made the sweater rise a little bit. i looked at his exposed skin and gulped. i quickly looked away and shook my head. all nice thoughts no weird ones around here, nope not at all.

"so doyoung, what brings you here this early in the morning? you do know it's only 6 right?" i lifted my head and looked at my wrist watch. damn i got ready too quickly. "well i had to get ready for work and i also prepared breakfast. on that note, i made breakfast, do you want? i could leave it in the microwave you eat it whenever you want." i looked in his direction and he was already looking at me. he tilted his head and rose one of his eyebrows. "y-you are letting me stay?" his eyes were getting watery and I didn't want him crying again so i grabbed both of his hands. "taeil, of course i'm letting you stay. stay as long as you need, please. you are no bother."

he sniffled a little and tackled me into a hug. i squeaked and fell back on the bed with him on top of me. his head was buried into my neck whispering small thank you's, which tickled and sent shivers down my spine. i wrapped my arms around his waist and smiled.

i could get used to this.
