Dreamlike. //Joji x Reader Imagines//

Deprived.

Y/N's POV

12:32am

Joji's been working for the whole day in his studio, and honestly, I'm not even exaggerating. It's been like this for too long now and I'm starting to get worried about him. I go downstairs and make my way over to his studio. I gently push the door open and peer inside to see Joji fast asleep, head down on the table. I smile a little before walking up to him and gently nudging his shoulder.

"Baby..." I say softly. "Come and sleep with me upstairs."

He wakes up more abruptly than I expected. "No...No. I need to finish this, I'm almost done."

I chuckle a little. "Don't be silly. You've been working all day. You need to go and sle-"

"Y/N. I said I'm almost done. I'm busy right now and I haven't got time to be taking a nap." He cuts me off.

"Are you serious?" I stand there in disbelief.

Why is he being like this? I did nothing for him to act this way.

Joji sighs, rubbing his temples. "Y/N, I just need to be alone right now that all. I'm really not trying to argue. Just do me a favor by leaving me here to do what I need to do."

"Is that not what I've been doing for all these days? I don't even speak to you that much anymore and we live in the same goddamn house. You know, I really hate seeing you here all the time-"

"Y/N!" Joji spits.

"No! Joji, I hate seeing you here all the time because you're never getting enough sleep. You're constantly draining yourself without even knowing it. What you're doing is great and I'm so proud of you, but you just need to take a fucking break sometimes! I don't wanna act like a mom but seriously...I care about you. And you're just being selfish."

Joji doesn't say anything for a while. I sigh and just leave the room feeling upset, lonely and frustrated because he isn't listening to me. I head upstairs and into our room, slamming the door. Diving into the bed, I hide under the sheets while sobbing uncontrollably.

I feel like a fucking idiot. Why am I crying over him? It's his decision to be like this. Sometimes I question why I'm even still with him. It's like we're strangers.

Joji's POV

12:57am

I sigh, closing my laptop and sitting for a while. I reflect on the argument, and the words that came out of her just ended up making me feel like a dick. God, how could I be so blind? I know that she's hurt, and I shouldn't have poured my anger onto her. I don't even remember the last time we've slept together.

I get up and exit the studio, closing the door. I go upstairs and slowly enter the bedroom where I find her asleep. Wow...she's such an angel.

I stealthily try to shift myself next to her so she wouldn't wake up. I pull the sheets over me and gently pull her close so that her head is buried into my chest. I feel her arms travel down to my waist and they stay there. I bask in her warm embrace as I kiss her cheek.

I miss this...I miss her.

Closing my eyes, it doesn't take me long to drift into peaceful, much needed rest.
