Jaebum walked into his bedroom much later in the day, assuming that Jinyoung was still asleep due to his stillness in the bed until he locked eyes with the younger. He greeted Jinyoung with a smile, walking around the bed to climb in it with him.

"Hey baby." Jaebum mumbled, watching Jinyoung flip over to face him.

"Baby... that's the second time you called me that..." Jinyoung noted, his lips curling into a smile while his cheeks flushed pink.

"Do you mind?" Jaebum asked, though Jinyoung's reaction showed that he quite liked it.

Jinyoung shook his head in response just as Jaebum assumed he would. "No... I like it. Just... I didn't know you were a pet name person."

"I'm not really... but you make me wanna call you my baby." Jaebum stated, cringing inside at his own words.

"You sound so cheesy." Jinyoung giggled out.

"Cheesy for you." Jaebum said, tugging Jinyoung closer to him. Jaebum made the move to press their lips together, sighing into the soft warmth that was all Jinyoung.

"Mmm you taste like coffee." Jinyoung mumbled as they slightly pulled away.

Jaebum nodded. "I just drank some."

Jinyoung pursed his lips, making an unsatisfied face at Jaebum. "You should've just stayed here and slept with me. It's healthier than drinking coffee and staying awake after so many hours."

"If I stayed with you, then I would've cuddled you to death. Didn't wanna do that." Jaebum stated, though he actually wouldn't have minded staying and cuddling with Jinyoung all that much.

"I wanna cuddle now." Jinyoung stated, looking at Jaebum expectantly.

Jaebum chuckled, opening his arms for Jinyoung to slot himself in. "C'mere."

Jinyoung snuggled up against Jaebum's chest, nuzzling his face into the expanse of his warm body.

"Jaebum you're so warm." Jinyoung mumbled, smiling against Jaebum's chest.

"You are too." Jaebum replied, relishing in Jinyoung's body heat.

Jinyoung shifted his head around, finding a comfortable place on Jaebum's chest to rest it. "Why is your heart beating so fast?"

"Are you stupid?" Jaebum responded, catching Jinyoung off guard.

"N-No..." Jinyoung stuttered out, confused by the sudden insult.

Jaebum ran his hand through Jinyoung's hair, pressing a kiss to the younger's forehead. "It's because I love you and you're laying on me, duh."

Jinyoung chuckled, his face turning cherry red as he hid it in Jaebum's chest. Jaebum took the liberty to allow his hands to trace Jinyoung's back, his fingers straying over a sliver of exposed skin under Jinyoung's shirt. Jinyoung sucked in a sharp breath, jolting from the sudden touch.

"I'm sorry. Did that hurt?" Jaebum asked, wondering if Jinyoung was still sore from the day before.

Jinyoung shook his head, his fingers gently toying with Jaebum's shirt. "Not really hurt... I'm just sensitive..."

"I'm sorry..." Jaebum mumbled.

"Don't be." Jinyoung replied. He went quiet for a minute or two before sitting up a bit, looking down at Jaebum who stared back at him curiously. "Jaebum... do you wanna touch them?"

"Touch what?" Jaebum asked, his brows furrowing together.

"My scars." Jinyoung replied.

Jaebum was a bit taken aback. He wasn't expecting Jinyoung to ask him such a question, but he realized that this was Jinyoung's way of getting a bit more intimate. He found it cute, though he didn't want to go too far if Jinyoung didn't want him to. "Well... only if you'd let me."
