flowers [kim doyoung]

twenty- two

everglow's sihyeon as keiko, imagine her having short hair :)

"wait, you're scared? what happened to my bravest girl alive?" doyoung makes way for keiko to enter his house, dragging her pillow too. how does this girl gets scared? she's a zoologists for gods sake. handling lions wasn't a problem for her even though she knew that thing could eat her alive.

her face was flushed, it's like embarrassment wasn't supposed to be clinging with her. "i really can't stand it and it's scaring me.."

both of them were moving towards doyoung's bedroom, walking slowly as they both talk side by side. doyoung's heart can't stop beating rapidly, emitting a pink hue from the bouquet of flowers that is sticking out from his heart.

"what's it?" the latter asks, bothered by the fact that his best friend turned into a scaredy cat.

"a dream. gosh , it's worst than my nightmares"

doyoung tried to suppress his anxiety. she was getting dreams. what if she get dreams like him?

what if zaya is trying to disturb her as well? he needs to get to the bottom of this.

fuck it then, zaya's in my body but she can't read any of my thoughts! i'm at an advantage.

doyoung kept his composure but he still bites his lips. "maybe, you could tell it to me? better than keeping it to yourself?" he asks.

keiko was sitting on doyoung's bed, facing him as well as they both hugged their pillows. doyoung was getting sleepy but he's still resisting it.

"i would tell you if you promise to do one thing" doyoung cocked his eyebrows when keiko said that. he wondered what does he need to do for her to tell the dream to him?

"after i tell you the dream, i want you to accompany me to sleep" she added.

doyoung had his eyes expanded. he didn't expect this from the girl that he loved. sure good old thoughts.

but to remind him, she's his crush!
for the sake of the reason why she came in the first place, doyoung needed to agree. he needs to know what her dreams are. maybe, he could solve everything.

"alright then.." he sighed.

"but we need pillows between us, alright!" he added as he rambled, making keiko chuckled. his heart begins to bleed but he felt calm at the same time.

"okay, to tell you the dream.. i.. em.. gosh i'm scared to tell you this to be honest. i dreamed that you were dead.. and some woman here.. excused me for killing you but in my previous dreams, she controlled me, like a mannequin. sh-she.. looks old but then she held your hand, it's like she exchange all the beauty, energy, and probably the life that you had" she said in a go, making her looking like a puffer fish.

doyoung was gulping his saliva slowly as it painfully goes down. he was sure she dreamed about these things that related to him.

because keiko killed him in his dreams and in her dream, she killed doyoung. it relates.

"and and, i'm getting to a part here. every time i dreamed about you, i would always shoot you with flower arrows? you also appeared with flowers located in your heart. there would always be flowers, red roses to be exact" she added. doyoung was trying not to scream about everything that he had in mind.

"it's.. weird ey? that's why you're scared right?" doyoung asked, hoping she'll answer it truthfully.

keiko adverted her gaze onto her lap. "yeah.. it's not weird.. i'm just, i don't wanna lose you in terms like that, like the dream. it's— it's just too much"

doyoung yawned. he was tired of this game that zaya was playing on them. he just wanted to sleep and maybe have some quality time with keiko even though he's an awkward one because keiko's his crush. it's a long term crush anyway.

"it's alright keiko. i won't let myself die in a way that you describe anyway. it's 4:30 already. let's sleep" doyoung said, wishing that he didn't have to sleep but he needs it by hook or crook.

yawning as she sprawled her hands onto the bed, "yeah, but one thing..... i'm such an idiot but can.. can i h-hug you as i sleep? or, or, you would hug me? goshhh that sounds so we—" her cheeks burned as she said those.

"i'll hug you to sleep okay? i'll be right by your side for the rest of the night, okay?" doyoung agreed, just to calm her down. she was fidgeting more than usual just now, a habit of hers when she was scared.

keiko nodded and lie on the bed with herself facing doyoung. doyoung slowly snaked his hands around her waist and pulls her closer towards his chest, resting his chin on top of the crown of her head.

keiko snuggled into his chest and doyoung being the big spoon, wrapped his legs around her.

"sleep alright? don't think too much about the dream.. i'm, here.. always" doyoung mumbles as keiko's eyes started to droop.

slowly before she was clouded into darkness, she swore that she felt a pair of lips kissing her forehead.
