As they walked to Yuta's apartment he became more nervous. He knew this was what he wanted and for some reason he trusted Jaehyun, so he didn't know why he was this anxious. It's because you like him. He stopped walking and looked around. Normally he talked to himself, internally, a lot. It was a normal thing, but this was like someone else talking to him. 

What the fuck? This was all Yuta needed. Someone else in his head. Having himself, Jaehyun and even Ten were bad enough. He shook his head and kept walking. He didn't want Jaehyun to catch on that anything had happened. 

They didn't talk on the way but it wasn't too uncomfortable of a silence. It felt more like if old friends had talked about everything but still wanted to be around each other.

When they reached Yuta's apartment, he went into the kitchen and started looking for something to eat. "If you want to just, make yourself comfortable I'll get us something to eat." Jaehyun leaned against the wall a few feet away from, "Let me know if you need my help."

Yuta nodded and kept at it. He didn't have much because he knew the nightmares would keep him up and possibly make him sick. Luckily he had some stuff for sandwiches, he just hoped that was okay with Jaehyun. 

He turned around and laid the plates on the table. "I hope sandwiches are okay. It's all I have right now." He was a little embarrassed. 

Jaehyun sat down and took a bite, "It's fine Yuta. Don't worry." He smiled not wanting Yuta to dwell on it. "I'm not a picky eater. As long as it's edible I'm good."

Yuta laughed, "sounds like me most of the time. I don't keep...normal food much because of the nightmares. They mess with my eating."

"I understand. I hope I can help change all this for you. For the better." He really did hope he would be able to help Yuta and make his life more enjoyable. 

"Thank you Jaehyun. So, after we're done would you like to watch Netflix or something?"

"Sueuwa" Jaehyun laughed and swallowed, "Sure. Sorry I should have swallowed first."

After they got done eating and cleaned up they moved to the couch. Jaehyun about died when Yuta said his favorite show on Netflix was supernatural and that was what they were going to be watching.  

"You're kidding me. Your favorite show is about demons, vampires, and you were doubting me?" He laughed in disbelief. 

"Hey, this was just a tv show to me before you came along. I'm gonna be seeing it in a whole new light now, thank you very much."

They watched a few episodes but Yuta was getting tired. He wasn't sure what to do about the sleeping arrangements, but thankfully Jaehyun beat him to it. "I'll sleep on the couch if you can just give me some clothes and a blanket and pillow. If you need me you can come get me. How about that?"

"Okay, thanks." He went into his room and got some sweats that were a little too long and a T-shirt. He grabbed one of the few pillows off his bed and a comfy blanket and went back into the living room. 

"I think these should fit. The sweats are a bit long on me so they'll probably be perfect for you. If you need anything just knock." He turned around and headed back in his room before Jaehyun could even respond. He was so nervous and worried. 

Jaehyun went to the bathroom, changed, and then made himself comfortable on the couch. It didn't take him long to fall asleep. 

Yuta on the hand couldn't do anything to fall asleep. He tried for what seemed like hours. When he looked at his phone for what seemed like the hundredth time he sighed and got up. 

He walked into the living room quietly not wanting to disturb Jaehyun. Luck was on his side because he didn't seem to have woken him up. 

Jaehyun was laying on his side back to the couch, so Yuta pulled the blanket back and laid next to him. He froze when Jaehyun pulled him into his chest, arms wrapping around his waist and his hair tickling his nose. He stayed still for a minute until he was sure Jaehyun hasn't woken up and the. put his arms around his waist and buried his face in his neck. 

Jaehyun squeezed him a little tighter and let out a quiet laugh which scared Yuta. He tried to pull away but Jaehyun wouldn't let go. "It's okay. I'm glad you came." He looked down at Yuta and pushed the hair out of his eyes. "Please stay." 

Yuta knew he was blushing like crazy but he didn't care. He was too captivated by Jaehyun's eyes. They were black. "Why are your eyes black?" He didn't kind. He thought they looked good, thought Jaehyun looked good with them. 

"Oh, I'm sorry. When I'm tired or sleepy it's harder for me to keep them brown. I honestly just don't try."

"It's okay, I like them. I was just curious." He smiled at Jaehyun. He didn't want him being uncomfortable around him. "You could keep them black when you're around me if you want. I won't mind."

Jaehyun couldn't believe it. Yuta was blowing his mind. He pulled him back into a tight hug, "Thank you Yuta. You never cease to amaze me."
