kihyun woke up the next morning hearing clattering sounds coming from the dining area. as he turned around, he saw changkyun doing the dishes. he wore a big grey hoodie and a pair of black sweatpants. his hair was messy and still a bit wet, so the older assumed ha took a shower earlier. kihyun smiled watching him but after he noticed that changkyun looked even a bit worse than the night before, his smile faded again. he turned around once again, to look for his phone to see what time it was. he found it plugged in to the charger even though he doesn't remember doing that before he fell asleep the night before. after a few seconds of thinking, he came to realize that changkyun must've plugged it in later on and he smiled at that. he didn't know why exactly, but he thought that such small acts of kindness were so appreciable. however, when he then finally looked at the time, he saw that it was 11:38 am and not long after that, the younger noticed that he had woken up as well.
"oh, hyung! good morning. did you sleep well?" changkyun said with a cute smile on his lips. kihyun looked back at him but instead of responding tight away, he realized something. because actually, he was supposed to sleep in his own room and with that, he also realized that he had left hyungwon alone. although it might seem unnecessary, assuming the taller was still sleeping peacefully in this very moment and probably didn't even notice yet that he was gone, he felt a bit bad for not even leaving a note. for now though, he decided to not worry about that too much because what mattered the most at this time was that changkyun got better and looking at him, that didn't seem to be the case.
"morning kyun, i did. yes." kihyun chuckled and changkyun joined him, smiling even brighter. after that, kihyun got up and walked towards the bathroom to wash his face. when he finished freshening up, he headed back to the dining area to see what changkyun was doing by now. passing it, he noticed that the sofa in the room looked quite messy. almost as if there has been sleeping someone, and that was when he real something else.
"hey changkyun..?"
"yeah?" the younger called out, looking at him a bit confused about the sudden tone of his voice.
"did you- did you sleep on the sofa?"
"yes i did hyung."
"but why? you could've slept next to me. i mean- there is enough space." kihyun was concerned about the fact that the younger slept on the couch and not in the bed. it was his fault in the end, considering he fell asleep there.
"i was scared that you'd get sick, hyung. you can't get infected. that's too risky." changkyun appeared to be way too careful about this and kihyun didn't like that.
"oh, kyunnie.. no. i told you that it wouldn't happen. you can't be sleeping on the sofa when you're already sick. you need good rest, especially now and i highly doubt that you slept well on- that?"
"no, i didn't." changkyun pouted and kihyun couldn't help but chuckle softly at that.
"aw, baby. i'm sorry. i actually didn't plan to fall asleep here. you didn't have to do that? you could've just pushed me off the bed or something, you know? i would've slept here. or the floor. i even would've gone to my room, if you wanted me to." kihyun explained and changkyun just giggled.
"what?" kihyun began, smiling.
"nothing, just, you would've stayed with me, even if i pushed you out of the bed? that's so cute, ki. thanks." changkyun just kept smiling at him. "but now, come here. i made hot chocolate for us. you like the one i make, right?"
"oh, really? i love yours! thanks, kyunnie!" kihyun jumped in joy and approached the maknae, who was just laughing at his hyungs actions. they kept on talking, drinking the hot chocolate and enjoying each other's company until they were interrupted by knocking at the door and a voice behind it.
"changkyun? hey, it's shownu-hyung. can i come in?"
