THE ONE THING ADELE HATES WAS SLEEPING IN THE DARK, and even more when there was a thunderstorm outside. Ever since she was a kid she would always sleep beside her mother, and she would pull her close and whisper sweet comforting words into her ear and tell her that everything will be okay. She thought about calling her, but then, it's late and she knew how tired she was after working.
It's gonna be okay, Addie. Close your eyes and it will go away.
Marie, Adele's mother, always told her that and it brought a sense of comfort in her, but this time she couldn't shake the feeling away. Mark knew it and he asked her if she wanted her to stay with her, but she refused. She immediately regretted her decision when she heard another thunder.
She was sleeping in her shared room with Jinyoung. He's been working so hard these past few weeks and all she wanted was for him to rest. With a tired sigh, she pulled her duvet to the side and took her teddy bear, and quietly walked to Mark and Jackson's room.
Everyone seemed to be asleep since it was quiet, maybe too much for her. Usually, Yugyeom and Bambam would play Overwatch all night, and Jaebeom would often be in his studio writing songs.
Adele opened the door slowly, trying not to make a sound. She was facing their door, debating on what she should do. Jackson was more of a heavy sleeper, so she didn't need to worry about him.
"Mark?" she whispered, walking towards his bed. He stirred in his sleep and slowly opened his eyes. He slightly smiled, opening his arms, letting her lay down next to him. Without hesitation, she put her head on his chest and he held her tight.
"I'm sorry, I woke you up, I can't sleep," Adele mumbled while playing at the ends of his shirt. He chuckled, he was more than happy that she came to him for comfort. It showed him that she could trust him.
"Don't worry about it," he replied with a chuckle as he pulled her closer to his chest. She looked up and saw that he was looking intently at her. Her cheeks reddened and she was glad that the room was dark or else he would see her red as a tomato.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Adele asked confused, staring into his eyes. In one swift movement, he put his hand on her neck.
"I'm gazing," he answered, caressing her cheek. Adele smiled, suddenly avoiding eye contact while ignoring the butterflies in her stomach.
"It's creepy."
"It's romantic." Serena looked up, only to be met with his lips placed on hers. When he pulled away her cheeks were tinted pink. She giggled, "Did you just quote Stelena?" She cheekily asked him, brushing a few hair strands away from his face.
"And what about it?"
"I liked it," She said before letting her head rest into his neck, her eyes dropping and finally finding some sleep.
