i was doing my term papers when i noticed hoseok was still sitting on my bed.
"you're still awake?" i asked him.

"yes. i'm waiting for you to finish so we can sleep together." i felt my heart thump wildly inside my chest as his words.

"you can sleep first. i have to finish my term papers. i won't be done 'til 2:30." i said as i continued typing on my laptop.

"i'll wait for you."

why do you have to say such nice things to me?

"because i'm your guardian angel." hoseok answered from behind me. i flustered at his answers.

i finally finished writing my term papers at half past 3 am. i turned off the lights and climbed to bed. hoseok and i lay down.
i couldn't sleep immediately. my mind was running wild with terrifying thoughts.

term papers, examinations, being alone, being needed only when it benefits them, being a burden, not having enough money, professors, subjects i'm not good at that i could fail, maybe just ending it all-

at that exact moment, hoseok wrapped his arms around my waist to my stomach again. his wings enveloped my body in a warm embrace.
at that moment, i felt so warm.
i wanted to cry at hoseok's kind gesture.

no one has ever done that before except him.
"hoseok?"

hoseok hummed.
"do you believe that 3 am is the devil's hour?"

hoseok didn't answer and just wrapped his arms on me a little more tighter.
