She laughed as again JK was rummaging for snacks before the car even pulled away.
He ate his way through the rest of his supply, sharing with her as they recapped the night.
As the car finally broke free from traffic, he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close. She curled up in the seat next to him and laid her head on his chest, one hand pressed against his heart.
Soon she felt herself drifting in the twilight before sleep. His deep and steady breathing told her he had completely relaxed as well. The remainder of the ride to her apartment was spent wrapped in each other’s arms, peacefully content.
The ride gave Lyra time to think. She did not want him to walk her to her door and go home. But the specter of her secrets would not let her relax.
Wrestling with her thoughts, she finally decided she should tell him. She should tell him everything.
The last few miles she held him tighter, fear stealing in that once her knew her she would never have the chance to touch him again.
As they arrived in her neighborhood, Lyra raised up and realized he had drifted to sleep. He looked so perfect there, the streetlights flashing on his face as they passed.
She gently shook him and called his name. His eyes slowly opened and he raised his head, looking around, blinking in confusion.
Oh my… she thought. He absolutely stole another piece of her heart as he looked around, adorable as he tried to remember where he was.
Then his eyes fell on her. They cleared bit by bit as a slow smile spread across his face. Recognition, need, happiness, acceptance, were all emotions she swore she saw flicker there as his eyes began to focus.
“There you are,” he whispered, his voice thick from sleep and something else she could not name.
Just then her resolve waivered. She wanted him. If just for this moment, she wanted happiness.
Jungkook had been concentrating on calming his breathing as Lyra laid her head, then her hand on his chest. She fit against him so perfectly, her feet curled in the seat, her body snug against him, stealing his body heat.
He smiled as a random thought struck him. She would be a cover thief!
He closed his eyes at that, trying to keep from imagining her rolling away from him in the night dragging the covers with her, forcing him to follow in her wake to find warmth again.
But that was exactly what he was thinking as he drifted, lost in his thoughts and the comfort her nearness brought him.
He came awake slowly, not even aware of how he could have drifted off. In his mind he was in a huge bed with Lyra, fighting over the covers, the morning sun illuminating her as she laughed at him.
He stumbled awake, confused why it was dark. Then he saw her and remembered…..the Gala.
They must be close to her apartment. He did not want her to go, he did not want the evening to be over.
She watched him as he became fully alert, watched him go from adorable boy to a man full grown in seconds as his eyes found hers and then dropped to her lips.
“Please….” He said, his dark voice causing her shivers of a different kind, “may I come up for a while?”
She nodded, silently agreeing, as the car pulled to a stop.
The driver opened the door and JK spoke to him in a low voice before helping Lyra out of the car.
Then, arm in arm they walked to her apartment.
