The black jeep drove onto the huge driveway, a terrain that started to become familiar with the boy seated in the passenger seat. It was like coming home to Jeonghan, having Seungcheol next to him who brought him to a safe place. His hand didn't went nowhere else but his upper leg for the entirety of the ride, and Jeonghan would lie if he said he didn't like it. Because he felt a little disappointed once the car was parked and the engine stopped making noises, forcing Seungcheol to remove his hand.
He didn't even notice it when Seungcheol already stood outside of the car, ticking the keys against Jeonghan's window from the other side. It scared Jeonghan out of his slumber, putting the blame on the fact that it was already pretty late and he was getting tired.
Jeonghan got up from his seat and stepped out of the car, Seungcheol clicking the button on his keys that automatically locked the black vehicle before they walked up the porch and entered the house.
Most of the lights were turned off inside, so after they both took off their shoes Jeonghan held on to Seungcheol's upper arm, letting the elder lead them both to his room. "You're cute." Seungcheol whispered.
"Shut up and just walk us to your room." Jeonghan whisper hissed back.
"Why are we even whispering?"
"I don't know? Because it's dark?"
"The maids won't even hear us if we yelled, they sleep two floors up."
And even though Seungcheol made a point, they kept whispering. Blaming it on an automatic gesture because of the darkness.
Once they were one floor up, proceeding their discussion in nothing more than soft whispers, Seungcheol opened the door to his room and let Jeonghan in as first. Once they were both inside he closed the door behind them and turned on a light, allowing them to see the room all clear again.
"I'm so tired." Jeonghan was the first one to speak out loud again and dropped his body on the double bed, staring up at the ceiling.
"Lucky for you, we're already wearing pajamas!" Seungcheol exclaimed, what made Jeonghan realize he totally forgot about the ridiculous pajamas they wore for the whole evening.
"And you're convinced that these are comfortable to sleep in?" Jeonghan asked unbelieving.
"Remember the conversation we had earlier today? I sleep shirtless, sleeping in only a pair of trousers can even be comfortable when they're slightly smaller. And besides, these are only a little too short, they're wide enough to sleep in."
Jeonghan gulped and felt heat rising to his cheeks. He remained silent for a brief second and thought back about the conversation they indeed had earlier that day. Back then he only thought about the comfort and warmth sleeping against Seungcheol's bare chest would give him.
But right now, he got a bit nervous about how he would react on it himself the moment Seungcheol would unbutton his pajama tops and join him in bed..
"Like I said before, if you're uncomfortable with it I can also leave them on. I really don't mind Hannie." Jeonghan felt the bed beside him sinking in a little bit and looked up to see Seungcheol had sat down beside him. He must've seen the thoughtful expression on his face..
But Jeonghan sat up too and shook his head. "Just take it off, I really don't mind."
"Are you sure?"
Jeonghan nodded. "I don't want you to sleep uncomfortable because of me."
"But I don't want you to feel uncomfortable either."
Jeonghan sighed and playfully hit Seungcheol against his shoulder. "If you don't take it off now yourself I'm doing it!" Seungcheol grinned and quickly pecked Jeonghan's cheek before standing up and walking to his immense huge closet, turning his back to Jeonghan who shamelessly kept staring at him while the blouse he was wearing became looser and looser around his back, assuming he was unbuttoning it at the front.
He pushed himself back on the bed, rolling underneath the blankets and laying with his head against the headboard, his gaze never leaving the sight in front of him. Until the blouse fell loosely off Seungcheol's shoulders, allowing Jeonghan to see the beautifully formed muscles on his back. His heart clenched in his chest upon the view and he tried his hardest to not blush more furiously than he already was.
Seungcheol took it off and lay it in one of the many drawers, closing the door of his closet afterwards and turning around, giving Jeonghan an even better view of him. His lightly toned chest showed off a gorgeous pair of abs, making Jeonghan nearly drool at the sight. He hated himself for staring so obviously, but how couldn't he when a whole ass meal like Choi Seungcheol stood right in front of him?
Seungcheol, seeing Jeonghan looking at him like that, just grinned and walked to the light switch. Once he turned it off the room was only lit in the poor lighting of the moon, making a stroke of light fall on the floor through one of the big windows.
"You're staring."
"Oh shut up!"
"I didn't say I mind it."
Seungcheol got in on the other side of the bed and lay down, pulling the blanket up till just under his broad shoulders. He left his left arm over the blanket and his right arm under his head, with his elbow poking out in Jeonghan's direction.
For briefly a few seconds they just stared at each other, examining their facial features in the poor lighting of the room. Jeonghan lifted one of his hands, resting it on Seungcheol's arm that lay on top of the blanket. With his index finger he slid over the curves of his well formed muscles, going all the way up to his shoulder and back down to his hand, exploring Seungcheol in his own way.
"I feel happy, Cheol."
It was the first time he said that in a month. And for the first time he meant it.
"I feel happy too Hannie."
Seungcheol moved forward and gently pressed a small kiss on Jeonghan's forehead before they cuddled up, tangling their legs together and Jeonghan's head resting on Seungcheol's bare chest. His assumption of that afternoon was right, being in Seungcheol's arms whilst he was shirtless was more comfortable and warm than he expected.
"I wish we could stay like this forever.." Jeonghan whispered.
"Then why don't we just do that?"
Jeonghan looked up and gave Seungcheol a confused glance. "We can't stay in bed forever, dummy."
"No no, I mean sleeping like this. Why don't we fall asleep like this forever."
"Is that a pinky promise?" Seungcheol giggled softly when he saw Jeonghan was taking over his little habits.
"That's a pinky promise."
And with that the two interlaced their pinkies, promising each other their forever.
