There you sat in front of your messy excuse of a table as you stare at the large book filled with scribbles. To say that you were confused, was an understatement.
You understood nothing.
Sure, your friends had sent you some answers, but you didn't want to copy off them completely, so you decided to do some by yourself.
Horrible decision, really.
Because the moment you opened your book, you completely blanked out, you remembered nothing from your lecture. You wanted to ask your friends for help by asking them to explain it to you, but at the same time, you didn't want to bother them.
Did they get this by multiplying? No, wait it's addition— hold on...huh?
You sigh, laying your head on the table. You were hopeless, no one could help you and you can't do it by yourself. There was a moment of silence, only sounds of your breathing and birds chirping were heard.
Well, until someone decided to unlock your front door.
"Babe? You home?" A voice calls out, followed by the crunching and crinkling of plastic bags.
"I brought food."
You perk up at the sound of food, throwing your mechanical pencil away and rushing down the stairs.
"Food?" He chuckles at you, placing the bags of goods on the counter. Seonghwa saunters over to you, wrapping his arms around your shoulders.
"I missed you." He sighs, pulling you closer. You give him a hum in response, snaking your arms around his waist.
"I missed you too." You say, taking a deep breath and nuzzling your face into his chest. He smells nice.
"What were you doing?" He asks, pulling away to take a better look at your face. His brown eyes carried much comfort as he looked at you lovingly, a look that he did not dare to give anyone else.
"That's not important." You say, snuggling closer into him. He looks at you suspiciously, not entirely believing you. He places his hands on your shoulders, pushing you back slightly.
"Y/N..." He says sternly. You bit your lip, looking away from him which was a habit whenever you got nervous. Honestly, it was just homework but you feel like you've been caught while commiting a crime.
You did want to tell him, you really do. He was smart and all but again, you didn't want to burden him. He came all this way for you, you can't just ask for more. His gaze did not falter even once, he looked like a parent scolding his child. You knew that even if you tried to avoid the topic, he'll still try to get it out of you.
So, you gave in with a sigh.
"Homework..."
He looks at you confused before he starts giggling which turned to full on laughing. You were surprised, to say the least. Well, who wouldn't be, his personality took a full 180.
He went from strict parent scolding his child to laughing like a maniac.
"That's it?" He asks, wiping the tears that had gathered on the edge of his eyes. You give him a small nod, unsure of how to answer.
"Yeah...?"
"You could have told me!" He laughs, wrapping his arms around your waist again.
He places his chin on top of your head as he asked. "Isn't it due tommorow?"
"Yes, but homework can wait." You say, not wanting to answer those hellish exercises. Although you had only done about five numbers, you were sure that your brain was fried.
"No, homework cannot wait." He says, sliding one arm under your knee and the other on your back as he picks you up. You let out a squeal in surprise, you did not expect this.
Neither did you want to go back to that wretched desk.
You tried wiggling out of his arms but that only resulted in him holding you tighter.
"Careful, I might drop you if you keep moving around." He warns. Well, that's one way to keep you from moving.
In the end, he managed to carry you up the stairs and into your room. He places you on your spinnt chair, as you like to call it. You pout, looking between him and the book.
"Seonghwaaa~" You whine.
"Don't worry, I'll help you." He says, dragging a chair to sit next to you.
"What don't you understand?" He asks. You smile brightly at him.
My saviour has arrived!
Long story short, he helped you with homework.
He also reassured you that you could always ask him whenever you needed something and that melted your heart.
Best boyfriend you could ask for.
