Suga's POV

I. Hate. Night. Shifts.

Well... to be specific, Umji's night shifts.

She usually works in the mornings and when she has work at night, she does it at home and it lasts for about an hour. Now it was different. She instead works at night from 7 to 6 in the morning. And worse, she only comes home for a while and goes back to work soon after. She has been working on these shifts for 3 weeks straight. I barely see her at night. I can only see her for like a minute before she goes back to work. This really makes me worry. I missed eating dinner with her, sleeping with her, cuddling her. This is the worst.

"Hyung, wanna get another drink?" Jimin tapped me on the shoulder. I was hanging out with my friends just after my shift at work.

"No thanks. I'll go home first." I stood up.

"Okay then. See you." He waved at me.

Later, I arrived home. It was 6:30. I hoped that I get to see her, even just for a bit. I opened the door and I was a bit disappointed that I saw no one inside.

She left early... What a bummer...

I went inside the kitchen and saw a plate of food on top of the table with a note beside it that read:

Hope you eat the dinner I made for you... Luv u

—Omuji

I sighed and sat down. It was supposed to be a movie night with the two of us and I looked forwards to it. But it turned out to be another night without her. I guess I have to go to bed early again.

Hours later...

I can't sleep. I wasted hours of tossing and turning myself but I just can't sleep. Naturally, my eyes would shut itself when I lay down and I would fall asleep after that. Since I sleep a lot. This time, even if I shut my eyes, I just can't fall asleep.

I turned around to look at her side of the bed. Nothing. No one. I missed sleeping with her. I missed cuddling her. The bed feels so cold without her. I'm also worried about her working on these shifts without rest.

Ugh! Why did those shifts have to come? Stupid night shifts... I cursed.

I sat up. I really can't sleep. I got out and walked to the kitchen, with a blanket in hand, grabbing a glass of water. Then, I decided to sleep on the couch, hoping to get some shut eye. But to no avail, I kept on tossing and turning as I covered myself with my blanket.

Minutes later, I heard a voice. "Oppa?" I stopped moving as someone removed the blanket on my head. It was Umji. My eyes couldn't believe it. She's here early. "Why are you sleeping on the couch?"

I rubbed my eyes. "Is that really you? Or you're only here for a bit and will go back to work again?"

"Surprise! I was able to finish my shift early. No need to go back." She smiled. "And I know you were looking forward to this movie night, so luck is on my side."

I was grinning ear to ear. She's finally here! I pulled her into a tight hug. I missed her in my arms. "Well then. Let's get this movie night going."

~~~

We were now having a great night. Watching a movie with us snuggling in a big blanket. I noticed a small yawn escaping from her mouth. "Tired, aren't we?"

"It's okay. We still need to finish this movie." She replied.

"We don't have to. You're probably tired from all that work."

"That's okay—" I cut her off by gently resting her head on my shoulder.

"Sleep." She nodded while letting out another yawn.

"I have a day off tomorrow. And another thing, I don't have to work these shifts anymore."

Finally! Goodbye, night shifts!

"That's good." I heard light snores. I smiled as I looked at her sleeping peacefully. She really is beautiful. I turned off the TV and carried her bridal style to our shared bedroom.

"Now the bed doesn't feel cold anymore." I pulled her closer to me, letting her snuggle on my chest. I kissed her forehead before drifting to sleep.
