Ring.... Ring.... Ring.... Ring....

Awoken to the sound of annoying ringing, I reach for my phone on the nightstand.

"What?"
"Did I wake you up?" chirped the voice on the other side of the call.

Seriously?

"No. Of course not. I'm always awake first thing in the morning, Jisoo," I drawl out, my response punctuated with a long yawn. "Is something wrong?"

There was a bit of silence, then a lazy 'no.'
"Then why are you calling me at-" I pull the phone away from my ear to read the time on the brightly illuminated screen, "6:18 in the morning? Are you serious?" I frustratingly kick the blanket off of my lower half, knowing I won't be able to fall back asleep later.

In doing so, the model next to me, adorably snuggled into the side of my body, also lost his main source of heat. I pull the blanket back over him so he would be more comfortable.
"To check in on Jimin, of course. Why would I want to talk to you?" The woman playfully joked, the tone in her speech making it obvious she was smiling on the other side.
"Ha-ha. Yes, very funny. Well, Jimin, who's sleeping, like a normal person would at be doing 6 am, I believe is okay. I'm not going to wake him up for you to bother him with your questions," I jab back at her. "By the way, why are you calling me instead of just calling him?"

"His phone was going straight to voicemail, not even ringing. I don't think he got the chance to grab his phone, or anything at all for that matter, after last night," Jisoo reasoned.

"Oh."
Quite murmuring could be heard on the line, from which I could only assume, because she lives alone, would be her submissive. Knowing damn well that they don't live together, as it would be breaking the rules, I decide to poke fun.
"Did Rose have fun last night?" I smirk with raised eyebrows, though she couldn't see. "You know that goes against policy, right?"

"I- That's not- We didn't do anything, just cuddled." Rose also piped up to vouch for her claim.

"'Cuddled.' Okay," I note. It's not news that they're together. A lot of couples in a contract end up dating, though that's not intentional. What they do as a couple outside of work is none of my business, but it does go against the original idea of it. Considering she is one of the owners, I cut her slack. As biased as it is, the owners of the companies can understandably get away with bending rules, whereas a regular employee may not.

"I'll let you know how he is when he wakes up, okay?" Jisoo agreed and after farewells, I ended the call.

I turn my head to look at Jimin, still peacefully swept away by slumber. Slowly, he exhales small puffs of breath onto my arm. His solemn expression matched with his puffy and reddened eyes.

To me, he's still a stranger. I know nothing about him except the thing he wanted nobody to know. The irony of that. I'm just glad he's no longer in that situation. So far, it has generally blown my mind with how well he's been holding up and even how much trust he has in a complete stranger (though technically he knows me through his best friend).

I'm just afraid of what would happen if he bottles everything up. All of his problems and worries. He would be a ticking time bomb.

I manage to wiggle my way out of the model's koala-like grasp and tuck the blanket around him again. I still can't believe she couldn't wait until a more appropriate time to ask that. Who the hell is awake at 6 am?!

With a huff, I slip on the slippers at the side of my bed to save my feet from the icy hardwood flooring and try to gain balance as I tiredly shuffle towards the bathroom.
