Slowly opening the door, taehyung peeked his head in, gazing straight into the bed where the black haired male is sleeping peacefully.

A low chuckle left his mouth seeing jungkook laying on his stomach with arms hugging the pillow lovingly. His dead like sleeping habits never changed.

He gulped seeing the prominent biceps of jungkook as the other was wearing a sleeveless tank top.

Taehyung walked forward before keeping the coffee cup that he was holding at the nightstand and sliding the window curtains, allowing the sunlight to fully enter the room.

Taehyung turns around, peering the room intensely. Two medicine bottle kept on the table, one he recognized--sleeping pills. His suitcase was abandoned on a side, opened with some of his clothes falling out on the ground.

He sighed as jungkook didn't set his clothes on the closet. Such a lazy ass he is.

Jungkook squirmed a bit when the light hit his face, a frown forming as he turns his head to the other side with a small groan.

Taehyung had a soft smile as he stared at the pout appearing on jungkook's lips. He leaned down, staring at his face intently.

He lifted his hand, fingers softly proceeding to trace the scar on his cheek. His touch seem to magically erase away the lines of frown on jungkook's face, relaxing with a content smile.

Taehyung chuckled, a suppressed one then continued to touch the small scar on his forehead, near to his hairline.

"Those must've pained a lot" Taehyung whispered, can't even imagine the original forms of those scars. The blood smeared face of jungkook, lacerated and injured.

Taehyung retreated his hand as if that thought burnt his fingers. He stood back with a deep sigh. He needs to wake him up or else he would be late for his work.

"Koo--" Taehyung quickly grabbed his mouth, never been this thankful that jungkook is sleeping.

He can't picture the awkwardness and cringe jungkook would be feeling when he by chance hears that nickname. It's like seeing jungkook's face and then his tongue will automatically utter kookie.

Taehyung slapped his face, he was going to make such mistake yesterday too but he was cautious about it, reminding himself everytime.

Taking a deep breath and relaxing his expression, taehyung tried again. "Jungkook?"

He huffed, what does he even expect? Jungkook never woke up in the first call. It either got successful by shouting his name loudly or shaking his body vigorously.

Taehyung rolled the sleeves of his oversized sweatshirt and leaned down to hold the bare shoulder of jungkook. Feeling the warmth of his body made taehyung to brace himself and then give tiny shakes on jungkook.

"Jungkook!" He increased the force on his shakes. "Wake up jungkook!"

"It's already seven... You need to get ready" Taehyung was getting irked at this point when jungkook shrugged his shoulders to get rid of his hold.

Jungkook grunted, wriggling away from the intrusion of his peaceful sleep. For god's sake, he got such a good slumber after ages.

Taehyung huffed and gave one hard smack on his back that jungkook jumped up with a yelp, startled by the hit. Taehyung nonchalantly rubbed his hand, his red palm seemed more effected.

"Wh--what" Jungkook frantically looked around, his blurry eyes taking a moment to get focus.

"Jungkook, it's me" Taehyung told in the intention to relax him but as jungkook moved his head towards him, his eyes grew large in pure shock.
