Chapter Text
What do people do when they can’t fall asleep?
Jaechan reaches for Seoham’s arm, putting it around his stomach. My safest place. He doesn’t need to know what’s happening in the world outside. How cold, how lonely.
If he fell asleep, tomorrow would come too soon. And he would already miss the warmth of Seoham’s body behind him, wrapped all around him.
“I don’t wanna leave,” he whispers to no one. “Don’t wanna leave you.”
Seoham’s arm around him tightens, as if he could hear him. Jaechan closes his eyes and keeps repeating in his head. I don’t wanna leave.
