Work Text:
it's the middle of the september. the part of the autumn where it's not that cold but frisky chill breeze ruffles your hair. the time of the year where it's kind of necessity to drink a cup of coffee or some streamy hot chocolate.
it's high time when you can wear those cozy loose sweaters, and hide your cold body in stretched cardigans and coats. this particular part of the year when your fingers are easily getting red.
the time of the year when sun sets earlier. that chilly part of the year which you can endure. that part of autumn which doesn't seem like a suffer. that part of the autumn which is not that hard to go through. the part of the year where sun rises a bit later than during the summertime.
jeongin wakes up abruptly. little does he know why he is awake at such god damn time. he looks swiftly at clock noticing that it is four am in the morning, and he has to get up at 7, cause he has morning lectures. he sighs heavily, feeling emptiness in his chest, remembering that he went to bed at 2 am for gods sake, which meant that he has slept only for two hours and, honestly it sucked. he had two lectures in the morning, he had to end the assignment, and submit it until two pm, not to mention that he had work at four and after that a pile of homework to accomplish and probably seungmin will need him to do some household chores. he cursed himself with his god damn sleeping schedule.
exhaling and closing tired eyes once again,feeling the slight nausea and headache make themselves evident. whatever it takes he has to fall asleep. but it doesn't feel right though? his hands and legs are cold and so his comforter. the cold morning wind entered the room through the opened room. well, it was jeongin's idea, after all, to leave the window half-opened. he feel even more anxious that this all doesn't help him to receive the precious hours of the very much needed sleep.
reluctantly, standing up from the warm place makes situation even worse because now he feels even more cold and numb than it was before. eventually, closing the window he trails to their shared bed, quickly sliding into the warmth of his comforter.
jeongin looks at the place right beside him, seeing seungmin being fast asleep. his boyfriend looks so relaxed in his unbothered sleep, that jeongin reluctantly smiles to himself. his long dark lashes flutter in his sleep and there is only sound of his calm breathing in the dim lighted room with utter silence. he looks undoubtedly cute like that in this peaceful state. not like his sassy playful self he is, when he's awake.
"god, is it legal to be that cute being asleep?"
he thinks to himself,smile spreading even more on his tired face. well, he can probably lay here this way and just watch his adorable boyfriend being asleep?
jeongin allows himself to indulge himself a bit more and relish this peaceful moment, watching his boyfriend fast asleep.
seungmin actually isn't better himself, he went to bed a bit earlier than jeongin. studying at the university honestly sucked with it's neverending projects, short deadlines, tests and eventually it's stupid exams. it was dreadful and exhausting, it wasn't something new to anybody anyways.
but out of nowhere he hears latter's voice, some rustling of the blanket and small sleepy voice after that, asking quietly "innie,baby? you awake?" his nose peaks out from the warm comforter and he blinks harder, focusing his sleepy eyes at wide awake jeongin. "you okay?''
at this point, he doesn't even know what to answer to this and panics slightly. it is not like he feels bad or something is particularly wrong, that's why he sighs quietly covering himself only more with the hem of the comforter. ''it's okay, hyung, go to sleep", at the end of the day worrying seungmin and disturbing his sleep wasn't on his plans.
"does something bother you? it's.." he turns his head aside looking at the display of the clock on the nightstand, noticing that it's almost five am in the morning "we have to wake up early, so... we have to go to bed, innie" seungmin yawns softly, covering his mouth with his hand.
"yeah, yeah I know that.. it's just I've left the window open and I got extremely cold.. and now I'm absolutely wide awake.. and I didn't want to ruin your beauty sleep.. anyway i'm sorry for waking you up.." he said bluntly but with small apologetic smile peeking on his face.
"it's okay, don't worry." seungmin rubs his eyes slightly, being half awake now "come here, love, you have to sleep a bit more, you know.." he pulls jeongin softly in his warm embrace, placing his boyfriend's head on his chest and putting his arms around his waist.
jeongin sighs quietly appreciating his boyfriend's soothing warmth, hugging him with both hands, while hiding his cold nose in seungmin's collar. "you're so cold, baby. no wonder why you can't fall asleep like that" seungmin giggles slightly, pulling the blanket over them and after that leaving a small peck on jeongin's cold forehead.
seungmin looks at the windows in their room, seeing the peeking sun and the sunrise itself. seeing the night slowly changing into the morning, meaning that new day has already come. meaning also that it was another day of their lifes, which they could spend together, even in the business and swift fussing of the life.
he couldn't imagine his life without the boy, which was now slowly drifting off in his embrace, looking so small and relaxed, finally getting the warmth which he and his body craved. older hears small "thank you, hyung" falling from younger's lips and seungmin feels warmth not only in his whole body but in his heart.
they eventually fall asleep like that with their bodies intertwined this way, with their limbs being wrapped all each other in comforting heat of each other bodies.
