The moon shimmered down on susin high .
The boy was sat on the hallway floor , eyes closed, softly breathing.
“ Kang-mo ? ” A soft approaching voice mumbled .
It was Mi-rue .
He slowly perched down next to the frail boy . Kang-mo wasn’t asleep , just very quiet.
A soft content hum comes out the thin figure .
“ You’re awake . ” Grumbles Mi-rue , he pauses . “ Why are you sat here ? ”
The word “ tired ” leaves the cracked lips of Kang-mo .
“ Then go sleep in your bed not . . . here . ” says the older boy .
He slowly opens his eyes , not looking at Mi-rue straight away .
When their eyes finally meet , the elder boys usually scrunched angry face softens at the boys sleepy one .
Mi-rue scoots closer .
“ You didn’t answer me properly ” he stops , sighing before continuing .
“ Why did u choose this place to rest ? There’s far more comfortable places to sleep , you know ”
Mumbling “ I really don’t know if I’m honest. ”
Kang-mo looks at the floor , his eyelids feeling heavy .
“ Here . Rest on my shoulder . ”
Their eyes meet for a second , the red haired boy blushes before quickly looking away, mumbling about how he’s too cute for his own good .
A heavy head leans against the warm shoulder .
“ Thank you . ”
Kang-mo’s cheek rubs against the soft material of the older boys jacket , he found it oddly comforting .
The hallway was silent against the soft breathe of the two boys .
Closing his eyes , drifting in and out of sleep , he mumbles another soft “ thank you ” .
Mi-rue smiles while looking at the head of the sleeping boy .
A large hand pulls at the side of the skinny figure . Careful not to wake him . He brings the resting Kang-mo closer . Ensuring he’s warm , before succumbing to rest as well.
