[PART 1] "Sleep Talk"

---------------

When morning awoke, the atmosphere was already different.

Yesterday, the atmosphere was exactly the same. Your beeping alarm was not forced off by an angry and annoyed man, but just left alone to ring. It's been a whole 3 days since your roommate, Soonyoung, stopped annoying you.

Usually, every day would never end without the two of you bickering. Every single day, you two found a fault within one another and would continuously talk it off. You reached to your alarm and turned it off. The disturbingly silent house felt uncomfortable.

After washing up, you closed the door to the bathroom and was presented an extremely empty kitchen and living room. Even in the past 3 days he was at least walking around the house.

Something definitely felt off. You put away your towel that was used to dry your face, and quickly walked towards Soonyoung's room. You stopped in front of his door, your hand hovering above the doorknob.

What if he was changing?

That was impossible. He would never sleep overtime and usually he was always complaining to you about your alarm.

Quietly, you twisted the doorknob and peeked inside.

"Soonyoung?" You quietly and gently called. He didn't answer but you could hear his breathing. You quickly walked to him only to find him laying on his bed drenched in sweat. His face was rather pale.

"Soonyoung! Are you okay!?" You sat on his bed and felt his forehead that was burning. You took off your hand that was lightly wet with his sweat.

Quickly, you ran out of his room and grabbed a cup of water, along with medicine to help with the fever. You ran back into Soonyoung's room and sat beside him, helping him sit up.

He silently let you help him up.

"Thank you," he muttered before drinking the water. You yourself didn't know what to say. It was a side of him you never saw.

You returned the cup and medicine to the kitchen and walked back to his room with a cold wet towel. He was already laying down in bed and it seems that a lot of his sweat was gone. You gently set the wet towel on his forehead.

Letting out a sigh of relief, you stood up to leave but his gentle and warm hand took your wrist. His eyes were still closed as if it was an action that his body wanted.

Slowly, his hand slid down to your delicate fingers and held onto your pinky. You sat on his bed and looked at him who was now sleeping peacefully. He looked different in your eyes.

"Sorry.." he spoke. His hand clenched onto your pinky. You made yourself comfortable on the bed, your legs were stretched out in front of you, your back hit the wall and you had your hands in your laps.

'Was he sleeptalking?' You wondered.

"Usually I'm not a mean person... It doesn't really annoy me... Your alarm..." You smiled. Suddenly his hand took a hold of your arm and he edged his face closer to your lap, the towel on his forehead slid off.
