you slammed your head on the floor that you were laying on. frustrated with yourself, you rolled onto your back and stared at the ceiling.

this world won't hold us down? no, you just used down, that'd be stupid to use it again. bound? no, that sounds dumb.

a sigh left your lips. you started singing lyrics that you had came up with a few hours prior, but you were unable to come up with any additional lyrics.

you stared at the ceiling again and started to day dream a bit. however, after a few minutes, a familiar face appeared above you.

"what are you doing here?" shotaro asked.

you broke out of your day dream, "what are you doing here?" you repeated his question, "i thought you left already."

"i did. it's morning now, i came here to practice," he explained. "did you go home last night?"

"what time is it?" you questioned and grabbed your phone that was next to your tablet. you looked at the time, "it's nine in the morning?" you asked.

"you didn't go home again? you stayed up late again? you stayed here?! y/n, how many times do i have to tell you to take a break?" shotaro started to scold you. "geez, you're gonna worry everyone if you keep this up."

you sighed and put your phone back down. "i've been trying to write lyrics all night. i didn't even release that i had pulled an all-nighter," you mentioned and rolled back onto your stomach, "i'm stuck," you pouted.

shotaro crouched down next to you and looked at your tablet, "well, i'm sure you can figure it out, but you need to get some rest. when were you supposed to go in today?" he asked while turning the tablet's screen off.

"today? around one for a meeting," you answered.

"okay, get up," he said and stood up. he helped you up and grabbed your stuff that was scattered on the floor. "go over there," he said and gestures towards the corner with a couch.

"huh?"

"you're going to sleep. i'm going to be in here for awhile, so i'll wake you up when you need to leave," he said and both of you went over to the couch. he put your stuff down on a nearby table. "don't just stand there, lay down," he said while taking his hoodie off.

you laid down on the couch and shotaro folded his hoodie. he lifted your head up and put his hoodie underneath your head.

"sleep," he said and picked up your jacket, which was underneath your belongings, and draped it over you.

"i can't just automatically sleep. i'm not even tired," you said to him while pulling your jacket up so it was over your shoulders.

he sighed, "you need to sleep. i know you run on crackhead energy most of the time, but you need to get some rest."

shotaro placed his hand on your hair and reached down to kiss your forehead.

"how about i cover your eyes until you fall asleep?" he suggested. "maybe that'll work."

"i doubt it."

"close you eyes and we'll find out," he said. you closed your eyes and felt shotaro's hand over your eyes.

sleepiness that should've kicked in hours prior finally kicked in for you. your body relaxed and after a few minutes, you were fast asleep.

"sleep well," shotaro whispered and kissed your forehead again. he stayed with you for a bit before starting to practice.
