A/N:
Thank you for waiting. ^^

Sometimes, people don't wake up FROM a bad dream, instead, they wake up TO a bad dream. And in Blue's case, that meant him waking up from a nap and getting greeted by a devilishly handsome face a few dangerous millimeters away from his own.
He also felt the back of his senior's hand on his forehead but again that's not the point. Apparently, he can check on Blue without needing to switch faces with him.
Now if that doesn't sound like some bad news then said senior's mischievous grin will definitely pass as one. Getting a glimpse of it is enough to make Blue's hairs stand on their end.
Said senior pulled away afterward, much to the younger's relief but not before scaring the latter out of his wits.
All of Blue's danger alarms are currently blaring in his head. Stealthily, he checked if the door to the passenger side was locked. It is. Bless his soul.
"You look like you've seen a ghost." Dew chuckles.
Blue blinked.
"Right. I probably did." He agreed to his senior absentmindedly. His heart is currently beating a thousand beats per minute while his mind is flashing him "wrong turn scenarios".
"I'm too handsome to be a ghost." His senior replied. He winked too but Blue is already too distracted to notice.
"Sure. You are." At this point, Blue is just mindlessly agreeing to anything his senior is saying.
He can't help it. He's a cheese in the trap.
"Sigh. Having this face is a crime." The older shook his head and looked like the biggest problem in the world is weighing him down.
"Righ--"
"Huh???!!! Now where is this confidence coming from?" Blue thought after realizing what his senior just said but was wise enough not to say it out loud.
"Is that why you liked me?" Dew asked teasing Blue even more.
"When did I-" Blue almost rolled his eyes but held himself at the last minute. "That's just one of the reasons, Phi." And immediately corrected himself.
"There are other reasons?" The older asked, curiosity evident in his eyes.
Shoot.
Blue is facepalming himself internally. Apparently he is out to dig self a deep, wide hole where he can bury himself alive. While standing.
"Darn. This is what I get by lying."
"O-of course. There are." Blue said as his face paled even more. "But can we talk about it again some other time, Phi. You see, I don't feel well at the moment and would like to rest more." Blue said as he crosses his fingers. Actually, Blue is already feeling better but then again he wants to get out of this trap so this excuse has to work or else . . .
"Let me help you up and send you to your room." Dew said after pushing a button and quickly got out of the driver's side. He then opened the door on Blue's side and gently helped him down. He also took the younger's bag and supported him.
"Phi, this is too much. I can walk on my own. And I can carry my bag." Blue protested and tried to grab his backpack but Dew wouldn't let him.
"It's fine. Let me do it."
In the end, Blue has to settle with his senior supporting him like he injured his leg and as if his backpack has a sack of rice squeezed in it.
When they reached his room, Blue visibly relaxed. Finally, a door that doesn't make him scared. And one that he himself can lock and open as he pleases.
"This is my room, Phi. Thank you for sending me to my door." Blue said and thanked his senior as politely as he can. He means it.
"Aren't you going to invite me inside?" The older asked sounding a bit hopeful in Blue's opinion.
"I-It's a jungle inside, Phi. Probably next time. I'll have to clean first."
"But you're alone-"
"All the more reason why I shouldn't, right?"
"I'm not good at taking care of someone sick but . . . "
"Why is he trying so hard?" Blue shakes his head.
"Phi, I'll be fine. No. I think I'm already fine. I mean, a tiny bit fine. So yeah, no worries. I can handle it."
It was a struggle to convince his senior to leave but somehow Blue managed to do it.
In the end, Dew agreed to let Blue rest at his room alone and contented himself in getting the younger's number. He called him immediately right there and then and gave explicit instructions to call him should he feel unwell or if he wants to have the older get him something.
Both of which, Blue had not the slightest bit intention to do.
Still Blue made it appear that he will call Dew if he so much as happens to want to get himself a candy or when he needs someone to find his slippers and that settled it for the senior.
Once the porcu- or rather his senior is out of sight, Blue closed his door and slumped on the floor.
Looks like he's going to live for another day.
