Namjoon stood at the front door, his body aching from the 32-hour shift at the hospital. He looked for his legs, he just wanted to collapse onto his bed.

Before he could do that he heard Y/n's voice echoing through the house.

"Namjoon! Sir Namjoon, Look over here?"

He sighed, realizing there was no escape. He turned to her, he saw Y/n clutching her chemistry books.

"Nams sir, I really need your help with this exam. I'll fail if you don't help me," she pleaded, her eyes wide with desperation.

"I just got off a 32-hour shift, Y/n. I'm exhausted," he replied, rubbing his temples.

"But I hurt my leg, and I can't focus. Please, just for a bit?" Y/n's expression softened, revealing the vulnerability behind her request.

“This is why I told you to study everyday. If you had done that, you wouldn't be crying like this.” Namjoon said.

“Please, sorry, I regret it now, come and help.” She pouted.

Namjoon hesitated, torn between his exhaustion and his concern for Y/n. Finally, he sighed again. "Fine, but make it quick."

Y/n’s face lit up, “Can I atleast take a quick shower?” Namjoon asked.

“Yeah, but hurry up okay? I will make coffee for you.” She exclaimed.

Namjoon took a shower, and after that he stared at his bed. He badly wants to sleep, but he can sleep later too. He doesn't want Y/n to get bad grades or worse, fail the exam.

He went to her house and to her room. She gave him coffee. Which he needed.

Namjoon patiently explained chemistry concepts, occasionally glancing at Y/n's determined expression. He could only wish for her to be this focus for the rest of the year too. But she only studies the night before.

Y/n listened attentively, absorbing as much knowledge as she could. “You make everything sound so easy,”

“If you had paid attention you would have found it easy too,” Namjoon exclaimed.

However, as the night wore on, the weariness caught up with Namjoon.

His explanations began to slow, and his eyelids grew heavier. Eventually, he found himself really sleepy. “Practice these equations.”

She took her notebook and started practicing the chemistry equations he told her to practice.

She looked and noticed Namjoon sleeping, Y/n chuckled softly, realizing Namjoon's exhaustion had finally caught up with him.

Carefully, she covered him with a blanket, grateful for the effort he had put into helping her despite his own exhaustion.

As Namjoon dozed off, Y/n continued reviewing her notes, determined to make the most of the knowledge he had imparted.

Namjoon awoke to the soft glow of Y/n's room. Y/n her head across her desk, surrounded by open books, her face serene in sleep.

Namjoon's feelings are complex; he dislikes her actions, yet there's an underlying fondness that he can't deny.

Namjoon found himself unable to look away, Y/n stirred, blinking her eyes open. She noticed Namjoon's gaze and then she looked at the time.

“How could I sleep! It's 2:35 AM!” She exclaimed.

Namjoon put his hand over his neck which started to hurt now. “Yeah really late, I should go home.”

He wanted to sleep for some time before going to work again tomorrow.
