The Lion's Den - Stray Kids X Reader (Vampire/au)

Firsts and Lasts

"Today you're feeding again?" Chan gave you an apologetic smile.

"Sorry. Kind of a necessity sweetheart."

"No! It's okay. It literally keeps you alive." You laughed nervously.

Chan lifted himself from the counter and walked closer to where you were seated, kissing the top of your head. He seemed to be doing that more regularly.

"Hmmm, I wonder who I'll get to stay with you tonight."

Without hesitation, Jeongin popped his head up from his place on the floor in the living room and ran to the kitchen. "I'll do it! Please! I'll do it!"

Chan smirked knowingly.

"I don't knoooowww... maybe I should ask Seungm-"

"I said I'll do it!" He barked back in a very intense accent that would come out only when he was mad.

"Jeongin, are you from Busan?"

His intensity diminished as a smile spread across his face. "Yes! Well I was. Are you okay if I'm with you tonight?"

You agreed. "Of course love."

He seemed to relax by your response as if he had to prove something. And honestly, given what happened last time, maybe he did.

~🩶~

You stretched in your bed with the headset over your ears waiting for Jeongin to come up. It didn't take him long.

He was apprehensive about tonight. You could tell by his fidgety hands and cautious steps forward.

"You stayed away from the action?"

He nodded. "I won't go down until later, like tomorrow. Chan needs time to settle before he can take my place."

You hummed in response then got comfortable. It only lasted so long though, as you realized Jeongin was still standing at the door.

"Why don't you get changed then come lay down with me?"

"A-are you sure?"

You shot a thumbs up. "Absolutely cutie, come cuddle."

You had gotten overly forward with them. Some of them could handle it, like Minho, Chan, Seungmin, Felix, him especially because he was always down to cuddle, or hug, or whatever else, and Hyunjin as well, sometimes. Sometimes he was shy, like when he was kissing you all over- you shook your head trying not to get lost in the memory. But the rest of them got extremely flustered around you. Jeongin was no exception as he stood there too timid to move.

"Jeongin?"

"Huh? Oh! Yeah! Be right back!"

Unfortunately without him there, you felt weary. This feeling was different from the incident with Jisung. You rubbed your tired eyes. Maybe today just exhausted you.

You blinked, and from the corner of your eye a figure stood by the doorway making you flinch. But just as soon as you looked closer, it was gone.

You pulled the blanket around yourself and shut your eyes like a child scared of the dark. You swear you heard someone enter your room.

They crept to the side of the bed, and you could hear slow breathing. You tried to steady yours but you felt like you were suffocating.

Then, it was gone.

"Y/n?"

You gasped. "I-I'm here, Jeongin."

You felt the bed dip on the side and a curious face look at you hiding under the blanket. "Are you okay?"
