10 : nightmare.

"what are you doing?" taehyung confusely asked as jimin grabs a pillow and an extra blanket from the cabinet.

"ah, i'm gonna sleep in the living room cause i figured you don't want me to sleep together with you." jimin simply answered.

taehyung just watched the small boy leave with the pillow and blanket. he's debating whether he just let jimin sleep in the same bed with him or just let him do whatever he wants.

taehyung shrugs and continues scrolling on his phone.

but his mind got flooded again.

of course, by jimin.

he groans and threw his phone on the other side of the bed. his mind keeps wandering to jimin and jimin. jimin in the morning, jimin in the afternoon and jimin in the evening.

he hugged a bolster and tries to make himself fall asleep but it won't work, he keeps thinking about jimin whose now probably sleeping on the cold couch in the living room.

taehyung feels guilty.

feeling annoyed, taehyung stood up from the bed and went downstairs to the living room.

as he arrived to the place, he saw jimin curled up on the couch and is sleeping peacefully. taehyung approached him and stared down at him.

"are you awake?" he asks softly.

he waited for at least twenty seconds for the younger's response but there's none.

"a fast sleeper, huh?" he kneels down to reach jimin's level.

without knowing, he stared at jimin's angel-like face. the boy is really pretty with his soft and plump pink lips, chubby cheeks and beautiful blue eyes, matching with his pretty pink soft hair.

taehyung, without thinking properly, poked jimin's right chubby cheek with his pointy finger. he's amazed by the softness and smoothness of the skin. he retracts his hand once jimin squirmed from the contact on his cheek but still sleeping.

"he looks so peaceful. guess i'll just have to carry his heavy ass." taehyung said and carries jimin with his right arm under jimin's neck and his left arm under the smaller's legs.

he made his way upstairs to the bedroom. luckily, jimin is not that heavy unlike what he expected. the boy is really light that he got worried but only just a tiny bit.

he gently placed the boy on the bed then he laid down on the other side of the bed with him facing jimin. taehyung pulled the blanket up until their chests to protect themselves from the cold temperature.

he, once again, stared at the angel im front of him. now he admits it, jimin is really pretty and truly an angel.

3:30 am

taehyung woke up by the sound of soft cries coming from the person beside him. he squinted his eyes open to look at the boy.

he saw jimin hugging a pillow tightly while crying on his sleep. perhaps, he's having a nightmare?

taehyung got worried and shakes jimin's body to wake him up but the boy won't even budge and just keeps crying.

"jimin, wake up. it's just a dream." taehyung said.

"p-please don't hurt me.." jimin sobs and hugs the pillow tighter.

taehyung furrowed his brows, who's gonna hurt jimin on his dream?

"jimin, who is it?" he shakes the boy once again to wake him up from this nightmare.

"d-don't, please. i'm s-sorry t-taehyung." jimin mumbles.

taehyung froze on his spot and stops shaking jimin. him hurting jimin? no way, he couldn't even imagine hurting jimin physically. at first, he badly wants to do it but now, everything changed.

"i won't hurt you so please stop crying." taehyung softly said.

he gently scoops the small boy on his arms and hugs him ever so warmly and gently. he also drew circles on jimin's back to comfort him.

not long enough, jimin stopped crying and went back on his peaceful sleep but this time, in his husband's arms.

"good morning, taehyung!" jimin happily said once taehyung went down the stairs. he was making sunny side up eggs for them.

taehyung smiles a little and sat on one of the chairs. "good morning, jimin."

jimin blushed by the very deep morning voice of the older boy. "i-i made ham, toast, eggs and hot chocolates for us. do you w-want to eat with me..? it's okay if you don't want to or you only want a toast."

"uh jimin?" taehyung asks.

"y-yes?"

"can you make that sandwich again?" taehyung shyly asked.

why the fuck am i doing this. he thought.

"o-oh! the sandwiches before? sure!!" jimin happily said then finished cooking the eggs before he proceeds to make the special sandwiches for taehyung.

"m-make two." taehyung watch jimin make the sandwiches.

"of course i will make two! j-just for you." jimin giggled and shows taehyung his adorable eyesmile and wide grin.

taehyung can't help but stare at jimin. his heart starts beating and he feels weird things on his stomach. he doesn't know what those things means but he kinda.. like it.

"ta-da! special sandwiches for someone special!" jimin served the plate of sandwiches in front of taehyung. after that, he took the seat in front of the older.

"ah no. sit here." taehyung patted the vacant chair beside his own chair.

jimin's eye widened but in a cute way. "a-are you sure, taehyung?"

"yes so come here now and let's eat." taehyung smiles.

jimin happily stands and brings his plate of food with him. he sat beside taehyung. "let's enjoy our simple breakfast!"
