Now if only it were a sweet dream and not a nightmare
A/N: Writing is a bit shit here lol but I hope you enjoy
There are just those times youâre exhausted and want to flop onto the bed and doze off for hours. It just happened to be one of those days.
You had been going out all day long, hanging out with your love, Yonghoon, and his band members. You spent all day with them, from having lunch to going to arcades, Yonghoon just wanted you to bond more with his bandmates.
You were happy, really, but all those things you guys did drain your energy and you need to rest now. Yonghoon told you to go home first since he still had band practice afterwards. Honestly, where does he get all his energy from?
You didnât really bother to change or wash up. You just took off your shoes and bag and laid face up on the bed, slowly drifting to sleep.
âUgh,â you groaned, getting up from your bed and reaching for your phone. You wouldâve rejected the call but you saw the callerâs id and itâs Yonghoon.
âHi baby,â You heard his voice over the phone, sounding rather worn out. âYou sound tired, going to sleep?â
âYeah, and you were bothering me,â was all you said before ending the call. You didnât really pay attention to the tone of your voice, which seemed like you were pissed at him. You were tired after all.
Before you put your phone on your desk, a message came in
Donât forget to dream of me
Iâll be home in an hour
You ignored his message, too tired to reply. Again, you went to sleep with no cleaning up.
It took you only a few minutes to doze off into a deep sleep.
It was dark all around you, you could hardly see what was in front of you. You squinted hard through the black abyss, hands in front of you as you tried to find something to hold onto. It was when you felt something, a person, standing still in their place.
The lights flickered on, revealing your lover before you. He wasnât looking at you, no, he was staring off to the distance, to the darkness of whatever this place was.
You realized where you are now: a dark field, no light for some reason. There was no moon shining above. It was just⊠Empty.
âWhat do you want?â His voice echoed. It wasnât his usual chocolate-like voice. It was dull, cold even.Â
âWhy are you even here?â He said again.Â
Although it was only those two words, it felt like a blade to the chest. You instinctively stepped away from him, bowing your head.
âI donât want to see you anymore,â he said. It was then you realize his body slowly losing opacity, fading away like dust. You tried to reach out to him, but he started to get fainter.
You awoke with a jolt, your body sweatier than before and panting heavily. The images of your dream started returning to you, your hands reaching up to rub your face, recollecting yourself.
What was that? Why was Yonghoon like that to you?
What was it supposed to mean?
A knock came from the door, snapping you out of your trance. You shakily get up from bed and head to the door.
You opened it without thinking of checking who it was. Turns out it was Yonghoon, drenched in sweat and exhausted.
âY/N?â He asked, his voice muffled because of the mask. âAre you okay?â
You had no idea how bad you looked, you were a mess. You couldnât let yourself say anything and your voice was stuck in your throat.
âHey, whatâs wrong?â His hands gripping onto your shoulders. You finally lost it. You broke down there and then. Yonghoon panicked momentarily before pulling you into a hug. You didnât care about how smelly the two of you were, your hands made their way to his back, clutching the fabric of his jacket tight.
âShhh itâs okay,â he whispered, letting you sob into his chest. He picked up your petite frame and carried you to the bed.Â
Once you calmed down, you finally managed to explain to him what happened.
âYou just seemed so⊠you hated me.â
Yonghoonâs face was sullen. He pulled you close and pressed a kiss to your forehead.
âYou know I would never hate you,â he said gently, rubbing circles on your back. âI love you too much.â
You sighed and dropped your head. âIâm sorry if I was a bit mean on the phone.â You felt like it was probably the reason you had that dream. You shouldnât be mean to him, you never should. He has always been so caring to you. There was nothing about him you can get mad about.
âItâs okay, you were a bit tired, thatâs all,â he said. âWe should get cleaned up before heading to bed.â
Unlike before, you washed up and brushed your teeth before changing into more comfortable clothes, Yonghoon doing the same once you were done.Â
He crawled into the sheets right next to you, wrapping his right arm around your waist. His other hand playing your hair before placing small kisses over your face. It was ticklish and it made you squirm in his embrace, but you eventually melted into it, snuggling your head into his torso as he hummed a soft tune.
The two of you stayed like that for a moment before you started to slowly drift to sleep, not missing the words he says as you fall asleep
âGood night, my world. I love you.â
