Keeping in contact with Yongguk after going away for college- requested by @hannibal-moncannibal đ
Oh lordie, 1400 words?
You let out a victorious cry as you collapsed on your bed. You had spent all day unpacking, and it was roughly eleven pm at the moment. You rolled over to grab your phone off the edge of your bed. Not a single message since you landed, but you knew if was only because of the time difference. You laid on your stomach and opened up your video call app, pressing the contact youâd been dying to see all day. It rang for a concerning amount of time before your boyfriend appeared, a sleepy gummy grin on his face.
âHey, baby,â he greeted, voice deep amd hoarse.
You bit your lip as you burried the bottom half of your face in the pillow in front of you.
âMorning, Gukkie,â you replied, slightly muffled. âHowâd you sleep?â
Yongguk groaned, scrunching his face up. âTerrible. The bed was so huge without you hogging it, and I had so much blanket I had no idea what to do with it all,â
You laughed, sitting up with your phone. âHey, you know you miss me!â
His expression faded into a soft smile. âYeah. I missed you the second you left my arms,â
You hummed, puckering your lips at the screen. âI miss you too, baby,â
Yongguk sighed, bringing the phone close to his face. You grinned, imagining how he just kissed the screen after seeing his embarrassed face.
âI love you,â you told him, voice quiet.
âI love you too, baby. Iâve gotta get ready for work, get some sleep alright? Iâll call you before I go to bed.â He said.
âMorning, Gukkie,â you said.
âNight, baby,â he replied.
âAnd then Cheyenne practically chased that boy down,â you said through your laughter.
Yongguk laughed at the image. âI still wish I was there to do it instead.â
You smiled, plopping down on your bed with your phone above your head. âYouâve defended my honor enough times, Gukkie.â You assured him.
He grinned. âThereâs no such thing as enough times. Iâll defend your honor for as long as itâs threatened.â
You snorted, rolling over to bury your face in your pillow as Yongguk cringed at his words.
âGod, when did you get so greasy?â You teased.
âI donât know, baby. You leavingâs effected me in many ways.â He admitted.
You wanted to tell him about so much more, but you knew you had to go to sleep soon and he had work to do.
âI love you so much, Gukkie,â you told him. âCall me before you go to bed.â
âAlright, baby. I love you too. Good night,â he replied.
âAnd when we turned around, Daehyun and the barbeque were nowhere to be seen,â he said, a deep chuckle interrupting some of his words.
You laughed again, leaning back in your chair. âAll of that just to steal a few extra pieces?â
âI would have done the same,â he admitted with a grin.
Your pencil rolled down the desk, and you decided to just put it back in its holder.
âYou finished with your work?â Yongguk asked as he laid down.
âJust about. I donât have this class until later in the day though, I can copy off Erin. Sheâs totally weak to bribery.â You assured him with a laugh.
âJust donât slack off alright?â He reminded you. Iâd say make me proud, but you already have,â
Your eyes stung as Yongguk turned away from the screen to grab his tigger toy. He wrapped it in his arms and you felt silly as you wished you were an inanimate object.
"I love you, baby,â he said. âI wish I could stay up longer to see you off to class.â
You shook your head with a smile, hesitating to speak as you knew your voice would waver. âItâs alright, Gukkie. I love you too, good night,â
âNo, baby Iâm serious look how huge this is,â you said, holding the strawberry up to your phone. âHow is this legal?â
Yongguk laughed at your bewildered expression. âIâm serious too, babe I think thatâs a normal sized strawberry.â
You took a bite out of the tip and your eyes widened at the taste. âItâs super sweet too! Taste!â
Before you realised what you were doing, youâd held the strawberry up to the phone. Your face burned in embarrassment as you set the fruit down and ducked out of the cameraâs view. Yonggukâs deep chuckle filled your head from your earbuds, and he honestly wanted to crawl under the table.
âYouâre so cute,â he said with a gummy grin.
âStop it,â you whined.
âWhen we get a break, Iâll get over there as fast as I can to try those strawberries, alright baby? For now just finish your breakfa-â his words were cut off by a yawn as your heart sank.
âGo to sleep, Gukkie,â you said. âCall me when you wake up,â
âAlright, Iâll see you then. Morning, baby, I love you.â He replied, struggling to keep his eyes open.
âNight, baby. I love you too,â
Day One-Hundred and Twenty
âMake sure you have everything you need, baby,â you reminded him, voice loud to reach him across the room.
âI know, I checked five times,â Yongguk replied, shaking his head with a grin.
âJust to be safe!â You said with a laugh.
The boys were getting ready to promote in another country, and you had normally helped Yongguk pack so he could get the others ready. Lord knows how many times Jongup had forgotten his underwear. Speaking of.
âHey, did Jongup pack his underwear?â You asked, fighting back a yawn.
Yongguk froze before going off screen, making you giggle. You took the time to rest your head, hearing Yonggukâs voice from the other room. Youâd been swamped with exams lately, but you never missed a call.
âThat boy,â Yongguk said as he came back into the room.
You laughed softly as he organised his suitcase once more, talking to himself more than you. You pulled your pillow under your head, overestimating your ability to stay awake.
âSo Iâll make sure to call you when I land, alright, baby?â He ended, turning back to the screen.
He saw your sleeping face and his heart ached at how tired you looked. You had assured him that you had been getting enough sleep, but that didnât mean you werenât overworking yourself between classes, assignments, studying, and calling Yongguk twice a day. He laid down on his bed with his phone, propping it up on his pillow to imagine you laying next to him once more.
âGood night, baby. I love you,â he said before hanging up.
Day Two-Hundred and Fourty
You and Yongguk both finally had a day off. It was the first time in a while that you could talk without one of you falling asleep, so you both decided to go out.
âThis building is apparently super old,â you said, turning to show him the structure over your shoulder.
âReally now?â Yongguk asked. âHow far is it from Main street?â
âItâs like two streets east I think,â you said, sitting on the bench. âItâs really not that hard to miss itâs got a huge lightning rod at the top.â
âAnd a weeping willow tree by the front entrance?â He asked.
âYeah itâs super cool!â You said, turning to show it to him. âLoo-â
You froze, turning back towards your screen. âHey, how did you know thatâŠ? Baby, where are you?â
You tried to look behind Yongguk, noticing some familiar buildings. Ones youâd passed minutes before.
âYongguk?â You asked, teary eyed.
âYes baby?â He asked.
But his voice was coming from two different places- from your phone and from someone sitting on the bench next to you. You looked up in shock, and saw a familiar gummy grin under a hood and shades. You covered your mouth in shock and he leaned in, pulling you into his arms. You tried to catch your breath before you started crying, wrapping your arms around his waist.
âGood morning, baby,â he said, kissing the top of your head.
You let out a short laugh. âGood morning, Gukkie.â
