@bitchscoped : and it's in these early hours of the morning that he feels most at ease now. strange, in a way - how once upon a time he would never have thought of spending the night, wouldn't have entertained it and yet, it was a daily occurrence now. as sunlight spills through the curtains, hyeon opens his eyes, a soft groan leaving his lips as he rolls over in bed, seeking the warmth that he'd longed to have by his side for years. " come here . . . " words that are barely uttered as his hand finds it's way to yi-joon's chest, a satisfied sound from his throat as he shuffles closer until head is rested upon the chest of the man he loves.
the man he's always loved. " i'm not ready to get up yet. let's stay in bed for a little while longer, okay ? "
𝐃𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐒𝐄 𝐅𝐄𝐋𝐓 𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄 𝐀 𝐃𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌. A life like this was never something that Yi-joon had imagined for himself. It wasn’t one that he was allowed to imagine — he was supposed to behave, stay locked in the chains that bound him to a destiny that he didn’t want to be a part of anymore. At one point, he did — at one point he wanted nothing but to gain the approval of his parents. But what was the point if he couldn’t have the man that he had wanted? The partner that he wanted, if he had to live an unhappy life just for the sake of his parent's desires?
𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐔𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐏𝐄𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐈𝐓𝐒 𝐖𝐀𝐘 𝐓𝐇𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐒 is warm upon his skin ; the light makes dark brows pinch together in the middle as he stirs. He can feel a lithe hand upon his bare skin, pulling him closer ; moving Yi-joon onto his back rather than his side ; a tired yet pleased hum leaving him as he feels his lovers head upon his chest. The days of Hyeon leaving — of not staying with him, were in the past now. They were free from their chains — their bindings, and now they could be together … and it was funny, how that was all thanks to Yi-Joon’s brother ; a man he was taught to hate with every fibre of his being since a young age. A man who had let them stay here in his house until they got back to their feet. Someone who Yi-joon was trying to rekindle a relationship with, albeit difficultly. He had him to thank …
“Mm.” Tiredly, Yi-joon responds, a dark eye cracking open slowly and peering through his bangs which fell into his face, leaning down to press a firm kiss to the top of the others head as his arm shifted, hand finding gentle purchase within blonde locks of hair. Yi-joon was not a gentle man most of the time — but in moments like this — moments that he had craved for years — he could be soft for a little while, couldn’t he? His eye closes as he turns onto his side facing Hyeon, both arms wrapping around him and pulling him closer as one hand cradled the back of his lovers head in a way that he always had wanted to. Lovingly. Intimately. If Hyeon wanted to stay with him a little while longer this way, who was he to deny that? Especially when he, too, wanted the same?
“ … Sure, Jagiya.” He could call him that now, couldn’t he? “Whatever you want. ”
