Being an idol dating another idol was never easy. Even when the two have a schedule set for when they would have time to be together, sometimes fate just has different plans for that day. And with the recent comeback for her boyfriend and her preparing for the concert, Naeun felt like she had barely seen the male, definitely not as much as she used to. It wasn’t the first time this had happened, so one could say they were used to it. But, even when they parted in the mornings for their respective schedules, the two would message each other with, “I miss you,” from the start.
And so, with the concert only a couple of days away, he did promise her he’d be free for some time before then, meaning they finally got to be together. However, Naeun had succumbed to the sleepiness that was taking over her and ended up curling up under the covers of their full sized bed. She hadn’t even notice him slip in beside her, let alone him enter the room. Her eyes blink open before she jumps lightly in his embrace, startled a bit as her eyebrows furrow at him. Her features soften soon after she hears his question, head nodding in a groggy manner as she latches her arms around his neck, face half buying itself into it. “….Mhm…..a lot….”
The first thing that came to his mind when he stepped inside the house was about how good it is to be home and how thankful he is to have a place he can truly call home without it ending up to become another place where he simply just sleeps there or dump his belongings. With Naeun occupying the place, Jinyoung always await the moment where he’d finally reach home because he know he will be able to lay down beside her after a long day and vice versa, but lately his schedules has been getting crazier than ever, so he offered an apologetic smile, climbing to the bed and bury his nose to the crook of her neck as a sigh escaped his lip.
“I’m sorry... for not being able to be here lately. Also for waking you up, I guess.”
He often told Naeun to say thank you instead of sorry (for any kind of circumstances), but the sentences came out from his mouth just like that along with the hard squeeze he gave her, feeling guilty because he was afraid she would feel like as if being placed to the side because of his workaholic nature coming back before bracing himself to look at her, a hint of melancholy lingers in his gaze as he stare at her eyes, fingers lightly caressing her feature. “I’m here now, though, later than I promised I would, but I really miss you. Sounds crazy because we’ve only been apart for less than a day, I know. But what can I do, right?”
