Jaemin wakes up to see Jeno's sleeping face just a few inches away from him. Furrowing his eyebrows, he blinks several times to at least clear his vision.

Just as he was about to sit up, he felt something heavy on him, preventing his initial plan.

Tilting his head down, he sees from under the shared covers, a pair of legs tangled up with his own.

Biting back a smile, the small movement from the other person makes him look back up just so he could see the highly predicted reaction.

And there it was.

First was the slow flutter of the younger boy's eyelashes when he blinks.

Then comes the small yawn that Jaemin would happily admit that he found it cute.

Oh and this is the big part.

"Wh– oh my God."

"Morning, sweetheart." Jaemin has the audacity to smirk at 8 am.

Jeno scrambles to sit up and lets out a breath he didn't even realize he held in for a moment, "I'm so sorry!" He shrieks as he untangles himself from Jaemin's body.

Jaemin doesn't hide the pout on his face, clearly and genuinely upset that Jeno had to pull away from him.

Shame, it was very comfortable.

"Why are you sorry?" He chuckles at the younger boy as he props himself up by resting his temple on his fist.

"I invaded your space, I shouldn't have done that. I understand if you're uncomfortable and want to press charges–"

Jeno stops himself from rambling when Jaemin suddenly cackles at him. Furrowing his eyebrows, he silently asks as to why he's being laughed at.

Calming down a little, Jaemin snorts and says, "sorry, darling. But you didn't do anything wrong, don't worry your pretty little head. I'm not mad."

About to protest for no reason, Jeno shuts his mouth when Jaemin gives him a look. "I will be upset if you keep beating yourself up for something harmless."

"I'm just–"

"Embarrassed?" Getting a small shy nod, Jaemin smiles in amusement.

"It's all okay, I was kind of hoping for a little cuddle session with you anyway." He flashes him a wink.

Jeno blushes and looks away, "how did that even happen?" He asks, most likely towards himself rather than Jaemin.

Oh yeah, Jeno placed a pillow between them last night when Jaemin almost full on back hugged him. Or could be spooning him.

Doesn't matter, what matters is that Jeno panicked and took an extra pillow to make it as a boundary between them.

A sad part for Jaemin honestly.

However, later on in the night, in the midst of Jeno's deep sleep, he had moved around on the bed til he was half-awake.

Unbeknownst to him, he removed the pillow beside him thinking it was getting annoying, not to mention making the area more cramped than it already was.

And Jaemin... Well... Jaemin was awake when that happened.

He had to pee for a moment, alright? He saw it and couldn't do anything about it... The last part was a lie.

Shrugging his shoulders at the raven haired boy, he pretends to be confused as well. "Beats me, doesn't matter though. It was nice having you near me."

"Shut up." Jeno mutters and attempts to cover his blushing cheeks by rubbing his palms on his face to wake himself up more.

"We should do it again."

"No."

"I say we should, so, come here baby bo– fuck!" Jaemin yelps and bites his tongue as he curls himself up into a ball.

Jeno had elbowed his crotch quite hard, "you know that's not good! My dick is already hard in the morning!"

"OH MY GOD STOP TALKING SO VULGARLY!" Jeno shrieks, face getting hotter than ever as he turns away.

Standing up, he quickly smoothens his clothes and steps out of the room. "I'm going to make breakfast."

"Wait! Let me help you!" Jaemin hastily gets out of bed despite the stinging feeling on his crotch, stumbling on his way as he catches up to Jeno down the stairs.

"We should wake them up." Jeno sighs as he checks the time. "It's already late."

"It's 9 am..." Jaemin comments, mouth full of pancakes.

They had already started eating breakfast before the others, Jaemin felt greedy and mischievous so he's getting more for himself.

"That's already late, I have stuff to do. Don't you?" Jeno raises a brow at the pink haired boy.

Jaemin ponders in thought before shrugging his shoulders, "I think I do have to go to the studio after lunch."

"See?"

"Okay, well, let me just finish these lovely breakfast you made. Malewife material am I right?" Jaemin snickers.

Jeno deadpans in reply, "it's pancakes."

"At least you didn't burn them or fucked up the mixing, unlike Mark." Jaemin says before grinning widely at him. "Take it as a compliment, darling."

Huffing, Jeno looks away and mutters. "Just hurry up so we can get out of here–"

"Are you busy?" Jaemin asks, cutting him off. Before Jeno could answer him, he quickly adds.

"Studying or being around books doesn't count. I know you guys don't have any tests coming up, Yangyang told me."

You're too predictable, Jeno.

Pursing his lips, Jeno didn't really have a backup answer. So Jaemin hums knowingly, "then come with me after this."

"I beg your pardon?" Jeno stares at him weirdly.

The tattoo artist only smiles, "it's nothing or nowhere dangerous, just come by to my place before I leave for work."

"Why?"

"Why not?"

"Jaemin." Jeno drawls out the pink haired boy's name as a warning.

"Okay, I just want to spend time with you." Jaemin says with a small laugh, "so? What do you say?"

"I don't know..." Oddly enough, Jeno was hesitant of his answer instead of being very sure.

What is happening to him?

"I promise, just stop by to my place and we can leave after lunch."

Jeno didn't have time to say anything as Jaemin takes his dishes to the sink and smirks mischievously at him.

"Anyways, let's go wake up Yangyang and Mark."

"I can't believe Donghyuck isn't even here yet, this is his house." Jeno mumbles as he follows behind Jaemin.

The latter snorts and surprises Jeno by reaching over to pinch his cheek affectionately, "he has a hangover, pretty boy. He'll be here later, for sure."

All Jeno could do was nod along before he was gently pulled by Jaemin's hand in his, following the latter to where Mark was still passed out on the couch.

Thoughts to share???

Also, what do you think of this weird and long progress?

I apologize for how long it is, I didn't even realize it's almost the 40th chapter until now.

Tbh, it was obviously messy and didn't have a clear plot/storyline, so I'm trying to make something out of my mistakes lmao.
