Jaemin stares at his boyfriend and smiles fondly. The older notices and smiles back at him.

"You're so handsome, Jeno."

It was so sudden that Jeno can't help but to blush. "Ah, Jaemin-ah!"

The younger giggles and pokes his boyfriend's nose gently. "Oh, is Lee Jeno blushing? How cute!"

"Shut up! You're cuter." The older laughs and pinches Jaemin's cheeks.

"Ouch!" The latter pouts and puts his head on Jeno's shoulder. "I miss you, Jen."

"I miss you, too, Nana."

Jaemin sighs and looks up at his boyfriend. "Being with you in person is so much different than just hearing your voice and seeing your face through my phone. I like the first one more."

"I feel the same way."

"Please don't fall out of love. I'm afraid that someday you'll leave me, too." Jaemin's eyes begin to water, "I don't want us to end up like my parents." he whispers.

Jeno shakes his head, "Of course not. I won't leave you, I promise. I will always love you." He kisses him on the forehead.

"Everything went fast. But still, I don't care." Jaemin shakes his head, "I don't care what would happen to us in the future. But I'm holding onto your promise, Jeno, don't ever break it. Don't ever hurt me."

Jeno nods and kisses him again. "You can trust me, Nana."

"I love you."

"I love you, too."

They just had their dinner and they're currently in Jaemin's room, precisely on his bed, with his laptop in front of them.

"Are you sure you're staying to watch a movie with me?" Jaemin asks and Jeno just nods. "But don't you have to go home now because we still have school tomorrow, you know?"

Jeno chuckles, "Yes, Nana, I'm staying for a while. I know we have school tomorrow but I miss you, and I already told my mom I'm coming home so late."

Jaemin sighs, "Okay. I'm just worried you'll be late tomorrow."

"That's fine." Jeno ruffles his hair. "Come on now, play the movie."

"Alright!"

Jaemin presses the play and the movie immediately starts. He rests his head on the older's shoulder and Jeno wraps his arm around the younger's shoulder.

Being with Jeno like this is enough for him for now. He makes him safe and the atmosphere around them is relaxing and not awkward. He wants to stay in this state for a long time.

"Love, are you watching?" Jeno suddenly speaks. It didn't startle him since it's low and soft.

"Yes, love." No, he isn't, actually. He's just staring at the screen and not really understanding what's going on in the movie. He hears the audio but it goes out of his ears immediately.

Jeno notices that he's not really watching, so he pauses the movie, and Jaemin reacts by looking up at him.

"Why did you pause it?"

"Do you still wanna watch or do you wanna sleep now?"

"No, I want to see you." Jaemin pouts, "Play the movie again. I'll seriously watch now, I swear."

"Alright, love. Just tell me if you're feeling sleepy already, okay?"

"Okay, okay."

×××

It's almost at the end of the movie and Jaemin is already feeling sleepy. He's trying his best to open his eyes wide to keep them from closing.

But the urge to yawn is so strong that it betrays him and yawns so loud for Jeno to hear. The latter only chuckles.

"You're already sleepy. Let's get you to bed, love." Jeno tells him but he shakes his head.

Jaemin pouts, "No! If I sleep now, you would have to leave."

"Well, as you said, we have school tomorrow." Jeno smiles and pushes his boyfriend's head off his shoulder gently. "But don't worry, we'll see each other again on Saturday. Right?"

"Can you stay for another while until I fall asleep?"

"Sure, love." Jeno pauses the movie and exits the entire window. "You lay down now."

Jaemin lays down and watches his boyfriend places his laptop gently on the foot of the bed. He smiles when Jeno finally lays down beside him.

He turns to him and uses his biceps as a pillow, and of course, Jeno doesn't mind.

"Good night, Nana. Sweet dreams!"

"Good night, Jen." Jaemin replies and finally closes his eyes.

Jeno smiles and kisses his forehead, hugging his boyfriend's thin waist.
