AN: Happy (very late) birthday to Ahana @moonsclover, my bestie and the more adorable person I know!! I hope you had a lovely birthday and I’m sorry that this came much later than I hoped. I hope you’ll like this fluffy Jungwon drabble! I wrote it because I want to let you know that throughout everything life has to offer, I will always be here to comfort you
You looked up blearily at the ceiling, eyes puffy and nearly closing, but not quite. You just couldn’t find a way to sleep. Not after the hardships of the day had passed and you would have to face them tomorrow. You feared sleep, for you’d soon wake up, but you dreaded staying up the night, since you’d still be forced to place your slow, dragging footsteps on the treadmill of life. So, you cried and, hoping that your pouring tears would run out soon.
Jungwon watched you from the frame of your bedroom door, your oi p body lying down on your shared bed. From far, he already knew your eyes were bloodshot and your cheeks were traced by the tears you shed since you had gotten back from school. You were always so hardworking, and he knew you had days where you felt burnt out and stressed. Jungwon remembered the first time you broke down, when you told him to leave you alone with your thoughts. Your boyfriend obeyed, only that he would never let a night of your cries go without you two talking about it when you were ready to.
But today, Jungwon was especially worried, you hadn’t stopped crying for the past 3 hours and didn’t eat dinner or drink water, either. He wondered whether it would be okay to come in your room, just this once, to comfort you with his presence.
And so, he did. He started by sitting on the velvet couch of your shared apartment, glazing at you to see how you’d react. At that moment, you turned over on your side, lethargic from your lack of energy. And yet, you shot him a small smile, inviting him to sit beside you on the bed.
“I’m sorry I came over, but are you ok with telling me what’s going on?”, your boyfriend asked.
You sniffled, shifting your position in order to him. “It’s okay, love. I’m okay. I’ll be over it by morning,”
Jungwon lay down next to you and looked lovingly at you, giving you his undivided attention. “You say the same thing every time you’ve cried yourself to sleep. Your eyes tell me otherwise.”
“I’ll tell you someday, honey. I promise you,” you told him. You felt your eyes close as the spell of slumber took over you.
Your boyfriend mirrored the slight smile you fell asleep with. “And I promise that I’ll be with you through every hurdle”
