Summary: It’s one of these days where everything goes like it always does. Just a bit better because you have each other.
Kibum didn’t know what woke him up, but the darkness and silence around told him that it happened way too early. They had a free day, but he still woke up too early, maybe because he was too used to it.
Jonghyun’s arm was draped around Kibum, heavy and possessive, like every night they spent together. He carefully removed it and shifted away.
After his eyes got accustomed to the darkness, they darted back to Jonghyun and his sleeping face. Kibum bent down and pressed a smile softly on Jonghyun’s cheek.
“Mhm…” It was only a murmur, but it caused Kibum to shudder and his smile deepened. These moments were rare and they both knew to treasure them.
With a sigh Kibum settled back into the warm spot next to Jonghyun and felt how his arm once again closed around him. He loved the possessiveness, although he would never admit it. He liked to appear independent and strong before everyone, but inside he still craved for reassurance and his boyfriend’s strong hold was one of them.
He drifted away again with the feeling of soft skin against his, and Jonghyun’s breath faintly stroking his neck following him into his dreams.
The room was already brightened by the morning sun when Jonghyun woke up.
He lazily reached over and ruffled Kibum’s hair with his nose, still half embraced by the warmth of his previous dream.
“Morning.” Kibum only stirred under his whisper and hid under the blanket, cuddling closer to Jonghyun.
After a moment of weighing coffee and warm toast against some more snuggling in bed, Jonghyun smiled and pulled Kibum closer.
His lips found Kibum’s under the blanket and they melted into a soft morning kiss.
“I hate it when you do that. You’re disgusting.” Kibum’s voice sounded lazy and content despite the words and he cracked one eye open to squint at Jonghyun.
“And you’re the kindest person on earth in the morning.” Jonghyun chuckled and pushed the blanket away. Maybe it wasn’t the best idea to kiss your boyfriend senseless when you’re trapped under a blanket together.
“I still hate it.” The muttering was drowned by another morning kiss, just as soft and slow as the first one.
“Make me toast and tea. I’m starving here.” Jonghyun just made a face at Kibum’s demand and kissed him some more.
After a while they had to part and the smile on their faces spoke more than any words.
“Maybe we should quit all this, so we can have more mornings like this one.”
Kibum laughed and smacked Jonghyun lightly. Then he pulled him down for another kiss, more heated this time.
Their little make out session went unnoticed by anyone, which was surprising, but they were thankful for it. It wasn't often that they had time for them alone without anyone interrupting.
Jonghyun almost fell back to sleep until a foot nudged him and Kibum’s voice, still heavy with different emotions, pulled him back to reality.
“Yah! I’m still hungry, Jjong.” He made a whiny face and nudged some more so that Jonghyun almost fell off the bed.
“Mhm…” Jonghyun wasn’t really in the mood to take orders, too content with his current position, but it was hard to resist a nagging Kibum. With a sigh, he rolled off the bed and landed with a soft ‘oomph’ on the floor. He expected to see a worried face, but it didn’t appear, so he made a face at the wall instead.
“Spoiled brat…” Minho who, like Jonghyun, had just stepped out of his room laughed at his muttering.
“That’s only because you do everything he says. Like a little puppy.” He looked almost pitifully at Jonghyun who wanted to get back at him with some nasty response, but Jinki interrupted them on the search for his socks.
“It’s way too early for a headache.” It had only been one hour since he woke up, but Jonghyun could already feel the familiar pain. Breakfast was finally served and finished and he hurried back to his shared room with Kibum, closing the door firmly.
“I brought you the-“ He stopped and stared at the naked person in front of him, obviously sleeping. “What the…” Jonghyun muttered and put the tray on the table next to the bed.
All the sheets were exactly in that way arranged that he could see everything except Kibum’s crotch, and his ass was barely lurking out. Jonghyun’s hand moved its way down the back and to the promising flesh under the white covers, but just when he reached the curve of the boy's ass, he felt a shiver under his hand from the body below him and a soft moan made its way to his ears.
With a smirk Jonghyun paused and moved closer, leaning now almost completely over the exposed body.
“So, you wanted to tease me? After insulting, slapping and nagging me. I’m truly disappointed and hurt, Kibum.”
Kibum heard a snort from Jonghyun and then the promising warmth on his back was gone. Sheets rustled and then the thump of feet on the ground was heard. With an almost panicked expression he turned around and crawled over the bed to get after Jonghyun. He didn’t notice that his feet got tangled up in the sheets and in the end he almost fell headfirst on the floor.
He was caught by Jonghyun’s arms and the soft laughter surrounded him with such a surprise that he could only stare at the chest in front of him, still blinking when Jonghyun settled them both back on the bed.
Kibum arranged himself on his boyfriend’s lap and raised an eyebrow in question.
“So you’re not mad at me?” Sometimes he got insecure, especially if he did something and couldn’t read Jonghyun’s reaction to it. Sometimes Kibum wondered if he went too far.
But, as always, everything was resolved by a warm kiss on his lips and Jonghyun’s promising words.
“No, I’m not mad. How could I? If you are lying like this in my bed and wait for me. Silly.” He chuckled and nuzzled his nose in Kibum’s hair, making him smile.
They remained like this for a few minutes until Kibum noticed the delicious smell surrounding them.
“Let’s eat.” With a cheerful tone he leaned over Jonghyun and grabbed a piece of toast. He didn’t notice the shiver going through the other.
“Um, Kibum?” The little teasing beforehand didn’t leave Jonghyun cold and he could feel still the warmth inside him waiting to come back. So when Kibum leaned over him and pressed his body, especially the lower part, against him the heat flickered up inside.
“Yeah?” Kibum’s face was innocent and Jonghyun thought for a moment that he was teasing again, but after some staring and exchanging confused and searching gazes he decided his boyfriend really didn’t know what he meant.
“Could you please put something on?” Kibum stared at him and he had to bite his lip to prevent himself from kissing the adorable clueless face Kibum was making before he realized what he meant.
“Ohh…” With a lascivious grin Kibum sneaked one hand under the blanket and earned a surprised moan from his boyfriend.
“Mhm.. Could it be that my teasing…?” Jonghyun couldn’t even answer. His sight began to blur when Kibum started to stroke his length.
After the second long impromptu make out session, and after the toast and coffee went cold and forgotten, Jonghyun was completely exhausted but strangely more awake than before. Kibum lay down next to him, eyes closed but still awake, his back facing him.
Jonghyun’s eyes travelled across the sharp shoulder blades, the muscles barely visible and down to the curve of his waist.
“Kibum-ah?”
Kibum stirred a bit and turned around to look with sleepy eyes at his boyfriend.
“Mhm?” A smile greeted him and Jonghyun came closer until his face blurred in Kibum’s sight.
“I love you.” A shiver ran through Kibum’s body, leaving him speechless and fuzzy inside.
Jonghyun waited a moment, then his lips grazed Kibum’s just enough to make them both feel the warmth spreading through their bodies. They paused and Kibum moved away so he could respond to Jonghyun’s gaze without going cross-eyed.
“I love you, too, big head.” He chuckled and captured Jonghyun’s lips in another kiss, slow and sensual.
Their kisses were languid and soft, portraying their feelings for each other.
Eventually they had to get up and dress for the day. They locked the bathroom door and took their time to shower while scrubbing each other’s back and playing around with the toothpaste.
“I will shave you!” Kibum stared in horror at Jonghyun when he made that offer and he tried his best to avoid the razor.
“No! Definitely no! I don’t want to look like you.”
This time Jonghyun looked truly hurt and he paused to pout, looking from Kibum to the shaver and back to him.
“What? Why? I’m a grown up man who can shave himself very well.”
Kibum had to laugh at this, forgetting for a moment the danger he was in.
“No, you can’t. I know about all the little cuts the make up noonas have to cover up almost every other day. That razor is a dangerous weapon in your hands and I won’t let you touch my skin with it.”
Jonghyun stared at him in disbelief and just when he looked like he was going to try again, Kibum already has taken advantage of his momentary confusion and stole the shaver out of his hand. Jonghyun still stared at him, now slightly irritated and not amused at all while Kibum tried his best to avoid his gazes and began to shave himself. They ended up leaving the room in complete silence and went separate ways afterwards.
Most fights never really lasted long though - at least not usually.
When they got in the van, Jonghyun went first and instead of following him directly Kibum pushed Taemin first, so that he sat between them. The whole way they were just staring out of their windows.
“Are we going to eat first?” Of course Onew would ask such a question of their manager and automatically Kibum’s eyes went to Jonghyun to exchange one of their usual looks about their leader. Only this time Jonghyun was too busy fiddling with his iPod and when he was finished he continued to stare out the window. Kibum sighed and turned back to his own window.
“Is everything okay, hyung?” Taemin looked up at him with a worried look, so that Kibum forced a smile on his face. He patted his knee, assuring him that everything was perfectly fine. Jonghyun snorted when he said but Kibum just chose to ignore it.
The mood on the way to their dance practice was tense, although Onew and Taemin tried to cheer it up. However during the actual practice nothing happened since everyone was too focused on their dancing.
“Okay, let’s end it here for today.” Everyone breathed again and Jonghyun walked off to a corner to fix his iPod.
In the end he just frowned and stared at the device in his hands, not knowing what to do. Usually he would ask Kibum, who knew more about technology than he wanted to admit, but he didn’t want to talk with him yet. He was still mad about the incident that happened beforehand at home. Out of habit he still looked around the room to find his friend, but he could only see Minho and Taemin in one corner hunched up over a Nintendo DS or Jinki talking with their manager
With a sigh he leaned back against the mirror and closed his eyes, slowly letting the exhaustion take over him.
“Hey, dumbass.” A foot nudged his side and a smile appeared on his face when he recognized the voice.
“Want something to drink?” Kibum let a water bottle fall into Jonghyun’s lap and slumped down next to him. Jonghyun stared at the bottle in his hands and had to grin when he noticed that it was already half empty. But he bit back the comment he had on his tongue and nodded in Kibum’s direction.
“Thanks.”
They sat in silence for a moment until Kibum noticed the abandoned iPod.
“Frozen again?”
Kibum’s question made Jonghyun shrug and he handed the iPod over. And suddenly they were talking again, like nothing ever happened between them.
On the way to the restaurant they were sharing the earphones of Kibum’s iPod while Jonghyun was tapping his fingers slightly to the beat on Kibum’s thigh.
It was at the dessert that Jonghyun smeared ice cream all over his face and nobody knew how that was even possible, but it happened.
“God, Jonghyun hyung, you are such a kid.” Kibum looked at Jonghyun’s puppy face for a moment, completely serious before he broke into laughter.
“Seriously, can’t you take care of yourself?” This time it was only an affectionate murmur while Kibum began to wipe the ice cream off his face with a napkin.
“Thank you.” Jonghyun smiled one of his genuine smiles and still looked almost embarrassed. Kibum paused and laid his free hand on Jonghyun’s cheek. He came so close that Jonghyun could feel his breath on his lips and see himself in his eyes.
“Don’t…” It was only a whisper but the look in Jonghyun’s eyes made Kibum stop and he drew back, blushing only slightly. Jonghyun immediately regretted it, but they were in public and couldn’t risk this.
Minho shot them a warning look even though they already went back to their food and didn’t even look at each other anymore.
Later when they were going back to the van Jonghyun took Kibum’s hand and pulled him behind a huge transporter in the parking lot.
They kissed fast and with too much tongue. Kibum almost groaned into the darkness around them but Jonghyun drowned it with another kiss. It was messed up and not romantic but they couldn’t have more, not now at least.
When a voice called out for them only a few moments later they were both out of breath and had red cheeks and lips. They didn’t go back immediately but stayed another minute, only looking at each other and trying to calm down. Jonghyun let his finger dance over Kibum’s cheek, pulled him close once again and pressed a smile, with one last kiss, on his lips.
Nobody said anything when they returned, still being a mess inside out and with a sparkle in their eyes.
They still held hands and Kibum fell asleep on Jonghyun’s shoulder the moment they drove off. His hair tickled Jonghyun, but he didn’t move an inch, only listening to the music and feeling his breathing close to his neck.
It wasn’t much, but for this moment it was all they could have and maybe it was enough.
They had a recording that evening and they only went home to take a quick shower and change clothes.
The script wasn’t difficult, the usual questions and jokes. Jonghyun and Kibum did their fanservice and sometimes they snuck a knowing glance at each other.
At last they had to record in pairs. Jonghyun and Kibum were last so they snuck off to an empty room near their dressing room.
“You look tired. Come here.” Jonghyun opened his arms and ruffled his friend’s hair when he snuggled up against him.
“Everything okay?” The worried tone in his voice caused Kibum to look up and he smiled reassuringly, pecking him softly on the lips.
“Of course. I’m just a bit exhausted.”
Jonghyun frowned and took his face in both hands, looking at him more closely.
“But we only had dance practice and you’re usually not so easily exhausted. You’re not going to get sick, are you?” He sounded even more worried by now and leaned his forehead against Kibum’s.
“Everything is fine, Jjong. Don’t worry about me. Come on, kiss me.” The soft smile on his face made Jonghyun feel better and he granted his wish with everything he had.
When Jonghyun noticed that Kibum was close to falling asleep, he pulled him down to the ground, so that he sat on his lap while Jonghyun leaned against the wall.
“Sleep a bit. I’ll wake you in time.” Kibum wanted to protest but the little, soft kisses Jonghyun spread over his skin like butterflies made him melt and he snuggled closer into the embrace, slowly falling into dreamland.
Jonghyun spent the time listening to Kibum’s heartbeat and breath. His fingers never left his skin and sometimes he planted a kiss on Kibum’s cheek or nuzzled his nose into his hair when he felt like it.
He woke him just in time like he said and they shared a last open mouthed kiss before they returned to the recording studio. This time they didn’t even notice they held hands until one of the noonas pointed it out.
It was rather late when they got back to their dorm and everyone was tired, but Kibum seemed like he was ready to pass out any second.
Jonghyun almost dragged him along to their bedroom. The members left them alone and went to their own rooms and beds, too exhausted to be bothered by anything.
“Hey, I’ll take your clothes off now, okay?” Kibum only nodded, barely registering the words.
Soon he was dressed in his pyjamas and curled under the blanket on Jonghyun’s bed.
He was already asleep when Jonghyun came back from the bathroom and his expression softened when he looked at his boyfriend.
Being careful not to wake him Jonghyun slid under the covers and pressed a soft kiss on Kibum’s forehead. Kibum stirred and draped himself over Jonghyun, cuddling close to him and making cute noises. Jonghyun smiled all in love and draped the blankets around them before he turned off the light.

Soon he was dressed in his pyjamas and curled under the blanket on Jonghyun’s bed.
He was already asleep when Jonghyun came back from the bathroom and his expression softened when he looked at his boyfriend.
Being careful not to wake him Jonghyun slid under the covers and pressed a soft kiss on Kibum’s forehead. Kibum stirred and draped himself over Jonghyun, cuddling close to him and making cute noises. Jonghyun smiled all in love and draped the blankets around them before he turned off the light.
