Chapter Text
On an off day after a whole busy week, all Heeseung wanted to do was sleep till noon, camp for his favorite snacks online, play some video games and then binge-watch some movies on Netflix.
so simple! it would obviously happen, right?
no. not when you have a very clingy Park Sunghoon who's attached to you throughout the day.
Yes. The same cold dorky ice prince Park Sunghoon who likes to pretend he doesn't prefer skinship and is NOT AT ALL clingy has been hugging him like a koala for the whole day.
It started the night before. After having their favorite take-out food, all of the members were ready to freshen up and sleep. The maknae line went into their rooms , sunki discussing which horror movie they should watch since they had an off day tomorrow while jungwon was asking them to choose the least scary one. Jake and Jay were already heading to their rooms bickering abt how they need to clean their room tomorrow. leaving only heeseung who was still eating his food while scrolling his phone and sunghoon who was just sitting there zoning out.
heeseung realized the presence of one more person beside him so he looked at sunghoon.
"Sunghoonie ? hoon ?" he called. and when he didn't get a reply, he waved at him. "hello ? earth to hoonie ? you there?" which brought sunghoon back into his senses.
"are you okay ?" he asked with a face full of concern
"yes hyung I am fine. i was just zoning out" sunghoon said with an embarrassed chuckle.
"do you wanna talk about it ?" heeseung stood up and walked towards sunghoon. Sunghoon flinched a bit when heeseung brought his hand to his forehead and softly rubbed on it with his fingers.
he grasped the older's hands and still holding onto it stood up to his feet.
"Hyung can I sleep with you tonight ?" To say Heeseung was shocked by the sudden question would be an understatement. He was left bewildered. It was not that they had never slept together but since hee had gotten his own room, hoon had barely approached him into his room. so him being surprised would be common.
"it's okay if you don't want me to tho. I won't disturb you. I'm sorry hyung-" Sunghoon almost separated their hands that were linked but heeseung pulled him back before he could walk back.
"come on. but first, let's brush and wash up! " Heeseung pulled them both towards their washroom. They let go of their hands despite feeling a bit empty because of loss of contact and started freshening up together. they had already taken shower so it wasn't much of a hassle.
They both went to Heeseung's room and heeseung locked the door. He was drying up his face with a towel when hoon went and sat on the edge of the bed pointing at his wet face.
"What?" Heeseung asked with a teasing face.
"dry my face too" hoon made a pouty face and whined.
"argh u r such a big baby hoonie" he said coming forward and roughly rubbing hoon's cheek.
"ouch ! hyung gentle !" hoon groaned in pain grabbing heeseung's hands on the towel and looking straight into hee's eyes.
they stared at each other for what felt like hours before heeseung's phone ringed and they both got startled. both of their cheeks got painted with a tint of red after they looked away from each other.
heeseung handed the towel to hoon in haste and walked towards his phone in an attempt to hide his blush and mentally cursed himself.
he picked up the phone and for the first time, he is thankful for a wrong number call. he almost exposed himself to his crush.
he put down his phone on the table and seeing hoon was down ith drying his face, he took the towel and hung it on a hook.
he walked towards the bed looking everywhere else but sunghoon's eyes and started arranging the pillows, "so do you wanna sleep or-"
"let's sleep hyungie. I am really tired." hoon said yawning and walking towards the right side of the bed since he knew heeseung liked sleeping on the left.
they both got into the covers and gosh it couldn't get any more awkward. they both were laying straight with no movements and staring straight onto the ceiling. Sunghoon didn't know how this tension had grown between them and honestly, he hated it. He wanted to cuddle with heeseung, wanted his heeseungie hyung to hug him and pet his hair, he wanted to sleep in his arms. so he asked what he wanted.
"hyung can you hug me ?"
Did heeseung just hear it right? did sunghoon just ask him to hug ? or are his ears ringing? is it really happening?
"huh ? " he asked to be sure.
"I asked can you hug me? I really wanna cuddle with you"
now heeseung's poor tiny heart was doing somersaults. how is he supposed to take this ? his crush of 4 years asking him to hug him to sleep all of a sudden?
But he tried to control himself, KEYWORD: TRIED and faced sunghoon who was already looking at me. Both of them scooted closer and sunghoon nuzzled into his chest making them both smile and blush.
Heeseung was just hoping the younger wasn't hearing his heart that was literally beating as if it would jump out of his heart any moment. He was already about to combust but seems like park damn sunghoon was not satisfied cause now he asked for something more.
"hyung, can you pet my hair? I fall asleep a lot faster when you do that."
no. I cannot. my heart can't take it. I might just burst. That's what heeseung wanted to say. but did he ? no.
Instead, he started running his fingers through the younger's silver locks and asked, "Is this okay hoonie ?"
and when he got the reply, "it's the best" he couldn't help his smile reach his eyes. little did he know the younger was grinning even wider against his chest.
