The night was silent, and the room was filled with only a subtle, soft light. You lie on your side in bed, your heart beating out of rhythm as you realize he's right next to you.
You had expected to toss and turn, after all, you had never been this close, let alone in the same bed. However, the exhaustion of your body prevented you from rambling on, and the warmth of his scent made you want to be closer.
You turned to look at him, and he seemed to have fallen asleep. You secretly moved, and then secretly closer to him.
He suddenly opened his eyes, and you subconsciously closed your own, pretending you were asleep. He let out a low chuckle at your cute behavior and touched his finger to your nose, "Nervous?"
Your tightly closed eyelashes fluttered slightly, giving away your emotions.
"Really asleep?"His voice was teasing and tender.
Your cheeks burned, and you finally couldn't help but let out a soft 'hmm', pulling the blanket over your face.
"Good girl, sleep well."He pulled off the blanket that covered your face and put it over you properly. His hand also covered the lower belly, his palm penetrating with warmth as he gently rubbed it.
"Um, I'm fine..."You instinctively shrunk yourself, pulling your hands around his and whispering softly.
He didn't say anything, and your eyes opened, looking at the side of his face close at hand. He met your gaze, a gentle smile in his eyes, and you lowered your head in shyly. He removed his hand from the lower belly and moved closer toward you, his lips kissing your forehead.
"Sleep."His hand falling on your back, giving you a sense of security.
You relaxed in the warmth of his presence and slowly closed your eyes and drifted off to sleep.
----------------
The early morning sunlight poured into the room through the curtains, the warmth wrapped around you, half asleep you only felt extraordinarily at ease and didn't want to open your eyes.
"Dingdong-"
The sound of the doorbell broke the peace and you frowned slightly, rolling over and trying to ignore it.
"Ding-dong-ding-dong-"
The bell rang more sharply this time, followed by a shout from your friend, "Hey! Are you home? Open the door!"
Your eyes widen with a jerk and your whole body sat up, your hand grabbing at your messy hair with only one thought: it's over.
The person beside you reacted one step earlier than you did, and had already gotten up, lightly sweeping you a glance, his voice with the low hoarseness of the morning, "I'll go open the door."
Before you could stop him, he casually put on a jacket and headed for the door.
You froze in bed, your friend outside the door still urging, "What took you so long to open the door? You're not still asleep, are you?"
The next second, the door is opened.
There was an instant silence outside.
You put the blanket over your head not wanting to face it. This time, it's really over.
----------------
The friend outside the door obviously didn't expect it to be him opening the door, her voice stopped abruptly and the air froze instantly.
"...You?"Your friend's eyes widened as she stared at the man at the door, blinking to make sure she hadn't mistakenly seen him.
His expression was bland, his voice slightly hoarse, "She has period pain, and she's not awake yet."
Your friend's eyes darted over the collar of his shirt, which was a casually draped jacket that hung loosely over his shoulders, the familiar and loose T-Shirt he wore revealing a lean slice of his collarbone and... the messy hair.
"..." your friend is silent for a split second, then lowers her voice, "She, she...you guys?"
Inside the room, you're still nestled under the blanket, ears perked up for movement, and when you hear the words, your heart skipped a beat and your fingers unconsciously clenched the blanket.
There's silence outside for a few more seconds, and your friend seemed to digest something, taking a deep breath, "...never mind, I'll go in by myself."
He sidesteps out of the way, and your friend stepped through the door with a big stride, seeing you nestled in bed in the half-open door, and walked quickly in to the bedside, bending down to stare at you, "Hey, get up!"
You pretended not to hear.
Your friend's eyes sharp and the corners of her mouth turn up slightly, "Still not awake are you?"
Your heart tightened, your gut feeling was not good, and the next second...
"Oops, my belly hurts~" your friend purposely stretched her tone, pretending to be weak and holding her belly with a pain in face, "I was home alone last night, so poor, if only I had someone to accompany me..."
You immediately sat up from the blanket with a hint of panic on your face, "Don't talk nonsense!"
Your friend looked at you and narrowed her eyes, pretending to be thoughtful, "Oh? Why do you look like a guilty conscience?"
You were momentarily speechless, and your afterglow saw him standing aside, he seemed to be looking at you all with interest, the corner of his mouth curved up into a smile if anything.
You suddenly became even more flustered, and hastily lifted the blanket and got out of bed, saying hurriedly, "I'll go wash up!"After saying that, you dashed into the bathroom, the pain in your belly from last night had gotten better.
Your friend watched you leave, hands wrapped around her chest, turned her head to him standing aside and inquired in a low voice, "Tell me the truth, last night you guys..."
He looked at her with the same face as usual, and slightly opened his lips, "Uh-huh."
Friend: "..."
Uh what uh, she didn't even finish the question.
What did he mean by "Uh" just now? It's misleading!
You slapped your face with water, told yourself not to think too much, and composed yourself before walking out of the bathroom.
In the living room, your friend was sitting on the couch, arms folded across her chest, her eyes scrutinizing the man across from her.
Feeling that something was wrong with the atmosphere, you walked over to her with a smile, "What are you guys talking about?"
Your friend immediately turned her head and stared at you with narrowed eyes, "When did you guys start?"
You:"...It's hard to say."
Your friend raised her hand and pointed at him, "This guy, you let him sleep with you... no, I mean, sleep next to you."
"Nonsense! What sleeping with me..."You can't wait to dig a hole and hide in it.
"Wait...I know! Isn't he the abs guy you were chatting with online?"Your friend continued to look him up and down, suddenly showing a look of realization and an exaggerated tone of voice.
"Shhhh, don't say anything!"You immediately put your hand over your friend's mouth.
"Well...Didn't you say he was 'bad'? The voice is still exceptionally nice, and you're super in love with all of this!"Your friend struggled away, not giving you the slightest chance to defend yourself, and continued to throw in another jab.
"Hey, shut up!"Your ears flushed red as you were stared at by someone.
"Do you really like it?"He asked suddenly, a hint of low charm in his voice.
You didn't dare look at him and glared at your friend.
Your friend looked at you and pretended to sigh, "Ugh, really, you were so complimentary before, but now that the person is right in front of you, how come you've become so shy?"
Shouldn't you send this friend away?
"Since you're not feeling well, I'll find you out next time. Enjoy yourself."Your friend waved and walked off on her own.
Friend: Get on it when you're ready, my friend! Make him yours!
You let out a long breath as the door closed and he stood there looking at you, "Enjoy?"
You:"...A friend's talking nonsense."
He let out a low chuckle and approached you, reaching out to rub your head, "I'll go make you breakfast."
He told you to sit on the couch and relax, it wasn't long before he brought a bowl of warm porridge and gently placed it in front of you, "Eat."
You looked up at him, "How come you're good at everything?"
He smiled lightly and sat down next to you, his arm stretched out and swept you into his arms, his palm gently covered the belly of your body and slowly rubbed it, his low and warm voice in your ears, "Be good."
"Where was I naughty?"You leaned into his arms, feeling his warmth.
