Work Text:
jimin awoke to the beaming sunlight coming from his windows. he blinked a few times, stretched out a bit. looked over to the opposite side of the bed. these moments were the best parts of jimin’s mornings, days, weeks, months. waking up and seeing the absolute love of his life sleeping peacefully next to him.
usually, he and jeongguk go to sleep cuddling tightly, but they always end up on opposite sides of the bed because jeongguk says he gets too hot in the night. jimin smiles softly and runs his hands through jeongguk’s hair and trails his fingers softly down the side of his face. he sees the slight drool falling out of his mouth and onto the pillow, and his favorite choco chip mole under his bottom lip, his fluffy and untamed hair, the tattoo on his shoulder peeking out from underneath the covers — jimin always feels his love for jeongguk up to maximum in these rare moments.
he looks to the clock on his nightstand and it reads 10:28 a.m. they don't have work today, so they decided to sleep in a bit. more often than not, they’re up at five or six in the morning. jeongguk should be getting up shortly. jimin looks down and admires him one last time before placing a kiss on his forehead, then his cheek, his nose, and finally, his lips that are in a pout from resting on his hand. jeongguk stirs then. his nose twitches.
he half opens his eyes and closes them again. he’s faking his sleep now. he always says he loves when jimin wakes him up like this.
jimin decides to play along like he always does and places more feather kisses on his face, his neck, the bridge of his nose, his temple.
“hey, gguk,” jimin whispers. he always feels so endeared by his boyfriend.
jeongguk finally smiles. “good morning, love.” he wraps his arms around jimin’s body and pulls him in close. he kisses the crown of jimin’s head.
“any plans for today?” jimin asks.
“no, baby. just want to stay in bed with you. we finally have the whole day to ourselves. you know i miss you all the time,” jeongguk replies as he rakes his fingers through jimin’s hair. they haven’t been able to stay like this for a while. when they first moved in together, they spent almost every waking moment together, but lately it feels like their time has been halted.
“i know. i miss you all the time too.” there’s a comfortable moment of silence. then, jimin softly gasps and cusps jeongguk’s face in his hands. “we should go to the convenience store and get lots of ramen, you know, the really spicy kind. oh, and snacks and maybe some soju and watch movies!” jimin suggests excitedly.
“okay, yeah, we can definitely do that. hyung?” jeongguk always looks at jimin with the most adoring look in his eyes, like he’s hung the moon in the sky. jimin says jeongguk’s eyes hold stars in them.
“yes?”
“i love you.”
jimin smiles. “i love you, too.”
