*****
It would be a huge lie if Sooyoung didn’t find Jaejoong gorgeous and different from vampires on movies. Setting the thoughts of him being a vampire that would suck her blood any minute, Sooyoung and Jaejoong had gotten really close ever since she got in his house. Laughter echoed Jaejoong’s house when stories were shared about their two different worlds. Sooyoung chuckled by the thought that she would actually consider a vampire as one of her trustable friends. It may sound odd, but as they continue sharing stories about each other, Sooyoung found him very interesting and she could see herself befriending him and trusting him.
Lying down on his carpeted floor, Sooyoung took this chance to ask him a question she’s been longing to ask. “Joong, how old are you?” He walked towards her direction laying down beside her, “Twenty”. She turned her body to face him, “Including your vampire years?”
“You look older than that though”, she continued.
“Is that a compliment?” he laughed prompting himself with his elbows to face her. “Including vampire years, I’m twenty-six.”
“Oh, well my mistake. You look much younger than that”, Sooyoung laughed before staring back at the smooth ceiling. “What about you Soo?”
“I’m twenty-two”, she answered. The two stayed in that position for awhile before Sooyoung felt Jaejoong’s cold touch grab her hand. He studied her fingers, pulling and twisting each one and was busy playing with her fingers. She felt their hands intertwined, usually she attacks the guys that do such actions, but this time she just let it be. She liked his icy old touch. Sooyoung looked at him, as she continued to analyze him.
How can a vampire be so nice? Aren’t they supposed to be in loss of control and wild?
He glanced at her and just gave her a smile that somehow looked like a smirk at the same time. A smirk that literally made Sooyoung blush crimson. She quickly looked away, turning her head to the other side. “Do humans naturally turn red like that?”, his innocent masculine sexy voice asked. Still facing her back to him she answered, “Only when they get that feeling”.
“What feeling?”
“Uh...”, she managed to stutter and soon mentally cursed herself. She turned her body so she could face him and she almost lost her breath when she noticed his face was only inches away from hers. He looked innocently beautiful and a curious blank look was plastered on his face. She stuttered once again, “I-I’m sleepy. Where can I sleep?”
Jaejoong still didn’t get a proper reply on what that feeling is but decided to not push the tired looking Sooyoung. He led her to a guest room and settled her there. “If you need something, just tell me.”, he smiled covering her with a blanket. “Thanks”, she smiled back wrapping herself with the covers.
“Goodnight”, Sooyoung said before closing the gap of her eye lids.
She could still feel Jaejoong’s presence in the room and it’s not really letting her sleep knowing he is watching her every move. She could feel his intense gaze on her. Albeit awkward, she kind of liked the feel of being protected and watched. She tried her best to not twitch her nose or a finger. After a long time, she still couldn’t fall asleep and opened her eyes slowly. She gasped when she still found Jaejoong sitting beside her bed, watching her. He had a look of interest and it seemed like he was trying to fix things in his mind. He noticed Sooyoung waken and gave her a look, “You ain’t sleeping?”
“I can’t sleep with you watching me here Jae”
“I’ll sleep here then”
Sooyoung’s eyes widened, “What!?”. He walked closer to her bed, sitting at the edge of the bed. “Soo, you’re human. I need to protect you”.
“From what?”
“The Chos”
“Who?!”, Sooyoung asked as she got up from her bed. But before she could fully sit up, Jaejoong grabbed her shoulders pulling her down on the bed. “Just sleep”, he whispered as he fixed Sooyoung’s bangs. He stroked her hair for awhile anbd humming a song with it. He noticed her getting sleepier, so he went back returning to the seat opposite to her bed.
Slowly closing her eyes, she just let Jaejoong look at her for how long he pleases to. She giggled by the thought that Jaejoong wants to protect her from the so-called Chos.
But what she wasn’t sure was if he wants to protect her because of being human or because of being her.
