Chapter 2: Of a Cute Cuddly Bear and Naughty Elephant
beta read by:
borntobeacassie It had been more than a week since Yunho came into his life. Ever since he met the disaster of his life, nothing’s getting better; it's only getting worse (or maybe not).
Once his spotless home was full of garbage, food wrappers and dirty dishes (which he wondered how Yunho could love and eat those junk foods); their unmade bed (yes their! They share one bed since there was no guest room or any alternatives acc. to Jaejoong which he secretly like) since Yunho woke up later than him and doesn’t bother to tidy it up. Dirty laundry which should be in laundry basket, or random clothes and things were lying here and there; once he found Yunho’s bear printed boxer briefs and shorts spread on his couch making his eye sore (despite the boxers were cute which he doesn’t want to admit).
Once the neatly arranged every item in the bathroom such as shampoos, shower gels, shaving cream, toothpaste and folded towels were not in place anymore. His condo doesn’t looks like a high tech, luxurious and sophisticate apartment anymore but a house which just survived a tsunami disaster.
Those were everyday situations of his household, but he couldn’t say anything because if he upset the boy his mother might kill him. His sour mood was increasing day by day. He felt like a time bomb ticking every second, which could explode anytime. But the boy? That Jung Yunho was always happy, smiling, laughing, giggling and literally bouncing everywhere.
However as the time passed In spite of all the horrible feelings he brought upon, the said boy also evoked something else which he couldn’t put a name on. Every time he saw the boy laughing and smiling brightly he found himself smiling along. When he caught the younger embarrassed over something which usually happened all the time like when he made a mess (oh yeah, It seems Yunho knew about his turmoil but couldn’t help himself. he was a natural messy haha) his cheeks would spread with a light blush wearing a sheepish smile, he felt like cooing on how adorable he looked in between his anger. That’s plain weird right?
When Yunho was angry over something they argued and he furrowed his brow together and narrowed his almond eyes, he just laughed at his facial expression and made him angrier just to see that furious kitten' adorable looks despite himself being angry.
Or when Yunho was sad, missing his parents he just hugged him tightly to comfort the boy and brought a grateful smile on that beautiful cupid bow even though he just wanted to yell over the fact that its been only one week he haven’t seen them.
It’s not all, there were many more things which he found himself doing with the boy reluctantly or readily he would never dream of doing with anyone much less the boy.
He was confused over his own behavior.
And most of the night when they slept, Yunho who always liked to cuddle would snuggle up to his side. Which he also responded to reluctantly by wrapping his arm around and pulling the other closer.
Or When he nagged over something to do together with him like watching a movie, the younger just pouted ferociously jutting his lower lips making his already plump lips plumper, making him want to just kiss that pouty mouth senseless. But since he couldn’t, he just agreed with the other’s whim.
Like right now, he was forced to sit beside the ever giggling teen so that the younger can lean and cuddle with him on his couch watching some boring (acc. to him by the way) sitcom after having their delicious dinner cooked by Jaejoong with the help of Yunho. Which brought more work than actual help. The boy nuzzled more to his side, trying to get comfortable. Which forced him to relax, turn his front slightly towards Yunho and pull the boy closer by his waist so that the younger’s head can rest on his shoulder. When they were comfortable with their new positions, he took a sniff on younger’s hair relaxing with the sweet smell of shampoo earning a happy sigh.
“Jaejoongie hyung?” Yunho broke the silence after a few seconds.
“Hum?” he just hummed without really paying attention. More content with the current position he was in for some reason.
“Do you have a girlfriend?” well, that brought his full attention.
“No.” was his short reply.
“Or Boyfriend?” another query from the curious being beside him.
“Why do you want to know?” he answered back with another question of his own.
“Well I have been here for more than a week but I never saw you going out, having fun like a date except work or any hint of having someone special”, Yunho spoke softly, fearing he might offended the elder. Or more; hurt the other’s feelings.
“I don’t need a girlfriend to have fun and enjoy my life. Girlfriends are annoying, they only know how to irritate you, and they always want and expect something from you. Simply they just know how to ruin your life. How do I know this? I have seen enough of that. I don’t need a woman. My life is perfect as it is and I am happy”. He just ranted and further asked, “What about you? Do you have someone special?” He didn’t specify the gender.
“Yes. I have” was a sleepy whisper followed by a cute yawn. And Yunho got up and swayed a bit, unable to balance due to sleepiness. But Jaejoong was fast enough to hold the younger in place by his waist. And for some reason he was pissed off by the other’s last response, which made him tighten his hold unconsciously.
Then he led the boy to his (their) bedroom, turning off the lights on the way. Yunho lied down comfortably on the bed soft linen, caressing his tired body. Jaejoong followed lying down next to the boy, pulling up the comforter. The boy immediately snuggled closer and wished him a good night sleep. Yunho immediately fell asleep after that. But Jaejoong was nowhere near sleepy, pondering over Yunho’s earlier confession of having someone special. And feeling irritated with himself, why it even bothered him so much.
‘Yunho-ah what are you doing to me? You evoked so many strange emotions. You know I hate uncertainty and you are the most unpredictable person I ever met. But I can’t seem to dislike you even though I have every reason to hate you’. Kim Jaejoong sighed and pulled Yunho closer. Hoping to calm his uneasy nerves and get some much needed sleep only to alarm over his heightened senses. Seems like the boy was happy with the closeness; he snuggled even closer and hugged the elder with his hands and limbs which happen to placed the said leg over a certain asleep but naughty elephant awakening it. Kim Jaejoong’s wide awake eyes look up at his bedrooms' ceiling, took some deep breath and closed his eyes again with an exasperated sigh. He started counting sheeps (or cute cuddly bears) in his mind.
It seems like a certain someone was going to have a long night…..
