rawthorne! <3 Lyrics in Synopsis from Everything We Had by The Academy Is..., my inspiration xD
Changmin wakes up and thinks he can’t breathe, the panic-catch of suffocation taking over before he remembers; he’s home - he’s back home. There’s a hand tangled in his hair and Jaejoong’s singing soft-sweet lullabies. Yoochun’s turning and grumbling something about noise and sleep and the weight of the world isn’t easy on Sunday until Jaejoong pinches him - gives Changmin a quiet smile.
Changmin doesn’t remember sneaking into their room.
The safety latch came off a week into their time in Japan, when the loneliness is thick and takes a hold in their tongues and legs and souls, makes them drag heavy steps and has Changmin on the balcony wondering how much more he can take.
It starts with Jaejoong stealing comfort kisses from Yunho, who gives them out for free (but just for Jaejoong, just this once, just when no one will know.) Yoochun dives in with a rush of broken-heart-hope, and Junsu stumbles over the three of them sprawled on the living floor - drunk on their promises.
You’re insane, he says, but Junsu’s drunk too - the four of them are the only alcohol he can stomach; he starts taking shots in the form of stolen kisses; he’s feeling heady after the first sip. Together they pull Changmin back from the balcony and the shadows and the sudden doubt, tangle his hands in their own and someone whispers ‘five, five, five, one.’
Changmin doesn’t remember sneaking into their room; but Yunho tangles a leg around his ankle and Junsu’s helping Jaejoong pinch Yoochun, and Changmin asks, how can we all fit in here?
It doesn’t matter, Jaejoong says, because we do.
