(almost) slipped my grasp
Lucid DreamDonghae wake up sobbing, his shaking waking up Hyukjae who quickly becomes alert at the sight of Donghae’s tears.
Forcing them to sit up he asks, “Hey, hey, what’s wrong? Why are you crying?”
“I saw my soulmate.”
“Oh.” Brushing away the tears tenderly, “Tell me about them.”
“It’s you, I saw you.”
Hyukjae is left frozen at Donghae’s words. Knocking their foreheads together, they’re close enough to breathe each other’s air. “You’re not lying to me, are you? You really saw me?”
Donghae nods, choking out a laugh when he sees Hyukjae’s eye dropping tears. “It was really us this entire time.”
Trembling, Hyukjae asks, “Are you relieved it’s me?”
“Of course!” Donghae replies without hesitation, "I've longed for this moment and didn't think I could hold onto you and my soulmate. But it turns out you're one and the same."
Donghae begins to smile, but then ends up frowning. “We’ve been together all this time, but why have I only seen you now?”
“Maybe it’s because we actually slept together,” Hyukjae winks at him before continuing, “All those times you slept in the courtyard, you slept alone. I was just there doing whatever.”
Smacking Hyukjae’s shoulder, he exclaims “You should have fell asleep sooner! We could have been together this entire time!”
“But we have,” Hyukjae points out, grabbing hold of Donghae’s hands. “It’s fine, we’ve always been together, but now we’ll always be right besid
