kiss?
Song. Key. and Melody. {Hiatus}
“Halapeoji” a voice cried softly. Key turned his face to the side and peeked from around his pillows. “Halmoni,” the voice continued. He slipped himself out of bed and rested his feet against the hardwood. “An-anyio.”
His feet dragged across the floor to the couch that XuanLu had insisted that she’d sleep on once again. “Xuanie~,” he cooed but her crying didn’t end. He sighed softly and took her in his arms. “LuLu, it’s just a dream,” he hushed. “You can wake up.”
She dug her face against his throat letting her tears slide down his neck. “I just...” she cried. “I can’t if it’s not real.”
He brushed her hair out of her face so lovingly that anyone would mistake them for a newly-wedded couple. “No one is making you do anything.” He tried his best to snake an arm underneath her and pull her upwards. She moved with him like a puppet teetering in his grasp. It was an exact reinactment of the night before, but this time he was much gentlier.
“I don’t want to,” she cried.
He helped her to his bed where he laid her down against his cotton sheets. She clung to him making it a difficult process. “I can’t,” she cried into a fistfull of his shirt.
“Shh- LuLu, it’s okay,” he smiled laying down beside her. “You’re fine.”
She dug her face into his chest and his arms winding around her as a form of comfort. Her breath became easy as he slowly pat her back. He pressed a finger to her forehead smoothing out the lines. “Such a beautiful girl making an ugly face,” he chuckled the skin softly. Her lips pouted into a soft “M” as she sighed.
Maybe it was because the moonlight hit her in such a lovely way, or perhaps it was because he was feeling connected to her, responsible for her...but he cupped her face in his hand and kissed the skin between his thumb and index finger. This was the only way he could allow himself to kiss her without her permission; it was his own skin. He separated himself from her with his hand while releasing his mixed emotions. He closed his eyes as his lips met skin. “Don’t worry,” he breathed through parted lips. “I won’t let anyone hurt you. Promise."
Bonus CHAPTER! *ahem* that's why it's so short. but it's pretty sweet...huh? eh? ehhhh~ no? ._. okay okay. I get it. I'll stop acting like a fool.
Hope you all are listening to "Sherlock" ~ Kinda loving the funky beat myself :)
