Something Short and Sweet

A Hopeless Place

Takuya didn’t wake up again until a guard brought him dinner that evening. As promised Yongseok was still sitting on the floor next to his bed. The guard looked slightly put off by the presence of the younger but Yongseok’s dinner was brought to him in Taluya’s room anyway.

“What is the stuff anyway” Takuya frowned poking their regular brown slop.

“Dunno” Yongseok shrugged “probably powder mixed with water.”

Takuya pulled a face eliciting a laugh out of Yongseok.

 

They could hear the others in their room’s. Shin scrapping his spoon against the tray, Sangmin making disgusting slurping noises as he ate and Seyoung muttering to himself. Yongseok didn’t eat much of his meal and Takuya found himself pursing his lips as he was washed with concern.

“You need to eat more, even it is just this crap.”

“It’ll just try and come up later” Yongseok muttered diligently avoiding eye contact. Takuya sighed and wrapped an arm, what he hopped was comfortingly, around the youngers shoulder.

“Did you maybe” Takuya started “want to try staying in here for the night.”

Yongseok looked up at him, a frown creasing his brows.

“You still have the clock hand, once they’re gone for the evening, you can come back.”

“Ok” Yongseok nodded “Yeah I’ll try.”

 

The guards who took their trays away ushered Yongseok back to his own room. The younger waited a few minutes after the guards left to quietly pick the lock to his room then Takuya’s.  Takuya shifted over of the small bed so there was room for Yongseok between him and the wall, he remembered Yongseok saying that sleeping with his back against the wall made him feel safer. The younger slipped into the space, immediately burrowing himself into Takuya’s chest. Takuya chuckled and wrapped his arms around Yongseok, holding him in place.


I know this is late, but when I was re-reading this chapter before publishing it I wasn't quiete sure if I really wanted to. In the end I obviously decided to, but it took a while. It's very short and it's purpose was to provide a but of a break between the talking about going back down to the basement and actually going back down to the basement. Hope you enjoyed that little cute thing :)

Chapter 5: I like how things are going right now, not too fast and not too slow! I have a question regarding the nature of their relationship: would it be platonic, romantic or ty? If the last one, who's going to be dominant and who's going to be submissive? Or would it change from time to time? Sorry for asking so much questions!
