“Why are you looking at me like that?” You ask, after a few seconds.
You and Yoongi have been lying on his bed for hours, after a long day of classes at university. He napped a little bit, while you stayed awake, thinking about life and how you loved the man next to you, the way his hair gets messed up everytime he lays down, his lazy and small eyes, his chest and belly, his hand around your waist, his moans when you have sex, the way he says your name and whispers goodnight before you sleep.
Yoongi takes a while to answer. He smiles, small at first, but soon enough his gummy smile appears, brightening every single cell of yours. He looks sleepy, like a small cat, and he has dark circles under his eyes - probably because he is tired from the last week of classes and exams. But, even so, he still looks just… perfect, like you always knew he was.
“It’s nothing,” he answers quietly, almost shy, but his smile gets wider and wider with every second. “I just… I love you”.
“What’s that, so suddenly?” You ask, even though you loved to hear that. Even though your heart is beating faster, and there’s this sensation on your chest like your whole body is going to explode.
“Can’t I say I love you?” It’s all he answers. You know Yoongi is always like this - he always answers questions with questions. And you wanna say that this is not a real answer, but you know he is only going to laugh, and call you silly, like he always does. Like you love when he does.
“You can,” you breath deeply, closing your eyes. “I love when you say that”.
“Is that so?”
So, you stay quiet for a moment. The only thing you can hear is Yoongi breathing getting mixed with yours, while you slowly feel his lips on your forehead, leaving you a chaste kiss.
“I love you”, he says again, kissing the tip of your nose, the both sides of your cheeks, your neck and, at the end, your lips. But it’s too fast for you to kiss him back. Even if you want to feel his lips again and kiss him properly, he is already moving away. You want to complain - you really do, but it’s impossible to say anything when you open your eyes and Yoongi is just smiling besides you, and repeating, over and over again: “I love you, I love you, I love you”.
“I love you too,” you whisper, because suddenly you just feel like you can’t talk. You lost your words and air at the sight of Yoongi and his perfection, and his hair, smile, nose, face, neck, his body, his personality and everything Yoongi is.
“To the moon and back?” He asks and laughs, nudging his nose on your neck. This makes you laugh.
“To the moon and back.”
You don’t know exactly when both of you fell asleep. You just did, wrapped on each other, even if it was too hot to be that close to another human. It didn’t really matter, not for Yoongi, not for you. On that lazy day, while the moon greeted the sky and the sun went to sleep, you were just too happy to be right next to Yoongi to complain about anything.
Right next to the man you love more than everything.
To the moon and back.
