Work Text:
It's nearly midnight when you finally can leave the studio after filming a video where the boys play games. They are all very tired and Jeonin is already half asleep.
"Let's get you home", you say after you talked to your boss, waving them towards you. You don't get any reaction but that okay. It was a long day for them and all you want is to just get them home.
You grab your backpack and start walking, knowing they will follow. Slowly but they are following. You at the front and Chan at the back. Before you finally look forward and walk them to the cars, Chan catches your glance and smiles at you. Tired but he is still smiling.
Faster than you think you all stand in front of the cars but there is a problem. Just one drivers is waiting for you.
"What happened?", you ask and cross your arms in front of you.
"His wife called. Something about their children." You let out a loud sigh and nod. That's a good reason to go. Again a sigh left your lips.
"What's the matter?", Chans asks and walks towards you.
"Nothing, get in the cars." For a second he looks at you and you already believe he is going to talk back but then he just nods.
"I will drive the other care. Its been a while since I drove the last time but I think I gonna handle it." You say towards the other driver.
Slowly you walk towards the drivers door and as you open it you see that four of the boys are already sitting inside. You let go of you backpack and put it onto the front seat passenger seat. You let out a sigh, those sighs are getting to much this evening, you think.
"Are you driving us?" It's Chans voice and you look back seeing Chan, Felix, Minho and Changbin staring at you.
"Yes, your driver had to go home. Something happened with on of his children. So I'm gonna drive you."
"We all gonna die", Minho mutters while making a funny face. You try to hit him on the knee but you miss and make everyone laugh.
"I will not kill us. I would get damned by stay so no I will not get us all killed."
You start the car and drive out of the parking space.
While driving you listen to the boys that, out of nowhere, got a bit of new energy. Even though you are very focused on the street you still laugh about Changbin jokes.
Soon you stop in front of the house where their dorm is. You let them out and follow the other driver to the parking spaces for the cars.
"Thanks for waiting so long. I hope you come home safe. Until tomorrow." You say goodbye and then walk towards the dorm. As quiet as you can you open the door and let yourself inside. You are hit with low chattering. They must still sit in the living room. And that's really where you find them.
They look quite surprised seeing you.
"What are you still doing here?", Seungmin asks with confusion in his eyes.
"To be honest I don't really know. But I didn't want to go home now", you explain. "I could cook something quick. I guess you are all hungry?" You smile at them.
"You really don't have too", Hyunjin says, standing up and walking towards you.
You start to smile at him.
"It's alright. Go shower and get ready for bed. I gonna prepare dinner."
Without another word you go into the kitchen and start making dinner. You hear that Hyunjin is following you.
"Can I help you with something?", he asks.
"You could set the table and then decide what side dishes we want today." As he nods you concentrate on making dinner again.
Half an hour later dinner is ready.
"Dinner is ready", you shout. "Thanks for helping." Tiredly Jinnie smiles at you, pads you on the shoulder and sits down. The rest of the boys come and sit down as well. Except of Chan.
"Where is Chan?", you ask, looking at everyone.
"In the studio. He wanted to check something." You let out a sigh. Someday he will overwork himself.
You take a bowl, put some of your food in it and start to walk towards the studio.
"You can eat. I will go to him. Also good night boys."
"Thanks for making dinner. Come home safe later", Jeongin answers, giving you a little smile. You nod and then walk to the studio.
Careful you knock, open the door and let yourself in. Chan is sitting on his desk focused on his computer screen. After a second he looks towards you. You close the door behind you.
"It's late Chan. You shouldn't work now. Just go to sleep", you say softly knowing that he will not do that.
"I need to finish something", he mumbles his fingers on his lips. "What's that?" He asks, seeing the bowl in your hands.
"I figured that you would not come out when the boys told me you were in the studio. So I brought dinner." You put the bowl on his desk and sit down behind him. You let out a little sigh as your body finally relaxes a bit. Slowly Chan starts to eat. You watch him silently.
"How is your neck? You complained earlier that it's stiff."
He rolls his head from side to side.
"It's alright. I just need to stretch a bit tomorrow I think", he says but it sounds like he is lying. So you stand up.
"Turn around." He looks up at you and raises one eyebrow.
"What are you up to?"
"You will see. Turn around." He rolls his eyes but then does what you say and sit down on his chair the wrong way. It's food still in his hands.
"You can always tell me to stop should you feel uncomfortable", you say before you touch his shoulders carefully. "Felix is probably better than I'm at this but… yes."
"Nonsense you are probably also good at this", he mutters slowly, closing his eyes as you start to massage his neck.
"Gosh Channie your neck is so hard. What did you do?", you complain. That makes Chan laugh. It's one of the cute ones you absolutely love.
"The question is more what did I not do?" Now you also start to laugh and shake your head.
"You know I'm sometimes really afraid that you will overdo it, Channie. You are not a machine", you whisper going a bit deeper with our hands massaging his shoulder blades.
"I'm the leader. Who should do it otherwise? It's…" He stops himself as he lets out a little moan.
"I'm sorry did I hurt you?", you ask, actually quite anxious.
Slowly Chan shakes his head.
"It did hurt a bit but that's my fault. Actually you are really good at it."
"You are such a liar Chan", you laugh and brush softly over his shoulders with your hand.
He let out a little sigh.
"Do that again", he whispers, his eyes still closed.
"It was not even a massage move", you reply.
"I don't care. Please do it again."
You hesitate for a second but then do it.
"You have magic hands. It feels so good", he mumbles and leans against you a bit.
"Stop, I can't do it if you lay against me", you giggle, liking the feeling.
"I don't care", he says again. You start to smile and shake your head. He is getting sleepy.
Carefully, checking whether he likes it or not, your hands travel towards his chest.
"Your hands are so warm", he says slowly. "It feels good." You press your lips together to not giggle like crazy. But the butterflies in your stomach are still there.
You can feel his chest raise and lower slowly and after afew minutes it also makes so sleepy.
Out of nowhere you feel Chans hands touching yours softly.
"What are you doing?", you ask, leaning your head on his shoulder to have a better look. Chan is not answering. He just grabs your hands and holds them close.
You are cheek to cheek with him and feel his warmth. You lean a bit against him.
"Sometimes I wish there would be no dating ban for you guys. Sometimes I wish I would not be a staff", you whisper nearly without your voice but Chan still heard it.
Slowly he looks at you, a sad smile on his face. Then he gives you a little kiss on the cheek.
"I wish that too sometimes", he replies and then sighs. For a while you two fell into silence.
"I think I can't finish anything anymore. My mind is somewhere else." You nod, looking towards the clock.
"When did it get so late?", you ask. It's way too late to take the train. You don't like to go by train so late.
"You can sleep here." You give Chan a soft smile.
"Thanks Channie."
Chans stand up holding one hand of yours.
"What are you doing?", you ask as he locks the door.
"I give us a bit more time. Just the two of us", he tells you now pulling you towards the sofa.
He lays down, pulling you with him. You are now laying on him. You let out a sigh as you feel his warm body on yours. Him hugging you.
"Thank you", whisper, hugging back and closing your eyes.
"Good night. Sleep well", he mutters, already half asleep. He must be really tired because you haven't seen him like this in a while.
"You too Chan. Sleep well."
