Chapter Text
The boys were getting ready to pack since they had to go to Jeju for their shoot. Ni-ki had his airpods on while trying to figure out what to pack. Jay was busy with the camera as he pestered the other members with endless questions about what they wanted to do when they arrived at Jeju.
After what felt like hours, they finally finished packing for their short trip to Jeju. “I’m famished! All that packing made me so hungry.” Heeseung said while pouting. “Aw, I can cook some ramen. Jungwon-ah, do you want some?” Jake said to Jungwon who was aggressively nodding with a smile plastered on his face.
Jake and Jungwon headed to the kitchen while Heeseung made his way back to the living room to annoy his dongsaengs.
Heeseung bent down to Sunoo who was on his phone scrolling on twitter. He then tried to steal his phone but Sunoo quickly moved it away from him. “Yah! Why are you like this?” Sunoo said teasing his hyung and hoping that would make him stop. Heeseung left him alone in the living room while playfully saying “Cause your reaction is so cute, Sunoo-ah!”. Sunoo glared at him but Heeseung failed to notice since he was headed back to the kitchen to look for new targets to pester.
“Sunghoon-hyungg” Sunoo said, dragging out the ‘hyung’ and clinging onto his arm to get his attention. “I swear to God if you’re gonna pester me-” Sunghoon said and was cut off with Sunno hurriedly waving his hands and shaking his head to imply that he was not gonna pester him.
“Do you know where Ni-ki is?” Sunoo asked him. “Ah, he’s in the room. On his phone, I think.” Sunghoon replied while putting back all his attention on his phone. Sunoo stood up and left the living room as he loudly thanked his hyung. He was about to enter the room when a delicious smell pulled him to the kitchen.
“Ah, Sunoo-hyung! You can have a bite.” Jungwon said to Sunoo who was eyeing the ramen. Sunoo thought about how he was on a diet so he politely declined. He waved at the camera that was on the table before he left the kitchen to go inside the room. “Ni-ki, have you eaten yet? They cooked some ramen if you haven’t.” Sunoo said while waiting for a response from the younger.
“Hyungg, my tummy hurts.” Ni-ki said while curling up into a ball and placing his hands on his stomach, hoping it would ease the pain. “What? Why? What happened? Did you not eat? Maybe you ate something bad. Wait, let me get some water and medicine.” Sunoo said while panicking and walking to the door when he felt a grip on his wrist.
It was weak but still enough to make him stop and to bring his attention back to the younger. “Don’t leave, please. Can you stay here with me?” Ni-ki said to his hyung whose concerned expression turned into a soft one with a soft smile on his lips.
Sunoo sat beside Ni-ki who was laying in bed, eyes closed and hand still on his stomach. He was facing the wall beside the bed which allowed Sunoo to place his hand at the side of his stomach, gently caressing it. “Yah, are you nervous for tomorrow?” Sunoo asked him and the younger responded with a nod.
“Hmm, don’t think about it too much, okay? You won’t be doing it alone. I’ll be there with you.” He said which made the younger look back at him with a smile.
Sunoo soon realized what he had just said and quickly added “-and the other members too, of course.” which made Ni-ki giggle. “Ah, Sunoo-hyung you just love me too much! I’m definitely your favorite.” Ni-ki said with a smirk, waiting to get a reaction out of his hyung. “Yah! Shut up, that’s not true!” Sunoo said, disagreeing with his statement.
“Mhm, but your cheeks say otherwise, hyung.” Ni-ki replied as he weakly reached out to pinch his hyung’s red cheeks and cupped it after doing so.
Sunoo leaned into his hand, loving the feeling of his soft and slender hands cupping his cheeks. Sunoo’s smile turned into a pout when he felt the younger removing his hand from his cheek, already missing the contact. Ni-ki noticed this.
To be fair, Ni-ki noticed all the little details about his hyung, his love for the stars, how he craves mint choco when he’s in a bad mood, how he buys the same bubblegum toothpaste every time, and so much more details that not much seemed to notice.
Ni-ki moved back nearer to the wall, signaling his hyung to lay beside him. “Can we sleep? I’m tired.” Ni-ki says in his sleepy voice. Sunoo hums in response and lays down beside the younger.
Once they were both in bed, Ni-ki pulls the blanket over them and Sunoo does the same. Ni-ki shuffled closer to Sunoo and placed his head in the crook of the older’s neck.
This was their favorite sleeping position. Although Ni-ki was taller and bigger, he secretly loved being the little spoon and placing his head in the crook of his hyung’s neck because he was his favorite scent.
The two quickly drifted to dreamland, comfortable in each other’s arms.
