Luna II(A BTS Soulmate AU)

Luna and Joon lie in bed cuddling, both unable to fall asleep yet. She's lying on her back and he's lying on his side with his head on her stomach, one of his arms hugging her hips.

She runs her fingers through his damp hair and hums a melody she made up, lyrics popping up in her head. She starts to sing softly, the tone of her voice sure to put him to sleep soon.

🎵 Day so hard, so much stress
Life won't let up, boy just rest
Lay down and let me cover you in all these kisses
So much on your mind, it weighs on your head
But baby you're worry-free in this bed
Go 'head and let me cover you in all these kisses
Lay back now 'cause you done enough
Work so hard to take care of us
Baby I'll relax your mind if you'll just let me
Sure it feels like nobody cares out there
But you know I'm here
Don't trip about now, you can lay it down, I know it's heavy
Ooh, when you called and said you're on your way
I was waiting
Anything for my lover, anything for my babe
No hesitating
Day so hard, so much stress
Life won't let up, boy just rest
Lay down and let me cover you in all these kisses
So much on your mind, it weighs on your head
But baby you're worry-free in this bed
Go 'head and let me cover you in all these kisses🎵

Sure enough, Joon is fast asleep by the time she finishes, his breath tickling her stomach through the T-shirt she had on. She wanted nothing more than to sleep as well, but she didn't want to risk forgetting those lyrics, so she waited until Joon was sleeping soundly before removing herself from his embrace and slipping out of bed.

The house was quiet, an indication that the others were still at work. She shoots them a text in the group chat, asking what they wanted for dinner as she made her way upstairs to her studio.

She received a text back from Jin saying that they'd pick something up on the way home. He did gestures like this all the time, even offering to do chores she usually did like laundry. She was grateful, knowing it was his way of making things easier on her. Knowing it would ease his mind, most of the time she'd let him do whatever he offered. It was a big help after all. She'd been immersed in her music as well as theirs, along with doing chores, having meetings with Bighit, and making sure her family was safe.

The week before, she'd helped Tae finish his solo song, Inner Child. Working with him had been a smooth experience, seeing as he'd had most of his lyrics written already. They'd played around with a lot of sounds and she'd put together the ones that they liked to form the instrumental for the song. After that, it took no time for him to record it and send it off for approval. Jin and Jimin argued about who would be next and ended up playing Kai Bai Bo to settle it. Jin had won but he had no idea what he wanted his song to sound like. She had her work cut out for her with that one.

She shook her head fondly at the thought and grabbed her notebook, writing down the lyrics she'd come up with. Not wanting to lose the melody, she sat at the soundboard and experimented with sounds, trying to recreate what she'd created in her head. After about an hour, she'd accomplished the sound she was going for and saved it under the title, "All These Kisses."

She revisited the lyrics, writing out a few lines that she would thought good before coming to a stopping point. She never forced lyrics. She just let them come to her.

Since she was wide awake though, she decided to go ahead and listen to the tracks that Lauv's team had sent over. One was called "El Tejano" and the other was called "Who." Apparently, he wanted a feature on El Tejano and an instrumental/possible feature for Who.

She listened to "El Tejano" first and immediately loved it, the Latin feel making her want to get up and dance. She could definitely see herself doing this song, but in Spanish. She was constantly expanding her sound and loved to experiment with the languages she knew.
