20.It's time

Author's pov

You and Jungkook sat on the couch when Jieun was in the kitchen with Yang Yang.

"Baby boo" Jungkook called but you just continued your staring competition with the floor.

"Cutie pie" Jungkook said again but got no response from you.

"Baby cake" he called with a cute smile.

"Apple pie" he said again.

"I'm not food" you blankly said but looked away pouting.

"Sorry" he pouted. "I just wanted to tease you".

"Are you talking about calling me with food names?" you asked.

"No" Jungkook said. "You know what I'm talking about".

He came closer to you and cupped your cheeks.

"Sorry" he said. "Why would I even think about any other woman when I have you?"

He smiled and you couldn't help but grin back at him.

He pecked your lips and cuddled with you on the couch.

Bedtime~

"I've spread some mattresses on the floor of the room's corner" the witch said and you three nodded.

You all just finished your dinner which was janchi guksu.

The house resembled a hanok and Jungkook and you loved the place.

You landed on the mattress with your head thrown on the only pillow there.

Jungkook agreed to sleep on the couch. You couldn't help but pout at the thought.

You saw him spreading the blanket over himself and got ready to sleep.

You sighed and closed your eyes, trying to sleep.

But you couldn't.

All these days, he'd cuddle with you. And now, the fact that he was not there by your side to hold you, sleep didn't even seem peaceful to you.

"It's okay. You used to sleep alone before he came. You can do this" you mumbled. "One sheep, two sheep, three sheep, four sheep, five sheep, six sheep, seven sheep, eight sheep, nine sheep, ten sheep, eleven sheep, twelve sheep, thirteen sheep-"

"Y/n, it feels like you are calling me sheep" the cupid said with eyes closed and you pouted.

An hour later~

"I can't do this" you mumbled and got up.

You took slow steps towards the couch, careful not to wake up anyone else.

You were near the couch but stopped on your tracks when you heard Jungkook's voice.

"There's a water bottle on the floor. Be careful" he said.

"You're awake?" you asked him, more like whispered.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" he asked.

"What about you?" you asked.

"Couldn't sleep without you" he low-key said.

"Same here" you replied.

"Come to me" he stretched his arm towards you and you climbed on top of him.

The couch was small, so you had no other option but lie on him.

"We can sleep there" you pointed to the mattress on the floor.

"No, I'm too tired to walk there" he said as he wrapped his arms around your figure. "I've already wasted enough time by not cuddling with you" he mumbled while you buried your face in the crook of his neck.
