The Big Reveal

Chapter 23 | One Bed

"Sure," he says, turning around.

I took out a pair of trousers. My shirt was okay to sleep in. I instantly changed and got out. Jungkook was sitting on the couch, scrolling on his phone. He went inside, next.

Ah finally, sleep.

Wait.

One bed? And two people? Nope.

The couch was very short, just to fit either my torso or my legs. But still, you got to fit in, no matter what. I lay on the couch lifelessly, my legs hanging. Thank god, there was an extra blanket. As soon as I lied, I slept. No thought, no disturbance, just me sleeping on the couch.

"Hana?" yells Jungkook.

I opened my eyes, looked around, and found Jungkook standing on my head.

"What? Is it morning already?"

I wasn't ready to accept it. I need more sleep.

"No. Why are you sleeping here?" he asks, rubbing the towel against his wet hair.

"What? I am okay. Just let me sleep," I said, eyes closed.

"Get up," he says, lifting me in a sitting position on the couch. I suddenly woke up. "Sleep on the bed."

I looked at him, irritably. Just let me sleep, it doesn't matter. Therefore, I don't move.

"Your back already aches. Go sleep there," he repeats.

"Where will you sleep?" I asked.

He looked around as if another bed would appear miraculously. Then he looks back at me.

"Here," he says, pointing to the couch.

"No way. You will get a spasm. You have to perform in a day."

"I'll sleep-"

"NO," I scream.

"Okay then, I won't sleep on the bed too," he announces. He then picks the pillow from the bed and throws it on the ground in front of the bed, and sits down, posing to lie down.

I instantly got up. "Are you kidding me? Get up!" I motioned to grab him by his arm now. It has been my friend today, grabbing it again and again.

He stands still. Now we both look around; first on the bed, then on the couch. If I slept on the bed, he would sleep on the couch and vice versa. Jungkook's eyes are now fixed on the bed.

He really wants to sleep on this.

"Jungkook, just let me-"

As I spoke, Jungkook picked the pillow from the ground and moved to the bed. He placed it in-between, dividing the bed into two portions. And then, he picks another pillow and puts it where the first ends, making a pillow-line.

His face is suddenly bright up.

"You sleep on that side, and I'll on this side. Okay?"

I still stood in dismay.

I CAN NOT SHARE A BED WITH HIM.

My eyes were full of sleep. I would even lie on the ground, but Jungkook won't understand. Just a few hours till the sun rises, I don't want any more arguments. It made me angry, actually.

I picked my blanket from the couch and threw it on the bed. Without meeting his eyes even once, I slid under my blanket, my back touching the pillow boundary he made.

Just sleep!

I could feel Jungkook changing his position, and finally lights off.
