"What's wrong? Why are you so quiet? Why aren't you yelling?" Day tried to ask back. Itt bit his lip a little because he felt that he had already lost his mind towards Day. He stood awkwardly.

"Then, I can go back to sleep at home with my mom," Itt said with a raised head to cover his shame. He walked towards the door of the room, but Day's strong arms extended to block the entrance of the door, causing Itt to stop.

"Sorry, I gave you a chance, but you didn't want to stay with your mom. So, you can't go anywhere. Go shower and get ready for bed. Don't you have class tomorrow?" Day asked. Itt hesitated before starting to pout.

"Okay, okay," Itt replied in a grunt before picking up a towel and disappearing into the bathroom. Day watched him and shook his head slightly before picking up the empty liquor glasses and cleaning the room. As soon as he walked back into the bedroom, he found Itt had just come out of the bathroom.

Day decided to take a shower. Itt avoided him before he was still feeling embarrassed about losing his face. Day finished showered. He came out to see that Itt had already fallen asleep. Day didn't say anything. He got dressed and moved to lay on the bed next to Itt.

"Move over," Day said softly. Itt automatically rolled towards Day.

"Huh? Are you pretending to be asleep?" Day asked, and Itt opened his eyes.

"Who said that I was pretending to be asleep? I was just resting my eyes," Itt argued back.

"So, why did you come to see me? Can't sleep unless you have me hugging you?" Day asked again.

"You're stuck on yourself," Itt argued back again.

"I am not a narcissist. When I told you to move towards me, you immediately rolled. Just like that. You don't want me to hug you. So, what does it mean then?" Day asked. Itt's mouth was closed because Day put him on the spot. He couldn't argue back. He moved away from Day and laid down with his back to him.

"Stop talking so much. I'm going to bed now. I have an early class tomorrow," Itt said.

Suddenly!

Itt's small body was pulled into a hug from behind by Day.

"Stop bragging. I admit, no one said anything about you not being able to sleep because you don't sleep without me," Day said again. Itt grunted lightly.

"I'm more than that. It's you that can't live without me," Itt said in return.

"You dare to argue with me?" Day said flatly.

"No," Itt replied softly, but he felt relieved in his heart.

"Then go to sleep. You talk a lot. It's annoying. I'll take you to the university tomorrow," Day said. So, Itt closed his eyes slowly. Both he and Day fell asleep shortly after.

...

"Day, wake up. I have to go to class early," Itt's voice rang out. When he woke up, he took and shower and got dressed for his morning class, but Day was still asleep in bed.

"What's wrong? You're so loud this early in the morning," Day shouted.

"I'm going to class. Are you going to let me go by myself?" Itt asked again. Day cursed lightly before sitting up with messy hair.

"Drive my car. The keys are on the table," Day asked in a sleepy voice.

"No, what if your younger brother sees me? How will I respond?" Itt said back.

"Call your friend Nick to pick you up," Day said again.

"I tried to call him, but his phone is off," Itt replied.
