After hastily exiting the gymnasium with Jeongin hot on your tail, you swiftly found an empty class before the tears that welled up in your eyes streamed down your face like a river dam had broken free. You leaned back against the desk at the front of the class as broken tears came from your trembling form. Sniffling as you wiped the tears off your face while you tried to calm down, you heard the door open and close before hearing footsteps heading toward you and two pairs of shoes came into view.
Letting out another quiet sniffle as your ears trembled, you looked up to see Jeongin looking down at you. Jeongin looked concerned as he pulled you into a hug, enveloping you with warmth like on a warm summer day.
"It's okay; let it all out," he murmured into your hair, rubbing soothing circles on your back. His silky fox tail wrapped around your waist, offering solace.
As you snuggled deeper into his chest, a tiny hiccup escaped your lips, a sound that was both endearing and vulnerable. Jeongin's arms wrapped tighter around you, his promise to shield you from the tormentors who had made your life miserable unspoken but palpable. He remembered the way they sneered at you as soon as they had entered the gym, and his jaw clenched in determination. In that moment, he vowed to be your sanctuary, your safe haven, the one place where you could escape the cruelty of the world.
Your muffled cries slowly faded into an eerie silence, as if the sound had been swallowed by the darkness. Within a few brief moments, you attempted to pull away, desperate to break free from the suffocating grip. But Jeongin's arms refused to relinquish their hold, instead, they tightened, pulling you even closer, defying the laws of proximity. As you felt his warm breath on your skin, he nuzzled his face deeper into your hair, his gentle motion a stark contrast to the turmoil brewing inside you.
After leaving the main building of the college, you stayed close to Jeongin as you both headed towards his car. Once you got to his car, Jeongin held the door open before shutting it when you got inside, before he got into the driver's seat. Getting into the safety of Jeongin's car, you breathed in his scent before buckling your seatbelt. After Jeongin pulled out of the college parking lot, you watched out the window at the different scenery of buildings and lights while Jeongin drove down the road towards your apartment. Once Jeongin parked outside of your apartment, he got out before opening the door for you. Heading up the stairs to your apartment, you unlocked the door.
You let Jeongin in before you locked the door and took off your coat, hanging it on your coat rack by your door. "I'm going to take a shower," you mumbled with your ears drooped down; you made your way towards your bedroom, grabbing some fuzzy shorts and an oversized sweater from your dresser. Turning the shower on, you got it to the right temperature before stripping off your clothes, letting each piece hit the floor. While you started taking your shower, Jeongin started on making you some Oi Muchim. After getting the ingredients from the fridge, he chopped them up before putting them in a bowl and adding the seasonings.
After placing both bowls of Oi Muchim onto the coffee table in the living room, Jeongin's ears twitched when he heard your footsteps coming into the living room. His fox tail swayed sheepishly behind him when you looked and noticed the food on the coffee table, you tilted your head and looked at him puzzled.
"Oi Muchim, I thought you might be hungry," Jeongin stated as he held out a pair of chopsticks to you; you let a little smile grace your lips before you gently took the chopsticks out of Jeongin's hand and let a quiet "Thank you" escape your lips before you sat beside him on the couch. As you got comfortable next to Jeongin, he put on a Lovely Runner while his tail wrapped securely around your waist before you both started eating.
