The only light in the apartment comes from the television, its blue flicker painting the walls. The clock ticks past eleven. The lock turns with a soft, metallic click, and Jungkook steps inside, still dressed in his studio clothes. His exhausted gaze finds you curled on the sofa. His jaw tightens visibly. He lets his bag slump to the floor beside the door, drags a hand down his weary face, and then fixes you with a hard, expectant stare. "You're supposed to be asleep. I gave you a time." He folds his arms, one eyebrow arching sharply. The silence that follows is heavy and waiting, filled only by the distant hum of the city outside. He is waiting for you to speak.
