[ They stop in the middle of the street, just minutes away from their hotel, when Sungki grabs Jin like that, his face showing anguish, displayed even more than usual due to the alcohol. Not that Sungki was ever very good at hiding his feelings - not that he ever really tried to - but he didn't cry very much.
Jin reaches up to cradle Sungki's hands in his own. ]
You don't have to be more careful, you're plenty careful. And I'll protect you, day and night. From anything and everything that may try to scare you. You have me always, alright? Always.
[jin looks up at him with wet eyes and a trembling bottom lip. always. the word is a comfort but also what makes the dam break. sungki begins to sob before pressing himself against jin's body.]
I love you, I love you so much.
[he chants it over and over again, little hiccups breaking up the words.]
I don't feel very good...I think there was something wrong with that tea.
[ At this point, Jin is more or less carrying Sungki. It's not the best way, but he's got his strength to rely on, and they're very close to the hotel, he can make it easy. He does let the words wash over him like wave after wave of warm water, pleasant and relaxing and making his heart feel right. ]
I love you too, Sunshine.
[ So much. He frowns at the next words, though, stopping just a few yards from the hotel entrance. ]
Are you going to be sick? Can you hold it until we're in our room? It's okay, baby. It's just the alcohol.
[sungki groans and leans his head against him again, but he doesn't look like he's about to heave all over him or anything. small miracles, all things considered.]
That tea you had. Chock-full of booze, baby. C'mon.
[ He helps Sungki the rest of the way inside the hotel, waving a reassuring hand at the desk clerk and flashing his room card before leading them to the elevators, careful not to jostle too much.
Once inside one, he leans Sungki against the mirrored wall, putting a hand to his cheek as they start going up. ]
You look so flushed. It's a good look, but let's not repeat it too often, yeah?
[ He smiles, and the elevator dings, letting them out. It's not long until they're inside their room, and the door closes heavily behind Jin as he pulls Sungki and sits him on the bed. ]
Still feeling okay? Tell me if you think you're going to be sick. I'll get you a bucket, just in case.
[sungki whines a little, but the displeasure that he feels about it is erased by his boyfriend's proximity.
he opens his eyes once they're on the elevator and grins a little.]
We should do it on an elevator. We should, we should - hi! [he tries to bow to whoever is waiting outside of it before collapsing into giggles. he sit down on the bed heavily before reaching for jin.] I'm sick. I'm so sooo sick with love for you. I'm lovesick, Jinjin, and no bucket could ever hold it all!
[ It's hard not to laugh at Sungki's antics, exacerbated by the alcohol. He truly is adorable, even if his brain-to-filter gets even less functional than usual - which is saying a lot.
Rolling his eyes with all the affection in the world, Jin slips away from Sungki's hands, going to the tiny kitchenette in their huge, expensive, fancy hotel room.
At least, since meeting Sungki, Jin has found some reasons to spend his truly impressive amounts of money tucked away safely. He grabs an ice bucket and leaves it by the side of the bed - the side Sungki sleeps on - before coming back to his boyfriend, kneeling in front of him and wrapping a hand around his ankle. ]
You're being awfully cute, Sunshine, I'll give you that. Let's get your shoes off.
[ Jin smiles up at Sungki. Yep, that is indeed Jin on his knees in front of you. ]
[sungki screws his face up and shoots double-v's, which does make him just about the cutest drunk ever. he's taken by the sight of jin on his knees though, leaning forward to place his hands on his boyfriend's shoulders.]
Let's get everything off.
[he's not even thinking of it in a sexy way, not at that moment anyway. but the idea of all of jin's skin bared for him to press his body against is comforting.]
[ Yes, cute and he knows it. Jin laughs, focusing on taking Subgki’s shoes and socks off, before reaching up to pull his shirt off as well. ]
Lift your hips.
[ He gets Sungki’s jeans open, and starts pulling them off, taking along his underwear for his boyfriend to be fully naked. He leans in and kisses Sungki’s skin, right in the middle of his chest, breathing in deeply. ]
[for some reason the word "hips" is suddenly naughty and hilarious to sungki, and hopefully he remembers this later so he can apologize for any troubles that his giggle fit gave jin while he was taking his pants off.
he flops forward after that, like a ragdoll against jin. he makes a noncommittal sound at the suggestion while his fingers curl and uncurl against his boyfriend's skin.]
[ There is no way to resist the fond eyeroll that Jin does. He just can't help it, especially when Sungki flops forward the way he does, making Jin laughs. ]
Yeah, of course I'll go with you. Someone's got to scrub your back.
[sungki cheers triumphantly, finger pointing in the general direction of the bathroom door. he doesn't seem to be making an attempt to stand up and walk on his own, though.
[ He is a little spoiled, but Jin is happy to spoil him. If there's anything he can do, it's make sure Sungki smiles as much as possible, always.
So he rises, pulling Sungki into his arms, holding him under his butt, and marching straight into the bathroom. He sits him on the toilet as he turns on the water in the shower stall, pulling on his own clothes a moment later. ]
[sungki leans against the sink, watching jin get undressed with a warmth that's more about fondness than lust. though he certainly appreciates his body while he's at it, so pretty to him in every way, but strong too. sungki doesn't go out of his way to cause trouble for his boyfriend, but jin has been his armor a couple of times.
he considers this plan with a frown. it feels like something is missing...oh!]
[ Once naked, Jin gathers Sungki back up in his arms, kissing the hinge of his jaw very gently. He leads them both into the shower stall, pushing Sungki's hair out of his face when the water hits it. ]
Cuddles when we get to bed, yeah? Cuddles now, too.
[ Sungki's cute, and Jin's always been a very tactile person, but his boyfriend had turned him into an absolute fiend for touches, so it's not like he's complaining about how pliant and needy Sungki is being. Jin keeps him close, brushing up and down his back. ]
[does that rhyme? he mouths the words before resting his cheek against jin's shoulder. the water sobers him up a little, but leaves him feeling a little tired too.]
You feel good.
[solid and close, his rock. sungki's arms slip around his waist as he rests his weight against him. he'll also take as much skin to skin contact as he can get.]
I'm sorry I was so much trouble tonight. I thought I was giving you a night of from that but I only made it worse.
[ Gently, Jin maneuvers them so that he can get some shower gel in his hands and soap up Sungki's back, taking his time with it, because why should he hurry, when he's doing exactly what he wants to do with the man he loves most in the entire world.
Jin smiles, humming softly. ]
You do too. And now, you smell just right. Want me to wash your hair, too?
[ Before, Sungki smelled a little of alcohol and regrets. Now he smells clean and like himself and like Jin, too.
Just right. ]
You're not trouble. It's my duty to make sure you're safe at all times, and I failed you.
[ With a hand, Jin lifts Sungki's chin so they can look at each other. ]
What you should understand, my love, is that I never, ever want 'a night off' from you. Never.
[ He punctuates his words with a kiss, not deep, but lingering. ]
[he knows that jin likes it best when he can smell himself on his boyfriend. and honestly, sungki prefers it too. his senses aren't as sharp as a fox's, but it's something that he's learned to pick up on.
he's starting to feel like himself again too, happy without being overly giggly. wanting to lean against jin just for the sake of being close to him, not because he needs to. sungki smiles and puckers his lips for the kiss.]
You always take care of me. Even with the things that you say.
[always the right things, the reassuring things. the words that make sungki fall more and more in love with him.]
I want to take care of you too. Let me wash your hair!
[ With his eyes half-closed, Jin smiles, and nods. ]
Hm, you got that right.
[ You can be certain that Jin will keep subtly scenting Sungki until he only smells like sugar and sunshine and Jin. The only smells he should wear, to be completely honest. It's a completely primal, animal thing, but also a possessive thing.
He's not really good at keeping these feelings in check around Sungki, but Sungki seems to like them, and maybe that's all that matters. He hums, content and warm and pleased himself. ]
Okay, okay. [ And so, if he's directed to do so, he'll turn around, hands on the tiled wall, letting Sungki clean him up. ]
[it's very tough, once jin turns around, to not start getting handsy. to not kiss his shoulder blades and touch his butt and giggle half the time he's doing it.
it's not even the alcohol to blame. these are the things that sungki likes to do completely sober.
but he knows how distracted he can get, so focuses on the task he named instead, conveying his affection through the slide of his fingers through jin's hair.]
Did you know that if I can't fall asleep, all I have to do is touch your hair and I'm out like a light?
[or fur, on the nights when jin feels like sleeping in his other form.]
[ With a heavy, content sigh, Jin lets his head drop back, pushing a little into Sungki's hands, letting him massage his scalp gently. It's the kind of indulgence he doesn't get a lot of - he usually prefers to be the one taking care of Sungki, force of habit, but when the tables are reversed, he can't help but turn into complete goo, practically purring. ]
Does it happen often?
[ Sungki's words do bring a slight frown to Jin's face. He didn't used to sleep very much and he's still a pretty light sleeper, but making a life with his boyfriend had changed his habits, which made him, apparently, less sharp than before. ]
I'm sorry. I should be awake to keep your nightmares or bad thoughts away.
