A/N: Hey friends ! So here's my first Hoseok piece, a fluffy angst ~ mistake the grammatical errors and spelling mistakes please your girl is going through it :") anyways I hope you enjoy it and have a nice day 💜💜🤸🏾‍♀️

“Y/N?” Hoseok calls in concern as he walks into the house, brows furrowed as he wonders why the door wasn’t locked.

Meanwhile, you've been drenching yourself in the dim shower for over an hour now. What was the scalding heated water splashing on your skin in hopes to calm and warm up your soul but to no avail was now simply just sharp glass like water droplets that threatened to cut through your flesh. But you don't feel a thing, all your senses are shutdown as you blankly stare at the pale tile walls where you are sat with your knee held close to your naked chest.

Unknowingly, as your emotions decide to return to you and all the events of the day and the overwhelming pent up frustration and stress and pain you've tried to keep away just for a little longer resurfaces and a sob escapes your lips, a hand immediately covering your quivering lips as you hope and pray that the sound of the falling droplets of water against the tiles drowns it out. Even you didn't want to hear it and admit to your vulnerability. You need to keep it in and stick up to it right ? That’s what everyone would say, everyone except for Hoseok.

Your senses are so dull and grey while your emotions are so overly present and suffocating that you don't hear Hoseok’s faint foot steps as he follows the sound of the sprinkling water to get to you or the knocking at door for over a minute nor him calling out for in concern and finally deciding that he needs to go in to check on you.

Hoseok stands on the other side of the curtain separating the shower from the toilet for a while and through the sheet material and glass door, he can see your small curled up figure on the edge of the shower floor. He freezes when he hears your light sobs through the obstructions and immediately he frowns as he feels his heart clench.

He glances at the switches near the sliding doors, the heater was switched on but there wasn't a single hint of heat in the air and he would have thought you were taking a shower with cold water expect you actually were. He wonders just how long you had been in there for while you were crying until the water to turn cold especially because with this specific heating system, it would take very long for that to happen.

He wastes no time and slides the curtains, slowly sliding the door as well.

“Y/N?” He peers in, immediately his frown deepening as he looks at you with sad eyes. You reminded him of an abandoned puppy on a rainy day, shivering and trembling and wet and so small in the corner, like you just needed someone to hold you and warm you up and tell you that everything is going to being okay.

As your senses slowly come back to you, you finally notice Hoseok's presence and your eyes go wide.

“H-hobi?” you hiccup through a raspy voice, trying your best not to choke on your own cries as you attempt to hold it back.

He smiles at you softly, his heart melting at the love filled nick name, before he carefully walks in and switches off the shower head. All the while you observe his every move as red rimmed eyes follow his every movement. After he is done he peers down at you, and you immediately look away, pulling your knees closer to you chest as you rest your chin on your knee cap.

Hoseok sighs before sitting down crossed legs so close next to you that your side’s brush, not caring that he gets his pants wet when he sits on the wet tiles.

“Hey,” he greets with a warm smile as he looks over at you, aware of how you are avoiding his gaze.

“Hey,” you reply with a small voice and Hoseok chuckles.

“Can I hold your hand?” He asks out of the blue, causing you to sit up and whip your head to look at him with furrowed brows. Why would he want to hold your hand suddenly?

But still, you nod lightly, immediately feeling your blood rush and heart beat quicken from it's dead state as he takes your hand in his, placing it on his as he intertwined your fingers. Hoseok can feel the way the skin of your palm is wrinkled like dry prunes and he now knows you've been in here longer than you should be.

He exhales deeply as he leans back, head against the cold tiles as he shut his eyes with a subtle smile on his lips.

When you don't flinch against his touch and in fact lean in more and rest your head on his chest, craving for his warm touch, he wraps an arm around your bare waist, pulling you closer into him.

You stay like that for a while, Hoseok rubbing small circular patterns against the flesh of your waist as your body slowly feels warmer and more alive, your breathing getting regular and regulated again. You were feeling so much better just by sitting here with him in this comfortable silence together.

“Hoseok?” you call through closed lids and Hoseok hums in response.

“I think I'm ready to go out now.” You say as you get yourself off his shoulder and look up at him to find him smiling softly at you.

“Okay,” he says as he reaches for the towel on the towel rail and gets up, letting go off your hand to hand you the towel and help you get up as well, aiding you to wrap the towel on and then reconnecting your hands as he beams at you and you both walk out into the dark moonlit hallway.

“Do you want me to carry you? Prince|ss Y/N?” He jokes as his hand wraps around you, aware of how you are shivering and attempting to warm you up by rubbing down the side of your arm while you walk hand in hand.

“I'm not that depressed Hoseok, my feet are kind of fine.” You laugh lowly as you smack his chest playfully, making Hoseok chuckle.

“You suddenly look a lot more prettier like this, when you laugh.” He compliments as he nudges the side of your face with his nose and plants a chaste kiss.

“Hmph,” you huff as you look away while you bite the inside of your cheek to stop your self from crying and cross your arms, the way your cheeks get heated not going unnoticed by Hoseok who grins smugly and proudly for being the cause of your display of a sort of happiness.

“You should get changed quick, it’s really cold tonight and you could get sick.” Hoseok says with a serious expression as he rubs your back and you nod, heading to the room and leaving Hoseok sat on the living room couch with his hand clasped hunched over his lap while you quickly change into something comfy and thick but not too warm.

“Hoseok?” you call out from your room as you look at the door, remembering that he got his clothes wet too and needs to change.

“Yeah?” He breathes out after a few seconds as he peeks his head through the crack of the door, concern and worry laced in his voice.

“Come in, you need to get changed too.” You chuckle as you shake your head at his expression and hand him his sweatpants and white shirt.

“Thanks,” he smiles, taking the clothes and setting it on the bedside table as he slips shirt off and you get on bed.

After a short while Hoseok joins you, an arm coming to wrap around your waist as you smile.

“So what’s up?” He asks as he props himself on an elbow and looks down at you and you tense up again.

“It’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it now, don’t worry.” He reassures with a soft laugh and comforting squeeze at your side at your sudden shift in demeanour.

“Just know I'm here to listen to you always, you don't have to go through it alone.” He continues, placing a soft kiss on the top of your cheek.

You can’t help the tear that slips out of your eye or the next as your body begins to shake, your nails digging into the palm of your hands and cutting through the tough skin.

You had to keep your cool.

Abruptly you get up, throwing your feet off the edge of the bed, ready to go somewhere, you don't know where. Anywhere away from Hoseok, he can't see you like this.

“Y/N,” Hoseok whispers softly with a frown as he sits up too.

Your vision starts to blur as you feel your lungs give out on you and your body fail you. You couldn't move, but you were shaking and you couldn't breathe and there a painful lump in your throat.

Slowly but surely, you let it out. Shy, quiet sniffles and sobs at first until your full on crying your heart out into the palm of your hand as you struggle to breathe and not caring how the salty tears sting against the cuts on your palm.

Hoseok watches you silently for a while, thinking that what you need is personal space but he can't watch you any longer.

Immediately, he wraps his arms around your neck and chest, pulling you into his chest as your sobs get louder.

You shift so that you can nuzzle your face into his chest while he rubs your back and soothes down the back of your head.

“I'm just so, lonely and tired- Hoseok everything is so hard and I just can't keep up or do anything right, Hoseok I'm tired, I can't do this anymore,” you confess through hiccups and sniffles. Hoseok listens intently, waiting for a while for you to calm down a little before he responds.

“Look at me,” he says lowly and you lift your head off his chest, cheeks stained and wet. Hoseok cradles your face in between his hands as he looks down into your wide glossy eyes with a soft smile.

“I understand how you feel. And I know it's been so hard these days for you. I just want you to know, that it’s okay to cry. It doesn't mean you’ve given up, no. You’re not on your own Y/N, sometimes I'm not there and it can be hard to talk these things out over the phone but I'll always listen and do what I can from the distance.” He smiles affectionately as he caresses your cheek lightly.

“If you know just how much your voice alone had got me through so much Y/N. But in the end it’s alright right? Because now I'm here and it’s alright. Don’t listen to the voices in your head, no matter what they say. You’re already so good at what you do Y/N, and you can do so much better. Don’t beat yourself up like that, you’re literally the best person in the world and your company prospers from your work, they'd be damned if you leaved or gave up.” He says with a serious expression despite the lace of some playfulness in his voice but you know he means what he says And you can't help but smile a little.

“And your work is needed, they need you. I need you. When you feel like giving up, it’s okay. Just talk to me. How many times have you talked some senses back into me after i felt like that too ? A lot more than you think sand Look, I'm here and I'm better because of it every time.” He finishes on a slightly angsty note and when he notices your pout he shrugs it off with a light chuckle.

“Hoseok...” you sniffle and Hoseok wipes an incoming tear with his thumb.

“No matter what, know I'm here okay? When things get hard or for whatever reason, okay?” He smiles as he rests his forehead on yours and you nod.

“Know that I love you okay?” He says lowly as he leans down, placing a sweet peck on the corner of your quivering lips and you wrap your arms around his neck, almost falling down but Hoseok is quick to wrap an arm around your waist and pull you onto his lap with a chuckle.

“I love you too,” you confess into the crook of his neck breathlessly and Hoseok notices how you are limp in his arms.

“I know you're tired. Let’s go sleep ?” He beams as he rubs your back and you nod.

Hoseok slowly falls back onto the bed, you head laying on his chest as you wrap an arm around his slim torso and shut your eyes, snuggling closer to him.

Hoseok pulls you onto his chest some more so that your chest is pretty much flush against his ribcage and he can rub your back smoothly, a motion that always got you feeling better.

“Hobi, thank you,” You say after while and from the way your words are slightly slurred and low, Hoseok can tell that you're on the edge of slumber.

“No problem Y/N,” he laughs lowly, placing a kiss on the top of your head before he speaks again.

“Goodnight,” he says as he shuts his eyes and settles, although he wouldn’t be sleeping just yet until you were.

“Goodnight....” you trail off, voice dying down as slumber has finally caught in to you, fluttering eyes now closed shut as your breathing can be heard along with light snores.

When you are fast asleep, Hoseok slowly gets up, managing to slip out from under you without waking you up and sighing in relief at his success.

He walks into the bathroom, grabbing the first aid kit and heading back into the bedroom and coming to kneel on the floor next to you and taking a hand and a gauze along with some mild alcohol.

Carefully, he looks up at you to see that you are still deep in slumber and it would still take a lot to get you to wake up.

He takes your hand, hissing when he see's the scarlet crescent shaped dents in your palm.

He bites his lip, feeling his heart twist. It's such a small cut but it didn't matter because it was a sign of just how hard how your thoughts and feelings bothered and affected you, coaxing you into unconsciously hurting yourself and you never felt it because what you felt inside hurt more. But he doesn’t linger too much on his feelings and getting to treating you.

You flinch a little when he rubs the tiny cuts with alcohol drenched cottons the but settle back into your light snoring while he places the gauze and carefully wraps it with medical tape and placing a light kiss it over it.

He finishes on both your hands before he takes your one of them with a sigh and kisses your knuckles as a soft smile finds its way on his lips while he admires your sleeping figure before he is looking out the window.

He stays awake the whole night as he plans an entire inventory for the next day.

There's a lot going through his head but he knows for sure he's going to stay in tomorrow and he’s going to find a way to convince you to do so as well.

He doesn’t know what the two of you could end up doing tomorrow but he knows that he wants to spend the whole day with you, even if it meant having to escape the responsibilities and stress of work just for a mere 24 hours to feel better and be selfish for once.

Because sometimes, that’s all you really need.

That's it for today ~ I hope you enjoyed it ! Have a nice day and know that someone loves you uwu 😆💜 hop in to my ask box to ask me any thing and make requests🤗🤸🏾‍♀️
