Silas opened the door too fastly for Jiwon to do something about it.
I hope Minseok has put on a shirt or something.
Jiwon rushed in right behind Silas and took a quick look around. There were no clothes left on the floor and Minseok was lying under the blanket with his back to them.
Silas was already taking off his clothes while Jiwon was still gratefully looking at the lump under that blanket.
Thank god the moonlight was bright and Silas doesn't open the lights when someone's sleeping, or he had already discovered the bruises on my neck and jaw.
"Wow. Your change is really well sensible," Silas says.
"What do you mean by that?"
"The minute I walked in your scent bombarded me. Like it's everywhere in this room."
Maybe that's because it's still on my bed...and on Minseok.
"Oh, I had not realised that," Jiwon answers after a silent second.
"I think Imma stay up for a little longer, Silas," Jiwon abruptly says, "I'll be taking a shower. Sweet dreams for you, though," And Jiwon left their bedroom.

Jiwon was lying on his back on the couch, scrolling through his For You Page, when he felt a certain presence.
"Thought you had already taken a shower?" Minseok says while walking closer.
"And you looked fast asleep, mister," Jiwon answers while Minseok slowly crawls on top of him and stays hovering above him.
Jiwon looks carefully at the other's body, the bruises he has applied and caresses each one.
"It suits me, doesn't it. I think I want to keep my body this way," Minseok says while looking down.
Jiwon draws his hand back from Minseok and takes his shirt off in one swift motion to look at his own body too.
"I think I like it this way too."
Minseok looks the other in the eyes coming closer, then turns his head sideways resulting in Jiwon pouting.
"Nah, Jiwon. Neither of us will be able to hold back, and Silas is sleeping within earshot," he kisses the younger one on the temple, "Just wanted to say you could sleep in my bed, yours's still dirty."
Jiwon smiled and looked at Minseok , "thanks, but Silas's already seen you in bed, it's better if I sleep on the sofa. I can say I fell asleep while watching a movie or something."
"You really, really sure?"
"I don't want him to be more suspicious than he already is."
"Sweet dreams, honey."
Jiwon stares at the door after Minseok leaves, smiling at the pet name. Sweat dreams for you too, baby.

It was late at night, far past midnight, the moon was already high and the streets were almost deserted. Almost.
Silas could see two bodies in the full moon's light nearby a tree. One of them hovered over the other's neck and after a couple of minutes, the other sank in and fell on the floor. The latter stayed on the floor like that while the other turned away and disappeared in the darkness.
Silas felt something change. Everything around him suddenly got extra clear. He could hear a faint dripping noise coming from the human on the ground.
As Silas was about to jump down from his place on top of a building when a motion in his eye corner caught his attention. It came from between the woods.
A big dog-like creature was hunting down a deer. Silas focuses all his attention on the chase taking place in the forest. He felt his pulse increase at the speed of light. Just as he is about to help the hunter down there, another hunter appears on the scene.
The first one died in a matter of seconds. But this didn't stop Silas. He still jumped off of the building and sprinted into the forest.
He slowed down his pace right behind the hunter, snarling as he walked closer to the man. Just as the man turns, facing Silas, Silas attacks the man, claws out, aiming straight for his neck. Instantly Silas felt the man crumble beneath his touch, but this didn't make him stop. He was too thirsty and only stopped when he heard noises coming from between the trees and bushes behind him.
He was sitting on the floor with the human on his lap. When the noises came closer he stood up, leaving the man lifeless on the floor, his back still turned towards the noise.
The source came closer and out of the bushes, Silas could hear it clearly walking just a couple of meters behind him. And smell it. Yes, he knew this smell. It had haunted him in his dreams the two last nights but never had it come this close.
Slowly a hand slipped over his right shoulder onto his chest and lower, stopping just above his waist. Another hand took place on his right cheek, turning Silas head a little to the left, where a head was resting on his shoulder.
"Took you long enough, I was expecting you earlier," the person says while slowly trailing his fingers over Silas's cheek onto his bottom lip, "I thought I sensed a presence on top of that building. You're a long way from home, baby boy."
"W-who are you," Silas spluttered while crumbling under the other man's touch.
"I think you know who I am." Silas turned around abruptly resulting in the man's touch leaving his chest, shoulder and lip.
Just at that moment, a deafening noise made him fall to the ground, but while he felt as if he was falling down, he actually got up.
Gasping for breath, Silas was sitting on the bed looking forward. His hand went straight to his mouth, which was suddenly clean again. Trying to calm his breath and heart pace, Silas stood up and walked to the bathroom to wash his face and cool down a bit. As he could finally take a breath normally he looked up in the mirror and tried to list everything.
He tried to understand what happened, just a second ago he was standing in a forest. Then it occurred to him; It had all been a dream. I didn't really witness two murders or...or commit one.
He breathed a sigh of relief and ran his hands through his hair. Then he left the bathroom, aiming for the bedroom, but when he sees a figure lying on the sofa he walks towards him.
"Jiwon," he whispers, shaking the other awake.
"Mhm."
"Jiwon, I know it."
"What? Why are you whispering? What do you know?"
"Shhhh! I know the cause of those attacks of mine."
"What? How? Si what the actual what, I just woke up."
"I had a dream, Ji."
"I did too, until you woke me up."
"I saw him."
