In which Janez is stressing about final exams and staying up late at night to study. His boyfriend, Dražen, comforts him.
It was quiet this night, which was strange, for usually there’d be students out partying or just doing stupid shenanigans somewhere in the dorms. White moonlight seeped in through the window, illuminating the stressed Slovenian sitting in a small desk, paperwork and notes strewn about the average sized room. The young man knew he should be asleep, but the final exams were going to occur next afternoon and it made him anxious.
A soft knocking at the door made him jump, startled at the noise. If it hadn’t been so quiet this night, he definitely wouldn’t have heard it. Calming down, the man got up and made his way to his door, grabbing the handle and carefully opening it, only to blink in surprise when he saw a certain Croat standing in front of him. His surprise melted away and he smiled tiredly at the man, “Dražen…,” his expression then grew into concern, “Why’re you up so late??”
“I should be saying that to you, Janez,” Dražen chuckled softly and pecked his boyfriend’s cheek, “So, why are you up so late?”
Janez let out a sigh and moved aside for the Croat to come into his dorm. “I’m stressed as all hell,” he admitted, moving back to his small desk, “So, what about you, Dražen?”
“Guess I’m stressed as well,” Dražen sat down on Janez’s bed, “And I wanted to check on you.”
Janez gave his boyfriend a smile, “That’s thoughtful, Draž…”
“I know, you love me for it,” the Croat smirked, “I also thought you wouldn’t mind seeing your hot boyfriend before the exam~”
The response he got was the Slovene rolling his eyes, “You sound like Vuk,” he said teasingly.
“Hey, I don’t sound like that asshole!” Dražen retorted, crossing his arms over his chest. Janez merely snorted and turned back to his papers, a short period of silence following soon after.
“...you really should be asleep, Janez.”
The Slovene blinked and looked back at the Croat. Eventually sighing, he pushed the study guide he had aside, “It’s hard when you’re stressed.”
Dražen gave him a half-smile, “I know,” he paused to think for a moment, “...want me to sleep with you?”
Janez raised an eyebrow at this, “You think we’d fit?”
“If I fall off the bed, you’re comin’ with me.”
They both chuckled, then Janez thought for a moment, “...yeah, I’d like to do that…”
“Great!” Dražen smiled and patted the space beside him, Janez soon joining him. The Croat pulled the Slovene close and nuzzled him. Janez smiled and kissed his cheek, “...thank you, Draž.”
“For what?” Dražen raised a brow.
“For being here for me. Exams suck ass, but… You make it all better.”
Dražen smiled, “You’re welcome, hun,” he leaned over and pecked his lips, “Now, go the fuck to sleep,” he added with a chuckle.
Janez chuckled as well, “Only if you do, too,” he replied. The Croat pouted before huffing, “Fine,” he said in a jokingly exasperated tone, giving Janez another peck on the lips before getting comfortable with him and shutting his eyes.
Janez got himself settled, having his head resting on his lover’s chest. However, he didn’t fall asleep just yet. He listened to the slow, rhythmic beats of Dražen’s heart, as the Croat was already asleep. He smiled softly. He felt so safe in Dražen’s arms. He was so lucky to have him. Before the Slovene knew it, he was sound asleep, the soft smile still adorned on his face.
