☆ chapter seven ☆✔

you both leaned in as if you were about to kiss. you closed your eyes tight, ready for your lips to connect, but quickly opened them after he pushed you away from him.

"of course you love me. everybody loves me, i'm a star." he said staring at you, eyebrows knitted together tightly.

"you don't love me like how I love you, you're just a fan. your heart doesn't ache for me." he lifted a hand to his forehead as if he was in anguish.

"wait, what? Ji-Woon, I love you much more than just a fan." you tried to convince him, but he only pushed you around in the water more. you soon became frustrated by it.

"Ji-Woon, stop! I love you so much, can't you see that? stop pushing me around like the last few days have been for nothing!" you said, tears flowing down your cheeks.

he only kept quiet. he stared at you, brows still knitted together. you rushed over to him and held onto the sides of his wet jacket before speaking.

"Ji-Woon, listen to me. I don't just love you like a fan, I've completely fallen for you. it's like you have me in this trance, and I just can't get enough of you. I know we've only known each other for no more than a few days, but I really think I could be with you forever. I really love you Ji-Woon. with all of my heart."

all you could do now was look into his eyes, hoping that he would respond in some sort of positive way. you stared at each other for awhile, but nothing happened. you were getting ready to turn away and just go back to your tent for the night, but you got pulled into a bear hug.

Ji-Woon buried his head into the crook of your neck before speaking.

"y/n, I... I am so sorry. sometimes I just get caught up in my fame, and it's as if I lose all control of myself."

he pulled away and hooked his hands on your shoulders, his yellow eyes staring down your own.

"y/n, you need to understand. all that fame, I cannot experience that anymore. my fans, they... they aren't here to give me that attention I crave. but you... you have what all my fans had. you are all I need. but please, don't take your eyes off of me. I need you, I love you, I must have you."

he sounded desperate. it was true, all of that attention he had will never be present again. not with the few people that were trapped in this realm. it wasn't enough. but you, you were enough for him.

that thought scared you. if you took your attention off of him for too long, surely it wouldn't end well. but, you did love him and you would at least try. you would always be there for him.

"i'm here, Ji-Woon. and i want to stay." you said quietly, wrapping your arms back around his neck causing you to hug once more.

"want to get back? it's getting a little late." you asked.

he nodded before getting out of the water and pulling you out along with him.

☆☆☆

after a few minutes of walking, you both got back to his tent. it was pretty late, so there wasn't much company going on outside besides the occasional snore here or there.

you saw Ji-Woon drift away from you, pulling his coat off of his shoulders and sprawling it out on a log. he turned back in your direction and you began to blush.

you weren't exactly sure why. he never had an undershirt on anyways, and his toned skin was always exposed to you before.

once you snapped out of your thoughts, you noticed that his boots were already off and he was fiddling with his belt.

you blushed an even darker red before turning in the other direction. you didn't exactly want to sleep in wet clothes either, but you also didn't want to sleep completely naked next to him.

"I don't suppose you have a spare shirt or something I could borrow?" you asked, still staring anywhere other than him.

"yeah, there are a few spare shirts in my tent. go get changed, you aren't sleeping with me until you put on some dry clothes."

you only nodded before slipping into his tent. you looked back just to make sure he wasn't watching, and then slipped off your shirt and pants.

you see a simple old shirt of his lying on the floor of his tent and quickly slip it over your head. it was a little big so it covered you up perfectly.

you then heard him make his way inside of the tent. you look over and see that he was in nothing but his boxers. you quickly look away from him, another bright shade of pink spreading across your face.

"y-you're going to sleep with only your boxers on?" you stuttered out looking back at him.

"well of course. none of those old shirts fit me anymore so I only have my usual attire, but it's kind of soaked because someone pushed me into a lake." he responded.

"no need to be so nervous, angel. I won't do anything unless you want me to."

that last comment only made you even more red, but you decided to ignore it.

"let's just get to bed."

he sat down and began to get comfortable in his few covers before motioning a hand to you. you hesitantly walked over and crouched down before pushing yourself onto your back. you looked over to him to see him staring at you.

you pulled him down and positioned yourself on top of him. you rested your head against his chest and listened to his heartbeat before smiling to yourself. you wrapped your arms underneath his, and kissed him passionately.

his hands snaked their way up to your waist and held you in place gently before moving you back over to his side. he pulled you back against him, once again spooning you. his arm wrapped around your waist, and his chin rested on the top of your head. it was perfect.

you rather quickly became drowsy and drifted off to sleep.
