CHAPTER TWENTY THREE

Y/N POV

Daylight seeped through the gaps in each curtain, black birds humming and bees buzzing amongst themselves busily, no city sounds or unhealthy engine growling - it was strangely peaceful and nature-like. The warm toned arms wrapped around me shifted, turning around to face him cutely.
"Good morning beautiful." He smiled lazily running his hand through my hair as I snuggled up to him cozily. Groaning slightly as a cranky knock brayed against the cabin door.

"Sunwoo Kim, Y/N L/N, it's Professor Smith." A high pitched female voice announced from the other side. Sunwoo pulled himself out of bed, not bothering to put on a shirt or anything else remotely - wiping his eyes tiredly and dusting through the fluffy waves of his hair. Opening the door slightly ajar and protecting me from being seen as I hid my body under the covers. Professor Smith caught on rather quickly after seeing me peer over his shoulder and uttered a sigh of disappointment

"It's 12pm, are you two getting up? We're going to a nature museum today. You missed breakfast and your friends are making quite the commotion over there." She laughed slightly, pointing at the group who was hollering idiotically at us from a distance. "Oh and in future can you keep it down? I'm right next door." She smiled with a vague cringe in her voice, as Sunwoo chuckled to himself arrogantly.
"Sorry about the noise complaint, we'll be out soon." He bluntly replied with a darkened smile before slamming the door shut.

"That's so embarrassing." I buried my head into the sheets as he walked over with a laugh. Lazily throwing a shirt over his head and beginning to get ready. Snatching one of the loose sheets from the bottom of the bed I pulled it around me and got up from the bed.
"You don't have to walk around like I haven't seen everything." Sunwoo poked a slight bit of fun at the attire of the cotton bed sheet wrapped around me. I shot a glare his way as he giggled to himself. I picked some clothes from my case and brought them to the bathroom to get ready. Presenting myself in the mirror, Sunwoo barged in beside me shoving a toothbrush into his mouth and scrubbing his teeth aggressively. Giggling at him pathetically, I fixed my hair prettily whilst he looked over at me in the mirror.
"My pretty baby." He spoke with a muffled smile, the toothpaste making his words practically inaudible - smiling back at him as he wrapped his arms around my waist.

Grabbing my things before leaving, Sunwoo closely followed out - hurrying to find the group before the coach left for the trip. Gathered around in a flock, smoke clouds of tobacco forming around them - they turned in expecting glances.
"Finally, we've been waiting for you all day." Changmin rolled his eyes, ignorantly leaning his hands on to his hips.
"Well at least we're here." I sighed with a sarcastic smile, joining the line to get on the bus.
"Is this attitude problem of yours a phase or is it here to stay?" Hyunjae replied with a short smile, earning an eye roll and hit on the chest from me as I passed him.
Juyeon tossed Sunwoo a lighter, since his ran out of gas the night before.
"Thanks." He replied bluntly, placing a cigarette between his lips. Glancing up at me, I furrowed my brows in a small disapproval.
"Just one?" He asked taking it out of his lips for a small moment.
"One." I replied shaking my head and listening to his lighter flicker loudly.

Leaving him outside, the boisterous chaos of the rest of the boys echoed from the back of the bus. Juyeon and Sunwoo outside once again being shooed to finish their cigarettes so we could set off quicker. Nonchalantly coughing down the aisles, the both of them found their seats as Sunwoo fell beside me. The bus began running immediately, setting off from the cabin site around us.

"So why were you up so late?" Haknyeon leant over the back of our seats, Chanhee and Changmin springing up beside him. Sunwoo and I shared a look between ourselves on who would answer - however another voice cut in before we could.
"They were with me and Eric until morning." Juyeon answered, not entirely aware of the full story. It worked nevertheless, the boys hung over seats falling back in a defeated huff.
"Well that's boring." Chanhee commented, Sunwoo and I sharing a knowing glance between us both. Trailing his hand down to my own and grasping it firmly. Sharply flashing a sly grin as the others were completely clueless.

Dragging us into the countryside, the bus pulled up in front of an old and grand looking building. Cars parked up inside the lot outside, huge pillars of stone holding up its beige bricks and marbled details. Stepping off, Ashley caught me up linking my arm as we walked inside. Sunwoo was busy in conversation with Juyeon strolling towards the back.
"Okay make sure you stay in groups! Make sure you're taking useful notes that you can use as evidence towards your diploma." The college professor tapped his fingers against his clipboard busily - setting us free to roam the museum.

Passing by the towering sculptures of animal bones, none of us were truly paying attention to the attractions. The large marble hall echoing in laughter and conversations upon the chaotic entry.
"Look! Worms!" Haknyeon chuckled evilly picking up one of the centepide displays and threatening to throw it at us.
"Ew, get them out of my face." Chanhee recoiled in disgust as he pulled them out of the glass and dangled them annoyingly.
"Mr.Ju paws off the displays, they're there for historical purposes and not your amusement." The college professor took it out of his hands as he ran off mischievously.

"So, did you and Sunwoo, you know?" Ashley wriggled her eyebrows suggestively, as I paused in my steps - completely taken aback at the sudden question.
"What?" I asked outrageously, looking over to Sunwoo still talking to Juyeon - boyishly making fun of some insects as they passed and laughing to themselves immaturely.
"I know that face you totally did." She smirked, elbowing me to provoke me even more.
"Oh yeah, and how would you know?" I rolled my eyes jokingly, watching as she bit the inside of her
lip suspiciously.
"Well Sunwoo's in an awfully good mood this morning and it would be a lot less obvious if you could walk in a straight line." She suddenly commented, laughing as I looked at her obliviously. Stopping in my tracks once again, trying to perfect my jagged walk as she giggled evilly.
