"wonie!!!"

jungwon woke up when he felt arms wrapped around him. he rubbed his eyes and chuckled, stretching while still in bed. he squinted his eyes to see who was cuddling him, but he already knew who it was by the way he was cuddled.

"riki~?" though the younger one would sometimes get shy with skinships, he was already close enough with jungwon for hugs. riki sat up straight, gesturing towards the cabin door that was wide open. "get up, get up, we need to leave soon!" it was obvious that he was onto something judging by his tone.

"why are you up this early?" jungwon asked as it was unusual for riki to be up before him; he was always the last one to get up among their small friend group.

"sunoo hyung woke me up," he pouted his lips. "and of course i woke up when he shook me awake. how could i refuse him?"

"riki preferring sunoo over sleep? geez, you're completely smitten!" jungwon chuckled and his head naturally turned to the left, where jay's bed was. the older blond was already gone.

"aish- you know i like sunoo hyung," riki muttered and pulled jungwon's arms for him to sit up straight. "since it's our first morning here, the daily activity today is..," his eyes sparkled in excitement, and jungwon knew it was something fun. "hiking!"

"mwo?" jungwon giggled, but it would be a lie if he said he wasn't excited to go out in nature.

"well, firstly, we're gonna go hiking! and sunoo hyung and i thought, hey, i brought my camera along, what about we have a photoshoot? so we asked a supervisor, who was really cool and his name is heeseung- anyways, go put on a good outfit!"

jungwon's eyes lit up at the thought. "ah!! i'm gonna do that, but i need to wash up first!"

♡♡♡

everybody met by the eating area, eating some food to fill up their stomachs before their hike. jake and jay also changed into something similar to their clothing, and the sky was still a bit dark since it was early in the morning.

"now, this hike would be a very good exercise and a healthy way to start your day," a supervisor said, clasping his hands together.

riki nudged jungwon's arm, "that's him! heeseung hyung."

jungwon's mouth formed into an 'o'. jay locked eyes with the latter, causing jungwon to meekly smile. they greeted each other goodmorning the first second they saw each other by the table.

"listen, hyungs, riki and i asked permission to go take a mini photoshoot," sunoo beamed, and he was the most well-dressed among the rest of the teens in the campsite. "you guys can join the photoshoot!"

"ooh, i'd love to!" jake grinned, "i wanna take photos during our two-week stay."

"that's great! how about you, jay hyung?" jungwon asked curiously.

the older guy shook his head and waved his hand with a little smile, "ah, i don't wanna change my feed for the time being- my instagram followers must be tired seeing me post frequently. but, i'd gladly be the photographer!"

"okay! but only in pictures with me on it," riki said, which caused everyone at the table to chuckle.

♡♡♡

the hike wasn't an obstacle to jungwon. in fact, he loved the physical exercise as it warmed up his body as he was skipping his taekwondo training for the following days.

as the group reached the peak of the mountain, riki didn't waste a second as he pulled out his camera. "picture time!"

"ah ah!" heeseung shook a finger in front of them. "before that," he faced the rest of the other teams, "go with your camping buddies, and never separate! in case of an emergency, use your whistle."

sunghoon, the other supervisor, glanced at his wristwatch. "we'll meet again here in an hour. feel free to do whatever you want, but make sure not to get too far!" he said and all of them responded a 'yes'.

as heeseung dismissed them, riki pulled sunoo's hand, "now, let me take a picture of you." sunoo chuckled and playfully rolled his eyes, finding the perfect spot for the pictures.

"hey, guys, i'll go there for a while," jungwon pointed towards the cliff. sunoo and riki's eyes widened, making jungwon burst into laughter. "i'm not jumping! you guys are stupid," he playfully said and bid them a short goodbye.

jungwon sat by the edge of the mountain, looking below as his lips twitched in a smile. below the mountain were houses and other buildings, but he knew the city lights would definitely make the view more beautiful when it's night.

"mind if i sit with you?"

jungwon turned his head to see the familiar blond. he gestured to the spot beside him, "sit down, hyung."

his roommate smiled and did as he said, looking down at the view as well. "so, did you sleep well?"

"mm, yeah, i did," he chuckled and glanced at jay. "you?"

"well, it was fine," the older one sighed and stared at the sky. "but.. i cuddle something at home. i just miss it, i guess."

"ooh?" jungwon tilted his head curiously. "what was it~?"

jay's cheeks turned pink, clearing his throat as he sheepishly scratched his head. "um.. my teddy bear."

the dark-haired boy loudly giggled, covering his mouth in an attempt to muffle out his laughter. jay looked at jungwon with his eyebrows raised, "yah. it's not funnyyyy."

jungwon was still laughing, shaking his head as he cleared his throat, "i-it's not that," he took a deep breath to calm his giggles down. "it's just that.. you're so cute, hyung."

jay chuckled at what he said, his smile getting wider before pinching the younger's cheek. "you can say that, but i'm not trying to be cute."

jungwon slapped jay's hand away, rolling his eyes. jay's eyes widened at the sudden sass the dark-haired cutie showed; something jay didn't expect him to have. "stop babying me," his lips unconsciously pouted, "and!! you are cute!! you don't even have to try."

jay could feel weird flips in his tummy. 'ow, what is this?' he thought to himself. 'ah, probably just hungry.'

"huh. thanks, i guess," he chuckled and looked away, "i guess i have to act cooler around you."

"what was that?" a smile formed on jungwon's face. jay teasingly rolled his eyes.

"it's nothing."

"okay then," jungwon giggled and looked back at the view, pretending to not hear what the blond muttered earlier.
