A sweet tranquilizing fragrance welcomed my senses, vivid purples of wisteria stretching beyond my view. Astounded, I took in a deliberate inhale, feeling a huge measure of relaxation pass over me with the coldness of the chippy pure oxygen, my lungs cool and carefree as the passing breeze swayed my hair in a soothing masque. I looked around, feeling an irrevocable amount of security and warmth by just existing there.

A soft breath then tickled the back of my neck, involuntary raising a kaleidoscope of butterflies in my insides as I giggled at the ticklings, a gasp of astonishment leaving my mouth shifting my eyes up at the perfect blend of hues in a canvas that was the sky, my eyes gliding across the free strokes of orange and glitter pink beyond fascination.

The rain began descending in tiny drops, making me feel giddy as I closed my eyes shut, filled with euphoria. Taking a long, drawn out inhale of the wonderful scent, I opened my eyes again but returned back to the real world.

Not moving, my eyes caught on the view outside, watching the last remnants of the Sun before they were to bid their farewell beyond the horizon, melting with the darkness and passing over the attention to the goddess that was Moon.

My heart pounded fast in my chest but there was tranquility in my soul, my body securely wrapped in warmth which I comprehended to be the warm hands of Mr. Jeon around my waist, long fingers interlocked with mine subconsciously, making me feel so safe and weak at the knees in his hold. I stayed there for a few minutes, watching the pretty hues of the pretty sky as I laid my back on my crush's chest comfortably, totally in disbelief by the situation, feeling his chest rise up and down in calm, calculated breaths. With some curiosity, I slowly raised my head from his chest, enough illumination for me to turn around and peek at his sleeping face.

He was so beautiful it felt illegal to look at him.

For once, all the thoughts in my head disappeared, even the loud throbbing of my heart sounding foreign as I just stayed still in the moment, silently admiring the charming features of the man I had come to be deeply captivated by. My eyes then landed on the perfect mole hiding under his plush red lips that stood out like the most valuable diamond, long thick lashes framing his pretty, closed eyes, lips morphed into a cute pout as he slept, soft breaths coming in and out from him.

Stunned, I gulped down but carefully extended my fingers to set the disheveled strands of his hair, my chest feeling tight as I froze in the middle, unable to move but just gaze at him, completely captivated by his beauty, his perfection, his aura- him. I licked my lips but lifted a strand of his hair, feeling the softness of his jet-black locks under the pads of my finger. I set them aside as gently as I could, eyes opening wide as my hand froze in the air, this time from being caught by the man himself.

His piercing gaze collided against my wide ones, my stomach dropping discerning the way the last batch of rays melted directly into his irises, reflecting aureate beauty off them, seeing the raw perfection that was Mr. Jeon. I couldn't push my eyes past despite feeling my face heat up with greater intensity with each passing second.

Shyness got the best out of me when I remembered the words he had whispered in my ear, so sensually and so confidently. The words that had sent a wave of hotness and wetness down my whole body, straightening up my posture as I sat up straight, my brain paralyzed.

I turned my eyes away from his, breaking the intense eye contact and turning back to the front, sitting back in my old position while I reclined back against his large chest, fascinated by the robustness of it.
