Still a Childish Dreamer

Next New

I was up pretty early for what seemed like it was going to be a long day. When i came downstairs with my small overnight bag Choi and Seojun had already been downstairs waiting for me.

"What? Does my dress have a stain?"

"No, just...what's with the bag?"

"I was thinking i stayed with you. Since i don't know how everything's gonna work out."

"Um....i'm sorry. Did i not mention we were taking a jet to Paris?"

"P- Paris?!"

"Sorry Choi, you told me to text her and i got carried away. I just crashed when i got home."

"Hmm. Well we need to hurry, just pack extra underwear. I'm sure they'll have us in something different anyway. We can shop."

"Y- yeah."

"Hurry!"

I rushed back upstairs to get my suitcase and just began to throw random things that looked like the same color into it. Seojun followed behind me and immediately offered his help.

"I'll do anything but touch your underwear."

"Too bad, my underwear is all i have left to get mister."

"Don't let me stop you."

He looked from my dresser to me back and forth and i chuckled. When i opened it he looked away. "Wow. Does seeing my garnets make you nervous?"

"It's 5am."

"Or would you rather see them on me for the first time?"

"Would you-"

He turned around and his hands went to both sides of me, resting onto the dresser. My cheeks reddened since i had now been holding a handful of said garnets and he was hovering over me.

He became flustered and moved away. "S- Sorry."

"Don't be. Would've been better if, you know, i didn't have a handful of my underwear."

This was becoming embarrassing, but we have to tough it out.

"So..."

As i pushed at all of my things and sat on my suitcase to zip it, he crouched down and leaned close to my face. Our noses almost touched. "That means this is better?"

He made eye contact with me and i was immediately stuck in a trance. He looked down to my lips and, as if i couldn't control myself, i copied him. Gently, his hand cupped my face and he leaned in to kiss me.

We were so close....

"Guys! Hurry up! Tick tock!!"

We pulled away, startled at the sudden order. He zipped my case and helped me up before lifting it and taking it to the car for me. I cleared my throat and got in the car myself. Choi chose to sit between us. This was good considering we almost kissed. We could have done more.
________________

Choi's POV.....

I didn't know they were as close as the others said before. I assumed that since they took no action, something was holding them back, so anyone else could ease that ache that kept them apart.

If i knew this i would have never accepted his idea to include her on this business trip. I shall not be a third wheel to them experimenting the waters.

I most definitely shall not be hurt when they realize their feelings. Which could take forever.

Seojun needs someone who's sure about themselves. Not someone who looks like it took them a year to learn how to walk in platforms.

I followed just a foot behind the two as we entered the jet. They chose to sit near, but not to where they were uncomfortable. She looked worried, yet he reassured her by holding her hand and showing her how to wear the seatbelt.

"I've been on a plane before dipshit. I know how to put the seatbelt on."

She smacked his hand and he chuckled, gently tapping her back. They passed a few more licks like toddlers and eventually stopped after sharing a laugh.

At this rate he'll quit the career he worked so hard for all because of her. I can't let that happen.

Seren's POV....

The jet ride was pretty smooth for me. Knowing Khyia she would have freaked like when we came here. "Hey-"

I looked over to start another conversation with Seojun, but he had dozed of a bit. I almost laughed to myself, realizing he slept with his hand up his shirt. I wish he was this unproblematic at my house.

I looked back and Choi stared out of the windows in a daze. Maybe she was just thinking. Khyia does the same, but only outside. She lays down on the ground and examines the stars or the sunset until she can't anymore.

Sometimes i think she's old. I mean not physically, but mentally. She takes so much of her time to just sit and think, and she loves the outside.

"Can you please not stare at me? I get enough of that at events."

"S- Sorry."

"If you're bored don't worry, we land in 30 minutes. I'm sure you can convince yourself to do something until then, hmm?"
_______________

As soon as we landed, a car took us to this studio. I'm guessing we were going to sort things out there.

"Choi! One of my most beautiful muses!"

"Ya missed me?"

"Of course i did."

She shared a hug with this slender man who was dressed somewhat comfortable in slacks and a button down that had no sleeves.

He wore makeup too, and his hair was gorgeous.

He looked behind her and greeted Seojun, then looked at me. "And who's this?"

"You said people wanted to see me with someone other than my brother, so i found a sub. She's the only woman i'm accepting."

"This is perfect!"

"Good."

"You two, stand beside each other. Quickly."

He looked between me and Seojun and we looked at each other. Obeying.

"Genius, i'm putting you on the cover. It's been a while since we had a couple."

"But-"

Choi began to protest but he ignored.

"You girls on the front and the surprise on the back! Yes!"

"Sir with all do respect i didn't come to model."

"What you come here to fill space? We need space. You're doing this. Get them to makeup! Come one we have a day ahead of us!"
