"Okay, everybody we should dry our clothes on top of the fire unless you want to freeze to death." Q says while Eric starts a fire in the cave. It's getting darker by now and the wind is picking up more.
"Can I take my pants off? I hate having wet pants," Eric complains
"NO." Changmin says. "Nobody take your pants off!"
They all take off their soaking jackets and shirts and vests and hang them above the fire.
"Is this really necessary?" I ask, surrounded by shirtless boys.
"Get used to it princess," Sunwoo bumps his bare shoulder against mine.
"It's fine if you dont. Your funeral," Q says.
I sigh and unzip my jacket, which was already soaking my black bra through so it doesn't matter anyways.
"Woah, wait." Kevin says. "You can have my jacket while yours dries."
"Doesn't matter," I shrug. "We're a team now."
Q nods in agreement and we all sit around the fire. I catch Sunwoo staring at me from the other side and I narrow my eyes at him.
"We should probably have a night shift right?" Eric asks.
"Yeah maybe two at a time." Q says.
"Okay who's doing night shift first?" Juyeon asks.
"To make it fair we'll pick names," Q says. He grabs the tablet and closes his eyes and taps on two random profiles. "Sunwoo and Soren ."
"Fuck no." Sunwoo says.
"Yeah I'm not spending the night outside with him." I say.
"Don't worry, you'll go for four hours and then we switch." Q says.
"No. Pick again." Sunwoo says.
"This is a democracy, deal with it."
Sunwoo looks at me. "If someone comes to attack our base, I'm throwing you towards them."
"Not if I throw you first." I say
"Dammit," Juyeon says. "They're gonna kill each other and then we all die because nobody's watching over!"
"They won't kill each other." Kevin says to Sunwoo and I.
"No promises." Sunwoo says.
"Okay well the sooner you two start the sooner it can be done so," Eric ushers is out.
I sigh and I stand up and put my jacket on and so does Sunwoo.
"Catch." Sunwoo tosses me a handful of arrows, blade first.
It scrapes my hand but luckily I catch them.
"What do you want me to do with these?" I ask and the two of us sit on either side of the cave entrance.
