DURNING THE EARLY MORNING HOUR OF KULAR, when every soul was sitll sound asleep...one soul remained wide awake. Boreum was still wide awake, located in the main area of The Midnight's headquarters....deep in thought.
It had been almost month since Boreum had spoke to Hyerim and now...everything was silent...to silent. She was starting to grow impatient with waiting around, waiting for something to happen. It's been -in total- three months since Hyerim had first left for the palace...and yet not a single word of either the prince or king being killed.
A sigh frustration leaves Boreum's mouth, as she grabs both of her daggers (from the table sitting in front of her)...wanting to take things into her hands. But, just before she has the chance of leaving, Boreum hears footsteps coming from outside. She hopes of the person being Hyerim...but alas it wasn't, instead a familiar tall figure steps the door. "Mingi?" She questions "What are you doing here? Where is Hyerim?" Boreum continues to question. Mingi smiles at her questions before speaking "That is the exact reason I'm here....to tell that your precious, Hyerim is a traitor of The Midnight."
Boreum feels anger raising inside at Mingi's sudden claims "And...And why do you say that?" She asks through gritted teeth. "While you're here worrying about the mission...Hyerim is too busy gazing into the Prince's eyes, to even be bothered to do the mission." Mingi rants "Your precious Hyerim let her emotions get in the way of the mission."
The early morning gleams through a slit in the curtains, landing perfectly on the sleeping girls face. She stirs trying to move out of the ray of sun, but no matter how much she was trying...she couldn't. Hyerim opens her eyes and at first it looks like she's in her own room...but once her eyes had finally adjusted to the light, she realizes that she actually isn't in her room.
Just as Hyerim is about to sit up, an arm snakes around her waist (stopping her from getting up); a small gasp escapes her, but she doesn't try to fight the person. "Seonghwa." Hyerim spoke, rubbing the resdiual sleep from her eyes. The still half asleep prince hums in reasponse, as one of his hands travel up her frame to grab one of her hands, resting his head on the back of her shoulder. "We need to get up before a maid finds us like this." She insisted, but Seonghwa remains unmoving, only pulling Hyerim closer to him.
Hyerim breaths out a sigh, begining to feel annoyed. "Seonghwa...please." She begs (trying her best not to sound annoyed), the Prince loosens his grip and Hyerim is finally able to get out of the bed.
Once she is out of bed, she goes up to each one of the windows, opening each of the curtains (letting more light inside). But with the last set of curtains Hyerim opens, she finds herslef admiring the gorgeous sunrise. She had also watched sunirses for her make shift home, but there was something about watching it from the palace...that made it a completely different experience; Hyerim would love to wake up to this every morning.
A few moments pass when Hyerim feels a pair of arms wrap around her waist. She smiles as she moved her arms atop of Seonghwa's, relaxing in his embrace "I've always loved watching the sunrise." Hyerim started. The prince hums in response, setting his head in the crook of her neck. "When my parents were still alive....we would go on the roof top of our home and watch the sunrise; almost every morning....that's what we would do." She says, her smile remaining as she recalled good memories from when she was younger.
Seonghwa smiles against the skin of her neck, before placing a light kiss on that exact spot "Then maybe I can take you to one of the watchtowers...and we can watch it together." Hyerim's heart skips a beat at his words. She spins around his arms and smiles at him "Really?" She confirms, he nods and her smiles grows wider. "I-I would really love that." She says, excitement bubbling inside of her.
The prince feels warmth blossom in his chest, at the girls excitment and the way her eyes lit up. Another smile forms on his lips before leaning down and placing a chaste kiss on her lips...catching Hyerim a little off guard. A breathy chuckle leaves her mouth "What was that for?" She asks him. He shrugs slightly before answering her "I have just realized that I love seeing you excited." Nothing but love and adortion fill his eyes. Heat riases to Hyerim's face at the Prince's words "Well...I-I-" She stutters out of flusteredness.
Seonghwa smiles once more before leaning down again, connecting their lips for a second time but for a longer duration. Once again Hyerim is caught off guard, but once she resgistered what was happening she immediatley responds to his usual slow and delicate pace. Hyerim's arms migrate around his nape, while Seonghwa's tighten around her waist...pulling her body closer to his.
But then the moment is ceased by a knock. The pair flinch at the sudden sound as they pull away, but remain close. Then a voice is heard from the other side "Your Highness, breakfast is ready." Seonghwa clears his throat "Yes, I'll be down there in twenty minutes." He calls back, before turning back to Hyerim. "You should probably go, before they find out that you're not in your chambers." He suggest, moving his arms from her waist (while she does the same). "Yes...I will see you at breakfast." She says, before walking over to the doors.
When Hyerim is finally out of the prince's chambers, her heart is still pounding widly against her ribcage. It's as if she could still feel the gostly touches of where his arms were...as if she could still feel the faint sensation of his lips of hers. Hyerim then realizes she is in too deep and she can't go back now.
