Chapter 12: beach and whirlpool

------------✧♡✧-------------

"You really have a nice voice." he complimented me, which made me blush a little.

"No one was supposed to hear that," I quickly stowed it in my bag.

"What are you doing here?". He asked, nodding to my tablet on the sandy ground.

"Ah um.". I quickly picked it up and wiped the dirt off the display. "Actually, I wanted to draw something, but somehow I don't really have an idea.". "Currently, I'm kind of lacking inspiration.".

"Can I sit down?" he asked, and I nodded hesitantly. "Sure."

"You could draw the moon?" suggested Heeseung, but I just shook my head. "I'm more into drawing persons instead of scenery, you know.

I was a little taken aback when Hee scooted a little closer to me. "You could draw me.". He posed comically, which made me laugh.

"Maybe I'll take you up on that offer someday," I giggled, placing my tablet on my lap.

"So, what are you doing here?", I finally asked him, as I was indeed curious how he had found me on this part of the beach.

He fixed his hair with his hands. "Basically, after you said that walking on the beach could be really healing, I used to do it when I had a bad day.

"So you had a bad day today?", I glanced over at him cautiously.

He shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know. You probably don't care, but the training wasn't good today and I'm just not sure if I'm the best person to be captain."

"I can tell you with one hundred percent probability that you are better than Sunghoon."

"You sure? I mean, I don't even know that. He's stricter and more demanding to everyone and says openly when someone is bad."

"That may be, but can he also be nice? No! Definitely no! And that's more important.".

"Ah and I think I should apologize for the fuss today during your training. I never thought Sunghoon could escalate like that and beat him up.".

"He did WHAT?", Heeseung looked at me in shock. "I don't know about anything because I left early!".

I looked at him in disbelief. I expected news like that to get around quickly in the boys' group. "Yeah, I saw my brother punch Jake in the face out of nowhere and then I ran to them".

"Oh fuck... Is he okay?", he asked me.

"I don't know. Probably?".

"But how? And why? Sunghoon has never hit anyone, especially none of his friends".

I hesitated. The words in my head fidgeted and couldn't really string together into a decent sentence.

"Probably because you and Jake are like a thing now?". He spoke out what I was most afraid of.

"NO, NO! We aren't dating or something.", I quickly clarified. "Jake probably hates me, starting from today.".

I don't know why I'm even talking about this. Especially with Heeseung. On the one hand, I feel super intimidated as soon as he appears in front of me, but on the other hand, you can talk to him very well and it's extremely easy to slip into deep topics. And I know damn well that I shouldn't feel like this.

"I've been out here a pretty long time now. I don't know about you, but I'm starting to get cold.". I admitted and stroked along the goosebumps on my arms. "Yeah you're right. Maybe we should think about heading home.", he agreed, and got up from the sandy soil first.
