heaven on earth || a hyunjin ff

We were an hour into the trip, and everyone was fast asleep except for me because I simply cannot sleep in vehicles, even if it's a spacious RV.

Somi's head was resting on my shoulder, a blanket pulled over her. Hyunjin was hugging a pillow, sinking into his hoodie while Felix rested his head on the armrest beside him.

Hanni and Minji hugged each other to sleep, and their limbs were tangled together on the queen bed in the back while they shared the fluffy comforter with each other.

Han and Minho were sitting on the couch across from me, their heads turned the opposite direction from each other as they dozed off. It took every muscle in my body not to shove them together.

Chan of course, was still driving and drinking his americano which I had asked him to share with me, but he refused.

Yunjin sat in the passenger seat, asleep with her sunglasses on.

"Chan, can we make a stop at the gas station?" I broke the silence that had been floating in the air for an entire hour.

"Sure. Make it quick, though. We want to get to Jeju early enough to explore a bit." he agreed, switching lanes.

I nodded and leaned back into the couch, watching Hyunjin sleep soundly. His lips were slightly parted and his sleeves were pulled over his palms. It was cute.

I tilted my head a bit, observing him carefully. I could probably watch him sleep all day. He looked pretty doing anything.

Somi woke up and took a big breath, stretching her arms up and hitting her hand on the cabinet above us in the process.

"Shit—" she cursed under her breath, wincing and rubbing her wrist.

I just laughed at her stupidity.

"It's not funny." she whined, slapping me lazily on the shoulder.

"It kind of is." I snickered, turning away from her to avoid her possible smacking me straight in the face.

"You little—"

"We're here!" Chan called from the drivers seat, pulling into one of the parking spaces and setting the vehicle into parking mode.

Hyunjin drowsily awoke from his sleep, his eyelids only half-opened and his messy hair revealed when his hoodie fell off his head.

"Birds would lay eggs in your hair." Somi pointed at him, laughing hysterically while Hyunjin's face stayed completely serious.

"Not funny? Okay." she cleared her throat once she realized he wasn't laughing along with her.

"Where are we?" his voice came out raspy.

"Um, I asked Chan if we could make a stop at the gas station because I'm hungry." I got up from my seat and pulled my converses on.

"Oh, okay. I need to use the restroom." he raked his hand through his hair to untangle it.

Hanni walked out of the master bedroom in the back, but I didn't see Minji follow her.

"Where's Minji?" I asked her while shrugging the sash of my purse on my shoulder.

"She's still sleepy. She asked me to get her some snacks." Hanni replied, checking her hair in the rear mirror before tucking both sides behind her ears.

I just nodded slowly in response.

"I'll just stay in here. Hanni, get me something too." Somi demanded, pulling out her phone from her pocket.

"Okay, you preppy little princess." Hanni mocked, making a bitter face which Somi didn't see.

I tried my best to hold back my laughter.
