Your Lips Belong To Me

31: rendezvous

JEONGYEON

Nayeon kept dragging me somewhere, not that I'm complaining. But I thought we were going back to the party, remember when she said that people might be looking for us..? I assumed that we exit the room, to return back to our own families. It turns out I'm wrong. She seems to have other things on her mind.

The cold wind blows straight to our face as we reached the exit of our mansion. I immediately shivered at the sudden coldness that engulfs my body. I mean, who wouldn't get cold with this outfit? I'm literally just wearing a blazer and pants.

I looked at Nayeon's outfit and my eyes almost bulged out. 

"Hey let's go back and get you some blanket or jacket" Jeongyeon tugged at Nayeon's hand that is tightly gripping her own.

"What? Why?" Nayeon asked looking at her.

"What do you mean why? Aren't you cold?" Nayeon was just wearing a long, black, tight sleeveless dress that has a large slit at the right side. 

Why didn't I notice what she was wearing before?

I probably focused on her face too much...

"Give me your blazer then.." Nayeon suggested.

"Hell no! This is my only clothing. If I gave this to you, then I'll be naked!" Jeongyeon hugged her body like she's protecting it.

There's some unusual glint on Nayeon's eyes as she looked up at her. She could've sworn she saw her lips curved lightly like a smirk, it only lasted for a few seconds. After she blinked her eyes, Nayeon's face looked back to her normal.

"I'm fine, Jeong. Besides, we managed to get this far. I don't want to go back anymore" Nayeon replied and continued on dragging her again. 

Since it's night time, their surrounding is dark. Added to it, their mansion is in a really secluded place, so there's not much light. 

But after a few minutes of walking, she finally recognized where they are headed.

"What are we doing in a parking lot?" Jeongyeon walked beside Nayeon now.

"To have fun!" Nayeon chirped. 

Nayeon directed her towards an expensive car. She can't identify the color because it is really dark. She doesn't even know why there's no light, there's always an open bulb at the parking for precautionary measures. 

Was it broken?

I didn't notice that Nayeon had already opened the door for me, not until she nudged me. I wordlessly entered the passenger seat, and she did the same, entering the driver's seat. I inhaled and smelled the familiar perfume. It smells so much like Im Nayeon.

"You went here all by yourself?" I asked Nayeon.

"Mhm yes. It would be bothersome to drive all the way to my parent's house when I can just drive myself up here" 

Nayeon moved closer to me and grabbed the seat belt, locking it on the seat. 

"Thanks..." I replied with a small smile, trying to calm my nerves down. This always happen to me whenever she's extremely close. And yes, I know it's not normal at all. But, I'd rather lie to myself than admit it. 

I made myself believe that things would go away their own when you don't acknowledge it.

So, ignore it is. 

It's nothing new to me, anyway. I've been doing this ever since high school. No, it's not easy of course. But, I manage to get used to it as time pass. Like a habit I mutter to myself.
