Face The Sun - Sunghoon ✓

ℂ𝕙𝕒𝕡𝕥𝕖𝕣 16

I don't want to gooo !

I sit on my bed, suitcase nearly packed right after coming back from breakfast.

 - How was your first year here ? Ava lies down on Heejin's bed, facing me.

Well, I kind of liked it ? No I'm kidding, it was so good and I'm really happy to have met you. You know, I'm closer to some people here than my friends at school.

- You mean Sunghoon ? She grins.

Not only him. Heejin, you and the other girls in this house too. 

- I'm glad you liked it then. She smiles brightly and gets up to finish getting ready to leave.

- Girls ! You have 15 minutes to finish getting ready and come out ! We are leaving in 30 minutes !

Heejin and I are still not dressed so we start to scream and run everywhere to find our missing belongings to put them in our suitcase. Then we dress quickly, brush our teeth and wash our face just in time for us to go, all the other girls are already outside.

We are now standing outside the house, our suitcase beside us, all the others grouped together to leave.

- The week was too short ! I nod. Well, we'll come back next year. Bye bye dear house !

She closes the door with the keys and take it out the lock.

We turn around, go down the stairs with our big suitcases and hurry back to the group to give the key to Sungjung. Since we are the last ones, we leave directly towards the bus which takes us to the station. We put our suitcases in the trunk and get in the bus.

I sit in the middle of the bus, on the window side. Jiyun sits in front of me and Heejin in the left row, alone.

Sungjung told the boys to get on after we sat down so I now see the group of 7 moving among the seats. Heeseung sits next to Jiyun and Sunghoon sits next to me right after.

- Hey ! He kisses my cheek, making me melt.

Hey !

We put our seatbelts on and the last boys enter, including Inhyuck.

- Can I sit here ? He asks Heejin when he reaches her seat.

- Oh, uh... Yes, of course. She answers, throwing a quick glance at me.

I smile, happy for her.

The doors closed behind Sungjung and the bus drives off a few seconds later.

Sunghoon wraps his arm around mine and takes my hand while looking at his phone. I take mine and my earphones and put on some music. I only wear one, so I can talk to my boyfriend at the same time.

I rest my head on my hand, my elbow resting on the windowsill, looking at Sunghoon. Feeling my gaze on him, he turns off his phone and puts it in the back pocket of his pants. He also rests his head on his hand, his elbow on the armrest, looking in my direction. Like that, we look into each other's eyes, without exchanging a word. After what seems like a long minute, a smile appears on his lips. He puts his arm around my shoulders, takes my head and places it on his shoulder.

Oh dude, he's flirting.

He laughs and put his hand on my face.

- Shut up and sleep.

I act shocked and try to take his hand off my face.

Argh, stooop. Fine. I finally put my head back on his shoulder, his arm still around mine.

- Before you fall asleep, can you give me your other earphone. It isn't a question by the way.

I hand it to him and he puts it in his ear. He closes his eyes, puts his head on the back of the seat and starts playing with my hair.

The road to the train station was short so I couldn't fall asleep. 

We get off the bus, the earphones still in our ears and go to take our suitcases as the bus driver begins to take them out the trunk. When everyone has their suitcases, we enter the station and head to the platform after Sungjung has done what we need to do so we can go.

When the train arrives at the platform, we climb as best as we can through the narrow door. We enter a very empty carriage and sit down after placing our suitcases in the compartment provided.

I sit in a grouping of four seats facing each other with Sunghoon, Jay and Ni-ki and the group next to us is Jiyun, Heeseung, Heejin and Inhyuck. The other boys are sitting at the table behind ours. The journey will last more than three hours so I eat the lunch Sungjung gives us and sit comfortably to finally try to get a minimum of sleep.

I rest my head on my crossed arms on the table. I hear the others laughing and talking together as I drift off to sleep.

- Dahee, we'll be there in an hour. We thought you might want to be woken up. I hear Ni-ki in front of me, slowly shaking my arm.

I sit up and rub my eyes, the sun is beating through the train window.

Did I just sleep two hours straight ?

Jay nods.

- I thought we could share our phone numbers and maybe have a groupchat. We could all go out during the next holidays. He suggests.

Why not, I like that idea.

Ni-ki and Sunghoon agree and we start asking for the numbers we don't have. I take all the boys' numbers as well as the girls'. In about 5 minutes, the groupchat is already made. We finish the journey with a lot of laughs and nostalgia. I listen to the people talking, a smile plastered on my face.
