"beomgyu you have 2 minutes to get your ass in the car". choi soobin, a senior in college sighed as he watched his young friend run around their dorm, still not done with his packing apparently. he sighed as he glanced at his watch, 10:23 am. 

yep, they were officially late to pick up yeonjun.

"i'm almost done hyung! please give me like, uh.. 5 minutes! i'm searching for my headphones have you seen them? and oh! wait what about my socks i swear i kept them in the bed yesterday but probably forgot to- ow! why the fuck is this table here?!"

that was choi beomgyu, a sophomore in the same college that soobin went to. usually, he was a pretty fun loving and cheerful person but the stress of packing an entire bag for a weeks worth of travelling in 30 minutes had made him cranky and irritated. he glared at the table and flipped it off by showing it the middle finger.

"okay.. i've got all my bags and my keys? yeah got that too. yes i'm all set." soobin turned towards beomgyu who was rummaging through the laundry basket. "okay beomgyu see you in 8 days!" 

"wait what? don't leave me behind i'm done! hey! wait up!" beomgyu rushed toward the elder who was now locking the door of their shared dorm. after a short walk to the car park, they finally made it inside, much to beomgyu's displeasure. soobin didn't spare him a glance as he connected his phone to the gps and entered the location to yeonjuns dorms. he had recently graduated college and was now was attending a university.

beomgyu huffed and crossed his arms across his chest. it wasn't that he wasn't excited for this trip. but why was soobin and maybe yeonjun, to some extent; why were they so damn controlling? 

'aargh! why can't i meet someone who gets me? i want someone to understand me for who i am.. not just happy exciteable choi beomgyu'

soobin glanced over to his side. beomgyu seemed deep in thought, staring out of the window. he frowned slightly, beomgyu had been quiet since the start of the trip. had soobin said something that made him angry? had he overdone it with his teasing? beomgyu had always been a sensitive person, shit he should've known..

"hyung i think we're here..". beomgyu's voice broke soobin out of his thoughts. yeah.. the view confirmed that they had reached yeonjun's dorms. he reached for his phone and dialler the elder's number. it rang 4 times before yeonjun picked up.

"bitch what took you so long" 

soobin sighed for around the 30th time that  day. first beomgyu who was acting like a kid and now yeonjun who also wanted to push his limits. what did he do to deserve this?

"yeonjun hyung! we're downstairs! i can see you from your window" soobin stuck his head out of the car window and saw yeonjun, staring at beomgyu who was now waving to him excitedly. he glanced at soobin who felt a tightness in his chest as he noticed yeonjun's pretty eyes make their way to him. 

beomgyu shuffled in the front seat as he saw yeonjun approaching  the car. his hyung always road shotgun.. would he be fine with the backseat for today? 

"move your ass i'm here." beomgyu rolled his eyes. of course, this was choi yeonjun we were talking about. strong, proud and conceited; he was the eldest out of the three friends. "that didn't stop him from treating his juniors any different though.."  beomgyu thought as he was dragged away to the backseat of the car. he let out a small yawn.. damn too much packing was making him sleepy.

"hey yeonjun. ready to go?" "of course! lets get this started"

⏱

a few hours into the trip, soobin glanced in the backseat of the car. beomgyu was sleeping, leaning on the window with his mouth wide open as he snored. to soobins side, yeonjun had headphones on and was staring out of the window admiring the pretty meadows that were now seen. soobin chuckled softly which caused yeonjun to glance up at him.

"what's wrong?" "nothing its fine.." "hmmm.. beomgyu's sleeping right? maybe ill get some rest too.. when's our next stop?" soobin looked at the map which showed that they had almost 4 hours before they reached their destination. "maybe we'll stop in the next half hour or so, keep your eye out for a gas station will ya?" "yeah okay"

yeonjun checked his phone. the inn they were booking was supposed to be a quiet relaxing place. located close to the sea, it was known for its calming ambience and home style cottage rooms. 'what's the fun in that? won't it get too boring just lazing around all day and just looking at the sea? hmph..' 

yeonjun lived his life to the fullest, always. he had no time to lose. a relaxing vacation? pfft.. yeah that wasn't gonna happen. his face fell as he remembered soobin when they started making plans for the trip. "i'd like to go somewhere relaxing maybe? aww come on don't look at me like that jun! who knows.. maybe you could use some rest too.."  no. yeonjun didn't fucking need rest. then why had he even agreed to come on this trip?

because he could never say no to soobin and his enticing smile

the car skidded to a halt as the brakes screeched. yeonjun was pushed ahead slightly and soobin leaned back to check on beomgyu again. he hadn't stirred since the last time soobin had seen him. he was probably tired from school and his personal activities. the elder knew for a  fact that beomgyu hadn't slept well in a few days. 'that kid works himself too hard', he thought; shaking his head. the fact that he had screamed at him this morning made soobin feel even worse. 'whatever. this ain't the time to get all sad'; he thought while turning to face yeonjun.

"jun you go up to the shop to get snacks.. i'll wake up beomgyu and pay  for the gas. just be here in like uh.. 5-7 minutes?" "you got it. does beomgyu want anything. he looks kinda pale.." yeonjun frowned. "uh yeah just get him a juice box or something he's fine"

⏱

beomgyu woke up to the sound of soft rain. he looked outside the window to see that it was already dark. 'its evening already? how long did i sleep for?' "gyu you're awake?"

he groaned softly as the small light flooded his vision. clutching his head in his hands, he turned to meet yeonjun's worried gaze. "yeah.. what time is it?" "almost 7:30 we're reaching in a few minute. do you want something to eat?" "no thanks i'm good"

yeonjun hummed in appreciation as the view of the beach passed by them. it was still pretty cloudy, so you couldn't see anything outside but the sound of the rain along with the waves was pretty comforting. beomgyu pushed his face against the window and stared at the sea. small shadows could be seen, nothing else.

"we're here" soobin announced as he parked his car near a ledge. straight up ahead, there were a few lights; twinkling in the stormy evening. beomgyu assumed that to be the house they were staying in as faint outlines could be seen. "yeonjun do you have an umbrella?".

yeonjun scoffed at the younger's question. "soobin do i look like someone to carry around and umbrella. of course i don't have one. i didn't think it was going to rain!"

soobin sighed, yet again, and turned the keys. the car shut down with a soft click. the three of them just stayed there for a while, until the storm was supposed to die down. nobody said a word to each other, they just sat there and enjoyed the silence. after a few minutes, the sound of the rain became fainter and finally, the storm was over.

"let's get our bags c'mon"

beomgyu shivered slightly as the cold night air hit him when he opened the door of the car. the smell of the rain was evident as the mist settled down, causing fog. beomgyu squinted just enough to catch sight of a small house, which had a tall lamp in front of it.

"guess this is it then..". yeonjun kept his bags down on the floor and looked up to the house. it was quite small compared to the rest of the inns and looked like it could accommodate around 7 to 8 people including the ones who worked there. although it wasn't very well known, th people who did go there never failed to sing it's praises.

beomgyu gulped. sure, it would be a hassle staying with his annoying hyungs for 8 days but as annoying as they were, he wouldn't be here with anyone else.

'i wonder what will happen in these 8 days'
