As they sat together, the weight of their conversation still lingering in the air, Jeongin gently squeezed y/n's hand. "Why don't we go for a walk near the beach?" he suggested.

I looked up, the tension in my shoulders easing at his words. I nodded, a small smile forming on my lips. "That sounds nice," I agreed, feeling a sense of relief at the thought of the calming ocean view.

Jeongin helped me up from the bed, and we made their way to the door, hand in hand. As we walked towards the beach, Jeongin kept his fingers intertwined, his thumb gently stroking the back of my hand.

As we arrived at the beach, we slipped off our shoes and walked along the shore, the cool sand beneath our feet and the gentle waves lapping at their ankles.

As we walked, I was talking about my life in Seoul, the city I live in. Suddenly felt a splash of water on my leg, interrupting my thoughts. I turned to see Jeongin with a mischievous grin, his eyes sparkling with playful intent.

"Hey!" she exclaimed, laughing as she splashed him back, sending droplets of water flying through the air.

Jeongin chuckled and dodged her splash, then waded a little deeper into the water, his playful grin widening. "Is that all you've got?" he teased, splashing her again, this time a little harder.

Y/n shrieked, making Jeongin laugh even harder. She gathered her hands together and splashed a large wave of water in his direction, drenching him completely. Jeongin gasped, momentarily stunned by the onslaught.

"That's it," he declared, pulling his shirt off of him and throwing it somewhere in the sand. Revealing his toned abs then with a quick move, he took her arm and pulled her closer to him, then effortlessly lifted her over his shoulder.

"Jeongin! What are you doing?" y/n yelled, her laughter mingling with her protests as he carried her deeper into the water. She could feel the cool waves lapping against her as he waded further in.

Jeongin's laughter joined hers, a warm, joyful sound that echoed across the beach. "You asked for it!" he replied, his voice filled with amusement.

When they were both waist-deep in the water, he gently set her down, holding her close to make sure she kept her balance. Their laughter subsided as they looked at each other.

The moonlight reflected off the water, casting a soft glow over them. Jeongin brushed a strand of wet hair from y/n's face. His touch was gentle, and his eyes were full of affection as he leaned in closer. She could feel the warmth of his breath against her skin, her heart racing in anticipation.

Jeongin's gaze locked onto hers, the playful spark in his eyes replaced by a deeper, more intense emotion. He cupped her face in his hands, his thumbs softly caressing her cheeks. "You make everything feel right," he said.

Before y/n could respond, Jeongin closed the small distance between them, his lips capturing hers in a tender, heartfelt kiss. It was slow and sweet. The world seemed to fade away, leaving only the two of them, wrapped in each other's warmth.

Y/n's arms slipped around his neck, pulling him closer as she melted into the kiss. She could feel the steady beat of his heart against her own, their connection deepening with each passing second. The cool water swirled around them, but all she could focus on was the softness of his lips and the overwhelming sense of belonging she felt in his embrace.

Jeongin's fingers tangled in her slightly wet hair, his kiss growing more passionate, yet still gentle and loving. He poured all his feelings into that kiss, hoping to convey everything words couldn't express. When they finally pulled apart, both were breathless, their foreheads resting against each other.

"I love you, y/n," Jeongin said softly, his voice filled with sincerity. Y/n's heart swelled with emotion, tears glistening in her eyes. "I love you too, Jeongin," she replied. Making a small smile appear on his face and they stood there, wrapped in each other's arms.

Eventually, the coolness of the night air began to seep into my bones, and I realized just how wet and cold my clothes were. I shivered, the damp fabric clinging to my skin, making me feel even colder. Reluctantly, I pulled away from Jeongin, and we began to wade back to the shore.

As we stepped onto the beach, I wrapped my arms around myself, trying to ward off the chill. Meanwhile Jeongin being a ghost he was dry not even a minute after getting out. He's always so perceptive, noticed my discomfort. "Come here," he said, taking my arm and pulling me closer to him. "The wet clothes are making you cold." He gently took the ends of my shirt and lifted it over my head, peeling it off my shivering body.

I stood there, feeling the cool night air against my bare skin, my bra the only thing covering my upper half. Jeongin's eyes widened slightly, a flush creeping up his cheeks. He quickly averted his gaze, clearly flustered. "I-I'm sorry," he stammered, his voice betraying his embarrassment. "I just didn't want you to get sick."

I couldn't help but smile at his reaction. "It's okay, Jeongin," I said softly, trying to reassure him. "Thank you for looking out for me." I said and leaned in to kiss him.

He pulled back and swallowed hard, his eyes flicking back to meet mine briefly before looking away again. I couldn't help but let out a slight giggle seeing him so flustered.

"Come on, let's go home now," I said, taking his hand and giving it a reassuring squeeze.
