Stay - Yang Jungwon 양 정원

I was scrolling on my phone, watching tiktoks on my private account. Jake and Sunoo were both asleep on the actual bed while Jungwon and I were both still awake. Despite filming all day for the En-o'clock episode, I wasn't really that tired. Maybe it was all the coffee I had today.

"Love?" Jungwon scooted closer to me, leaning his head in my shoulder.

"Hm?" I tilted my phone so he could watch the TikTok I was looking at. I was distracted when I saw a TikTok, "Oh my god! We should do this!" It was a tiktok showing a homemade pizza in the shape of a bear.

Jungwon chuckled, "That is pretty cute. Chae, you brought a second swim suit, right?"

I nodded, "I did yeah, are we swimming tomorrow again?" I frowned, I really didn't want to wash my hair again. "I just washed my hair today though..."

"You know I'm still bitter about you cheating for the shower," Jungwon hummed.

I laughed. Earlier we had a competition to see who could hold their breaths the longest. The top three could shower first since there were three showers on the property. But since I lost first, I figured I would just go and take one of the showers. The directors had shown me the film of their reactions when I came out of the shower. And each of their faces were absolutely priceless.

"Hey, if I had gone after you, I would have been waiting half an hour!" I pointed out. "I only took fifteen, because of washing my hair."

Jungwon rolled his eyes and just kissed my cheek, "Well, I was gonna ask if you wanted to go swimming again. But if your hair means that much..."

I looked at him, "Swimming? At this hour? It's two in the morning," I whispered.

"I'm boreddddd!" Jungwon complained, burying his head in the crook of my neck. "It's not like you're sleeping any time soon." He grumbled. His arm draped over my waist.  His thumb rubbing small circles underneath my shirt.

I set my phone down, "What about the cameras?" I asked hesitantly.

"There aren't any cameras outside. It's only inside the house," Jungwon said quietly. That's when I realized there was still a camera in this room. "And they can't pick up on sound anyways. We don't have our mics on," he reminded me, reading my mind. "Now, can we go swimming? Please?" Even though it was dark, I could tell he was pouting.

"Just us two?" I looked at Jake and Sunoo who were literally knocked out cold. They were always the ones who fell asleep first.

Jungwon nodded, "Yeah. Some actual vacation time, without being filmed." Okay, now that he mentioned that, it did seem enticing. "We haven't had any like... couple time in a while,"

I sighed. I really didn't want to shower again. But... I did want to go at the same time. "Okay, we can go, but I'm putting my hair up. So no putting my head under the water," I warned, pointing a finger at him.

"You literally shoved me into the water when it was all eight of us, Chae."

"You want me to go with you or not?"

"I love you," Jungwon said quickly, hurrying to give me a small kiss. "Now can we go now, please?"

I chuckled, "Okay, let me get my swim suit. And don't wake any of them up." It wasn't that the members be mad if we swam without them, the teasing would just be endless.

"If they complain I'll pull my leader card, it's okay," Jungwon said as we both got up.

When I came out of the bathroom, Jungwon was already in the living room. He was wearing something similar to earlier this afternoon. Except he wasn't wearing leggings for the cameras sake. I laughed at the way his jaw dropped when he noticed me, "Wait! This one's so much cuter!"
