Around The Corner

14. fallen asleep

"You sleep yet?" Jihoon could feel the vibration as Soonyoung spoke.

"Not yet. Why?" Jihoon looked at him through his eyelashes.

"You wanna go somewhere?"

" At this time of the night?"

"Yes. I know a place."

With that, everything happened in a blur. Soonyoung and him were already wearing their jackets and out into the woods.

"You're not going to kill me or anything, right?" Jihoon said as they walked hand in hand.

Soonyoung chuckled. " Not that I intended to, Princess." He walked with one hand holding flash light and the other holding Hoon's hand.

After a while, they finally reached the cabin. A small, two stored, cosy one.

"Wow." Jihoon whispered.

"Don't worry. Its kinda private, so no one comes here." Jihoon was in awe but narrowed his eyes at Soonyoung's comment.

"And how did you get the access?"

" I have my charm." Soonyoung said, unlocking the cabin door.

From inside, it was aesthetically pleasing. A small living is attached to a kitchen. They walked up, which was a bedroom with the bathroom attached. The bed was placed almost at the centre with a glass ceiling, providing a clear view of the stars in the sky.

" Want a beer?" Soonyoung said to a awestruck Jihoon. Jihoon looked at Soonyoung, who was taking beer out of the minifridge and nodded. Soonyoung then opened the balcony area, which was covered with the grasses. Real grasses on the balcony. Jihoon mood was officially elevated to cloud nine.

Soonyoung and Jihoon were both lying on their back, their beer cans beside them. Jihoon's eyes were closed as tiny grass strands tickled his back. The stars were shining down on them, the moon nowhere to be found. He opened his eyes momentarily, his hand reaching up for the tiny fireballs in his sight, acting as if he could stroke them. He smiled contently, breathing in deeply into the fresh air before closing his eyes again.

Mixing wine with beer might not have been a good idea. He knew he would be feeling like hell in the morning, but he was also sure how he felt like he was in heaven right that moment.

He heard shuffling to his right, opening one eye to see what was going on.

Soonyoung opened his eyes, his gaze meeting with the stars once. He suddenly noticed how tired he had been. He had fallen asleep right there and now awakened by shuffling of the grass.

He turned his head to his left, looking straight into Jihoon’s dark eyes.

As soon as Jihoon realised he had been caught staring, he looked away, an adorable pink hue flushing his cheeks. Soonyoung smiled again, not even remotely trying to hide the fact that he was lost in Jihoon’s face, examining every inch.

“Stop it,” Jihoon said, looking really embarrassed. His face was red due to drinking and now of embarrassment.

Soonyoung smirked, “Stop what?”

“Stop staring at me.” Jihoon glanced over at Soonyoung briefly before averting his eyes to the grass on his right, turning his head away from Soonyoung.

Soonyoung pouted, wanting to look at Jihoon’s face some more, but before they could say or do anything, it started pouring.

They both ran inside the cabin. Both have wet patches all over their clothes. They looked at each other and laughed for a good minute.
