Smile • Kim Namjoon

Chapter 6

-Day of the field trip-

"Did you remember to bring the marshmallows, graham crackers, and chocolate?" Hoseok said, taking a seat next to me on the bus.

I nodded, "Of course."

Namjoon was the last to enter on the bus. He was panting and covered in sweat. But the thing that really caught my eye was the fact that he wasn't wearing a sweater, but a tank top and shorts.

"Namjoon!" I called out and waved my hand.

He looked up and ran towards me. Hoseok moved to the last chair and I moved to the middle so Namjoon could sit down.

Everyone's eyes was on Namjoon.

How his sweat made his skin glisten, his slightly long styled hair, and perfect dimples.

"Is there something on my face?" He looked at me and crossed his arms.

I shook my head, "uh n-no! Not at all!"

Namjoon chuckled, "I was in a rush so I couldn't put on my sweatshirt." He sighed and looked at me.

My face was a light shade of pink.

His arms were so toned and his skin was so tan and soft. How could someone not stare?

Hoseok placed his earphones over his ears and closed his eyes.

He looked pretty annoyed so I decided to let him be.

The bus began moving and everyone began conversing with each other.

I was quite nervous about the ride there. The road that the bus was taking was the road that I had gotten into an accident on with my uncle.

Of course, he didn't survive. I had trauma and nightmares because of that. Only Namjoon and Hoseok knew about it but they must've forgotten since it was a while back when I had told them.

Hoseok fell asleep and Namjoon was in a daze, looking at his phone.

I gulped and clenched my fist together as the bus took a turn into the street.

I shut my eyes close, hoping it would end soon.

At my surprise a warm hand was placed over mine and I was suddenly calm.

I opened my eyes and looked down to see Namjoons palm over mine, "Does this help?" He whispered, not averting his eyes from his phone.

"Yeah..." you smiled, "It's helps a lot." I was touched that Namjoon remembered.

He held my hand in his and stroked the back of my hand with his thumb.

I missed this. I missed his warmth, his touch, his sweet voice, but mostly the smile that made you feel happier inside.

I will make you smile again...

>Namjoon POV<

It was about an hour into the ride and she had fallen asleep on my shoulder.

I tried pulling my hand away from hers but she just held on tighter.

I sighed and stayed in the uncomfortable position I was in.

It was something about her that made me go crazy or get super protective.

Although I drifted away from her I still remembered her secrets she had told me, her favorite and least favorite foods, her silly habits, and the important days she would mark down.

This moment where she's so close to me was so rare, I didn't want it to end.
