"Ppssssttt!"
"Pssst!"
"You two! Wake up!!"

"Mhmmm."

This conversation wakes me. As I open my eyes my head starts pounding. So . Hard.

"Ah!" I wail as It hits me.
"Shh , shh lie down." I feel a cold hand on my bare arm as Tae pushes me back down.

"She's got a bad hangover."
Tae whispers to whoever is in the doorway.

"A what!?" Mrs Hyung squeals

"Shhh!" Tae hushes her.

"You drove home last night!!"

"I know, I know, but we're fine omma okay?"

"But- oh for god sake." She tuts. "Why don't you have a hangover."

"I don't think she's ever had that much before, I'm a bit more used to it."

"Oh." Her dissapointment fills the room.

"We'll just sleep it off for today okay?"

"Right. Well, give me a shout if you need anything."

I hear the door shut and I groan.
Tae's arm wraps around my waist.

"Chunja." His deep voice echoes in my pounding head.

"Mhm-what." I huff.

"You got sick like - five times last night."

I furrow my brow. I don't remember any of it.

"W-hat? Really?"

"Yep, I stayed up waiting after the third time."

I tut to myself. "I'm so sorry, you must be - so tired."

"Hah, well better I be tired then you choke on your own vomit."

I laugh weakly.
"We'll just sleep today, okay?"

"Mhm- no- no! Tae its like our last day."

"Shhh- shhh, we have three days left okay? Shh." Tae calms me as I try to sit up and my head rings.

I lie dow as Tae snuggles into my neck. I can tell his head is hurting too , he just manages it better.

The hours fly by as I twist and turn in Tae's arms.
"Too hot." I complain as a hot sweat forms on me. Tae throws the cover off.

"Too cold."
Tae pulls the covers back on.

"Too hot!"

This continues for several hours. Mrs Hyung brings in water and light snacks regularly and helps us eat them.

Brad pines for attention and we try settling him but like a crying baby he keeps whining.

"God I'm never having kids." I huff as he mews for attention.
Tae laughs in his sleep.

Its about 8pm when we feel better. We get out of bed and wander to the kitchen where Mr and Mrs Hyung greet and mock us.

We eat , TV and hover around until Tae's parents wander to sleep.

The TV crackles as the top 40 this week come on.
"Perfect - By Ed Sheeran, an English artist who has been gaining popularity these days, playing next." (Ok i know that song came out in like 2017 but not anymorenheheheh.)

Tae stands up and clears his throat as he holds his hand out to me.

"May I have this dance?" He asks in his English accent which makes me laugh.

"Yes." I smile up in response as my hand slides onto his and he glasps it.

His hand wraps around my waist as the other holds my arm out to the left. I let my free arm fall onto his shoulder.
We waltz around the free space in the kitchen. I giggle as Tae spins me unfer his arm.

He wraps me up in his arms after her twists me and we rock side to side to the music as his chin rests on my shoulder.

"Darling you look, perfect tonight."
Tae sings along to the lyrics perfectly in English.

"What does it mean?" 

"Darling you look perfect tonight." He translates for me. I smile. "Awhh."

"Well , I think thess pajamas look pretty exceptional." I smile.

"Me too." Tae laughs into my neck before he spins me back out.

He rolls me in once more and then bows me down. I laugh from my upside down throat as I stretch my neck back until I'm seeing the fridge upside down. He kisses my collar bones gently as the music ends.

He pulls me back up until our faces are inches apart. I look up at his beautiful brown eyes. I remember the only line I understood in the song as I look up at him.

'I see my future in your eyes'
