SpartAce: Eternal Love

The Calm before a Storm

JONG KOOK had never seen a more beautiful sight than the one in front of him right now.

The sun is already at its top but Jong Kook had no plan of getting off the bed. And so does the woman sleeping right next to him.

Ji Hyo is still asleep, sprawled onto her back with nothing but their shared blanket over her.

He is lying on his side, facing her direction just to stare at such natural beauty in front of him.

The sun is already hitting her milky skin but it doesn't seem to bother her. She is still breathing heavily, still fast asleep, with her mouth slightly opened.

His chest races as he remembers how hard he kissed those lips last night.

Then the flood of memories from last night comes stampeding in his mind, forming a smile across his face.

What they shared last night made him even more crazily in love with her. He feels like he had just fallen in love all over again that he doubt if he could ever leave her for even a minute.

All he wants to do is stick by her side like glue, literally.

Then she stirs. He waits. A few seconds later and her lids flutter open.

Her eyes fall on him as she rolls to her side, facing him. He couldn't help but smile at how blank she is right now. He knows well enough that her brain is still probably loading at the moment.

A minute later and she flinches, as if remembering something. Her eyes widen as she looks at him, and then she covers her face with the blanket.

He chuckles. "Good morning, love."

"O-Oppa.. " she stutters, peeking over the blanket she had covered up until her nose.

He teases her by pulling the blanket off her face. "What are you getting shy about? I saw everything last night."

Her hand automatically flies towards his head as she hits him. "Yah! " she snaps.

He chuckles and sits up.

"Yah! Yah! Yah! " she stops him as he attempts to get up.

He looks down at her. "What? " he asks. Her eyes are widen and quickly looks away from him. "You saw all of that last night." He teases.

He spots the blush appearing right in her cheeks and he couldn't help but laugh. Teasing her might become one of his hobbies.

"You'll be seeing that more often. You should get used to it." he adds.

She whines as she turns to the other side and burries herself within the covers.

His grin could not be taken off his face as he stands up and heads towards the bathroom laughing.

That smile never disappeared even when they check out of the hotel and board the plane back to Korea.

"Can you stop looking at me for even a second?", Ji Hyo tells him while they are in the plane.

He has his body twisted so that he could lean on his side to stare at Ji Hyo, his smile plastered on his face.

"I can't. " he says.

Even her uncomfortable expression makes her look cute, her eyes fluttering as she looks away, trying to ignore him.

How did he ever survive all those years without this girl in front of him? Now that he's staring at her, he thinks he'll probably die if this girl would ever leave him again.

He reaches his hand to cup the side of her face and make her turn to his direction. She meets his eyes, and he could see the glint in them that he could not probably see on anybody else's.
