The camera focused on the pair as Ji-eun positioned her tired body onto a beach towel covered with palm trees. Everyone was silent with anticipation as the actors got ready to begin and jumped into action with the directors call.
"So you're telling me that poor little innocent Mina has already kissed a guy?" Jaehyun teased, his eyes glimmering with enjoyment.
"Of course I have" she lied, collapsing back onto her towel and pushing the sunglasses away from her nose to avoid his gaze. "I'm not a child"
Jaehyun sighed looking out at the water for a minute before returning his gaze to Mina, his affection towards her clear in the way the corners of his mouth upturned as she shuffled uncomfortably on the sand. A look of glee returned to his face as he spotted a half-full bottle of water resting next to her arm, silently reaching for it and grabbing it.
Mina turned to look at him for a moment, unfazed by his movement but shot up from her position on the sand as a pool of water was poured over her head. Jaehyun chuckled with glee, jumping to his feet as she reached for the plastic bottle, screaming in annoyance.
Her sunglasses fell to the ground as she stretched for the bottle and Jaehyun looked down at her, his face filled with amusement as she wobbled on her tip-toes to reach him. Mina quickly leant forward to reach his grasp but soon lost her balance, wobbling to the ground in a pile on top of him.
Jaehyun looked back at her, dazed for a moment as she lay flat on his chest and Mina quickly stole the bottle from his hand, grinning triumphantly at him as she waved it teasingly in his face.
Jaehyun simply smiled at her, chest rising as a chuckle escaped his throat and Mina looked down at him with a victorious smile. She continued to wave the bottle at him but stopped suddenly as he darted his head forward, breaking the distance between the couple as his warm lips met with hers.
He grinned against her lips as she let out a shocked breath, eyes flickering shut momentarily as he leaned closer, but after only a few seconds he pulled away from her.
"Now you don't need to lie" he smiled, glancing down at the girl who's face flashed pink with embarrassment.
He laughed, faking pain as Mina hit his chest and pushed him away from her, cheeks still a shade of pink.
"And cut!" A sharp voice interrupted the pair and they pulled away from each other, separating their entwined bodies as they sat up from the sand.
Chanyeol adjusted the collar of his shirt, letting out a short cough as he lifted himself from the ground. Ji-eun simply watched as he strode across the warm sand towards the director, feeling an all too familiar patter in her chest as she adjusted her dress and followed after him.
She ambled over to where the director was enthusiastically chatting to Chanyeol, trying to stop herself glancing up at him as she reached his side.
"That was perfect" the director yelled from his chair, rewatching the footage quickly before glancing at his watch. "The sun will start setting soon so you can go rest while we set up for the night shoot" he declared. He shot a piercing glance at the rest of the crew and they quickly began packing things away to move to the next filming site.
"Okay, thank you" Ji-eun replied, turning to smile quickly at her co-star, however her lips curled downwards as she realised he had already left her side, striding across the pale ground with a trail of people following behind him.
———
Ji-Eun's pale blue dress brushed her feet as she entered the night breeze, sending a trail of goosebumps through her body as she trailed behind Sehun to the next filming site.
"You were good this morning" he complimented, lifting his head from his phone briefly as he gave her a reassuring smile. "This shoot should only be short so I wouldn't worry" he added and Ji-eun returned a thankful grin.
She rubbed her arms quickly in an attempt to warm her body, shocked by how much the temperature had dropped within a few hours and glanced up at the star-specked sky. As she followed Sehun round a corner they reached a much busier area, filled with people as they wandered home through the streets.
In the distance she spotted a familiar group of people setting up cameras inside a bus, onlookers watching with interest as they loaded camera equipment through it's narrow aisle.
Sehun guided her through the crowds of people and she smiled apologetically as she pushed past them towards the front. The crew were all rushing around busily, setting up the scene, so she wandered over to a wobbly table with a fold-up chair resting beside it, taking a seat against a nearby building.
She spent a few minutes watching them absentmindedly but turned back to the crowd as they began muttering loudly amongst themselves, seeing them part as a group of people pushed to the front. At the back of the group she recognised her co-star with a familiar polite smile plastered across his face as he waved at a few people.
His hair was messily pushed back and he wore a white linen shirt with a few buttons undone. A denim jacket lay neatly across his shoulders and Ji-eun shot him a jealous glance as she looked down at her own bare arms. She peered down at his white trainers and soon met eyes with the actor. He paused for a moment, staring at Ji-eun in her hidden position. She couldn't help but stare back as his eyes burned into hers, however the pair were interrupted as Ji-Euns's stylist reached her side, placing a silver chain around her neck and turning her round to move the pendant.
———
The actors adjusted themselves in their seats on the bus, waiting for the director to call action as they sat silently next to each other.
Chanyeol shifted his position slightly, sending a wave of goosebumps down Ji-eun's arms as she felt the heat from his side press against hers. He glanced down at her uncomfortably and the director turned to the pair as he settled himself into a seat at the front of the bus, ready to observe the scene.
"You ready guys?" He muttered, staring at them expectantly.
Ji-eun nodded in response but Chanyeol didn't reply, suddenly letting out a sigh and rising from his seat. She stared up at him in confusion, glancing at members of the crew and a few mutters ran through the bus as he glanced down at Ji-Eun.
The director gave him a questioning look but he ignored him, silently taking off the acid-washed jacket from his arms and placing it over Ji-eun's shoulders. It engulfed her body as it fell down her back but she simply wrapped it around her shoulders tighter, enjoying the sudden warmth.
"They'll look closer this way" he muttered bluntly before resuming his position on the bus next to her.
The director glared at the pair in confusion, but after meeting eyes with Chanyeol simply turned back to the camera.
"Good thinking" he mumbled, forcing a smile as he sighed deeply. "Ready now?"
