Waiting for You (Just One More Night)

1/1

a/n: unbetated, so please excuse any mistakes.

There's almost two feet of snow on ground, the winter air is nipping at Sehun's nose and he thinks his hands are going to freeze and fall off anytime soon. He's always hated the cold, not sure why let Jongin convince him to come on this stupid skiing trip in the first place.

The shorter male next to him shivers as he pulls his thick coat closer to him. "I can't believe they left without us," he pouts. Oh yeah , Sehun thinks, that's why. Baekhyun's tomato red beanie is pulled down low, lower than he usually wears it, almost covering his eyebrows. The tip of his nose is almost the same color as the headwear due to the chilly wind and Sehun thinks he might combust from the adorable sight.

They're here as a group, it was Chanyeol's idea to come up here for winter break. He had offered to let them use his family's cabin for the week. The ski lodge was a 30 minute drive away and today they decided to make that trip. Somehow, they left the lodge and headed back to their cabin without Sehun and Baekhyun.

Sehun texted Jongin about ten minutes after walking around the lodge looking for everyone. Jongin replied with 'dude sorry didnt see u so thought u guys went back early w/ jongdae.' So here they are, standing in a feet of snow with only their phones and wallets on hand.

"Think they'll come back for us?" Sehun says, trying to keep his gawking under control before Baekhyun notices.

The shorter shrugs, buries his hands deeper into his pockets. "They can try, but the roads aren't gonna be cleared up anytime soon. I doubt they'll get that far."

The taller feels his heart pounding his chest. This is going to be the first time the two of them are going to be completely alone together. Of course they've been together alone before, while waiting for Jongin or Jongdae to show up for the movies or sitting in Chanyeol's living room as he makes dinner. Today, however, is the first time they're actually going to be alone, alone. He knows he should be ecstatic, being stranded with his crush of two years is the perfect scenario, but a part of him thinks he might faint from the anxiousness.

What is he even supposed to talk about? School? The weather? Damn was he lame or what.

"We should probably get a hotel room right?" Baekhyun says, looking up at the taller.

Sehun almost chokes on his own salvia. "W-What?"

"Since we won't be able to get back to the cabin tonight? Shouldn't we find a place to stay?" the shorter asks with a confused tilt of the head.

Sehun suddenly feels warm, the heat travels up his neck all the way to the tips of his ears and he quickly looks away before the other can notice. "O-oh, yeah. Right. We should."

There's a small bed and breakfast next to lodge and they're both extremely relieved when the owner tells them they have one room left due to a last minute cancelation. They didn't know what they would've done if they were all booked up.

"I can let you guys have this last room," the old woman says, "but it only has one bed. Is that alright?"

Sehun feels the beating of his heart quicken as his eyes widen at the woman. "Uh-"

"Yeah, that's fine!" Baekhyun chirps before the taller can say anything. "Thank you so much, we don't know what we'd do without you."

The woman smiles at them before putting them down for the room and giving them their room key. As they walk upstairs to their room Baekhyun goes on and on about how he can't believe their friends left without them and how it's a good thing there was one room left, but Sehun barely listens to him. He can't quite concentrate, because there's only onebed.
