campfire. // wong yukhei

05.

kim seoyun.

i groaned as i felt a hand on my shoulder, gently shaking me awake. it was jeno.

"hey, it's eight am... i tried to wake you up earlier, but yukhei told me to let you sleep in."

i looked at him and blinked a few times, slowly nodding as i turned my head to yukhei, who immediately looked down at his feet. he probably thought i didn't see him looking at me. "thank you, jeno.. and yukhei.." i slowly sit up and stretch my arms, sliding on a jacket and yawning quietly. 

"i'm going to catch up with the others to get some breakfast, alright? don't fall back asleep, i know how you are!" jeno ruffled my hair and slid on a jacket, leaving the cabin.

there was nobody in here except for yukhei and i.

i slowly sat up to put on some shoes.

"did you get to sleep alright last night?" yukhei asked with a gentle voice. i just looked at him and smiled, nodding softly.

"i did.. thank you... i'm sorry if i kept you up." i bowed softly and he only chuckled. 

i had never seen this man genuinely laugh or smile. it was a nice sight.

"no, no, i'm usually a night owl. please don't worry about me. how are you feeling?" he asked. he noticed me start to head to the door, so he quickly grabbed his things and went to open the door for me.

i blushed and thanked him, making my way out as i watched him follow. "i'm feeling good.. a lot  better than i did last night. thank you for being there for me, by the way. i'm such a crybaby, i'm sorry you had to see that." i laughed softly and wrapped my jacket tighter around myself.

yukhei smiled and moved to walk beside me. he adjusted his glasses with a finger to his nose, humming. "i think today's activity is beach volleyball. i mean.. we don't have a full beach, but we have a huge lake down the hill. there's sand and stuff. if you need, you can stay with my friends today?" yukhei smiled as he walked beside me to the breakfast hall.

i smiled softly in thought. "i'm so bad at volleyball, but i'll figure it out. i'd like to meet your friends... will they make fun of me, though?" i tilted my head, turning to yukhei.

yukhei just smiled and nodded. "no. that was just a me thing. i'm sorry. my friends are much nicer than i am. although... ten can be a dick when you get to know him." he chuckled.

yukhei seemed to love his friends. i was so happy he had a strong relationship with them all.

"i'd love to join you guys."

yukhei walked me through the food line. i gently smiled and watched him get his breakfast. he seemed to eat very well... how was he so skinny? god, i could never.

"hey, are you going to eat anything?" yukhei turned to me, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"ah!! no, i'm really not hungry." i smiled and held my hands up in reassurance.

yukhei only nodded and began walking down the line some more, getting more food. "please eat when you can. you know it's important."

i just gently smiled. he was so kind to me suddenly, and it was... making me really happy, to say the least. 

yukhei finished getting his food and lead me to the end of a table, gently taking a seat. i smiled and sat beside him, just playing with my fingers.

"what do you want to do when you're out of high school?" i turned to yukhei and gently smiled, resting my cheek on my palm.

yukhei sighed softly as he stared ahead of him in thought before turning to me. "you know, i really wanted to look into modeling." he smiled shyly. "i've been really confident in my body these days."

i smiled bright and nodded. now that i thought about it... that did suit him really well. "that would be an amazing idea, xuxi!"

his cheeks reddened. "y- yeah.. thanks!" he smiled and turned back to his food. i hummed and turned back to my fingers, sighing softly. i enjoyed time with yukhei. he really changed suddenly. he was so sweet.

just as we were starting to get comfortable, a certain someone stomped their way over here.

minseo.

"so, seoyun..~ hitting on new guys now? and ones you dislike? how low." she sat in front of me and twirled her hair between her fingers.

yukhei set his utensil down and pressed his palms on the table, starting to stand up. i looked up at him and bit my lip.

this could not be good.

"out stealing more men, minseo? you pathetic, hypocrite, good-for-nothing b-"

i set my hand on yukhei's shoulder. "th- that's enough."

minseo looked between yukhei and i, scoffing. "i'd love to see how you two end up. careful, wong. she's a lost cause."

just before he could say anything, she turned around and walked away, the swat of her hips only making the both of us more frustrated.

i turned to yukhei and bit my lip. "i- i'm sorry.." i looked down at my hands.

he only smiled and pet my hair softly. "it's fine, don't worry about it. keep your head up."

i slowly lifted my head to look at him. he was smiling brightly. i blushed darkly.

footsteps came up from behind us, and we both looked over. it was yuta.

"seoyun, can i please talk to you??" he questioned. yukhei seemed to have a very angry and defensive expression on his face. i sighed and sat up.

"i'll be right back, xuxi... wait for me?" i smiled. he just nodded and watched me leave, making sure i was safe until we turned a corner.

yuta turned to me and sighed shakily. "seoyun... i'm so-"

"what, sorry??" i stepped towards him until he backed up into the nearest wall. my finger pressed against his chest. "you're a sick fucking bitch is what you are, you used me just like everyone else. you said you wouldn't and you did. i should have known!" i muttered and shoved my finger deeper against his chest.

yuta bit his lip and looked at me. "i really didn't mean to! she just forced herself onto me."

i laughed. i laughed very loud. loud enough for anyone to hear. "forced you!? do you think i didn't hear your statement before that, nakamoto yuta!? i sholdn't have dated you so soon!! this was a waste of my time!!" i growled. 

yuta seemed to grow angry. "seoyun, you don't-"

"understand? i don't understand? oh, i understand ple-"

smack.

this motherfucker hit me. across the face.

yuta seemed even shocked himself. "seoyun, i didn't-"

smack.

that was a worse one, but it wasn't me who did it.

in front of me was an angry yukhei, and below me was a knocked out yuta.

oh, hell.

TBC.
