" What do you mean you don't have an aisle seat? " I ask the receptionist dressed in white, situated in the airport.

" Sir, the flight is completely booked. I'm afraid I can't give you an aisle seat. Please adjust with the seat you already have ". She says, bowing down, displaying an apologetic look.

" But I need it! I cannot stand sitting in the window seat! " I say, pointing towards the ticket. " You better give me an aisle seat or else I will have to call the manager of this place "

Jongho comes running towards me and grabs my hand.

" Sir, we need to adjust with the seats we have. Please don't make a scene here ", he says, pulling my hand and dragging me to to the boarding area.

" Wait, what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be at work? " I ask, while I load my luggage .

" Uh, the chief said that it's better if I accompany you on your journey. ", Jongho replies, smiling awkwardly.

" Ugh, fine. Let's go. What seat did you get? " I ask, while we try to find our seats in the plane. The plane was crowded today. So many people were just pushing against each other, trying to find their seats. It was a huge mess.

" I got the middle seat, sir " Jongho says, pointing towards the seat in the corner.

" Do you mind exchanging it with me ? You know how I don't like sitting in the window seat " I ask, hoping he would say yes. I mean he has to since I'm his boss and all.

" Sure, sir " he says, gesturing me to take his seat. We settle down and then I hear the flight attendant say that the weather just got bad and that it's going to be a rough ride.

This cannot be happening.

" Stay. ", Wooyoung says. " Please? "

" Uhh.... I don't know Wooyoung. ", I say hesitantly. I've never slept in someone else's bed before. Besides, I didn't want to sleep with someone I barely knew.

" Please? I just want some company. ", he pleads. I sigh. I mean, one day is acceptable right? It's not like he's going to harm me or anything.

" Fine. I'll stay. This is a one-time thing only ok? ", I state and Wooyoung nods with a smile.

He makes some space on his bed, gesturing me to sleep beside him. I place my phone and my watch on the nightstand and get into the bedsheets.

I stealthily pull out my gun tucked in the back of my jeans and place it under my pillow, making sure Wooyoung doesn't notice.

I turn to face Wooyoung, who's hands are behind his head, as he stares at the ceiling. He looked like he was in deep thought.

" What's wrong? "

" What- oh nothing. Let's sleep now. ", he says pulling the covers over us. He turns off the night lamp and snuggles into the sheets.

" Sweet dreams. ", he says.

" Sleep well Woo. "

He closes his eyes and I see a small smile forming on his lips. Wooyoung's face wasn't that visible in the dark but I could make out his facial features.

I slowly pull out my hand from under the covers and reach over. I slightly fix the strands of hair on Wooyoung's forehead, making sure they're not over his eyes.

He's really pretty, I think to myself. I did find him cute when we first met at the airport, but right now, he looks even more beautiful up close.

He must have girls and guys falling for him all the time. Hell, he might even have a girlfriend or a boyfriend. I mean, he's good looking, funny and cheerful. There's nothing not to like about him.

What am I saying? I barely know the boy. We just met a few days ago. I practically know nothing about him. What he does, how old he is, why he's here in Japan. I know nothing.

Should I ask him in the morning? Besides, it's already four, it'll be morning in a few hours.

I lean back against the pillow. A few hours of sleep should do me some good. I look over at Wooyoung one last time before closing my own eyes, drifting off into deep sleep.
