Chapter 33: Jeju Island

The flight to Jeju was less than an hour and it was already half past seven in the evening.

I turned to Taehyung, his hand still in mine. He turned his head, and slowly opened his eyes.

"Hi." His voice was deep but soft.

He looked forward and stretched his arms and legs.

"Why did you bring me along?"

"I didn't want to go alone. And I wanted you with me."

It's a good thing he didn't look at me or he would have seen me spit some of my water out when he said that.

"Why are we in Jeju anyway?" I patted my chest to avoid choking on water.

"Adventure." he grinned at me.

I sat confused and decided to go along with him.

We got off the plane last, I think he wanted to avoid prying eyes because he put on a bucket hat and sunglasses, even though it was almost 8 o'clock.

We walked towards a different arrival area where other passengers on the flight did no walk to. It was another VIP lounge, more like a VIP arrival area, I never knew one even existed. Once inside, we took our seats on a pure leather couch, and we were served with 'Welcome' cocktails by a waitress who stood by.

"Uh, Taehyung," I tugged his sleeve, "isn't this too much?"

"It is, but I could not refuse a friend who offered it." he took a sip.

A few minutes later, his bags were brought in by a well-dressed bellhop, when I realized I didn't pack anything for myself since he just picked me up without telling me his plans ahead of time.

"Taehyung, I just realized that I didn't pack anything." I said when we stood up to go.

"I packed for you." we started walking.

"You what? How?"

"Noona bought clothes that she thought would look good on you. I packed them."

"That explains why there are two luggage bags?"

He smiled sheepishly at me.

But that got me thinking, if he packed for me, that meant he included other items such as my underwear and girls' necessities. I thought about it and felt embarrassed, I felt my cheeks flush.
