Meant To Be •KSJ• ✔️

Six

A smirk hung on Charlotte's lips as her fingers created a thin braid in my hair. "I know what happened next."

I rolled my eyes. "Right at that moment? No."

"Okay, maybe not right then, but it wasn't much later." Charlotte spun the braid into a spiral and pinned it to my head. Satisfied, she started on another one.

"What were you saying earlier about me not wanting to come off as a whore?" I sipped my water.

Charlotte continued to smirk. "You've always told me that you never hook up on the first night." She huffed when she messed up the braid, having to start over. "Granted, the first night of your trip technically wasn't the first time that you'd hung out."

I raised an eyebrow as I looked at her through the mirror. "Go on."

Charlotte looked back at me. "Okay, so your hookup rule still held true."

I nodded. "I'll never understand your deep interest in making sure I get laid."

"Hey, it had been awhile for you at that point." Charlotte continued with the braid. "And you deserve some fun. Just because it wasn't a long-distance booty call doesn't mean that you couldn't take advantage of the time spent together."

"I think you and I both know that it was going to happen eventually." I laughed. "I guess I didn't expect it to happen so soon."

"Just another way that you and I are different." Charlotte spritzed some hairspray over my head. "If the dude is hot, I'm going to try and get it in, especially when he has a set of lips like that."

"Again, Yin and Yang." I paused and looked at her again. "He knows how to use them, though. They aren't just for show, I can promise you that."

"Ooh, there she is." Charlotte grabbed the curling rod again. "Let your inner freak shine once in awhile."

I laughed again. "That hardly makes me a freak." I smirked before sipping my water again. "But that side of me is only reserved for him to see."

My eyes slowly blinked open when I felt a hand settle on my hip. I was lying on my side with the pillow scrunched up into my neck. I looked over at the clock on the nightstand and sighed as I did the math that told me that I was leaving in less than three hours.

My eyes fluttered closed again and the hand on my side moved a little. The bed slightly moved as the man behind me scooted closer. He buried his face against the back of my neck and took in a deep breath, bringing his hand up the length of my arm.

I curled back against him, feeling his warmth as our upper bodies touched. And when he kissed my bare shoulder, my thoughts immediately shifted to the night before.

It's super cliche, but it really just...happened. It wasn't part of my plan when I said that I would come out to visit, but it happened.

Twice.

Jin was so sweet, asking me more than once if it was okay and that I was sure about it. I didn't expect anything less from him, really. He didn't want to do anything that made me uncomfortable, which only made the entire night that much more amazing.

Everything about it was just so passionate. Again, cliche, but it was. We took our time, exploring each other and just enjoying every bit of our first time experiencing this together. There was no rush since he didn't have to be up early and we were both thankful for that.

But now here I was, hours away from having to leave, and I could already feel my heart breaking. I reached back to find his hand and pulled it around to the front of me, holding it against my chest and interlocking our fingers.
