Behind Camera [HJS]: Chapter 10

Pat

His words still lingered until my head hit my pillow. What warmth is he looking for? Doesn't he feel that to his members? What's with winter to make him feel that warmth?

Sighing in frustration as I twist, Leslie groaned in annoyance, "Bacon. You keep on twisting and turning. Would you cut that out? You're disturbing the whole population sleeping." She said, Choosing to ignore her as I decided to, hopefully, sleep.

My phone suddenly vibrated from the nightstand.

I opened it to my surprise. A message from an unknown number.

Unknown

Unknown

Are you awake?

-Jisung

Upon seeing his name, I silently gasped as the person bugging me just jumped out to my phone.

Pat

Jisung who?

I silently giggled at my joke as he quickly replied to my message.

Unknown

The Jisung you know

Pat

Oh my god!

Pat

How'd you get my number, Park Jisung Oppa?!

Unknown

Dude, what-

Unknown

Han

I quietly laughed as I replied before changing his name

Pat

Just testing the waters, Oppa.

Pat

What's up?

Pat

Did you ask Hyunjin Oppa for my number or Leslie eonnie?

Squirrel

Seungmin

Squirrel

You can't sleep?

Pat

Yeah, and I might disturb poor eonnie here.

I replied honestly.

As my thumb hit the send button and Jisung saw my message, my phone vibrated, indicating someone was calling.

I accepted the call. "You want to meet?" The voice asked from the other line. "Oppa, it's 2 in the morning and you want to meet?" I told Jisung.

"I can't sleep either. That's why I'm asking-no, requesting you to meet up."

I looked beside me to see if Leslie was still sleeping soundly. Fortunately, she was snoring. Heaving a sigh as I quietly removed my blanket and went to the closet to fish out a coat. I sneaked out of the apartment and went to our meeting place.

By the time I got there, I saw Jisung sitting on a bench with his eyes closed. "You told me you're not sleepy," I said from behind, making him flinch. He opened his eyes, "Pat. You came."

"Of course. I'm not that type who'll leave someone knowing that that person might be waiting for me." I told him as I took a seat, "So what's with the sudden meeting?" I asked.

"Wanna answer day 3?" He asked, looking at me sideways.

Question 3. What keeps you up at night.

"How can I answer that?" I asked him.

"It's okay if you can't or you don't. Let's just answer this by ourselves." He said. "Okay. If that's what you want." I told him. Later, we sat there in silence, waiting for any of us to talk. "I have insomnia." He started. I silently looked at him. "I can't sleep even if I tried those sleeping techniques. I don't know why."

"Maybe the warmth you're looking for isn't present?" I asked, going back to our topic last time. He chuckled, "Maybe. But other than that." "Maybe the pressure makes you feel like an idol?" I asked again. He paused as he thought of it, "How about you? Do you feel pressured?" He then asked, now looking at me.
