THE FEELING of a warm breath on the surface of Nari's forehead was too distinct to ignore as she fluttered her eyes open from her restful slumber. The slight crack of sunlight coming from behind the curtains of the motel room window blinds her eyes as it hits her right in the face.
She didn't remember falling asleep last night. In fact, she kind of barely remembered any of it up until Jungkook came into her room and them having a conversation. All she could recall was being extremely tired by the time that had occurred.
From the sunlight beaming through the window to her hand, her gaze travels down to see her palm rested comfortably on someone's chest. A sudden realization strikes Nari as she takes into account that she had somehow accidentally cuddled her partner; her head lying on his cozy shoulder.
In a panic, she springs away from his body and instinctively pushes him away. This sudden and abrupt action wakes Jungkook up. "I'm so sorry!" Nari exclaimed, eyes wide as her hand flew to cover her mouth in surprise. She hadn't even known Jungkook slept here last night. Perhaps he was tired too and ended up falling asleep waiting for Seokjin.
He rubs his eyes, sitting up on the bed. "For what?" He grumbled, completely clueless that Nari had been basically hugging him in his sleep. She doesn't even know why she had done that. She wasn't one to rely on hugging or cuddling things as she slept. This was a mystery to her.
Nari shook her head, embarrassed, as a visible red flushed her face. She turned away from his confused gaze so he wouldn't catch it. "Nothing, never mind." She got up out of bed and quickly slipped her shoes back onto her feet.
As she did so, Jungkook gasps at a sudden realization and rushes out of bed in a hurry. "I need to check on Seokjin." He exclaimed, running out the door and leaving Nari alone. He had completely forgot about him last night, the moment he ended up falling asleep. The motel door shuts behind him in a hurry. Nari's eyes linger at the rusty door for a moment more, the thought of sleeping in the same bed as him consuming her thoughts.
It made her all sorts of flustered but Jungkook didn't seem to care at all.
Sure they were roommates, sleeping in the same room with separate beds for a month now but this was the first time Nari had ever been in such a close proximity to him, sleeping in the same bed. Similarly to the one time she was dragged to hide in a tight wardrobe with him, this made her just as hot. If not, even more. And just like the last time, he completely brushed it off after the whole thing. Nari wasn't sure if she was grateful for it or not, to be honest.
In the middle of her thoughts, the door suddenly bursts open, startling her. She jumped, gasping at the sight. Jungkook's face was pale, as if he'd just seen a ghost. The evident look of complete agony written on his face was enough to predict what he was about to tell her. And she was right. The words leaving his lips did no justice for nari whatsoever. Her mouth hung open and she couldn't help but feel extreme distress too.
