I'm not a private person!
Next to you, your breath
The rain was still falling quietly and for a long time,
The melody they created was playing softly through the speakers in Jihoon's studio.
A warm, soft, and slightly lonely song.
And inside it, the warmth of Kyo-eun and Ji-hoon was completely melted.
우지(지훈)
“…It’s all over.”
Jihoon said as he closed his laptop.
Kyo-eun blinked and nodded.
하교은
"Wow… that's cool…"
우지(지훈)
"Thanks to the person in charge, Kyo-eun."
Ji-hoon laughed lightly, and Kyo-eun also smiled shyly, as if embarrassed.
But they were both a little tired now. The rain, the late night, the quiet feelings they shared for each other.
우지(지훈)
"Take a little rest..."
Ji-hoon said. Then he knocked on the long sofa in the studio and called out to Kyo-eun.
우지(지훈)
"Come here."
하교은
"yes.."
Kyo-eun cautiously sat down next to Ji-hoon. As she sat next to him, she could feel his body heat.
Just as she was cautiously considering whether to lean forward— Ji-hoon was the first to gently tug on Kyo-eun's shoulder.
우지(지훈)
"Lean back comfortably."
하교은
"..."
Kyo-eun swallowed her breath and leaned her head lightly on Ji-hoon's shoulder.
Ji-hoon's arm naturally wrapped around Kyo-eun's shoulder.
Outside, the rain was still gently falling, and inside the studio, only the warm breath filled the air.
하교은
"Today was really good....."
Kyo-eun whispered. Ji-hoon turned his head slightly to look at her, then smiled softly and answered.
우지(지훈)
"Me too."
At those words, Kyo-eun smiled quietly and leaned a little closer to Ji-hoon.
The two remained silent for a long time, feeling each other's body heat, and immersed themselves in the silence of the night.
Inside the studio, where the lights were still on, the two leaned against each other, listening to each other's heartbeats, and fell into a very quiet, yet warm sleep.
A faint sunlight was coming in through the small window of the studio.
Jihoon slowly woke up, feeling his eyelids heavy.
In his arms was still Kyo-eun, carefully leaning against him and sleeping.
Jihoon looked at her quietly, feeling sorry to wake her up.
우지(지훈)
"...Really, it's so good...."
Jihoon muttered in a low voice.
호시(순영)
"Hey! Woozi!"
That moment.
Suddenly. The studio door opened violently and Hoshi poked his face in.
하교은
"...!"
우지(지훈)
"...!"
The two froze in an instant.
Kyo-eun blinked in surprise and tried to get up, but ended up burying herself deeper into Ji-hoon's arms. Ji-hoon hurriedly wrapped his arms around Kyo-eun and smiled awkwardly.
호시(순영)
“…Uh, what? Who were you sleeping with?”
Hoshi's eyes widened, he looked back and forth between the two, and then covered his mouth.
우지(지훈)
"Oh, no, that's—"
Ji-hoon tried to make an excuse, but then stopped, and Gyo-eun's face flushed bright red and she lowered her head.
Hoshi said with a big smile.
호시(순영)
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay~ I'll close my eyes and go. Oh my~ I'm jealous~"
Then he suddenly disappeared and closed the door softly.
하교은
"... ..."
Silence. Ji-hoon chuckled softly, as if bewildered, and Kyo-eun covered her face with her hands.
하교은
"Everything was discovered.."
Kyo-eun muttered.
우지(지훈)
“…Yeah. Everything was discovered.”
Ji-hoon said, grabbing Kyo-eun's hand and pulling her out.
우지(지훈)
"But so what."
Ji-hoon looked at Kyo-eun and smiled softly, yet firmly.
Kyo-eun's heart pounded again, almost ready to burst. And so, the two greeted the morning with a somewhat awkward air.
But even that awkwardness was now a part of each other.
