NEXT MORNING

7:11 AM / KYH

I woke up this morning with pain all over my body and a strong headache. Gosh, how much did I drink last night.

I turned to my right and saw that Minji wasn't next to me. I recalled the thing that happened last night and widened my eyes at the vivid memory of her touching me places I never expected to be touched at.

"Was it all just a dream..?"

I slowly looked under my blanket and saw my fully naked body with hickeys all over my upper torso, stomach and thighs. I instantly covered my face out of shock.

"We actually did it!?"

I started kicking my feet and giggling to my myself like a little kid. I quickly got up from my bed and almost fell back down because of my sore muscles. Never doing that on a school day ever again. I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror, only to almost faint because of the incredible amount of hickeys and bite marks I had. Starting from all over my jaw and neck, leading down to my collarbone and chest.

"How am I going to cover all of this up now!?"

I felt itchy and wanted to scratch my back but the moment my hand touched the itchy spot, I felt stinging pain. I turned around and saw the reflection of the deep red scratch marks all over my back.

"Holy shit, she went off!"

I washed up and put foundation and concealer almost all over my neck and wore a polo shirt to hide the big purple marks. I was done with everything and when I went downstairs, I saw her. She was making breakfast early in the morning, wearing a see through oversized shirt with nothing underneath. I saw every single hickey on her body that I left on her and smirked to myself. Calm down Yoohyeon. It's too early for this.

I silently walked up to her and gave her a back hug, slightly startling her because of my sudden appearance.

"Good morning, Yoohyeon. Are you hungry?"

"I am. What're you cooking?"

"Nothing too special. Just eggs with some veggies and grilled cheese."

I gave Minji a pat on her head and sat on the countertop behind her and watched her do her thing. She was done with everything and served the food. She leaned on the table and looked at me.

"Aren't you going to eat?"

"I am.. but I'm currently wondering which one is the actual meal I want to eat."

I saw her purse her lips in an attempt to hide her smile and she slightly pushed my shoulder out of embarrassment. I giggled in satisfaction and got down to try out her food and damn, it was good...

When I was done, she helped me wash the dishes and walked with me to the front door to leave for school. Too bad she got expelled, we could've gone together.. I took my bag and was going to leave, but..

"Wait, I forgot something."

"What did you forget?"

I ran to Minji and gave her a peck on her cheek before leaving and noticed her slightly blush while trying not to smile too much and she was now a whole shy mess.

"And don't forget to put your clothes on, Jiu! I don't want someone seeing you like this!!"

I ran back outside to get on Minji's bike and waved to her before going to school. I was there on time and for some reason, many people had their eyes on me. I brushed their stares off and got inside my classroom, only to be stared at in the same way by my classmates, especially friends. I sat next to Bora and she gave me the most questionable look of all.
