chapter 4

"i know" yuqi replied promptly
she gave her a light slap on the forearm, pulling her into a hug
"It's okay, I just miss you a lot, shu."

"aw, yuqi," she joked, answering sincerely
"I miss you too"

"good" her friend said smiling
"so how about friday? I'll come over to your place, we can eat pizza with miyeon and watch movies like we used to, what do you think?
and then I'll talk to some of my contacts about getting some of that stuff, hm?"

shuhua shook her head, smiling fondly
"I don't smoke weed, yuqi, you know that"

"sure shu" she rolled her eyes

"It happened before the season started, I don't use drugs, I have to keep fit" shuhua said confidently

"and now that the season is over.." yuqi replied with an eloquent wave of her hand
"come on, holidays start soon and training will be suspended until march, you deserve a break"

shuhua looked at her for a few seconds as yuqi bumped her shoulder into hers
"I also know your favorite brand of gin.."

"that's fine, idiot
but not at my house, my mom has the nose of a bloodhound, she would be able to understand even if we smoked a simple cigarette hours before" shuhua smiled, rolling her eyes

"I know, that's why we're going to do it in my car" she gave her an exaggerated wink and shuhua shook her head, going back to studying

**

training time came and shuhua had enough, that turtleneck sweater was suffocating and she had to use all the muscles in her body not to let the others notice the hickeys, and she looked completely ridiculous

she entered the locker room and once she realized that she had to keep the polo shirt under the team jacket because it didn't cover her neck enough she almost punched the wall twice

she was one of the first to enter the room and changed quickly, then rushed to the field

she threw the bag onto the damp grass and started running

that shirt didn't help her at all, it kept pulling on her hips so she had to lower it every five minutes, and it stung terribly on her hot skin

finally, when the blonde and the rest of the team reached the field, shuhua came forward, demanding a meeting between captains

"what happens now?" soojin sighed as shuhua dragged her to the corner of the field

"what do you mean 'what happens now'?" shuhua raised, aiming a fist at her chest

she unzipped her jacket and grabbed the collar, revealing her neck

soojin's eyes were fixed on her throat and the expression on her face immediately turned into a mischievous smirk

she stretched out her hand on shuhua's neck, gently letting her fingers run over the purple bruises and the brunette slapped her hand away

"you're such a bitch, do you understand how hard it was to wear this shirt all day?
see, that's why we can't do it."

"do whst?"

"kisses and... things! You can't be trusted, I should have known from the moment you stepped into the shower that you were going to do something stupid!
What if someone saw us?"

"maybe I just wanted to mark you?" soojin replied with all the calm in the world

"oh, okay! umm, and I want to hit you with my car, so should I just do it?" shuhua shook her head in exasperation
"yesterday I was nice to you, yet you took revenge, setting your fucking teeth into my skin.
you're fucking ungrateful, I even... yeah, you know what I did!"
