«NARRATION»
The early sun's rays sneaked in through the small gap between the curtains, illuminating a sleeping Lalisa's face like a veil in the dimly lit room. The warm duvet and the extremely cozy atmosphere was making it almost impossible to climb out of her bed, yet she was determined she would certainly succeed today. She felt a hot breath and some soft snores behind her as she looked down to find an arm anchored around her waist, clutching her close. Smiling, she rolled on her back before looking at her boyfriend in a peaceful, deep slumber.
"Tae..." She whispered, already feeling guilty to wake him up for her selfish request. "I feel bad for ruining your sleep...but, let's go out for a walk—"
Taehyung groaned in his sleep, slipping his arm off Lisa's waist as he sunk deeper into the duvet. Left with no other choice to begin with, Lisa pulled the warm blanket off as he shuddered with the sudden cold contact. The feeling was transient, because soon enough Lisa swung her arms and wrapped her legs around his waist, as if she was straddling him. Finally turning around to face her, a heavy sigh left his lips as he slowly opened his eyes to meet her angelic ones.
"Good morning." She gently placed her palm on his cheek before running her fingers through his wavy hair.
He only hummed in response, before starting to fall asleep once again.
"Yah, wake up sleepyhead."
"Time...?" His voice was raspy as he snuggled his face into her neck.
"About 6:30."
"God, sometimes I hate that you're a morning person. Why?" He whined.
"Taehyung, you clearly know why. We're on a vacation, we can't be lazying around the whole day!"
It was then that Taehyung remembered the events of the past week; the two had been packed with tight schedules and comeback routines which cut short the time they could spend together. Lisa's solo debut was near, as promised within a month. It was Taehyung who had suggested a three day vacation in Jeju to relieve her stress and obvious exhaustion.
"You clearly know why Tae..." she said, running her head back in time when Taehyung booked two tickets for vacation, a memory of which now must've seemingly erased from his head. "I just want to go out for some early sightseeing!"
"Can't we go a little later? I'm pretty sure the beaches nor the trees will shift away..." Taehyung wanted to laugh it off, although it seemed like Lisa wasn't in the mood for it — at least not as of now.
"Fine, if you say so." She pouted a cute frown, a visible sadness in her voice as she felt disappointed when she got out of the bed. Taehyung would say her acting worked towards the end, because he reluctantly got up to slip his naked torso into a shirt, convinced to go for their 'sightseeing' date making Lisa giggle at her boyfriend's cute tactics.

"Pose at the camera, oppa!" Lisa held the camera in her hand, looking over for a perfect shot. Showing him the snap she took of him, Lisa took some candid shots of the view before them, her nose crinkling as she was absorbed in her passion for photography, making Taehyung to smile seeing her happy.
"Aren't you happy you got up early?" Lisa asked as Taehyung slumped onto a bench, already tired from walking.
"Uh..." He doesn't give her an answer, knowing his reply would upset her. "I mean, Jimin and Jungkook would be proud though, so will be my hyungs."
"You can just tell me the truth, I know you aren't." She replied, before safely securing her film camera by hanging its sling around her neck.
"Where do you wanna head next?"
"You know what the best place is? The hotel room, we could do all sorts of things there." Taehyung grinned a devilish smirk, as Lalisa merely deadpanned him.
"I thought we were being serious."
"Well I was...." He let out an inaudible whisper. "I'll go wherever you take me."
Lisa extended an arm, a wide smile tugging the corner of a lips as she was thankful to Taehyung to come over with her, knowing the fact that he was a heavy sleeper and despised morning walks a lot.
"Come on then, my arm's getting tired and pained." Taehyung breathily giggled, before taking hold of her hand and pulling himself close to her. Lisa intertwined her hands with Taehyung, both of them smiling at it as they continued to walk.
"There's a beautiful scenery at the top, with a better view of the mountains...let's just walk up there, it must be more fun that way."
"I must say you're really lucky Ms Lalisa to have a compliant boyfriend who follows you wherever you lead." Taehyung said, reaching his free arm to wrap around her shoulders to make sure she was walking right before him.
"Sure. Couldn't have asked for more." She breathed out before blushing at his words.
If only you knew how much I appreciate these little actions Taehyung. She smiled at her own thoughts.
"Quite the same, I find myself lucky at times."
"What times may I ask?"
"Lets say all the times, its not easy to have a girlfriend like you after all. It's like I've been blessed."
"You and your corny words..." Lisa could've sworn Taehyung could impress any girl by the blink of an eye, although the amount of emotions he poured into each of his words were dangerously comforting to her.
Looking ahead, they walked an inclination led by a number of steps that would terminate at the top of a hill. Midway Lisa paused, shoving her hand away from Taehyung as she groped her camera.
"Its so pretty!" She squealed at the bunch of beautiful flowers.
Lisa turned the camera so that the lens was facing them, as Taehyung funnily made a 'V' sign over Lisa's head as she clicked a picture of them.
"We look so adorable." She admired the snap from a few moments back, as Taehyung kissed her forehead. "You look so beautiful without bangs, you should go bangles more often."
Grinning ear to ear at the compliment, she answered, "I might probably demand five billion won for that."
"Oh really?" Taehyung raised a brow, before leaning in to peck Lisa's lips, taking her by surprise. "My lips are worth over billions of won, don't you think?"
"Pfft." She blushed away, interlocking their hands once again.
Walking a little ahead when they finally reached the top, Lisa decided to finally let out what had been running over her mind the whole time.
"Tae, I will let you sleep tomorrow. I'm sorry for the inconvenience—"
"Do you enjoy right now?" He suddenly asked her as Lisa wrinkled her brows at the question.
"Sorry?"
"The walk, are you enjoying?" He emphasised as she nodding her head in affirmation. "Yes. A lot, actually."
"Then I don't mind waking up early, as long as I love spending time with you, Lili. In fact, I will set an alarm tonight so that I can wake up even before you do."
"You would probably sleep through the alarm." She stifled a giggle, feeling touched. "But I'm happy Tae, because you always stand for me and even agree to do things, that you hate to do. Thank you, Taehyung. I really, really appreciate you for this...all of this."
"Look who's being corny now." Taehyung pretended to tear up as Lisa playfully hit his shoulder, as the two walked over to admire the sunrise from the hilltop. Since this wasn't a holiday season, they did have a nice advantage of having no one around — the place reserved for themselves to enjoy little bits of happiness together.
A gust of cool breeze flew past as Taehyung craned his neck to face the clouds. Lisa softly smiled before fishing out her camera again to snap another picture.
"Hey, it's been you who has been taking pictures for long, it's my turn to be the one behind the camera now." He suggested as Lisa handed him the camera.
"Smile for me, babe." Lisa beamed upon hearing the cliche but cute nickname as Taehyung captured the beautiful moment into a perfect snap.
"You know Lili, I might not say it often, but I love spending time with you. I understand the risk of dating considering the profession we're both in, but I want you to know that I'll do anything for you and your smile. Because they're one of those things that are precious and mean the world to me. So I don't care if we have to spend time in early mornings or late nights, as long as its us till the end."
Lisa's eyes glistened with warmth as Taehyung pulled her close to capture their lips in a sweet kiss.
