collateral damage 🔞 - COMPLETE

When the sun hits my eyelids, I groan. I move to sit up, but pain shoots through me and I gasp. I open my eyes to see Jeongguk asleep next to me, and I can't help but smile. Remembering what we did last night, I lay back and run my fingers through his hair. He looks so beautiful all the time, but when he's sleeping it's like he's perfection.

"Done staring at me baby?"

His hoarse voice makes me blush when he opens his eyes to look at me. I smile sweetly at him, and just put my chin on his chest to continue to look at him.

"I'm not done... You're too pretty..."

He scoffs at me and moves quickly to hover over me, staring at me intensely. I laugh at him because he's trying to act all macho, but ends up looking like a pissed bunny.

"I'm not pretty baby... I'm sexy..."

I can't help but laugh harder which causes pain to strike me in my abdomen. I cried out making Jeongguk panic.

"Oh my God! Haerin! What happened?!?"

"I'm alright Gguk... Just sore... Don't worry."

He pampers me with kisses and helps me to sit up. When I finally stand from the bed, my legs shake, and if he wasn't there I would have sat back down. He doesn't say anything, but I can see that he's proud of my state. I roll my eyes at him and smack his shoulder getting a laugh from him.

We make our way inside, running into Naeun almost immediately. She looks at us, raising her eyebrows but not saying anything. We sit down at the table and she brings us some breakfast. We're quiet, but not in a bad way. I enjoy that we can just sit together and not have to talk always. When we're finished eating, he helps me stand up and I walk him to the door. We make our plan to meet later to go with Jimin to the party, and he kisses me goodbye.

I head to my room, but get stopped by Naeun unnie. She asks if I'm in pain, basically letting me know she understands what we did. I answer her honestly, and tell her I'm not hurt, but sore. She grabs me and brings me to the kitchen. She makes me take a painkiller, and drink some water.

"Go take a nap Haerin. I'll wake you up for lunch. Then you'll still have time to get ready for the party."

I nod and start to walk up the stairs. She is watching me walk away, and I hear her snickering at my waddle.

"Be quiet Unnie!!!"

The club is packed when the 3 of us arrive. I have a headache before we even go inside, but I paste a smile on and follow behind Jimin. Jeongguk keeps my hand in his as he can sense my tension. Jimin waves at some friends and heads in their direction. I stay behind until I see Somi is at the table with the group he's heading to. I stop and turn to head in a different direction.

Jeongguk stays with me and we end up at a table in a corner off the dance floor. I watch as the people that are supposed to be my friends, ignoring my very existence, and I feel my heart hurting. I see Jimin heading to the dance floor, and realize he's with Somi.

"Hae? What's the matter?"

I hear Jeongguk, but don't take my eyes off the couple that haven't noticed me yet. There's nothing wrong with Jimin having friends other than me, but this girl betrayed me in a way noone else ever has. A warm hand cups my cheek, turning me away from them, and I'm met with the deep brown eyes of my boyfriend. His thumbs wipe the tears from beneath my eyes, and he leans in to kiss me.
