Tied (Hyewon x Male Reader)

Chapter 116

Y/N got out of the shower, drying his hair with the towel in his hand.

"I'm done Hyem."

"Okay."

"Be quick. I want to eat soon."

"They're not going to start without us."

"But I don't want to keep them waiting."

"Alright, alright."

Y/N sat on his bed, scrolling through his phone.

I guess WIZ*ONE aren't too happy about the stages being canceled. I guess that makes sense. I wouldn't be too happy to find that out if I wasn't living with them.

Ten minutes later, Hyewon emerged from the bathroom.

"What took you so long?"

"I needed to make sure I cleaned myself of all the sand."

"Oh, I did that with the water right before I got back to shore."

Hyewon opened the door to their room, "But I didn't get to do that."

"Right."

"I wonder what happened to the ties. You definitely went past our limit, even if we were to extend it."

"Huh... I didn't think about that. Let's ask JiU when we eat."

"Good idea."

The couple walked to the dining room to see everyone there already.

"Welcome! I just had the foot plated."

"Oh, thank you."

The couple sat in the same seats they sat in during breakfast, and began to eat.

Y/N placed his chopsticks down, "JiU ah."

"Hm?"

"I was wondering... What happened to our ties during that whole event?"

"I disabled them of course."

"You did?"

"Yeah. It would get in the way of the game if I didn't."

"You're right."

JiU smiled, before slurping up some more soba.

Suddenly, Y/N felt something rise. Hyewon, sensing this, darted her eyes to her boyfriend.

"Ya. What's that about?!"

"Huh?"

Hyewon pointed to their tie, "That."

"It's just a natural occurrence." Y/N said under his breath, "I have no control over that."

Hyewon leaned in, "But it keeps happening when you look at JiU ah."

"That's just a pure coincidence."

JiU watched the conversation go down and shook her head as she continued slurping her soba.

Wonyoung leaned over, "What are they talking about?"

"Nothing important."

"It looks important. Hyewon unnie looks upset."

"They're fine. Just a couple's dispute. It'll blow over soon." JiU replied, eyeing the radish to her right.

Hitomi nudged Chaewon's arm, "So Unnie, how does it feel being separated from Y/N ssi again?"

"I don't know. It's kind of weird, but I don't mind it. It just means that those two get their alone time."

"Are all of your feelings for him gone?"
