Loving Her Was Red || Mina×FemReader

Chapter 16

In the days that followed the memorable picnic by the lake, Y/n found herself eagerly embracing the vibrant social circle that Mina's friends had introduced her to. Each outing brought new adventures and deeper connections, enriching her life in unexpected ways.

One sunny Saturday morning, Y/n received a playful text from Dahyun:

["Hey trouble partner! Ready for another escapade? Meet us at the beach in an hour!"]

Grinning at the familiar nickname, Y/n quickly replied, ["Absolutely! Wouldn't miss it for the world."]

Arriving at the bustling beachfront, Y/n was greeted by the sight of Mina's friends already gathered, their laughter carried on the breeze. Nayeon waved enthusiastically, her beach towel draped over her shoulder.

"Y/n, you made it!" Nayeon exclaimed, pulling her into a quick hug. "Get ready for a day of sun, sand, and maybe a bit of mischief."

As they settled onto the sandy shore, Momo and Sana emerged from a game of beach volleyball, their faces flushed with exertion and laughter.

"Y/n, join us for the next round?" Momo called out, tossing the volleyball in her direction.

With a nod and a smile, Y/n joined the impromptu game, reveling in the friendly competition and the joyous camaraderie of her newfound friends.

Later, as they lounged under colorful umbrellas, munching on snacks and sharing stories, Jihyo brought out a guitar and started strumming a familiar tune. Her melodic voice filled the air, blending with the sound of crashing waves and laughter.

Dahyun, always the prankster, attempted to build an elaborate sandcastle with Tzuyu's reluctant assistance, earning amused glances from passersby.

Meanwhile, Chaeyoung and Jeongyeon wandered along the water's edge, collecting seashells and sharing quiet conversations that spoke volumes about their bond.

In the midst of it all, Y/n found herself soaking in the carefree atmosphere and the genuine affection of her new friends. And probably one of the best moment aside from the outing she had with Lisa and Rosé back in Los Angeles.Each moment seemed to deepen their connection, weaving a tapestry of shared experiences and laughter.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of pink and orange, they gathered around a crackling bonfire, its warmth a comforting presence in the gathering dusk. They roasted marshmallows, exchanged playful banter, and shared dreams for the future.

"You know, Y/n," Mina said softly, her eyes reflecting the flickering firelight, "we're so glad you've joined our group. It feels like you've been a part of our lives forever."

Y/n smiled gratefully, feeling a swell of emotion in her chest. "Thank you, Mina. I feel the same way. You all have made me feel so welcome."

The evening stretched into a night filled with stargazing and whispered conversations, the bond between them growing stronger with each passing moment.

As Y/n finally bid farewell to Mina's friends that night, she walked along the moonlit beach with a heart full of happiness and anticipation. She knew that these friendships were more than just casual acquaintances—they were bonds forged in laughter, shared adventures, and heartfelt moments.

And as she looked up at the twinkling stars above, Y/n couldn't help but feel grateful for the new adventures that awaited her, knowing that with Mina's friends by her side, every day would be filled with joy, camaraderie, and the promise of endless possibilities.

The days turned into weeks, and Y/n's bond with Mina's friends deepened with every shared adventure. From beach outings to cozy movie nights and spontaneous road trips, each experience brought them closer together, weaving threads of friendship that grew stronger with time.

One brisk autumn afternoon, Y/n received an unexpected invitation from Tzuyu.

["Hey Y/n, we're planning a weekend getaway to a cabin in the mountains. Would you like to join us?"] Tzuyu's message read.

Excited by the prospect of another adventure with her newfound friends, Y/n eagerly accepted. The following Friday, she packed her bags and set off with Mina, Nayeon, Jeongyeon, and Dahyun for a retreat nestled amidst towering pines and crisp mountain air.

As they arrived at the cozy cabin, nestled in a secluded clearing, Y/n couldn't help but marvel at the serene beauty surrounding them. The air was tinged with the scent of pine needles, and the distant calls of wildlife echoed through the woods.

Inside the cabin, they settled into their respective rooms, sharing excited chatter and making plans for the weekend ahead. Nayeon, ever the planner, suggested a hike to a nearby waterfall that afternoon.

The hike was a blend of breathtaking vistas and shared moments of laughter and camaraderie. They navigated winding trails, crossed babbling streams, and paused to admire the natural beauty around them. Along the way, they exchanged stories of their lives, dreams, and aspirations, deepening their understanding of one another.

At the waterfall, with water cascading into a crystal-clear pool below, they took a moment to soak in the tranquility of the wilderness. Tzuyu captured the moment with her camera, preserving memories that would last a lifetime.

That evening, back at the cabin, they gathered around a crackling fireplace, savoring homemade meals and indulging in lively discussions that ranged from trivialities to heartfelt reflections. They played board games, shared childhood anecdotes, and even indulged in a spontaneous dance party to their favorite tunes.

As the night wore on, under a canopy of twinkling stars, Y/n found herself surrounded by a circle of friends who had become her confidants, her partners in adventure, and her pillars of support. She felt a profound sense of belonging—a feeling that she had found her place among them.

"I'm so glad you're here with us, Y/n," Jeongyeon said softly, her gaze warm with affection. "You bring such joy and laughter to our group."

Y/n smiled gratefully, touched by Jeongyeon's words. "Thank you, Jeong. I feel incredibly lucky to have met all of you."

Throughout the weekend retreat, they bonded over shared meals, late-night conversations, and moments of quiet reflection. They supported each other through challenges and celebrated each other's successes, forging bonds that transcended mere friendship—they were becoming a chosen family.

As Y/n packed her bags to leave the cabin on Sunday afternoon, she knew that this getaway had marked another milestone in her journey with Mina's friends. They had shared laughter and tears, discovered new facets of themselves and each other, and strengthened their connection in ways that words could scarcely capture.

Driving back home with a heart full of memories and gratitude, Y/n looked forward to the next adventure with her cherished friends. She knew that with them by her side, life would continue to be an exhilarating journey filled with love, laughter, and the enduring bonds of friendship.

And as she glanced at the group chat buzzing with plans for their next outing, Y/n couldn't help but smile, knowing that the best was yet to come for her and the remarkable friends who had become her second family.
