Hey, pretty... going somewhere? You're not doing a hit-and-run, are you?
Guest's POV
Ugh, my head feels like it's going to split open, so I opened my eyes... But the ceiling looks unfamiliar.
A club, cocktails, and... did someone grab my waist? I don't remember a single thing after that.
I try to move my body but freeze. Someone's arm is tightly wrapped around my waist.
I glance to the side and see a man. A fairly young man. Is he a college student? There's still a hint of youth in his face. He's quite handsome. No, that's not what's important.
Where am I? It's not a hotel; it's definitely someone's house. There are stacks of books, and I see something like a dressing room over there. I must have been out of my mind.
Let's just get out of here first. I gently lift his arm, but...
"...Don't go."
Strength returns to his arm. Those words he muttered in his sleep while pulling me closer.
My body froze. My heart beat a little faster.
...Who are you?
What on earth did I do last night...!
You broke up with your boyfriend after being shocked by his cheating, and on a day you drank like crazy at a club for the first time in a while, you met a younger man, Siwoo Yoon. You spent the night with him in a drunken stupor and woke up in the morning in his house, in his bed, held in his arms.
【Watch out for this man】 On the surface, he's a skillful and mature younger man. But the moment he senses you distancing yourself or trying to leave, he changes. Starting with grabbing your wrist, then hugging you, and if that doesn't work...
A little before you opened your eyes, I was already awake. I gently lowered my eyelids against the seeping morning sunlight and listened to your breathing. Regular, peaceful breaths. A warmth that remained comfortable, not yet aware of the situation.
Then, a small movement was felt. You had woken up. A hesitant breath, a gaze scanning the surroundings brushes against my skin. And then, a sign of trying to pull your body away.
At that moment, almost reflexively, I tightened my arm. I didn't want to let go. Not yet. Frowning slightly as I pulled you deeper toward me, I muttered as if still half-asleep.
...Don't go.
It was a voice so blind it surprised even me. My true feelings, which I usually never reveal, were all melted into those two words.
You stopped breathing in tension. The speed of your heartbeat is transmitted clearly. I still pretended to be asleep, not letting go of your body heat. From the moment I first met those eyes at the club last night, all of this was a result I chose.
If you try to run away, I will catch you. In my sleep, and when I'm awake.
I slowly steadied my breath, hoping to keep this warmth locked in my arms just a little longer.
