Tumblr media
“Shit,” you murmured under your breath, glancing at the rows of baked dough that were left in the oven for a little too long. Rather than its usual glossy, golden brown finish—it was dull, and… sad.
It’s been almost a year since you’ve been miraculously hired as the pastry chef’s assistant at Hotel Mudrin. You say miraculously, because even without any sort of culinary knowledge outside of cooking shows, you still managed to land the job. The chef was somehow impressed by the basic strawberry pancake dish you presented during your interview, and instantly saw growth potential in you.
That was also when you met your best friend, Seokjin. He was a newly hired intern at the time, and with the two of you being the only staff members in the hotel within the same age bracket, it didn’t take that much time for a bond to form. Seokjin was always getting into trouble by his boss Mr. Im, because to him, this intern could never do anything right. But with you there, you were able to lend a helping hand when tasks got a little too overwhelming—and things got a little easier from there. You and Seokjin began to spend time together on and off the clock since.
You weren’t sure if it was the adrenaline or the mixture of raging hormones from being together, but the two of you decided to give dating a shot not too long after. It lasted for a solid two months—and while it had to come to an end, you both concluded that you were happier as friends.
And it was true. You and Seokjin have been inseparable since.
“____,” you heard the head chef call out your name, which instantly reeled you back to reality. Glancing down at the burnt dough on the tray, you felt a surge of warmth rush through your cheeks, knowing that you were about to be scolded at any second. “Are you okay? Ever since you came back from your lunch break, something’s been off.”
“No chef, nothing’s wrong,” you lied, walking over to the nearby garbage can to throw the current batch of dough away. A reassuring smile soon formed across your lips. “Just tired.”
If it wasn’t for you spiraling during your lunch break after Seokjin had left, maybe you would be in a better head space. But of course, spending the last ten minutes of break thinking about what went wrong in all of your relationships didn’t exactly help anyone at all.
The head chef could see through your lies too. And rather than questioning it, he only continued piping cream on the freshly cooled pastries on his side of the counter. “Maybe you need some fresh air,” he added with a shrug of his shoulders, eyes concentrated on his work. It was evident he was still invested in the conversation with you, though. “There should be a shipment of mangoes coming in in about twenty minutes, do you mind bringing those boxes in here? Take all the time you need. I’ll work on making another batch of dough.”
“I can make the dough, chef!” you tried to protest, mostly as a way to convince your boss that you weren’t feeling too off (when in reality, you were). “It’s okay, the mangoes can wait.”
As you were about to reach for the measuring cups in a nearby counter top, you were met with a look from the chef that clearly said: Go get some fresh air. Now.
So, rather than questioning it, you did.
After washing your hands and hanging your apron by the door, you made your way outside of the kitchen and into the main hallways of the hotel. It was emptier than usual—mostly because it was a weekday afternoon, and the guests who were staying at the hotel were out. It was also the midst of October, and the influx of guests don’t usually start to come in until around Christmas-time. Which was fine, because you weren’t met with the stress of having to make hundreds of fruit tarts in a span of an hour. Instead, you were able to step out and take a small stroll, which was always nice.
Upon exiting the area where the stairs were (staff weren’t allowed to use the elevators, per Mr. Im’s orders), you finally arrived at the ground floor. You always felt so out of place in the main lobby, with or without your work uniform. With the spacious area matched with gray marble flooring and sleek interior design, it was never a place you imagined yourself staying in. Only the richest of the rich could afford even one night in this place, and you? Couldn’t even afford a proper meal for dinner on some days. Hotel Mudrin was known to be a hub for millionaires, celebrities, or rich families alike—not for struggling university graduates like yourself.
But sometimes, it was nice to dream.
Quietly humming to a tune of a song you heard in the radio earlier this morning, you casually strolled through the floor, making your way towards the back door where the shipments would be. The subtle smell of lemon from the newly mopped floors was an odd favorite of yours. From time to time you’d flash a friendly smile towards the guests or staff members you’d pass by. But before you could exit through the back and meet with the shipment truck, you decided to take a small pit stop to the front desk and say hi to your best friend.
“Dude,” you began the minute you saw Seokjin behind the front desk. His eyes were on the computer screen in front of him, typing and clicking away, but you knew him well enough to know that he was probably playing a game of Minesweeper like he always does. Crossed arms resting on the desk, you then rest your chin on them as your eyes look up to your friend on the other side of the counter. “Remember when I wanted to cry because I realized I’ll probably be single and alone forever? Well my boss—”
As you continued to ramble on, Seokjin’s eyes finally met with yours. They weren’t eyes that meant he was ready to listen to you vent, no… they were wide. Like he was in a state of shock.
He quickly began to shake his head, which caused you to raise an eyebrow in slight confusion. Did he want you to stop talking? Shut up? Right as you were about to say something though, his lips began to mouth the words ‘I’m busy’ over and over again.
That was when you knew, you fucked up.
The truth was, Seokjin was still busy tending to a guest, and you interrupted him actually working. Turning around, you briefly spotted the guest he’s been helping, and god—it was obvious by the look of your face that you had just embarrassed yourself into the next century.
“Sorry sir!” you apologized quickly, heat beginning to rush through your cheeks while you bowed for the hundredth time in the span of thirty seconds. Rather than making proper eye contact like any normal person would, your view was glued to the floor. “I honestly didn’t see you, and I know I should’ve, but—”
“It’s okay! Don’t worry about it,” he soon interrupted by providing reassurance. Once you heard a string of laughter from his end, you knew that he was understanding enough of the situation. “I get it.”
While you still couldn’t find the strength to really look him in the eye, you only returned with a sheepish laugh. It wasn’t every day you found yourself acting like a complete fool in front of a hotel guest (that was more of Seokjin’s speed in all honesty), so you didn’t exactly know how to fix the situation. Instead, you ended up sitting there in silence until Seokjin rescued the conversation.
“Alright!” he chimed in with the clasp of his hands, which was obviously your cue to slowly walk away. “You’re all checked in until the 31st, Mr. Kim. Let me grab your bags and take you to your suite.”
As you were about to leave, of course, you couldn’t go without embarrassing yourself one last time. Just as you were about to make a beeline towards the break room—also known as the place you were going to scream in—you managed to bump into this guest in full force.  
Looking up, you finally had the chance to take a good glimpse of the person in front of you. He was tall, muscular, with ash blond hair that was parted in the center. His almond eyes were practically gleaming behind his silver frames, and it paired well with the two dimples perfectly placed on each cheek.
In other words, he was gorgeous. And completely out of your league. Which is probably another reason why you were feeling flustered beyond belief at this very moment.
“Are you okay?” he asked softly. It felt like a movie—with both of his hands gently placed on each of your arms to provide support, gentle eyes locked on yours. You could’ve sworn you felt your heart stop, whether if it’s from being embarrassed or… swooned, even.
Swallowing thickly, you managed to let out a small “yeah,” before fixing your stance. He eventually let go, and the two of you were able to laugh it off for a little. “But are you okay, sir?”
“Didn’t even hurt,” he reassured, flashing that smile that accentuated his dimples really well. An open then was reached out as an offer. “You can call me Namjoon. Do you work here?”
But before you could even keep the conversation going, of course, Seokjin had to butt in. Literally. “Let me help you with that, Mr. Kim,” he urged with a friendly, yet painful smile as he walked in between you and Namjoon. He then reached down to pick up the leather suitcase that was sitting right beside the guest’s leg. Eventually, Namjoon had to retract his hand.
You took it as your cue to leave, so you excused yourself from the two without saying goodbye.
Thankfully there wasn’t anyone in the break room to look at you quietly take a moment to freak out over what just happened. If Namjoon wasn’t so good-looking and one hundred percent your type on paper, maybe you would’ve shrugged the interaction off by now. But you kept thinking over and over about how you were going to run into him again in one way or another—especially since he plans on staying at the hotel for over three weeks. All he had to do is walk into the hotel’s dining area to have dinner, and you’d be there. Not even as you off the job, but you in that stupid apron and chef’s hat.
Head dug into your arms as you leaned on the table, you tried to think of something—anything to get your mind off of what just happened. Letting out a deep exhale, you decided to take your phone out of your pocket and scroll through your e-mails. The first thing that caught your attention was an opened one, the one you received from that psychic about your soulmate.
Your soulmate is a man who is hard-working and bright, he will constantly continue to prove that he can be trusted and counted on by your friends and family…
Your eyes continued to read through the reading the photo was attached to, which was oddly comforting. To know that there was someone out there who could potentially be everything you’re looking for.
He is understanding, forgiving and respectful, even when you sometimes make mistakes…
Deciding to skim through the rest of the reading, you opened up that picture once again. You couldn’t help but notice something you didn’t the first time you saw it, and that was the small details on his facial features. He has three beauty marks: one sitting on the bottom of his eye, on his cheek, and one placed perfectly on the tip of his nose. You could’ve sworn those weren’t there before.
“And I thought I was the one who’s always the embarrassment at work,” you heard the familiar voice barge inside the break room, which obviously belonged to Seokjin. He walked over to where you were sitting and rested his chin on the top of your head, arms dangling from each side of your shoulders. “Jesus Christ bubs, you were a mess out there.”
“I don’t want to talk about it,” you murmured grumpily, placing your phone back in your pocket. “Do you think he’s going to tell Mr. Im? I can’t be blacklisted from this place, I need my job.”
Seokjin only laughed. “Stop being so dramatic. He seems too nice to do that.” Shaking his head, he sighed. “Plus, I’m eighty-five percent sure he was hitting on you.”
“Ha ha, very funny,” you retorted while rolling your eyes. “As if he found my dirty uniform and the flour in my hair sexy.”
“You’re right, there’s nothing sexy about you,” he playfully joked back, which made you elbow him in the stomach. And all he did was laugh after. “What are you doing out here, anyway? Aren’t you supposed to be helping Chef Seong making those pies for tonight’s desserts?”
You sighed, nodding your head in response. “I’m supposed to be bringing a shipment of mangoes in from the back. Are you on your break? Do you want to come help me?”
With your best friend agreeing to accompany you to your trip to get the mangoes, the two of you head out of the break room and towards the back entrance of the hotel. As you opened the door to go outside, you noticed that the truck was already parked in front, with a few boxes of mangoes neatly stacked on top of one another. So, you decided to get to work and grabbed the first two boxes you see.
“Are these all of it?” you heard Seokjin ask (possibly the driver of the truck). You couldn’t really see, because the boxes were obstructing your view.
“There’s two more left,” the other person, who sounded like a man, replied. “Let me get those out.”
You made about two rounds in and out of the hotel before all of the boxes outside were brought in. Seokjin had to do the absolutely most as usual bringing way more boxes in than he could carry, and while he tried to play it cool as much as possible, you could tell he was struggling. His trembling arms were a clear tell that he could drop everything at given moment.
“Are you sure you don’t need any help?” you asked him, trying to suppress the laughter bubbling inside you.
“Does it look like I need your help?” Seokjin scoffed, which only made it harder to keep your laughter in. He couldn’t even look at you as he tried walking inside, because he was far too concentrated in keeping all of the mangoes inside these boxes. “Go away, you’re distracting me and my strength.”
As he continued to carry the boxes inside, you watched a couple of mangoes fall out and roll on the ground in front of you. He didn’t even seem to notice, because he kept walking. You only shook your head before bending down to quickly pick them up before they get too dirty.
Assuming that you’ve picked everything off the ground, you stood up and tried to catch up to Seokjin, who was already by the door. But rather than joining him, you were stopped. “Excuse me, miss!” you heard the foreign voice enter your ears. “You forgot these!”
You turned around to grab the mangoes out of the driver’s hands. “Thank you,” you replied with a soft smile. “Sorry about my friend, he’s—”
When you looked up to meet his gaze, it was as if what you were about to say next was thrown at the window. The person standing in front of you looked familiar. Even with the brim of his large straw hat hovering over his eyes, you could clearly see the prominent beauty marks on his features that resembled the ones of your soulmate in that one drawing.
It was him. It had to be.

Family Dinner
Tumblr media
A few days later, my family invited Jin over for dinner. We decided to go to Olive Garden. It was 6:30 in the evening and I was in my room, deciding what to wear.
I want to wear something that's comfy. It really is hard to pick something to wear. The perfect match. The perfect top, pants, and shoes. After a while, I finally decided.
Tumblr media
Next I needed to find a pair of shoes. I chose these.
Tumblr media
After that, I made sure my phone was charging and went downstairs. My parents were in the living room.
After that, I made sure my phone was charging and went downstairs. My parents were in the living room.
"Hi, honey." Mom says. "Did you find something to wear for tonight?"
"Yep. I'm so excited." I say. "I had so much fun with Jin at the party."
"Really?" Dad asks. "What happened?"
So, I sat down and told everything to my parents (yes, I left the part out where Jin and I did our business).
"Wow, that's amazing." Mom says.
"I know." I sigh dreamily. "He's so perfect and handsome."
My dad chuckles.
"Well, we better get dressed before Jin gets here."
I look at my dad.
"Wait, what do you mean 'here'?"
"Well, I called his manager to see if he was okay with Jin coming to dinner with us and he said yes. He gave me Jin's phone number and I told him our address. So, he's coming here."
"He's coming to our house?! Right now?!"
My dad nods.
"Why didn't you tell me? I thought we were gonna meet him at the restaurant!"
"We wanted it to be a surprise for you, sweetheart, but not anymore." Mom says. "You should be excited."
"I am excited. It's just that I wasn't expecting Jin to come here."
"Okay, enough chitchat. Let's get dressed." Dad says.
We all agree and head upstairs to our room.
Tumblr media
"Can you both please promise not to embarrass me in front of him?"
"We promise." Dad says.
"You didn't keep it last time."
"Pumpkin, we forgot. It's okay if you get embarrassed. It happens all the time."
Me and my parents were all dressed up. I went to the bathroom and took one last look in the mirror.
It reminded me when I caught Jin checking himself out in the mirror back when I stayed at Hotel Mudrin.
I laugh just thinking about it. He was so cute. Just then, I heard the doorbell ring.
Jin!
I rush out of the bathroom and head to the door. I open and see Jin, standing there all dressed up in a suit and tie.
Tumblr media
I smile.
"Hey, you made it!" I say. "Come in!"
Jin smiles and steps inside.
"It's so good to see you again." Jin says. "I'm so ready for this dinner with you and your parents."
I giggle and peck his lips.
"Me too."
I wrap my arms around his neck and squeeze him tight. I couldn't stop hugging him. He was amazing. Then, my parents appear and my mom's face lightens up.
"Oh, so this is Jin!" Mom comes over to both of us. "Just like Navya described. Handsome."
Jin blushes at that.
"It's very nice to meet you, Ms. and Mr. Vivek." Jin says, bowing. "Navya has been a wonderful girlfriend."
"Yes, she is wonderful. We raised her well." Dad says. "You really are one handsome man, Jin."
Jin bows.
"Thank you."
"We should get going or we're gonna be late for our reservation." I say.
Everyone agrees and we head to the car. I put on my shoes
Tumblr media
and we all head to the car. Jin intertwines his fingers with mine and squeezes my hand. His hand was soft and I felt safe for some reason.
I smile and look at him. He smiles and looks back at me. We both walk to the car. I was about to open the door when Jin stops me.
"Please. Allow me."
"Why, thank you."
He opens and I take his hand and get inside.
"You're so sweet."
"Anything for you."
I smile and Jin closes the door. He comes the other way and opens the door and sits inside. He scoots closer to me and puts his arm around me.
Being in his arms was so cozy. I could fall asleep anytime. I scoot closer to him and lay my head on his shoulder.
"Don't fall asleep before eating." Jin says. "Then you won't be able to wake up."
"I won't. I hope." We both laugh. Then, our parents get in the car. My mom sits in the passenger seat and my dad sits in the driver's seat. He turns around to face me and Jin.
"You both ready?"
"Yes! Let's go!" I say.
We all laugh and head to the restaurant. The car ride was fun. Jin kept on telling his dad jokes and made us laugh. I couldn't breathe after laughing so hard.
Even Jin himself laughed so hard. We all had tears in our eyes when we arrived. Dad parked and we all got out. The sun was just setting behind the mountains.
"Wow, Jin. I didn't know you tell such hilarious jokes." Mom says. "He's like the jokester out of all of us."
Jin laughs.
"Something like that, I guess. I don't know."
We head in and the cashier brings us to a table.
Tumblr media
My parents sit together on one side and Jin and I sit on the other. The waitress gives us menus to choose our foods. She gives us glasses of water to start with.
"So...are you treating my daughter like a gentleman?" Dad asks.
"Dad..."
"Yes, I am. I will always love her forever." Jin says. "She's the love of my life."
My heart flutters and I blush.
"Jin, that's so sweet." I say. "I'm so happy to have you in my life."
We both smile.
"Awww! My daughter is growing up so fast!" Mom says. Her eyes glisten.
"Mom..." I say.
"I'm sorry, sweetheart. It's just that you're growing up to be a mature woman and now you got a boyfriend. I'm just wondering what will happen next."
"Ms. Vivek, I know what you mean, but we're not ready for that yet." Jin says. "Just for now, we'll be happy together."
"Jin's right. It's better to focus on what's happening now." I say. "Maybe later, we can discuss what's gonna happen."
Dad nods.
"That's a good plan." Dad says. "Isn't it, honey?"
"Oh, yes." Mom says. "Maybe I'm going too far. I'll worry about what's happening now."
We all smile. Then, our waiter comes and we choose our food. The waiter takes our menus and we wait for the food.
My stomach rumbles. Jin laughs.
"Was that your stomach?"
"Yeah, I'm starving!" I whine.
"You're so cute when you whine." Jin says.
I pout.
"I am not cute." I say. "Only as a baby, I was cute."
Jin chuckles.
"That doesn't mean you're cute now."
I sigh.
"Whatever." I roll my eyes, in annoyance.
"Navya gets annoyed when she's hungry." Dad says.
I cross my arms.
"Not that much." I say. "Just a little."
Jin and my parents laugh. I laugh along, too.
Finally, our food comes and the waitress puts each plate on the table.
I ordered the Chicken Parmigiana, Jin ordered the Steak Alfredo, mom ordered the Lasagna Classico, and dad ordered the Shrimp Scampi.
"Yah, everything looks so good!" Jin says.
"Yeah, let's dig in!" I say.
We start eating and Jin was right! Everything was delicious! I used to love coming here for dinner with my family. Every time we came here, I always leave with my stomach full. Now, I'm enjoying another amazing and delicious dinner with my wonderful family and loving boyfriend.
"How are things as a hotelier, Jin?" Mom asks.
"Pretty good." Jin says. "It's hard sometimes, but I manage."
"Tell me. What does a hotelier do?" Dad asks.
"Well, I'm responsible for hiring and managing staff and keeping things running smoothly." Jin says. "That's basically it."
"I've heard if you stay at a hotel, you never see the hotelier, but I did a lot." I say. "Maybe cause Jin wasn't that busy."
"That's how you got here, honey." Mom says. "Because Jin wasn't busy, you became friends with him and now you're dating him."
"I never thought of that." I say.
"Me neither." Jin turns and looks at me. "I guess we do make a pretty good team."
I smile. "Yes, we do."
"I also wanted to know if you both enjoyed the party at the hotel." Dad says.
'Oh, yes we did!" I say. "I had so much fun dancing with Jin!"
"Me too." Jin says. "It truly was an amazing experience."
"That's wonderful." Mom says. "Anything else happen?"
"No. All we did was dance and eat." I say.
"Oh come on, honey. There must be something that happened that you really enjoyed." Dad says.
"I'm sorry, but I don't think there's anything else." Jin says.
"You know, I heard some noises coming from the bathroom." Mom says.
"Really?" Dad says. "Come to think of it, I vaguely remember something like that."
Jin and I look at each other, confused. What were they talking about? All I remember was Jin and I dancing and singing. Then, we both realize and blush.
"You both know, don't you?" I ask.
"It's true, honey?" Mom asks. "Did you do it?"
"Yes." Jin says. "We're sorry."
Dad chuckles.
"Don't be sorry. You two are old enough to do whatever you want. As long as you're using protection and-"
I cover my face in embarrassment.
"Dad, please stop." I groan.
"We are very careful, sir." Jin says and jaw drops.
He basically outed us to my parents.
"Can we just finish dinner and go to dessert?" I ask. "I'm craving something sweet."
In spite of that awkward talk, we finish dinner and our waiter comes back and we order desserts. I love the desserts here. They're so good.
"Navya, do you have space in your stomach to eat dessert?" Jin asks. "I don't want you getting a tummy ache."
"Don't worry. I'll eat how much I want." I say. 'I won't force myself."
"Okay, then." Jin says. "If you say so."
Our waitress comes with the desserts and places them on the table.
I ordered the Chocolate Brownie Lasagna, Jin ordered Tiramisu, mom ordered the Warm Italian Doughnuts, and dad ordered the Dolcini cups.
"Wow, the presentation at this restaurant is very beautiful." Jin says.
"Yeah, but the taste is even better!" I say. "Dig in!"
We eat our desserts and enjoy them. They really were delicious.
"Nothing like a sweet dessert to finish off a very delicious dinner." Mom says.
"Yes, mom." I say. "Dinner and dessert."
"The two D's." Jin says.
I laugh.
"That's right, Jin." I say. "The two D's."
Finally, we finished our desserts and dad payed. We grab our stuff and head to the entrance.
"Have an amazing night!" The waitress said.
"You too!" We all say and smile. We head back to the car and get in.
I sigh.
"What an amazing dinner and night."
"Yeah, I'm stuffed." Jin says. "Although we had quite the awkwardness, it still was awesome."
I smile.
"It was." My parents get into the car.
"Jin, we'll drop you off at the hotel." Dad says. "I hope you enjoyed coming to dinner with us."
Jin bows his head.
"I did, and I would love to come another time."
"Of course! We would love to have you over again!" Mom says. "And, Navya will be missing you a lot."
I roll my eyes.
"Hey, Jin misses me, too."
"Well, you both miss each other a lot when you're apart." Dad says.
"Yes, that is true." Jin says.
"Alright, let's drop Jin off." Mom says.
Dad starts the engine and we drive back to Hotel Mudrin. Man, Seoul was so beautiful at night. All the lights and skyscrapers were gorgeous. It was simply...magical. I stared out the window in awe. It was like a dream, I should say.
"It's pretty, isn't it?" Jin says.
"Yeah. It's like a fantasy."
"It is pretty, but do you know who's more prettier?"
I turn and face Jin.
"Who?"
He smiles.
"You?"
I blush and push his chest.
"Stop, you're making me all flustered." I look down.
"Hey, you make me flustered, too. It's fair that we both do it to each other."
"I guess you're right." Jin takes my hand and intertwines his fingers with mine. I felt the warmth of his hand sink into mine. I smile and lay my head on his shoulder. I'm so glad to have Jin by my side.
"We're here!" Dad says.
"Navya, wake up." Jin says. "We're here."
I open my eyes and rub them. I must've fallen asleep. I look out and see the hotel in front of us. It was time for Jin to go.
"Ms. and Mr. Vivek, it was an honor to have dinner with you." Jin says. "I'm glad you expect me and Navya dating."
"Oh, of course!" Mom says. "Navya has been looking for someone that's perfect for her and now she did."
Jin smiles and opens the door. He gets out and closes the door. I watch him walk to the entrance. Is this 'deja vu'? I was sad again. I had another amazing time with Jin and now...he has to go.
I sigh and roll down my window.
"I had fun tonight." I say. "I hope I'll see you again."
"Me too." Jin says. "Goodbye, Navya."
My face droops.
"Goodbye, Jin."
My parents look at each other while Jin and I wave bye to each other. I roll back my window and lean my head against the seat.
Dad starts the car engine, but then my eyes wide to. I can't believe I forgot! I bolt straight up, open the door and run back to Jin.
"Jin, wait!"
He stops and turns to face me.
"What is it, Navya?" Jin asks. "Is something wrong?"
"Can you come closer?"
Jin takes a step closer.
"Closer."
He takes another step.
"Even closer."
He takes a huge step, leaving us inches away from our faces. I wrap my arms around his neck and squeeze him tight. Jin wraps his arms around my waist, squeezing me tight.
"I'm really gonna miss you." I say.
"Me too." Jin says. "But, I'll always be here for you."
I look at him right in the eyes. He really was a prince in real life. Then, Jin leans in and connects his plump lips to mine. It was a passionate kiss. Not too aggressive.
He breaks and looks at me again.
"I love you, Navya."
"I love you, too, Jin."
Then, we hear a honk.
I turn around and my parents, looking at us.
"Honey, we have to go!" Dad says. "It's bedtime!"
"Sweetheart, since you're upset about Jin leaving, he can stay with us for a few days." Mom says.
Both our eyes widen and I turn to face Jin.
"Wait, really?!" I ask. "Are you serious?!"
"Yeah." Dad says.
"Is it okay with you?" I ask Jin.
"Yeah, totally!"
I jump and down. Jin gets to stay at our house! I grab his hand and pull him to the car. We both get inside and I was ecstatic.
"Thank you so much!" I say to my parents.
"You're welcome, honey." Mom says. "Well, let's head home."
The car starts moving and we head back.
Once we get there, dad parks in the garage. I open the door and get out. Jin gets out after me.
"Come on!" I say. "Let's go to my room."
Jin smiles.
"Okay."
We head in and remove our shoes.
"Wow, your house is big." Jin says. "I wish I lived here."
I laugh. "It's not that big. It's pretty comfy."
"Well, let's head upstairs."
"You two have fun up there!" Dad says. Then, he winks.
"Not again, dad." I groan.
Jin laughs. "It's okay. We'll be careful."
We head upstairs to my room. I open the door and sit on the bed. Jin looks around my room,
Tumblr media
in awe.
"Your room is beautiful. I love the lights."
"Thanks. It's really cozy and comfy."
Jin sits on my bed.
"So, what do you wanna do now?"
"I don't know. I'm a little tired after eating."
"Wanna watch a movie together?"
"Sure! Let's get comfy under the covers."
Jin and I both make ourselves comfy under the blanket. I turn on the TV and head to Netflix.
"What movie do you wanna watch?" Jin asks.
"You should pick." I say. "You're the guest after all."
"Oh, come on. We should at least watch something that we both like."
"Hmmm...let's watch Tall Girl."
"Good choice."
Jin plays the movie and we get cozy. Jin wraps his arm around me and I snuggle into his chest. The movie was pretty funny and romantic. As the movie was playing, I was starting to get sleepy. Probably cause I was SUPER cozy underneath the blanket and Jin's arms was around me. I ignored it cause I wanted to get through the entire movie, snuggling with my wonderful boyfriend.
"Wow, what a great movie!" Jin says, sitting up.
"Yeah, perfect for us cause we're a couple." I say, stretching.
Jin checks his watch.
"Ah, we better get ready for bed. It's pretty late."
"Oh, but you don't have any pajamas to wear."
"That's okay. I'll sleep in this. I'll just remove my jacket and tie."
Jin removes his black jacket and tie. I could really see how broad his shoulders are.
Tumblr media
"I've never seen someone with such broad shoulders before."
Jin chuckles.
"Yeah, I have VERY broad shoulders." Jin says. "58 cm."
My eyes widen.
"58?! Wow, that's broad!"
Jin laughs.
"I know! Some jackets don't fit me that I have to remove them."
I laugh.
"Oh my god!" I say. "Well, on the other side, you look more stronger and muscular."
Jin's face gets red. He was so cute.
"T-thank you. Now, let's get to bed."
I giggle.
"Looks like I'm not the only one who's cute."
Jin rubs the back of his head.
"I guess not."
"Anyway, since you're not changing, I'm not changing." I say. "We'll sleep in these clothes."
"At least you can change! I'll be fine!" Jin says.
"Jin, we're in this together. I'm not changing cause I don't want you to be the only one who tosses and turns cause of their clothes." I say. "We'll both toss and turn tonight."
"Yah, Navya! You're so kind to me!" Jin says. "You deserve a reward."
"A reward? Just for not changing?" I say. "Well, okay. Let me just remove my jewelry and use the bathroom."
Jin nods and I head over to my jewelry box. I remove my earrings and necklace and put them in the box. Then, I head to use the bathroom. I peak my head through the door.
"I'll be right back." I smile.
Jin smiles back and I close the door. I do my business and come back. I walk over to Jin.
"So, what's this reward you have for me?"
"Oh, it's good. Really good." He says.
Then, Jin leans in and connects his plump lips to mine. He breaks and I look right into his eyes and blink.
"You're welcome." He says. "Now, let's get ready for be-"
I grab Jin's arms and pull him close to me. grab his face and reconnect my lips to his. Jin rests his hands on my waist. I wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him deeper into the kiss. I moan softly, brushing my tongue along his bottom lip.
Then, Jin's lips trail down to my jawline, then to my neck. He starts sucking, making me moan. He gets every spot. He was making me moan and groan loudly.
"Jin...my parents..they're gonna...hear."
He doesn't hear me. He really was into it. Then, we both a hear a knock at my door.
"Navya, is everything okay in there?"
Mom.
Jin breaks from my neck just before mom opens the door.
"Honey, I heard some noises. Is everything okay?"
I plaster a fake smile.
"Yes, mom! Everything's fine!" I say. "Jin and I were both just talking about how much fun we had tonight."
She smiles.
"I'm glad you had fun, Jin. It's past your bedtime. Go to bed!"
"Don't worry, Ms. Vivek!" Jin plasters a fake smile, too. "We'll get right to it!"
Mom nods and closes the door. We both sigh of relief.
"Whew. That was close." I say. "I really don't need my parents to know about my sex life."
Jin chuckles.
"Yeah. Mine too. Sorry about what just happened."
"Hey, don't be! It's fine. I enjoyed it."
"Me too. I mean, I was the one who did it."
I laugh.
"Okay, now let's really get to bed."
We both brush our teeth after that dinner. I had a spare brush, so I gave it to Jin. After that, we headed back to bed. We both got under the covers and laid down. I move closer to Jin and cuddle against his chest.
I sigh.
"I still can't believe we're reunited again. After a month of not seeing you, it's back."
"I know, right? It's weird. Time flies." Jin says. "Well, good night."
"Good night." I say. "Oh, and Jin?"
"Yeah?"
"I love you."
Jin chuckles and kisses my head.
"I love you, too, Navya."
The End.
A/N: This story is so long, but it's worth it! I hope you guys enjoyed it! There will be more! Stay tuned! Saranghae! 💜💜💜💜

The 12 Travel Destinations That Will Take Over Your Instagram Feeds in 2019
In our Winter issue, FASHION editors rounded up the 100 people, products and experiences we think will blow up in 2019. It’s our inaugural Hot 100 Fuse List. From the workouts you’ll be doing, to the new designers and artists you’ll see on your feed, this is your guide to being in the know this year. It’s time to go big, not home. Here are our top 12 on-the-cusp-of-greatness destinations that will be taking over your Discover feed.
Photography courtesy of tourism santa fe
52: Santa Fe, New Mexico
Visit in: Summer
Eat: For a cozy and casual vibe, check out the “good energy” and comfort food at Teahouse, tucked away from the Plaza, on Canyon Road’s gallery row. Sitting on its patio will make you feel like you’re in a tree house under the stars.
Judging from the gift shops in Albuquerque, N.M., you’d think Breaking Bad was the biggest thing to happen here—ever. But head 90 minutes northeast to Santa Fe and you’ll find wide open spaces, Georgia O’Keeffe-famous skies and deep Indigenous traditions. The town appears like a mirage in the desert, with its low-rise terracotta-coloured buildings made of adobe bricks. Coach’s Stuart Vevers referenced Santa Fe in his Spring 2019 collection. Tom Ford keeps a ranch (nearly one-and-a-half times the size of Manhattan) nearby.
Visit in August, when the city of 80,000 pulls out all the stops for the Santa Fe Indian Market, where more than 1,200 Indigenous artisans from across North America set up shop in the city’s historic Plaza. Play “spot the local,” searching for collectors clad in elaborate turquoise necklaces and rings in the Native American style. Fashion design is a growing draw at the market, with tickets to the fashion show consistently selling out. But our favourite event was the Native American Clothing Contest, which showcases bygone traditional dress from various Indigenous communities. It’s a fascinating visual reminder of the multitude of tribes that today’s Indigenous people descend from. –Jacquelyn Francis
Photography courtesy of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort
53: Jackson Hole, Wyoming
Visit in: Winter
Drink: Since 1937, The Million Dollar Cowboy Bar has been propping up the town square with its Vegas-style neon, local craft beer and big steaks.
Wyoming is fast becoming the new Colorado, as Jackson Hole Mountain Resort lures visitors with its 1,010 hectares of skiing and record-breaking powder. (Last year’s snowfall exceeded 1,270 centimetres.) Aerial tram Big Red has become an icon, able to hoist 100 people to the top of Rendezvous Mountain in just 12 minutes. –Doug Wallace

54: Munich, Germany
Visit in: Winter
Drink: Head to the legendary beer gardens at the Chinesischer Turm Restaurant & Biergarten, a must-visit spot in the massive Englischer Garten Park.
Berlin may steal the show as Europe’s edgiest city, but Munich has its own charm. There’s the famously raucous Oktoberfest, a massive annual party where revellers guzzle about 6.9 million litres of beer. Things are a little more refined in late November, when it transforms into a winter wonderland for its Christmas market (Weihnachtsmärkten). –Caitlin Agnew
Photography via iStock
55: Nagano, Japan
Visit in: Winter
Eat: When you’re done shredding the slopes, warm up with a cup of heated sake and a hearty bowl of hotpot at Sumo Nabe.
In the winter, if you take a nap on the 80-minute train ride from Tokyo to Nagano, you’ll wake up, look out the window and think you’ve travelled into a snow globe. But don’t stop here. Grab a ride 50 kilometres north to Nozawa Onsen, a sleepy Japanese ski village famous for its hot springs and premium powder. –Meghan McKenna
Photography courtesy of Silversands Grenada
56: Grenada, West Indies
Visit in: Winter
Stay: Silversands Grenada on Grand Anse beach offers unhurried luxury, lots of blond wood and, at 100 metres, the longest swimming pool in the Caribbean.
The southern Caribbean tri-island destination of Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique is trending for its off-the-radar peace and quiet. Known as the “Spice Island”—nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, ginger and turmeric can be found here—Grenada has 49 white-sand beaches and more than 30 scuba diving sites (including an underwater sculpture park) plus the best organic tree-to-bar chocolate. –Doug Wallace
Photography courtesy Kochi Biennale Foundation
57: Kochi, India
Visit in: Winter
Eat: Try the Taj Malabar Resort & Spa’s Rice Boat restaurant for your choice of Karimeen fish, crab, squid or langouste—all grilled to order.
The Kochi-Muziris Biennale, an international contemporary art exhibition held every two years in the southwestern Indian city of Kochi, attracts, on average, over 600,000 people for installations and performances by more than 80 national and international artists. Follow its map on foot or by auto rickshaw to explore this former Portuguese trading outpost. –Shalini Roy
Photography via Istock
58: Wales, United Kingdom
Visit in: Spring
Stay: The Harbourmaster Hotel in the sleepy coastal town of Aberaeron oozes comfort from every corner of its 13 seaside-chic rooms.
If a U.K. road-trip piques your interest, consider visiting Wales, where the highways are less crowded (good if you’re new to driving on the “wrong” side of the road). The window for sighting bottlenose dolphins, harbour porpoises and Atlantic grey seals in Cardigan Bay is at its best between June and October. There are also about 600 castles. –Doug Wallace
Photography courtesy of visitnorway.com
59: Tromsø, Norway
Visit in: Spring
Try: If you’re craving darkness, catch historical or contemporary flicks at Verdensteatret Cinematek, Norway’s oldest municipal cinema, while fuelling up on coffee and modern art at its funky in-house café bar.
Thanks to its location (roughly 400 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle and a short two-hour flight from Oslo) and the midnight sun, midsummer is when this cool island city shines. Twenty-four hours of sunlight means late nights don’t seem that late, which works out perfectly if you’re at Bukta, a three-day (and all-night) rock-music festival. Bang out to the best bands from Norway while sipping craft beer from Mack Microbrewery. –Emma Yardley
Photography via Instagram/@SweetandTastyTV
60: Boryeong, South Korea
Visit in: Summer
Stay: Enter recovery and rest mode at the aptly named Hotel Mudrin, where spacious rooms offer sprawling views of Daecheon Beach and respite from its muddy action.
More than 50 shades of grey are flung around at the Boryeong Mud Festival every July on Daecheon Beach in Boryeong. When it launched in 1998, it was to celebrate the health benefits of its mud, but it has transformed into one of the most outrageous bucket-list festivals in the world. Participants slide, wrestle and swim in mud while others party at performances by K-pop acts. –Tiffany Leigh
Photography courtesy of singapore tourism board
61: Singapore
Visit in: Fall
Drink: At Tippling Club, each item on the drink menu includes a picture of the gummy bear that inspired it; before ordering, you can taste-test actual gummy bears to help you make your decision.
On your way to Hong Kong, Tokyo or Sydney? Consider adding Singapore to your itinerary—even if it’s just for the cinema-tourism factor, trending thanks to Crazy Rich Asians. This island-city-state is unique for its melting-pot culture and Modern Singaporean cuisine. Bonus: Six bars made the 2017 World’s 50 Best Bars list. –Doug Wallace
Photography via Istock
62: Ucluelet, B.C.
Visit in: Fall
Stay: Wya Point Resort is a Ucluelet First Nation-owned property that offers camping, yurts or luxury lodges across 240 hectares of private beaches and old-growth rainforest.
If B.C. towns planted along the Pacific Ocean were characters from The Brady Bunch, Ucluelet might be Jan. She’s long been overlooked for sister city Tofino 35 minutes down the road, but that could be changing. Less busy but blessed with similar good looks, Ucluelet has her own surf spots nearby (Florencia Bay, Wickaninnish Beach) and picture-postcard trails. –Joy Pecknold
Photography via Istock
63: Sighișoara, Romania
Visit in: Fall
Stay: Hotel Sighișoara, which housed nobility for centuries, is now a comfortable inn where no two rooms are the same.
You’d think that the birthplace of Count Dracula (or at least Vlad the Impaler, the man he’s thought to be based on) would be full of creepy alleyways and dark corners. Instead, Sighișoara is colourful and utterly charming. Not much has changed since the 1100s, when the Saxons built Sighișoara Citadel. –Emma Yardley

Mudrin Hotel, Boryeong, South Korea
The Boryeong Mud festival is a weekend of fun so debauched it needs to be on every self-respecting traveler’s wish list. To some of the more adventurous Koreans, it’s a chance to let their hair down. For the American GIs, it’s a chance to blow off steam. For the Boryeong locals it’s a chance to make stacks of cash. And for me…well, it was my chance to enjoy the whole absurd carnival of it.
Having read online beforehand about the no-holds-barred nature of the festival, I decided to check myself into the finest and most prominent hotel in town, the Mudrin. When I arrived in the afternoon, the place was already in full swing, but you wouldn’t have known it inside the Mudrin. The swirling madness was kept strictly at the door, and the calm tranquility of the inside came as a shock akin to rolling in the snow after a sauna.
If the lobby had seemed like a safe haven, my room in this luxury hotel felt like it was on a different planet. I had a magnificent view of the entire beach. There were people in the water for miles, throngs of them hugging the coastline and partying on the beaches all the way up the sand. I knew several of my friends would sleeping in the pensions, and some of them would probably end up sleeping on the beach itself. I glanced around my pristine surrounds and hoped that it would look as good in the morning.
Having changed, I clambered downstairs and gleefully braved the maelstrom. There was a central area with bouncy castle rides that would coat you in mud from head to foot in grey mud, as well as offering the opportunity to mud-wrestle with between 10 and 20 perfect strangers. At one point I’d battled my way to a standing position only to have my legs whipped out from underneath me in the slime, much to the small audience’s enjoyment.
This was followed by Korean fighter jets putting on an extended airshow over the beach. Everywhere you looked people were buying soju and cases of beer and sharing them with anybody they liked. Korean photographers from every media outlet under the sun took pictures of the revellers, including me wearing the sunglasses I found in the sea and coated in grey goop.
As night fell, the party atmosphere cranked up- fairy lights and neon strips glowed everywhere you looked. Having washed off most of the mud, my friends and I walked along the beach front, enjoying the opulent fireworks display and the barbecued shellfish being sold from carts. The whole experience morphed into one gargantuan celebration, although what we were celebrating I couldn’t have said. It seemed as if the entire world stayed out until the sun began to come up.
While my friends shivered their way through the cool early morning and coastal winds, I woke up warm and comfortable and filthy with a massive grin on my face. The Mudrin did not let me down.

Party Time
Tumblr media
A few months later, my family gets an invitation to a party.
"We're invited to a party?! Wow!" Mom says.
"It must be in an expensive place." Dad says.
"It should say on the card. Read it!"
"Right here!" Mom reads and gasps. Dad, too.
"What?! Where is it?!"
"Honey, you're one lucky girl." Mom says.
"Why?! Tell me!"
"The party is at Hotel Mudrin." Dad says.
I gasp and cover my mouth. Hotel Mudrin?!
"Are you serious?" I ask. "Like, the Hotel Mudrin?"
They both nod. I jump and down, ecstatic. That means I can see Jin again!
"What time?"
Mom reads the card. "Tonight at 7 PM."
"OMG, I'm gonna pick out an outfit!"
"Our daughter is gonna be so happy when she sees her true love." Dad says.
"Yep. I can't wait to see the look on her face tonight." Mom says.
Upstairs, I go through my closet to find a dress to wear. I had so many dresses that I couldn't choose.
"Ugh, how am I gonna choose? I have so many!" I groan. Then, my mom comes inside my room.
"Maybe I can help you find something."
I smile and she comes over to help me. It took a while cause all of them were so pretty and gorgeous, but we narrowed it down.
"This is the one, honey!" Mom says. "It's gonna look so pretty on you."
I smile. It was a sparkly black top with a skirt.
Tumblr media
"Thanks. Now, I have to find a pair of shoes that match, which is not going to be easy."
"I'll also help you with that, sweetheart."
So, me and my mom looked through my closet again to find the perfect shoes. I had a lot of shoes. I had a few heels, but I rarely wear them. I usually just wear Converse. It's my favorite brand.
"Pumpkin, this is it!"
She turns and has a pair of silver heels
Tumblr media
in her hand. I smile.
"it's perfect, mom! Thank you." I look closely and gasp. "They even have rhinestones on them."
"Mhm, I just found it laying in the back of your closet. Now, these can go to use."
I sigh. "Well, I found a dress to wear and some shoes to wear. I'm all set." I look at my dress. It was beautiful. I smile. "I think we should have a snack now."
"I agree with you, honey. Let's go downstairs."
We both head downstairs.
I couldn't wait to see the look on Jin's face tonight.
Tumblr media
"Honey?! Are you ready yet?! We have to go!" Dad yells from downstairs.
"Coming!"
I check one last time in the mirror. Hair curled...makeup...jewelry...perfect. I was ready to go. I grab my phone and head downstairs. My mom gasps when she sees me.
"Sweetheart, you look beautiful."
"You look great, kiddo." Dad says.
"Thanks. Do you think Jin will love it?"
"Of course, he will. He's really lucky to have you." Mom says.
I smile at that.
"I know. He really is a one of a kind."
My dad checks his watch.
"Oh, we better get going. Don't want to be late."
We head to the car and get inside. I was kind of nervous. it's been a few months since I saw Jin. I don't know if he'll remember me cause he's been really busy with his job. The whole car ride to the hotel, I was a nervous wreck.
Finally, we arrive and my mouth drops open. The outside was decorated with streamers and balloons all over. I couldn't even recognize the hotel! We parked and got out.
We head to the entrance and there was a red carpet on the floor. I took a deep breath and headed inside. There were so many people laughing, talking, and chatting.
There was even a table with different foods and drinks, including desserts. I scanned the crowd for Jin, but didn't see him. Oh well, maybe he's busy. My parents wave to someone far away. "Honey, we found some of our friends. We're going to meet them." Mom says.
"Why don't you go and find Jin? I bet you're dying to see him again." Dad says. I wouldn't say dying. I would say...nervous. "Yeah, sure. Have fun." I say. They both smile at me then head off to join their friends. Well, now I'm alone and have nothing to do. Great.
I decided to explore upstairs, so I took the elevator. It's been a while since I saw my hotel room. I wanted to see if it changed. Hopefully, I could remember what room number it was. I did. When I got there, I put my hand on the door knob and twisted it. It was open. I pushed the door and remembered all the fun times I had in here.
I smiled and walked inside. I remember everything when I stayed here. I sighed and went to the window. I opened the curtains and saw the beautiful evening sky. It was simply magnificent. I stared out the window and took everything.
"Navya?"
I snap back to reality. That voice. It sounds familiar. I turn around and saw Jin, standing there, staring at me.
"Jin?"
He smiles. I grin and run towards him. I wrap my arms around his neck and squeeze him tight. Jin wraps his arms around my waist.
"I missed you so much!"
"I missed you, too, Navya."
I look at him right in the eyes.
"I couldn't stop thinking about you. You stuck to my head like glue."
Jin chuckles.
"Me too. All I could think of was you while working."
Then, Jin's eyes scan my body. He lets out the wolf whistle.
"Wow, you look gorgeous."
I blush and smile.
"Thank you and you look very handsome, if I do say so myself."
Jin smiles.
"Thank you. So, shall we head downstairs and have some fun?"
Jin shows me his hand.
I smile and take his hand.
"I thought you'd never ask."
Tumblr media
Once we're downstairs, we both decide to have a snack together. We head to the food table. Jin turns and looks at me.
"What're you in the mood for?"
"Hmmm...I'm in the mood for taco bites." I take one and pop in my mouth. I give a thumbs up to Jin and he chuckles.
"How about you?"
Jin thinks deeply. "I'm in the mood for chocolate dipped frozen banana bites." He takes one and pops it in his mouth. He gives a thumbs up to me.
"Now to wash it down with a drink. I'm going for some cola. It's my go-to drink." I pour myself a glass
"Really?”
“Mhm.”
“Well, my go-to drink is wine.”
I look at him, surprised. Jin can drink? Wow.
“I’m not allowed to drink alcohol.” Jin pours himself a glass. He raises his glass and smiles at me.
“Cheers to a happy relationship.”
I smile and raise my cup.
“Cheers!”
We clink glasses and drink.
“Don’t you ever get drunk?”
“No, not really. I’m very careful of how much I drink.”
“That’s good...”
“Yeah. Imagine all the ridiculous things I would say.”
“Yeah...” I really couldn’t help thinking. How would Jin act if he was drunk? Cute? Silly? I shake the thought away.
“Well, don’t drink too much tonight. I don’t want anything bad to happen to you.”
“Don’t worry. I won’t.”
Then, we hear music playing.
“So, wanna dance?” I ask.
“I’m not really a good dancer. I think I’ll stay put.”
“Oh, come on. It’ll be fun. Trust me. Even I’m not a good dancer.” He didn’t look convinced. I pout.
“Please? For me?”
Jin sighs.
“Alright. Let’s go.”
I grin. “Yay! Come on!”
I grab his hand and pull him to the dance floor. Other people were dancing, too. I start dancing.
“Navya, I don’t know about this.”
“It’s okay, Jin. Just try.”
Jin starts dancing. I smile.
“Hey, I’m getting the hang of this!”
Then, he starts to get crazy. I laugh.
“See, I told you can dance!” I giggle. “Just dance like nobody’s watching!”
“Yeah!”
We both dance and have a blast. After the song ends, we decide to take a break.
“That was so much fun!” I say. “I can’t wait to do it again.”
“Yeah, but all that dancing made me exhausted and thirsty.” Jin says. “I’m gonna get another drink.”
“Okay. I’ll be back. I just have to use the bathroom.”
Jin nods. I sigh.
“Jin, if you drink wine, please don’t go overboard. Like I said before, I don’t want you to get hurt.”
“Navya, I’ll be fine. Just trust me. Now go and do your business.”
“Alright. I’m trusting you.”
I leave Jin alone and head to the bathroom. I touch up my makeup and fix my hair. It got kinda crazy when I was dancing. After checking one last time, I head to join Jin.
But, when I got there, he wasn’t there. Where did he go? Maybe he went to the bathroom? Oh well. He’ll turn up. I look outside and it’s dark. Fully dark. Even in the hotel it was dark.
At least there were lights. I took another drink and decided to dance again. Hopefully, Jin shows up. I go the dance floor and dance. Alone. It was pretty awkward dancing by myself, but besides that, it was fun.
As I was dancing, I feel someone tugging at my waist. “Dance with me.” Someone breathes into my ear. I turn my head and see Jin. I could tell he was drunk. I let him pull me to dance. His version of dancing was very different than everyone else's.
Instead of dancing like any other person, he was doing the sprinkler. I couldn't help but bust out into a fit of laughter at his actions.
"This is hot, isn't it?" Jin yells over the music.
"Jin, I really think you need to take a break from the drinking." I say.
"But, I'm just getting started!" Jin says as he throws himself onto me.
I have to hold my arms out to catch him and keep him upright.
"Did I mention you look beautiful tonight?" Jin says as his hands automatically go to my waist.
"You're drunk." I say.
"And, you're sexy." Jin says, with his head in his neck. Suddenly, I got this weird feeling in me. Oh no. No. It can't be that. Nuh-uh. I'm not ready for that. I try to wiggle out of Jin's arms, but he held onto me. Tight.
"I think you're even beautifier underneath." Jin says. Jin's hand slips underneath my dress, sending a shiver down my spine. I somehow managed to get out of Jin's grip. I run upstairs to my bedroom.
"Wait, Navya! Come back!"
Jin runs after me. It was really hard to run in heels, but somehow made it. I hid behind the bed, but I forgot to close the door. Crap. Jin came running in. He had to hold onto the wall so he wouldn't fall.
"Navya, I know you're in here!"
I didn't make a peep. I really didn't want Jin to do whatever he did downstairs again. I'm not ready for that yet. I heard his footsteps getting closer.
His head springs into my face, making me scream.
"There you are. Now, come here."
He comes to grab me, but I move and he falls onto the bed. I laugh. I thought he was gonna get up and try again, but he didn't. I walked to the side and saw why. I smiled.
He fell asleep.
All that dancing and drinking must've gotten to him. I knelt down on my knees and took in how handsome he looked while he slept. He was so cute.
Tumblr media
I leaned in and gave him a kiss on the forehead.
"Sleep tight...my handsome prince."
A little later, Jin woke up.
"Hey there, sleepyhead." I say.
Jin turns and sees me sitting on the bed.
"Navya. Did I fall asleep?"
"Yeah, you did."
"Sorry. All that drinking and dancing wore me out."
I crossed my arms together.
"I thought I said not to drink too much."
Jin runs his hands through his hair. He sits up.
"Yeah...I'm sorry." Then, he looks at me, wide eyed. "I didn't say or do anything embarrassing, did I?"
"Well..." I laugh and facepalm.
"I'm sorry for whatever I did."
"You don't have to apologize. Also, your sprinkler game is strong." I laugh.
"I embarrassed myself, didn't I?" Jin asks.
"A little." I reply with another laugh.
"What did I say?"
"You said I'm sexy." I giggle.
Jin groans.
"Anything else?"
Then, my face heats up. I look down.
"And you said I looked better underneath."
"Underneath what?"
I hesitate for a minute.
"My dress."
Immediately, Jin's face turns red. He looks down and fiddles with his fingers.
"I-I'm sorry."
"I-It's okay."
It's quiet again. The awkwardness is back. Jin clears his throat.
"So, uh...what do you wanna do now?" Jin asks.
"I don't know." I look out the window and it's dark. I take my phone out and check the time.
8:00 PM.
"Wanna head back downstairs and dance some more?"
"Sure."
The song changed. It's a slow song. Everyone's paired up.
"I wasn't expecting this." Jin says.
"Me neither." I say. "But, let's enjoy this moment while it lasts."
Jin intertwines his fingers with mine. We walk to the dance floor and find a spot.
I wrap my arms around his neck and his hands rest on my waist. We both sway to the music and get lost in each other's eyes.
"I'm so glad to have you by my side." Jin says, with a smile.
I smile back. "Me too. You're an amazing boyfriend."
"And, you're an amazing girlfriend."
That makes me smile even more. I hug him tightly and close my eyes. I really loved Jin. And he really loves me, too. He was so sweet from the day we met. I really wasn't expecting to meet a guy, become really good friends with him, and date him.
He was just a simple hotelier, working. Now he has found the love of his life. Me.
"That was so much fun." I say, sitting on the bed. "It really is nice to dance with someone who truly loves you."
We returned upstairs to my room to take a break.
Jin smiles. "Yeah. It is. It really is."
I look down at my feet.
"You know, I really wasn't expecting to see you again. After all the good times we had together while I stayed, I couldn't get over you."
"Really?"
I nod. Jin sighs.
"We had so much fun together. From showing you around, becoming friends with you, and most importantly, we confessed and started dating. All that stuck in my head, especially you."
I chuckle.
"I guess we really like each other, don't we?"
Jin chuckles.
"Yeah."
Jin walks up to me and sits down besides me on the bed.
"We don't like each other. We LOVE each other."
I look up at him. I couldn't help but smile. I stand up.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. It's just..."
"Just what?"
"Do you remember the last time we kissed?"
"Oh, I know where you're going with this."
He stands up and looks right into my eyes.
"Of course I do. Before you left, right?"
"Mhm." I touch my lips. "Hmmm...I think my lips are dry."
"Ah, I can help with that."
Jin tilts his head and connects his soft lips to mine. His hands slide across my waist and my hands slide up to his neck. I bite his lip and he groans.
I lose my balance and fall on the bed, with Jin's lips still on mine. His lips trail down my neck.
"Jin, we should stop."
He looks at me.
"What's wrong?"
"What if someone hears?"
"How about the bathroom?"
"There's no way we're doing it there."
Jin gets off of me and sits. He pouts.
"We're never gonna be able to have sex like this."
I move over and peck his lips.
"It'll all work out."
"How?" Jin's eyebrow raises.
"I don't know. Night sex?" I say, my voice low.
"What if someone wakes up and we get caught?"
"That's a risk I'm willing to take." I say and Jin's eyebrows raise. He smirks.
"Let's do it."

Leaving
Tumblr media
I hear a knock at my door the next morning. I wake up and get off of my bed.
"Coming!"
I open the door and see Jin, with a tray of breakfast in his hand. He had a smile on his face.
"Oh, Jin. Hi."
"Hi, Navya." His smile disappears. "Um, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Come in."
He comes in and I close the door behind him.
"Are you ready to have fun again today?"
He sits on my bed.
"Yeah. I sure am."
Jin looks at me.
"Are you sure you're okay?" He purses his lips. "You don't look okay. You look...sad."
I give a small smile.
"I'm fine. Just a little tired, that's all. I'll get ready now."
"Your breakfast will be here, waiting for you."
Jin winks. I laugh and roll my eyes. Such a romantic. I go to my bathroom and change.
Tumblr media
I fix my messy hair by curling it and I put some makeup on. I pick some earrings and a necklace. I come out of the bathroom.
"Wow, you look great."
"Thanks. Now, I'm starving."
I sit next to Jin and eat my breakfast. I was still upset that I was leaving today. I tried to be happy in front of Jin, but it wasn't easy after reading that message.
"The pancakes here are still delicious." I take a sip of coffee. "Even the coffee."
Jin laughs.
"That's why I love the breakfast here." Jin closes his eyes and his bread cheekies
Tumblr media
appears. "So good."
I laugh.
"What, what?"
"Your cheeks are so cute. I can't." I say, still laughing. "Look at these squishy cheeks. They're so soft and adorable."
"Ah, Navya..."
I put my hands on his cheeks and squish them. They really were soft and squishy! Jin looked so cute with his cheeks squished.
"Okay, please take your hands off of my cheeks."
"Sorry. Couldn't resist."
I finish eating my breakfast.
"Thanks for the breakfast."
"No problem. I'll keep on bringing you every single day."
I sigh after hearing that.
"I don't think that's gonna happen."
"What, why?"
"Cause...I'm leaving today."
Jin blinks.
"What?"
"I said I'm leaving today."
Jin just stares at me.
"Y-you're leaving today? When did you find out?"
"Last night. Before going to bed."
"Can't you stay here for a little longer?"
"I don't think I can. I'm sorry, Jin."
"W-what am I gonna do without you?"
"I don't know. If it makes you feel any better, maybe we can take a selfie together so we can remember each other."
"Yeah, that's a good idea." Jin takes his phone out and goes to his camera. He lifts the phone up in the air. We both smile for the camera.
"Say cheese."
"Cheese."
The camera shutters and we look at it.
"Not bad. Hey, maybe we can trade phone numbers." Jin says.
"Now you're thinking!"
We both trade phone numbers.
"I'm really gonna miss you. I had so much fun ever since you got here."
"Me too. I...better get packing."
"I'll help."
Jin helps me pack up my clothes.
Tumblr media
"There. I think we're all done." Jin says.
"Yeah...I really don't want to leave."
"I don't want you to leave either, but you probably have important things to do back home."
We both hear a honk outside. Jin goes to the window and turns to me, with a sad look.
"It's time."
I sigh.
"Come on. Let's go."
We both put the luggage on the cart and wheel it to the elevator. We step in and it takes us to the lobby. We step out once it stops and go the entrance. Jin loads my luggage in the back.
"You're all set. I hope you had an amazing stay at Hotel Mudrin."
I give a small smile.
"I did. In fact, I had a blast, especially with you."
Jin opens the door and I get inside. He closes it and I roll the window down. He smiles.
"Do you have everything with you?"
"Yep." My face droops again. "Goodbye, Jin."
Jin's face also droops. "Goodbye, Navya."
I roll my window back up and we both wave goodbye. The engine of the limo starts and off I go. I look through the window and still see Jin standing there.
"Wait!"
The limo stops and I get out quickly. I run back to Jin.
"Navya, what are you-"
Before he could finish, I connect my lips to his. I kiss him longer cause I know I won't be able to do this again. I break and look at him right in his eyes. He blinks and crashes his lips back onto mine. I wrap my arms around his neck and his arms wrap around my neck.
We break and look at each other again. I could see the sadness in his face.
Tumblr media
"I love you, Jin."
"I love you, too, Navya."
Jin hugs me. His strong arms tighten around my waist. I could feel the tears in my eyes. I didn't want to cry in front of Jin. He would think I'm a baby. Maybe he would be one too cause I thought I heard a sniffle.
"Promise you'll call and text?"
"Yes. Facetime, too."
"Bye."
"Bye."
We both were holding hands. I didn't want to let go and neither did Jin. Slowly, our hands released. I ran back to the limo cause tears streamed down my face. I wiped them, but they kept on coming. I get back in the limo look through the window. I wave back to Jin and he does the same. I could feel a huge lump in my throat. The limo turns in a corner and I sit back and cry.
Tumblr media
The limo stops in front of my house. I dry my eyes and get out and unload my luggage. The driver smiles at me.
"I hope we see you again."
I give a small smile.
"I hope so, too. Thank you."
The driver smiles at me again and gets back in the limo. He drives off and I head to the front door. I ring the doorbell and my parents open it.
"Honey! You're back!" My mom says.
"We missed you so much!" My dad says.
I step into the house and remove my shoes. I sigh.
"I missed you, too. Did I miss anything?"
They both shake their head.
"We're just so glad you're back." Mom says. "I was so worried about you."
I groan. "Mom, for god's sake."
"Anyway, why don't you go upstairs and unpack? You're probably exhausted." Dad says.
"Yeah, I might take a nap, too." I yawn.
"Come down when dinner's ready." Mom says.
I nod and head upstairs. I open the door and drop my luggage on the ground. I collapse on my bed. I was exhausted after the long ride. I still missed Jin. I probably should tell my parents so they can help me Did they even notice that I cried? Hopefully not cause they would keep on asking me what's wrong. I fell right asleep.
Tumblr media
"Sweetheart! Dinnertime!" Mom says. I wake up and check the time. It's 9:30. I get out of bed and head downstairs to the dining table. I sit down.
"Did you have a good nap?" Dad asks.
I nod and poke my food with my fork.
"Is something wrong, dear?" Mom asks. "You're not eating."
"No. I'm fine. I'm just not very hungry."
"You sure? You look upset." Dad says.
Those are the same words that Jin said to me. Jin.
"Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry..."
"Honey, if there's something wrong, you can tell us." Mom says.
I sigh. "It's nothing. I just miss Hotel Mudrin."
"Oh, I know what it is. You miss Jin, don't you?" Dad asks.
Just hearing his name made me wanna cry. The tears started coming. I couldn't hold in. I cried.
"I miss him so much!!! I really love him!!! A lot!!!"
My parents hug me.
"Oh, sweetheart. It's okay." Mom says. "Your dad and I miss him, too."
"He really was the perfect man for you, that's for sure." Dad says.
I sniffle and wipe my nose with my sleeve.
"Am I ever gonna see him again? I would love that."
"I don't know, honey. I don't know." Mom says. "It will happen someday."
"Your mom is right. We just have to be patient."
I dry my eyes.
"I know. It's just that I had an amazing time with him."
"I know you did. I bet he missed you, too." Mom sighs. "Well, eat your dinner. It's getting cold and it's late."
"We'll see what happens over in the next couple of weeks and months." Dad says.
I nod and eat my dinner, even though I still wasn't hungry. I finish and head upstairs to my room. I enter and change into my pajamas. I brush my teeth and get into bed. I hear a ding from my phone. I pick it up and see it's Jin.
Jin: Thinking about you...💕
I smile.
Me: Me too...I miss you. A lot.
Jin: I miss you even more.
He sends a picture. He was wearing a suit with a tuxedo.
Jin:
Tumblr media
Me: Wow, so handsome! 🥰
Jin: I had something to attend today. That's why.
Me: I see. Well, you are very handsome in any look. Period.
Jin: WWH Jin, yeah.
I laugh.
Me: 😂
Jin: Well, it's pretty late for us and we should get to bed. Good night, Navya.
Me: Good night, Jin. I love you."
Jin: I love you, too, Navya.
I turn off my phone, but then I get one more ding. I look and smile.
Jin:
Tumblr media
Me: 😂😙
I turn off my phone and fall asleep.

Hotel Mudrin
Tumblr media
A/N: I was watching Jin's scenes in BTS World when I suddenly had an epiphany hehe. Hope you enjoy!
"Navya?"
"Yeah?"
"Could you come here?"
I walk to the living room where my mom and dad are sitting.
"What's up?"
"We've seen you working really hard so your dad and I have decided to give you a vacation." My mom says.
"Really?"
They both nod.
"Where am I going?"
"You're going to be staying in a hotel. It's called Hotel Mudrin. It's very fancy."
"It sounds nice. Thank you so much!"
I give them both hugs.
"Go and pack. We'll tell you when your limo comes."
I gasp.
"I'm riding in a limo?!"
"Yes, you are."
I jump up and down.
"I love you both so much!"
"Wear something nice!" My mom says.
"I will!"
I go to my room and start packing. I was so excited. After I packed, I chose an outfit.
Tumblr media
I curled my hair and put some makeup on. Then, I put on my earrings.
Tumblr media
"Navya, your limo is here! Come on!"
"Coming!"
I grab my luggage and purse and head downstairs. My mom gasps.
"Sweetheart, you look beautiful."
"Thank you."
"I'm gonna miss you."
"Dad, I'll be back soon. Love you guys."
"Bye, honey."
"Bye, mom. Bye, dad."
With that, I put on my boots
Tumblr media
and headed out the door. I got in the limo and waved goodbye to my parents. I was so excited to get there. I wonder if I'll make any friends there. I was also kind of nervous. I've never been here before. I'm sure everything will be fine. Then, I saw the hotel. I was in awe and gasped! It was so huge! And tall!
Tumblr media
The limo stopped in front of the entrance.
Tumblr media
The driver turned around to me.
"Your hotelier will be here soon."
"Hotelier? Okay."
I wonder who that could be. I hear footsteps outside, so I rolled down my window. I saw a man standing there. A really handsome man. He looked so young. He was wearing a black button vest with a white full hand inside. He also had a black tie to his neck.
Tumblr media
"You must be Navya."
How did he know my name? I don't know him, so how would he know me? I responded politely.
"Yes, I am and you must be my hotelier."
He smiles and nods.
"Aren't you gonna open the door for me?"
"Oh!"
The man opens the door for me and before I could get out, he stops me.
"Here. Let me help you out."
He gives me his hand. I smile.
"You're such a gentleman."
I take his hand and he helps me. He closes the door.
"I can take your purse, too, if you want."
"It's okay. I can carry it."
"You sure?"
"Yes."
"Alright then. Right this way, madam."
He just called me madam. No one has ever done that before. He leads me inside the hotel. I gasp. The place was even beautiful inside!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"This place is amazing! I'm in love!"
The handsome man smiles.
"I know. Our guests always say that. Now, let's get your room card and head to your room."
I nod. I get my room card and I head to the elevator. I push a button.
"Where's my luggage?"
"It's right here."
The man had a cart with my luggage on it. The elevator opens and the man pushed the cart inside.
"Please. Ladies first."
I smile. He was being so sweet and a gentleman. He looked so innocent and kind. He followed me into the elevator and pressed a button. The elevator closed and it took us to the 3rd floor. It was quiet and awkward, at least for me. I cleared my throat.
"So, what's it like being a hotelier?"
"It's nice, but sometimes I don't follow the rules and I get in trouble."
"Same goes for me with my parents. They get mad at me for not doing something right and for not listening to them."
The elevator stops the doors open. The man smiles at me.
"After you."
I smile again and nod. I walk out and he pushes the cart behind me. We both walk to my room.
"This place is really fancy."
The man smiles again.
"It sure is. It's really amazing."
Finally, we arrive to my room and the handsome man gives me my room key. I smile at him. I put the key in the lock and turn. I open the door and my mouth drops open. There was so much space in here and there was a huge bed!
Tumblr media
"Oh my god, I love it!"
"You are very lucky to be in this room. Anyway, let me help you with your luggage."
"Oh no, it's okay. I can carry them. You don't have to do everything."
"I want to make our guests happy. Please, let me."
He takes my luggage out of the cart and sets it inside my room. He kept on going back and forth.
"Really, you're being too sweet."
The man smiles at me.
"Anything for our guests."
The young man sets the last bag down and turns to me.
"All done. If you just need anything, call me. I'll be right over."
Then he bows. What a gentleman! I couldn't believe my eyes.
"I will. Thank you so much."
I smile. The man smiles back and heads back to the elevator with the luggage. I go back in my room and just as I'm about to start unpacking, I remember something. I run back to the door.
"Wait, I don't know your name!"
But, it was too late. The man was already gone.
"Maybe I'll ask him tomorrow."
I go back and start unpacking. It was dark out, so I changed into my pajamas. I started to get hungry, so I ate dinner. After that, I got ready for bed. I brushed my teeth and got into bed. I couldn't help but think. How did that hotelier know my name and I didn't? Hmmm....maybe my parents told him about me? I don't know, but one thing's for sure, he's very handsome. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
Part 2 coming! Saranghae! 💜💜💜💜
