"Love, forgotten or not, will remain remembered in the heart."

<AERI'S POV>

"Mianhae...." I pleaded, shaking his arm slightly. Yoongi remains unwavered, busily writing in his lyric book.

"I haven't signed any contract yet. But I admit that it's my fault I didn't tell you about it!" I stood in front of him, who turned away from my direction. He continued scribbling away with a cold sulking expression.

Well, time to pull out my tricky card.

"Yoongi" I whispered, gaining his attention for a split second before I pulled up my shirt to reveal my undergarments.

Immediately he averts his eyes, almost stumbling over his chair. His ears begin to flush a deep red.

"what the f.." he almost swears out of flusteredness. He ruffles his hair, still blushing at what he saw.

My lips curved into a victorious smile as I bend over to look at his tinted cheeks. He stares at me in defeat, drops of sweat forming at his neck.

"Calm down, it's not like you've never seen half naked women before" I giggled.

"y-yeah but. It's different when I see you." He stutters slightly, caught off guard.

"How?" I tilted my head to the side.

"I have feelings for you." Yoongi admits, a little shy.

It was kind of cute to witness the ever so tired boy looking so nervous yet embarrassed at the same time. And it felt good to know only I can provoke this reaction.

"If you do that again, I won't guarantee that I can control myself" Yoongi suddenly turns to glare lustfully at me, shooting a warning sign.

"You won't ever touch me?" I asked teasingly, inching my face closer to his.

"Not forever." He answers, planting a soft peck on my lips.

"I don't want to touch you with half hearted feelings, because you're so important to me."

It was my cue to blush. I mean, who wouldn't after hearing those words?

"You really do mean alot to me, you know?" Yoongi pulls me into a tight embrace, but this time, he was gently hugging me, as if I was a delicate treasure.

"I love you" I hugged him back, burying my face into the crook of his neck. I couldn't express everything I felt unless I wrote a page-long essay, so it was summarised into those three words.

"I love you too." He cuddles into me, our bodies swaying slightly.

At last, after a long day, I could finally shower.

I stumbled slightly into the washroom, my eyes feeling like sandbags. I was so tired, I could fall asleep any moment.

I groggily turned on the shower tap, and plugged the bathtub so I could take a much needed, warm bath. It was at that moment I heard Yoongi outside, trying to open the door.

I was too tired to even move, so I didn't bother to cover myself up. I just lathered more soap around myself to half-ass cover my privates.

By the time Yoongi had unlocked the door, I had fallen asleep in the bathtub with the water level still rising.

<3rd PERSON POV>

Yoongi pauses over the sight, wondering what he should do.

It wasn't exactly convenient to wake her up, neither was it to move her. He silently turns off the tap, slowly carrying her to the edge of the tub while supporting her with his chest.

As the girl leans soulessly on the wet surface of the bathroom wall, he wraps a towel around her gently. Aeri furrows her brows as if she was having a bad dream.

"help me..." the girl started to plead in her slumber, a desperate expression on her face. Yoongi immediately takes her in his arms, hugging her tightly to soothe her.

"...I can't" Aeri continued to sleep talk, her hands grabbing tightly to Yoongi's arms.

"......can't...swim" she cries softly, making Yoongi's heart hurt. He embraces her tightly, his hand rubbing her back in a slow motion.

Somehow realising the water was the source of her nightmare, he carries Aeri in his arms firmly, leaving the bathroom. The both of them reached the bed, where he places her gently on the sheets.

Aeri's expression seems to have calmed down slightly, much to Yoongi's relief. But her hand was still tightly grasped onto his, as if her life depended on it.

Yoongi felt a piercing pain in his chest as he looked at his beloved lying on his bed, pale and motionless. It's as if she's been through a traumatic dream, and he couldn't even do anything except to soothe her with his hugs and kisses. He stays by her side for around 15 more minutes, his hand caressing her head the whole time.

"I'm here for you, don't be scared." he whispers gently to her, his other hand pressing on her cheek. Aeri's eyes opened slightly, before falling back shut again.

Her lips parted, mouthing out words that was inaudible to Yoongi. He leans in closer, so he could make out what she said.

"...gu....boy..." her voice was weak and shaky.

"daegu boy....."
