Seokjin's pov

'Where is she?' I asked myself.

We were on Hotel Marriott attending a conference meeting about the topic related to the research. I brought the two students along with Eliza to this program. It was a two hour talk and now that it's over we were presented with a long line of tables brimming with variety of foods. Aah, maybe that's why she went MIA in this room.

My thoughts were interrupted by a familiar laughter which I've grown to love. I looked to my left and saw her standing with Nate, her friend.

Why is he always sticking to her like a glue? Is he going to make a move on her? Then I am going to kick his ass. Not that it is needed, when Liz herself is an expert in turning him down.

I decided to join them and walked towards their direction.

"Hey, Mr. Kim." Nate greeted me.

"Mr. Kim would you like to join us?" Liz's sweet voice hit my ear. Her calling me that feels different.

"Sure I would love to." I smiled at her earning a chance to see her dimpled smile.

We joined the table at the far corner. I sat beside her while Nate and Brooklyn took the seat opposite of us. I must have jumped a little to sit beside her, fortunately no one paid attention.

"How was your exams?" That was the only question I could come up with.

"It was pretty good, sir." Nate remarked.

"Yes sir, I think I did well too." Brooklyn joined the conversation.

"And what about you?" I asked Eliza who was silently sitting there.

"Me? Yeah good good." She sheepishly smiled. From her expression I knew she was not even listening to the conversation but was too equipped with the food. She's my girl, I know her very well.

"Since we are having a pretty long break, we should meet up some time." Nate suggested as a group plan for them, but I somehow knew the statement was open only for Liz.

"Yeah sure. Han and Chim would love it too." She chirped. That's my girl, haa.

"I will drop you home today. We can also watch a movie or something." He is not giving up.

"I don't have anything else to do. Let's do it then." She agreed.

I took her right hand from under the table. She tensed suddenly. With my fingers I drew circles on her palm very slowly. Her hand was cold against my touch.

"Aren't you eating?" Nate asked her, seeing her simply staring at the plate. I had to push back the urge to smile seeing her tensed face.

"Hm y-yeah." She tried to pull away but I held onto her longer. I wanted to shift my hands to her thigh but I had to hold myself back. I don't want her to feel uncomfortable. But everytime I am near her it's hard not to devour her then and there.

I couldn't tease her more as someone I knew came to greet me. I quickly retracted my hands from her's, I heard her sigh in relief.

After the lunch, she came to me telling she will be back before night. I watched her go with Nate.

I never knew I was the jealous type. But seeing her with him sprouted a new feeling inside me and I hate it from the moment it began.

I went back to our house after doing some grocery shopping. I decided to make something for dinner, she loves steak and that's exactly what I made. She doesn't favour too much spicy food and she likes when it's beautifully plated.

She has really worked hard for the exams. She studied day and night and even then she never complained or lazed around but helped me in the house chores too. After her exams she started applying for jobs without even wasting a minute.

I know her parents is not the best when it comes to comfort and support. Her siblings are though. There are many things that I don't know about her. The dream she had few weeks back was not just any dream, it affected her very much. I didn't want to force her to tell me. I know she will when she's ready. And I'm okay with waiting if it is for her.

I heard the car pulling over in our driveway. I looked through the windows and saw it was her and Nate.

That guy even came and opened the door for her. Tchh, I know she is beautiful, but she's mine. So stop hitting on her. I wanted to tell him that.

I saw her wave at him and the way his eyes glowed with happiness when she smiled at him, her dimples full on view. That foreign feeling of thorns pricking my heart came up again at the sight.

"Hey Jin, I'm back." She smiled so beautifully once she saw me. My mind and eyes were in a daze when I saw her pink lips. I couldn't think straight as I smashed my lips against her soft ones.

Our lips moved in sync and I tasted every single unexplored depth in her. Her tongue fought to keep up with mine. But mine was reacting like a beast like it had its own mind.

A soft moan erupted from her throat, turning me on. I lifter her by her waist and wrapped her legs around mine. My one hand holding her thigh while the other made its way to her back tracing her backbone.

I brought her to the couch and threw her gently and hovered over her. I met her lips once again. Her fingers tangled in my hair tugging it lightly, her legs still around my waist pulling me closer.

From her lips I moved to her neck placing wet kisses on every single spot. I pushed away a little of her cloth on her shoulder and started nibbling on her collarbone. A tiny mole drawn me to lose my control as I devoured her skin. Sucking on it without any break, my tongue soothing her skin after leaving red marks on it.

Her moans were music to my ears. The most alluring melody to my heart. My lips made way deep down to her chest. I slowly detached the first button of her shirt with my teeth. Her fingers grazed against the back of my skin. I kissed her again on her lips before placing another soft peck on her now exposed upper chest.

My hands placed her aligned to me by her waist. Her skin shivered in pleasure under my touch. My hardness rubbed against her thighs. But I knew she was not ready for it yet. And I will not do anything until she wants it. This thought somehow pulled me back to reality. This girl before me means the world to me and anything I do is for her and her happiness.

I removed my hands from her waist and lifted my head back to her lips softly placed a kiss filled with love. I gently buttoned her shirt and pulled her closer to my chest after laying beside her. She snuggled closer to me, her breath still uneven. The strawberry scent coming off of her calmed me.

"I love you." I whispered in her ears.

"I love you too." She replied in her soft voice, already realising we will have our time and it will be the right one. That was all I needed to hear, for it satisfied my heart more than anything else ever could.
