Jeongyeon and Sana parted ways outside Jeongyeon’s cabin the younger girl placing a quick kiss on Jeongyeons cheek like they were a proper couple. Jeongyeon wasn’t sure exactly what was meant to happen with them after last night was Sana her girlfriend now or just a friend who spent all night giving her the best of her life. 

She saw the curtain to the window flick shut as she sighed heading towards the door she knew the girls were going to have a million questions about where she’d disappeared to and what had 

happened. She didn’t know how much she could share without putting her counsellor reputation on the line.

“Good Morning girls”

She said with a smile throwing her duffle bag onto her bed As her four Cabin mates stared at her.

“You’re pretty happy this morning what happened last night?”

Chaeyoung asked with a slightly raised eyebrow 

“I thought I saw you and Sana bickering? Did you make up?”

Jeongyeon pulled her glasses out of her bag and turned back to the girls

“Oh yeah we fixed everything. We’re friends again”

Jeongyeon still wasn’t sure if friends was the right word to use but she’ll keep using it for now until she’s had a chance to properly discuss things with Sana.

“Just friends?”

Tzuyu asked studying Jeongyeon her eyes flickering over the every obvious marks Sana had left on her collarbone the night before. 

Jeongyeon sat down on the floor with them 

“I’m not sure. More I hope”

Mina let out a small squeal before Dahyun threw a stuffed animal at her. 

“We haven’t officially discussed what we are?”

Jeongyeon added 

“But you guys have....”

Mina paused not knowing whether to finish the sentence or not. Mina shook her head obviously thinking better of it. Jeongyeon just gave a small nodded as aresponse to the silent questiom before quickly making an excuse to go shower. 

“Wait What was that nod about...” 

Dahyun shouted out as Jeongyeon left the cabin.

It felt good to shower not that she felt like she need to wash away the sins of the previous night Jeongyeon had just always found comfort in the running water. It refreshed her made her feel more positive for the day and today she’d decided to be brave she snuck out the shower cubicle in just a towel she knew she couldn’t pull it off as well as Sana but no many could. She quickly brushed her teeth and headed out into the sun heading quickly towards the lunch hall her cabin waiting for her by the doors 

“Alright guys in we go..”

Just as she went to open the door Momo came rushing past dragging a reluctant looking Sana behind her 

“They’re serving Jokbal today” 

Momo exclaimed and Sana mouthed a sorry as she pulled past them into the hall. 

Dahyun laughed stsaring

“That new dance teacher sure is weird”

They collected their food and Jeongyeon headed over to the table where the rest of the counsellors were sat taking her seat next to Sana who placed her hand carefully on Jeongyeon’s thigh

“Hi”

After a few moments of silence as they are Momo scoffing the Jokbal at an alarming and Sana occasionally turning to Jeongyeon a feed her a slice of carrot and much to the disgust of the rest of the table. Jihyo finally spoke up

“What is up with you two?”

A huge smile lighting up her face. 

“Us...”

Jeongyeon replied pointing to her and Sana catching Sana’s eye as she spoke

“Well... we’re dating now”

There it was she’d said she wasn’t even sure if Sana wanted that but she did and she’d said it she mentally prepared herself for the rejection she was sure would follow such a statement but it never came 

“She’s gonna take me out on a romantic meal as soon as camp is over”

Sana said beaming before leaning into to place a kiss on Jeongyeon’s cheek

“Urg can you not do that in front of my salad thanks”

Nayeon interjected with a fake look of disgust before changing to a softer expression  

“I’m glad you two have finally figured it out and got together”

The last two weeks passed in a blur of sporting activities, and sunshine Jeongyeon and Sana spent most of their free time just talking and arms wrapped around each other they still had a lot to catch up on as well as a lot of new memories to make together and then the day came. Jeongyeon found herself once again on that gravel pathway surrounded my hoards of kids with other stuffed backpacks, and tears in there eyes. Tzuyu had been sobbing uncontrollably since about 8am that morning which had also set Chaeyoung off who was currently clutching on the Mina’s arm with a much strength as she could muster Jeongyeon had to admit she was going to miss them sure they’d occasionally talk online but it’s never the same as camp nothing is that’s why she keeps coming back.

“I’ll see you next year”

Dahyun said as hugged her counsellor before heading off towards the buses she then said good bye to Tzuyu who sobbed into her shoulder. Chaeyoung couldn’t even look at her as she left the camp. It was over.  Jeongyeon felt that emptiness in her chest the same one she’d felt two years ago but she wasn’t going to cry if she’d learnt one thing this year it was that fate had a weird way of being people back together. She felt a hand snake round her waist, Sana’s. She wrapped her arm round the girls shoulder resting her head on top of the other girls. 

“This time I’m not letting you leave”

She tighten her grip ever so slightly

“Oh I have no intention of leaving”

Sana replied before the two turned to face each other kissing passionately as the sun slowly began to set in the Sky the last of the buses pulling out the lot. When they pulled apart the saw Jihyo, Nayeon and Momo running towards them each carrying a six pack of beers. The climbed the hill together and all sat around  an old picnic blanket Nayeon opened a basket  full of the left over food  from Camp Jihyo was playing silly tunes on her guitar as Momo clapped along. Sana was led on Jeongyeon’s lap Jeongyeon played with her hair while nursing a beer in the other hand.

“Promise we we’ll all meet up. the 5 of us before next Summer”

Nayeon asked

The all agreed to meet up and this time Jeongyeon was pretty sure it was one they could keep. She guess they were all scared the real world would ruin the magic of their friendship. 

So that’s how they stayed the five of them singing and drinking watching the sun set on another year at Camp JYP.
