InfinityMoonbyul's POV
“Right now.” she knew she was walking on thin ice making such a question but she couldn't help herself.
It had been months since she had had a proper conversation with Yongsun and now that she was here, right at her side, she wanted to do the most of the time they had together. She was ready, she knew it deep inside. She had been working for this moment for a long time now.
When Yongsun gave her a faint nod and began to walk in a random direction she didn't hesitate to follow her.
She thought she was in the moon.
Walking late at night with Yongsun at her side instead of that awful club full of sweaty people. She discretly took her phone out and sent a quick message to Wheein and Hyejin telling them to come back home without her.
