"Are you ready?"asked Yujin, panting slightly and wiping her sweat off her forehead with the back of her hand. She watched as Minju lifted her head up from her cellphone in hand. Amusement was painted all over her delicate features. Shoving the device into her back pocket, the smaller one walked towards Yujin, only for the younger to take a step back.

"Too sweaty," she responded instantly after receiving a confused expression from the latter. But Minju only shook her head with a pretty grin before reaching into her bag and taking out a face towel, swinging it back and forth between her pinched fingers in front of Yujin's flushed face.

"And, naturally, you forgot your towel again." Yujin sent a lopsided grin with a shrug of the shoulders, 

"Naturally."

It was an unspoken routine of theirs. More like habit. After practice, Yujin would "somehow" forget a towel and Minju would "somehow" have one ready for her.

Minju chuckled before taking another step forward. With one hand, she gently pushed Yujin's bangs to the side while the other began to dab the sweat off her skin. And, seeing the smaller one crunch her nose cutely after accidentally touching the sweat, Yujin giggled quietly.

"Told you I was sweaty." Minju rolled her eyes before dabbing the towel onto her cheeks,

"You keep pushing yourself too hard," she pointed out, letting go of the bangs and placing a loose strand of hair behind Yujin's ear. Yujin laughed and nodded,

"Guilty." Responded Yujin a little too overly confident. She felt rather smug having a beautiful girl close and taking care of her. What would be better was if she was able to call Minju hers. Now that would be something, wouldn't it?

The round eyed playfully narrowed before it drifted down, lower, towards Yujin's collar bone. And when she dragged the towel across the bone, Yujin felt her fingertips dragging along with the towel, as if to trace her skin with her warm touches. Was it intentional? Yujin had no clue. But seeing Minju's eyes hold that look that resembled wonder, the flicker of arousal in those focused eyes must've been in her head.

Right?

Time felt slow, or was Minju's movement slowing down as it reached the base of her neck. The fabric was gentle against her warm skin. Warm and Pink. Just the mere sight of Minju's parting her lips slightly as those intense eyes watched Yujin's throat bob up and down anxiously had her furiously blushing. Yujin could practically hear her heart pounding against her bones. It was loud, but not loud enough to distract her from Minju slowly meeting her own gaze. Minju visibly gulped, 

"Done." She whispered. When was she so close? Yujin could practically feel her warm, minty breath tickling her lips, as if it was trying to pull her closer.

"Wow, why is it so hot over here?"
