13: Stuck: Hear my Cries

Third Person

"I never wanted that kiss." The older girl breaks the silence but it seemed that the latter never wanted that. She turned to face the older girl and gave her an uninteresting look.

"Oh come on, spare me!" She whined and tried to look for something that will get them out of this secluded island. Something like an inflatable boat or something useful, she doesn't care, just as long as it can get her out of here.

"Why wouldn't you just please listen to me Jeongyeon?" She pleaded but the doctor slammed the table and shouted.

"Because I might believe you Nayeon!" She leaned on the small kitchen countertop and put her hands on her forehead. She calmed herself before continuing.

"Because I'm stupid enough to take you back if ever you'll explain yourself to me. I'm stupid enough to love you even if it fucking hurts like hell to do that. So please Nayeon, spare me from another heartbreak. I'm begging you."

Tears flooded her face and her heart beats in a fast pace for speaking out her thoughts without even having the chance to breath.

She made her way to the only room that there is and slammed the door behind her. She lie down on the bed and stared at the ceiling questioning herself.

'Why am I here?'

They were both stuck in an island with no boats nor a single creature present. They don't have their phones, or anything to use to call for help.

They just woke up on a shack with only their bags with them. Both are awkward with the situation, but one is glad and one is mad.

One thing that's bothering Jeongyeon is that they have to sleep in one bedroom, and sharing one bed with Nayeon will only remind her of how happy they used to be. 

And it sucks for her to think that she'll regret the decisions she made when she broke up with her a month ago.

Their friends doesn't seem to accept the fact that after everything that the couple went through, they'll just end it because one refused to listen and one is too considerate that she can't even explain herself.

That's the reason why they are here. To reconcile with each other and bring back the happiness that they lost. The faith that their friends have on them brought them here.

Flashback...

"Are you sure about this?" The ginger coloured hair girl asked the tall fella beside her.

"Of course, I am. How about you? Are you sure we can believe Nayeon unnie?" The younger girl tapped her fingers on the table.

"I've lived with her for like a decade. I know when she's lying or not." She ensured the tall girl and held it's hand that's tapping on the table. "Trust me on this Tzuyu-ah."

The latter smiled and started to dial her sister's phone number. Two rings and she answered the call right away.

"Oh Tzuyu-ah. Why did you call?" Tzuyu bacame nervous because of her sister's sweet welcome, it makes her doubt if she's really doing this or not.

"Can't I call my sister when I feel like it?" They both chuckled. "How are you doing?" The young girl asked and she heard a sigh from the latter.

"I'm not doing good. You know that." She downcast said and Tzuyu let out a sigh because of that.

"Let's go on a vacation unnie." Tzuyu initiated the first step of their plan. She tapped her shoes in nervousness, her sister might decline the offer.

"Sure, Tzu. When and where are you planning?" Tzuyu stood up and excitedly held her fist up for her success.

"That'll be a surprise unnie. Just pack your things for a week of vacation." She said and earned an 'okay' from her sister before hanging up.

She and the ginger coloured hair girl both jumped in happiness because of their success in making Jeongyeon agree.

"I'll talk to Nayeon unnie later, but I wouldn't tell her about the plan. I'll ask the other members for help also." The older girl said that made the younger girl smiled at her.

"Thankyou, Sana-chan." She said and pecked the older girl in the cheeks that made the japanese blush in the sudden behavior. "Come on I'll treat you lunch." She pulled the girl and took her to her car.

They both know they liked each other, but they're both denying the fact that their head over heels inlove with the same stranger that they met in Jeju.

... End of flashback

The plan was simply to make Jeongyeon and Nayeon believe that they were just going on a vacation, a nice vacation.

They rode on the same plane but far from each other's seat. Nayeon was with her members and Jeongyeon is with her sister, Mina and Chaeyoung.

The seven of them planned this together starting with Sana and Tzuyu. They took the two on the shack after putting sleeping pills on the two's drinks.

It was literally kidnapping, but they want to know how hopeless the couple would be after a spending a week with each other in a secluded island.

They chose to take them there so that Jeongyeon will have nowhere to ran off to and she can't kick Nayeon out.

This will be the first and last time that they will help the couple, if ever it wouldn't work out. Then it's done, they will give up too.

"Damn I'm hungry." Jeongyeon said to herself and stared at the ceiling of the room while laying on the bed that is wide enough for two.

There's only one room in the shack, no couch and no beddings to use other than what's on the bed. One blanket and two pillows, they literally wanted to make the two stick with each other.

She stood up and walked out of the room to find something to eat on the kitchen. She looks for something that is ready to eat or is quick to make.

"There you are." She said as she found a ramyun in one of the shelf.

She was about to cook it for herself but she remembered that she's not alone here in the island. She grabbed two and made it for the both of them.

"How am I going to call her here?" She asked to herself while walking back and forth on the kitchen's hallway. "I should just go to her." She said then proceeded to find the older girl.

She looked at the living room, but the girl wasn't there. She tried her luck to find the latter in the room and in the bathroom but she wasn't there.

"Is she outside?" She made her way outside to look for the girl and she still wasn't there.

Jeongyeon started to worry and her heart is beating so loudly. She ran outside to look for the girl but the place isn't showing her anyone.

"Damn it Im Nayeon! Where the hell are you?" She ran to the beach hoping for the girl to show, she wandered her eyes around.

And there she saw Nayeon, sitting on the side of the beach hugging her knees trying to warm herself because of the coldness.

"Yah! Im Nayeon!" Jeongyeon shouted out of anger. But not because she hated the girl, but because she got worried sick.

The older girl stood up in surprise because of the latter's sudden outburst. She thought Jeongyeon would nag at her but instead, the girl welcomed her with a hug, a tight hug.

"Where the hell have you been?" Worry was evident on the younger girl's voice and Nayeon can't help but shed a tear because of that.

She wrapped her arms on Jeongyeon's waist, claiming the opportunity on feeling the warmth of her ex lover. Oh how she misses this, she missed being on this arm that feels safe, the only arm that she wanted to hold her.

"I thought you don't want to see me." She said but Jeongyeon didn't speak so she took the opportunity to tell what she wanted to tell her for the past month. "I seriously didn't cheat on you Jeong." She said under her sobs and hug the younger girl tightly.

When Jeongyeon heard that, she came back to her senses. She cleared her throat and tried to let go of the older girl, but Nayeon tightened her grip around her waist even more.

She was scared that if she let go right now, she will really lose Jeongyeon.

"I'll listen to you, but let's go inside first." Jeongyeon sincerely said and pulled the shivering girl inside.

She wasn't ready to listen yet, but it wouldn't hurt give it a shot right? Just this once, she would surrender her pride and give Nayeon a chance.

Flashback...

Nayeon sighed after her girlfriend disappeared from her sight. She wanted to make the girl stay but she promised to talk to Jinyoung tonight.

The guy called her at the airport yesterday when they arrived and asked her if they could atleast talk. She felt guilty for abandoning the one who had been there for her the whole time when Jeongyeon isn't.

She agreed to talk and Jinyoung insisted on going to her instead of meeting her somewhere else when it's nine in the evening.

She was fluttered by the guy's concern so she agreed on that too, that's why she told Jeongyeon to go home and told Jinyoung to meet her on her new apartment.

Just a few minutes after her girlfriend left, the doorbell rang. She made her way to open it and she was welcomed by a drunk Jinyoung.

"Are you drunk?" She asked and checked on the guy, but he fell on her shoulders, leaning its head on her.

"Nayeon-ah." He whispered and pushed the door close behind him. Nayeon pushed him on the shoulders and took a look at his face.

"Let's talk tomorrow Jinyoung-ah. You're drunk, just go home." She said out of full concern. Jinyoung straightened himself and face the girl that she adored for a long time

"You're supposed to be mine Nayeon, not anyone else. I waited for years and I won't lose that easily." He crashed his lips into her. Forcing himself on Nayeon as if the girl will return his feelings if he'll do this.

Sure love can change a person overnight.

Nayeon tried her best to escape with all her strength to the point that her tears are pitifully falling, but everything seemed hopeless.

She was pushed and pinned on the wall by the guy she trusted for years. She was supposed to think of herself at this crucial time, but all she can think about is Jeongyeon.

She wanted her lips to be owned by the only person that she loves and that's Jeongyeon. Those lips that should be only owned by Jeongyeon and not anyone else.

And in that point where her mind is speaking of her lover, in that certain point where she lost her strength to pushed the guy away, the door opened and showed Jeongyeon.

Jinyoung loosened his grip and that's when Nayeon took the chance to push him away. She looked at the surprised girl hoping that Jeongyeon will pull her away from the guy who abused her precious lips. But what happened is the exact opposite.

"What the fuck?!" Jeongyeon said and walked away. Nayeon's heart sting at the scene. Did Jeongyeon thought she was cheating?

She became nervous at the thought. What if she loses Jeongyeon because of this? She needed to go to her and explain herself.

She was about to ran after her girlfriend but Jinyoung wrapped his arms around her from behind.

"I'm sorry Nayeon. Please don't ran after her, please choose me." The guy begged and held tighter on Nayeon.

"You're disgusting Jinyoung. Get off me!" She shouted and pushed the guy's arms away. "I never thought you'd be like this. Never ever show your face to me ever again."

"Nayeon please." He reached out for the girl's hand but she pulled herself away and land a slapped on Jinyoung's face.

"I'll never tell this to anyone. Just don't fucking show yourself to me again asshole." Nayeon remarked and kicked him on the knees before running after her girlfriend.

She pressed on the elevator multiple times as if she was about to break the buttons. When the door opened, she immediately got in and pressed for the 1st floor.

She was impatiently fiddling with her fingers until the elevator stopped midway. The lights died and it seemed that the elevator stopped working.

She pressed to the first floor again hoping that it'll work this time but it didn't. She pressed the emergency button and hoping that help will come soon.

Because of rushing, she didn't notice the sign that the elevator was broken, and because of that she failed to follow her lover and explain herself. She fell on her knees and cried her heart out, she was not crying because she was stuck in an elevator.

She was crying because she might lose the person she longed to be with. The person she loved with all of her heart for the past 10 years without a hitch.

... End of Flashback

Jeongyeon couldn't believe everything that she heard, the girl did try to ran after her but failed to do so because of that fucking elevator.

She realized that if only she had listen to her that day in front of the school, then things wouldn't have to get this far. No hearts would be broken further and no time would be wasted questioning her self's worth.

If only she did that, then maybe they'll still be together by now. She thought that after all those times, it was her fault to begin with.

"As soon as I got rescued I went to your condo unit but you weren't there. So I asked Tzuyu to find you because I have no idea where to start looking for you." The sobbing girl said under her tears. "I stayed there the whole night waiting for you but you didn't come." She bowed her head and let the older girl speak. She was embarrassed to even take a look at Nayeon.

"Then Tzuyu called me the next morning and told me that you were fine. But she said I should give you some time, and so I did."

'So that's why she didn't tried to talk to me the whole week' Jeongyeon thought.

"I gave you a week, then I asked Jihyo and her boyfriend for help so that I can talk to you. And, it was that night." The downcast girl said and Jeongyeon couldn't help but feel apologetic towards her girlfriend. She pushed her away after so many efforts.

"I uhm I'm sorry, I didn't know." The younger girl burried her face on her hands out of shame.

First, she failed to protect her girlfriend from an obsessed disgusting asshole. Second, she pushed her away and broke up with her without hearing the girl out. And lastly, she made her cry for the nth time. Of course she was ashamed.

The older girl cupped her cheeks and lifted her head to connect their eyes.

"I should be the one saying sorry, love. I'm sorry. Will you forgive me now?" The girl asked and Jeongyeon's heart couldn't help but flutter by the way her lover looks at her.

Full of love and affection. Jeongyeon couldn't help herself anymore so she crashed her lips onto the older girl's. Swaying them along with the rhythm of their heartbeats until they both ran out of air. They rested their foreheads on each other.

"Does that answer your question now?" She playfully asked and a smile played on her girlfriend's lips.

"I think I need more, clarification."

Jeongyeon didn't waste anymore time and claimed her girlfriend's luscious lips. Holding the girl on the nape deepening their kiss along with the deepening evening. It was full of love and longing, their kisses are always like that.

Nayeon wrapped her arms around Jeongyeon's waist that made the kiss even more passionate that made the latter ended up on top of her. Claiming the lips that should only be hers.

Both doesn't want to let go but Jeongyeon's stomach doesn't seem to be on her side after it growled now for the third time.

"I think we should eat something first love." The older girl teased her girlfriend and Jeongyeon buried her face on Nayeon's chest in embarrassment. "Come on, we'll continue this later." She then pulled the girl who's as red as a tomato now into the kitchen.

They now totally forgot the fact that they were stuck in an island, they just know that they finally settled their misunderstanding and they're now back in each other's arms.
