The Bodyguard (A Monsta X Fanfiction)

Chapter Eighteen: Beach Time

Buckle in, this is a long one

_____________________________________________

I woke up facing the window to see the beautiful Hawaiian ocean view. I sat up in my bed, wanting to admire the view even more, when I saw Wonho standing by the window. He had opened the curtains to wake us all up.

"Rise and shine!" Wonho cheered.

I glanced over at the other bed to see Hyungwon and Shownu groaning at the sudden light.

"What time is it?" Hyungwon grunted, pulling the blanket over his head.

"9 am." Wonho smiled, "Way too late to be waking up in Hawaii!"

"I'm tired!" Hyungwon argued, "Ten more minutes..."

Shownu finally gave up, sitting up in his bed. He looked dazed, staring out in front of him as if he was contemplating the meaning of life.

"I want to go to the beach today!" Wonho exclaimed. "Who wouldn't want to swim in that beautiful water?"

"Me!" Hyungwon yelled, "I want to sleep!"

"Well, me and Jiyeon are going to the beach with or without you guys." Wonho taunted.

"Huh?" I turned my head in Wonho's direction.

'When did I agree to that?'

"Fine, I'll go." Hyungwon sighed.

"I'm going to put on my bathing suit." Wonho smiled, disappearing into the bathroom.

I got out of bed to go to the balcony. Our window overlooked the pool of the resort, and I could already see tourists already swimming.

'This place really is paradise...'

"It must have been great to go to college here." Shownu said, standing next to me. Now that the sun was up, the ocean seemed to glow under its rays.

"Yeah..." I agreed, but then I remembered that I was supposed to have gone to college here, "I mean, yes! It was amazing. I went swimming every day!"

I laughed, trying to compensate for my nervousness. I walked back into the hotel room just in time to see Wonho come out of the bathroom. He was wearing just his swimming trunks, his six pack on full view.

I blushed, Trying not to stare. I grabbed my bathing suit and hurried into the bathroom.

Once I was on my own and could breath freely. I stared at myself in the mirror.

'Come on, you weren't this nervous around him just a day ago. Why are you being like this?'

I washed my face and applied sunscreen before changing into my bathing suit.

"I'm not nervous, I'm just excited to go swimming!" I lied to my reflection.

I decided to wear a bathing suit that I had splurged on while in California. It was a bikini with metal heart details. I was going to get a hell of a tan line, but it was super cute so it would be worth it.
