The Bodyguard (A Monsta X Fanfiction)

Chapter Twenty Four: Sushi

We returned rather quietly to our hotel room. It was only mid day, so we had quite a while before Hyungwon and I would go on our dinner "date." The group decided that we should go swimming in the pool, since we didn't have much luck with the ocean.

I changed into my bathing suit, a simple black triangle string bikini. Shownu and Hyungwon seemed pretty excited about going to the pool, Wonho was still very quiet. I assumed the hangover was still lingering. While we took the elevator down to the pool, I was the only one not in a conversation, lost in my own thoughts.

'What did I do to get caught in a love triangle with two completely attractive guys?'

The elevator opened and the boys rushed the pool. I walked after them, also excited to go swimming. But I was just so caught up in my thoughts that I was much slower than everyone else.

"You okay?" Wonho lagged behind when he saw me walking slowly.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I smiled, "What about you, you've been really quiet..."

Wonho stared at the ground, forcing a smile as we walked towards the pool. "I just... don't like the idea of you going on a date with someone else. Especially not a guy as attractive as Hyungwon, I mean look at him."

Wonho motioned in the direction of Hyungwon who, as if on call, tripped and fell into the pool. He tried to play it off as something he had done on purpose.

"Anyway, I can tell he likes you." Wonho sighed, "I've never seen Hyungwon not glare at a girl that isn't a monbebe. He looks at you differently."

"Wait, you're saying he glares at every girl that isn't a fan?" I asked, laughing.

"Damn right he does." Wonho laughed too, "Anyway, that's not really the point. I want you to have fun while we're on vacation, but not too much fun, you know?"

I nodded.

'Maybe this would be a good time to tell Wonho that Hyungwon also confessed to me?'

But I still didn't want to start any drama, so I kept it to myself.

"Let's go have some fun in the pool." I said, grabbing Wonho's wrist to drag him to the water.

I was laying out on a sun chair after about an hour of swimming had passed, sipping on a hibiscus soda. The boys were still in the pool, splashing each other and enjoying their time as normal citizens. Luckily, there were no fans staying at the hotel, so the boys went unrecognized.

I couldn't imagine being a celebrity and not being able to go outside without people following you. That would be unbearable.

"I'm tired..." Hyungwon sighed, coming to lay down in the chair right next to mine.

I glanced up at him from my drink before going back to admire the flower and umbrella placed in it. His hair was soaking wet and sticking to his face. I couldn't stop my eyes from drifting down to his stomach, noticing he was pretty toned for a skinny guy.

"Hello?" Hyungwon asked, waving in my face. "My eyes are up here."

"Yeah, I'm tired too." I replied, looking back at the pool.

Sunbathing sure could take a lot out of you.

"So what time do you want to go to dinner?" Hyungwon asked nonchalantly.
