After shopping, they returned to the apartment. Evelyn didn't say a word to Ji-Ah and went straight to the shower. Ji-Ah smirked, knowing Evelyn was still sulking, but she let her be.
Once Evelyn finished, she slipped into bed without acknowledging Ji-Ah. Not one to be ignored, Ji-Ah took her own shower, then walked out wearing nothing but a robe. She strolled over to the bed and poked Evelyn's cheek.
"Are you seriously sleeping?" Ji-Ah asked, tilting her head. "Still mad?"
Evelyn didn't even open her eyes. "I'm not mad," she muttered and turned her back to Ji-Ah.
Ji-Ah leaned in, brushing her lips near Evelyn's, trying to get her attention. But Evelyn moved away, refusing to let her kiss her.
Ji-Ah sighed dramatically. "Just so you know," she whispered against Evelyn's ear, "I'm not wearing anything under this robe." Then, pulling back slightly, she added with a teasing tone, "Not stopping you if you wanna do something about it."
Evelyn's heart skipped a beat. Ji-Ah had been acting strange all week, and now this? She clenched her jaw, refusing to react even though her fingers twitched with the urge to turn around.
Ji-Ah waited for a moment, but when Evelyn didn't move, she took matters into her own hands. She slipped off her robe and slid under the blanket, wrapping her arms around Evelyn. She nuzzled against her neck, her warm breath sending a shiver down Evelyn's spine.
Evelyn bit her lip. She could feel her, every inch of her, and it was driving her insane.
Ji-Ah smirked. "Still ignoring me?"
Evelyn finally caved, turning around in one swift motion. She kissed Ji-Ah, all the frustration from the past days melting into something else entirely.
As Evelyn pulled the blanket down, taking in the sight before her, Ji-Ah flushed. "Stop staring," she mumbled.
Evelyn chuckled, her voice low. "Then stop teasing."
Ji-Ah smirked but didn't protest when Evelyn leaned in again.
Evelyn couldn't hold back anymore. She pressed soft, lingering kisses down Ji-Ah's body, her hands tracing every curve with tenderness and longing. Ji-Ah's breath caught as Evelyn's lips wandered lower, teasing, making her shiver beneath her touch.
"You're beautiful," Evelyn murmured against her skin, her voice low and warm. She took her time, savoring each reaction, each quiet gasp, until Ji-Ah's fingers twisted in the sheets, overwhelmed by the slow, deliberate pace.
Ji-Ah clung to her, lost in the sensation, trembling as Evelyn finally pushed her over the edge. Her breath came in uneven whispers, and in that moment, the only name on her lips was Evelyn's.
Evelyn kissed her gently, pulling her close. "Still mad at me?" she asked, a teasing smile in her voice.
Ji-Ah, still breathless, shot her a half-hearted glare before tucking her face into Evelyn's neck. "Just shut up and hold me."
Evelyn chuckled, wrapping her arms around her. "Gladly."
