   “    THAT MEANS THAT   i have spared you this torture thus far.   ”   patrocles says with a roll of his eyes.   the sailor brings the razor to his cheek   ,   artfully shaving his beard.   by now   ,   he’d mastered the ability to shave on a rocky ship.   on land   ,   it was even easier.    “   for now   ,   sit there and bear with me as i shave.   it will only be a few more minutes.   we can go as soon as i’m beautiful   ,   greyjoy.   ”

Early mornings were never James’s preferred time of day, nonetheless he simply had to get up, work was painfully mandatory after all. James quietly removed the sheets as Sumin was still dozing off, he paused for a second and looked at her, the way she slept was strangely adorable. 

He bent over and grabbed his sweater from the floor along various other belongings such as his socks, phone and shirt. James slowly crept into the kitchen to grab his backpack, as he was picking up his backpack he glanced out the window panes, the sky, painted with shades of dark blue with pigments of light orange from the sun just rising ever so slightly due to the fact that it was just past 5am, left James in complete awe. 

As he made his way over to the door, the memories of the night crept its way back into his mind, both him and Sumin had both had such an enjoyable night, they talked, they laughed, they enjoyed simply being in the presence of one another. It had been a while, for both of them in fact, since they had laughed and smiled that much in the company of a person of the opposite sex. James gripped the door knob tightly, he froze still for a second and smiled to himself reminiscing about the thoughts of last night. Just as he was about to gently turn the knob, someone had come up behind him and hugged him from behind wrapping their arms around his body and embracing him. It was Sumin.

“What are you doing Sumie?” he asked her, his lips curled into a soft smile as he slowly turned around. Once he had turned around Sumin wrapped her arms around him once more this time burying her face inside of his chest. “I have to go now Sumie…I’ll be late” he told her as he stroked her hair, running his fingers through her long soft strands of dark brown hair. “Thank you for last night, I had the best night ever but…I’ve got to go now” he told her as he pouted slightly whilst she looked up at him into his eyes whilst still clinging on to him tightly. “I know but…” she said quietly, James could feel the vibration of her voice inside of his chest.

It was a warm summer’s morning, the moist air blew swiftly all around instantly warming up everything in the vicinity. The windows were opened ever so slightly in order to ventilate the entire house, allowing for the breeze to flow through. 

Sumin was inside the kitchen cooking James’s usual favourite breakfast: pancakes with extra butter and blueberry jam dribbled over. Sumin made sure to add extra powdered sugar since she knew how much James loved sweet things. James walked up to her and hugged her from behind, he had to bend over slightly (due to his status as a giant) to be able to hug her from behind, he wrapped his arms around her abdomen and sunk his chin into one side of her shoulder whilst she was preparing the pancakes for him. “…and extra sugar since this giant over here has a sweet tooth” she sarcastically joked at him whilst grabbing his nose and squeezing it all the while squinting her face at him. James laughed out loud as his lips greeted her bright pink cheeks, giving her a soft kiss. 

“My name is James Lee, I believe it’s June 28th 2015″ he told her whilst he laid there to the side of the road. Although he was confused, seeing the woman’s face made him feel oddly safe and secure as if she had happened to be here to catch him just in time by an act of fate. The touch of her hand against his cheeks calmed him down, his heart beat began to slow down as did his breathing, it was as if the touch of her skin was like a shot of morphine directly into his heart.
