"It's 2 AM already, where is she?"

"I don't know—" Lucas was cut off by a drunk guy who almost puked on him. Luckily, he managed to avoid it. "Sorry, I was kinda late. You know, fling duties and all."

"You seriously need to stop flirting with different girls every week." Winter said. "Anyway, we're getting out of topic, where is she?"

"Still can't find her—oh there she is!" Lucas exclaimed as soon as he saw a drunk Karina at the kitchen, sitting on a stool chair. 

"Does she have someone with her?"

"Uh, no. Her friends are missing. I saw Giselle and Ningning making out behind a tree outside." Lucas casually said, although he was a little shocked when he saw it earlier. "She's with Sunghoon, though."

Winter groaned. "Again?"

"Yup. And she's drunk, really drunk." The Jock chuckled. "So…are you going here or not?"

"Definitely going there." 

Lucas could hear Winter starting the car from the background.

"Goodluck buddy, seems like you're going to take care of a drunk person tonight."

"Uh-huh." Winter chuckled. "I gotta go." 

"Okay, drive safely!"

The call ended. 

Meanwhile, a drunk Karina is currently chugging a bottle of beer, while Sunghoon is trying to stop her from finishing it. 

"Karina, that's your tenth bottle for tonight." He said, holding the girl's arm.

Karina pushed him away. "Let me! I'm having *hic!* fun!"

Sunghoon could only sigh in exhaustion. 

"Ugh, what am I going to do with you?" 

He looked around, before glancing at Karina. "I'm going to find your friends, okay? Stay here." 

The girl laughed, waving her hands in front of him. "Yeah, yeah!" 

Sunghoon left, and Karina continued chugging on the beer again. 

The idea of loosening up to a big ass party was very risky for Karina, since the people inside the house are all strangers to her except for her friends. But she thought that maybe, in this way, she can stop her mind from thinking about Winter. 

"Baby…Winter…"

But no, the alcohol didn't help her to forget at all. Her mind is clouded with thoughts that consist of only one person, and that is Winter Kim. 

I guess this is a bitter end I didn't see coming,
And I'm havin' a little bit of trouble accepting, too

"Oh, come on!" 

If she could curse the person who picked the song that is currently playing right now, she would. 

But she can't stand up, she's too drunk to even lift her head up. 

I don't know what to say to you
There's nothing I can do to reset your point of view

Winter. Winter. Winter.

All that she could think about is Winter and all the memories that she created with the singer. 

We both said this was just physical
Well, one of us lied, can't set feelings aside, truth be told, yeah

"God, I'm gonna go *hic!* crazy." 

You asked to see me once again at half past ten
I got nervous, so I got faded, made things complicated

"Karina…" 

I'm sorry for the stupid shit I said
You ordered fun, I served you threats

Karina froze as soon as she heard the voice that called her. 

She can't be mistaken.

She knows who it belongs to. 

It's probably good you left 'cause I finally admit

Karina quickly turned to look at the person. 

"Winter…"

I like you, I like you, I like you
Sorry, I never meant to

"Hey." Winter walked closer, slowly raising her hands up to fix the messy strands of hair that were blocking Karina's face. 

But who are we kidding, it wasn't like I had a say
One look at you and I won't have it any other way

"Winter…"

The singer smiled at her. 

"Let's go home."

I want you, I want you, I want you
I want you to want me, too

Winter held Karina's arm and wrapped it around her shoulders. She helped Karina to stand up from the chair, and the latter just let her. 

She was too stunned to even speak. 

I know that I signed up for this casually,
But I fell for your tricks, I'm the casualty

Winter and Karina were about to exit the kitchen, when Sunghoon suddenly came, blocking their way.

"Karina, I can't find your—" Sunghoon stopped as soon as he saw a stranger holding his friend. "Who are you? Why are you taking her?"

"Winter Kim." The singer flatly said. "I'm taking my girl home. Can you step aside?"

Sunghoon could only oblige as he watched the two walk away from him.

Winter Kim.

He remembered that name. 

Can we just reset, restart and then replay?
Take me back to when all
You wanted was to love on me everyday, yeah

"Where are your friends?" Winter asked, gripping on Karina's waist tightly while looking around. "Why did they even leave you alone here?"

The drunk girl didn't speak. She was just staring at Winter's face, as if she still can't believe that the singer is with her. 

Winter and Karina got out of the house. They approached Winter's car and the latter was about to put the drunk girl inside. 

But suddenly, Karina pushed her away. 

I like you, I like you, I like you
Words I will never hear from you
Wishing I could turn back the hands of time,
To when I feel your hands on me
And your lips on mine

"W-wait…" Karina stumbled. Winter was about to help her, but she just pushed the singer away again. "What are you *hic!* doing here?"

"I'm taking you home." 

Something 'bout you makes me difficult,
But that makes us even 'cause you top of the charts

"Taking me h-home?" Karina laughed. "You…you rejected me, remember? a-and now you're *hic!* suddenly acting like nothing happened?"

Winter sighed. 

She knew she couldn't avoid this one. 

Egotistical, it's so typical
For me to fall for your kind

"I did that for a reason, baby." Winter stepped closer. "We can talk about it later, okay? I'm taking you home first." 

Winter wanted to hold the girl. But for the third time, Karina pushed her away again. 

"N-no!"

But, oh God, I wish you were mine

"Karina—"

"For what reason?" Karina exclaimed. "To hurt me? To pull an experiment on me? I wouldn't even be surprised if you did this because of a dare!"

I like you, I like you, I like you
Sorry, I never meant to
But who are we kidding, it wasn't like I had a say
One look at you and I won't have it any other way

"I know it n-now, okay?" Karina muttered and looked up, trying to prevent the tears that was about to fall from her eyes. "I get it. You're a red flag. That was what I've been trying to know since the beginning, r-right? I get it. I get it." 

I want you, I want you, I want you
I want you to want me to

"That's not true." 

"What's even true about all of this?!" Karina faced her. "I don't even know if you were lying to me the whole time! I don't know if you were just pretending to be that good person in front of me just so I could fall for you!" 

She stepped back, "Just…just leave me alone, okay? You won. You got me. J-just go away…" 

Would it be a stretch if I asked you to try again?
I'll be patient, I swear I'll even count to ten

Winter stepped closer, wrapping an arm around Karina's waist and pulling her close. 

The singer's other hand went to the drunk girl's cheek, cupping it. 

"This…" She whispered, staring at Karina's eyes. "This is the truth."

One, two, three, four, five
Fuck it

She finally closed the gap.

Can we just reset, restart and then replay 
Take me back to when all
You wanted was to love on me every day, yeah

Karina's eyes widened when she felt Winter's lips on hers. She tried to push Winter's shoulders, but the latter just held her more close and deepened the kiss. 

"Don't hold back…" The singer whispered when she pulled away to catch her breath. "Because I won't anymore." 

She kissed Karina again, and this time, the latter slowly gave in. 

I like you, I like you, I like you
Words I won't ever hear from you 

"W-winter…" Karina mumbled. 

The singer pulled away again. 

Wishin' I could turn back the hands of time
To when "I like you" was only just a secret crime

"No more rumors, Karina…" She said,

"I like you, and that's the truth."

Karina doesn't know how they ended up in Winter's backseat, with the latter on top of her. 

She feels really dizzy, and all she could think of is Winter and the kisses that the singer is giving on her neck. 

"Hmm…"

She felt Winter's warm hand slipping inside her shirt, which made her shiver. 

"Winter…" Karina pulled the singer up and kissed her. 

Winter groaned when the taller girl sucked her lower lip. Both hands are now inside Karina's shirt, caressing her waist. 

Karina pulled away and stared at Winter's eyes. "Go up." 

"Sure?"

She nodded.

Winter kissed Karina's forehead as her hands went up to the taller girl's bra, slipping it inside. 

"Fuck." The singer mumbled. 

'So soft.'

She dived into Karina' neck, placing soft kisses down to the girl's collarbone.

She glanced at Karina's bosom.

"Can I?"

Karina didn't speak.

Winter lifted her head up to look at the girl, and what she saw made her chuckle. 

Karina fell asleep. 

Winter pulled her hands away from Karina's bosom and fixed the girl's shirt. 

She placed another kiss on Karina's forehead. 

"Sleep tight, baby."
