The screen of your phone lit up from where it sat on the dashboard of Jungwoo's spaceship, and you immediately grabbed it. It was Donghyuck, and at this point, you would've taken your bestie 'SPAM LIKELY' to get you out of here.

"Hey, it's Hyuck, you got it here?" You asked Jungwoo, already on your feet.

"Yes, I'll be okay," Jungwoo confirmed, eyes momentarily leaving the screen to meet yours.

You clambered out of the hatch with haste, taking off into the trees. Hastily sending Donghyuck a text that you'd call him back in a minute, you practically bolted back up the cliffside to get to the road before doing just that.

Hyuck picked up before it could even ring once, not wasting any time, "Hey, how's our pet alien?"

"He has a name," you retorted, still out of breath.

"He doesn't seem to mind when I call him that."

"He probably doesn't understand how derogatory it could be. His language might not have a direct equivalent for the concept."

"Yeah, whatever, how is he?"

"Fine. All of his wounds have healed."

Your friend's tone immediately shifted. "You sound weird. What's going on?"

"Nothing!" You insisted.

"Y/N."

"Promise not to tell anyone?"

"Sure."

And so after explaining your situation to Donghyuck to the best of your ability, you waited with bated breath for his response.

"Oh my God, he's going to lay his eggs in you," he gasped.

"Hyuck! Gross!" You hissed, half-ready to hang up right then.

"I've seen enough alien movies to know where this is going."

"Or watched too much weird porn."

"You didn't laugh at my joke, clearly you're in crisis, sorry." His apology sounded sincere.

You sighed, staring down into the trees below you that you knew contained a spaceship and spaceman that weren't from here, that didn't belong here. "I mean, he's still fixing his ship to leave..."

"What if he plans on abducting you and taking you with him?"

"Stop it!" You scolded him again. "Jungwoo wouldn't do that."

"You seriously think he'll just leave his mate behind?"

"You are way too comfortable saying that word."

"This is not about my nighttime proclivities."

"If I told him to, yeah, I think he would. He's been super respectful, all things considered."

"Okay... whatever..."
