i bet we'd have really good bеd chem

Summary:

"What do you know about masochism?” Matthew’s hands pressed thigher in Jiwoong’s abdomen and the oldest almost dropped the wineglass he was washing.

“Hm… like in Fifty Shades of Grey?” Jiwoong asked, taking a deep breath.

“Well… not exactly like in that shitty movie! But... how would you feel if I asked you to hit me?” Matthew asked with no shame and Jiwoong blinked at the idea” Jiwoong chuckled and bit his bottom lip.

“Like… hard?” Jiwoong asked. Just to make sure.

“Yes, babe, hard. More like spanking me…” Jiwoong closed the dryer and turned his body to Matthew’s, kind of unsure on how to continue the conversation.

(OR: Matthew tries to convince his not-so-vanilla boyfriend into spanking him but starting the conversation in the worst way possible.)

Notes:

I honestly should be ashamed of how long it took me to post this and I also should have rocks thrown at me for making this a multi chaptered work... I swear the tweet I saw and inspired me to write this is almost one year old today and Jiwoong was still blonde when I wrote the first part... LET THAT SINK IN :[

Also, a ton of things have happened since I stopped writing this (or anything related to zb1). i've unfortunately grew apart of them because of their shitty company, I had a terrible moment where I stopped being remotely creative, I've decided to get my driver's license and I've also graduated from college so... A LOT has changed except for the love I feel for Matthew and Jiwoong so in a random Sunday I've decided to post this and try to make my creative side spark again (I really hope it happens so I can finish this hehehe).

Long note, huh... if you have read up to this point, I want to tell everyone that this work is not my idea in the first place and I was inspired from this tweet from this amazing writer that let me take the inspo!! I'd also want to remember everyone that's reading that English is not my first language and that you can feel free to send me a message to correct any terrible grammar mistakes I make!

Fic title from bed chem by Sabrina Carpenter and the chapters' titles are from So It Goes... by Taylor Swift ^^ my blondies.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1: I'm yours to keep and I'm yours to lose

Chapter Text

Jiwoong knew that Matthew liked different things in the bedroom and since they started going out. In his 25 years of living, the oldest has had a few sexual relationships, mostly vanilla. Now, everything was different because he was dating Seok Matthew and the Canadian could be characterized as anything but vanilla.

Their sex life has been crazy since they started going out a few months ago. Matthew had told Jiwoong about the way he liked things, the way he would like to be treated and Jiwoong did the same. Somehow, they’ve managed to be in terms with their likes, dislikes and limits.

Jiwoong also chose the silliest safe word for him; because Matthew said he’d never have sex with him without one.

Cotton candy . Jiwoong chuckled as he was remembering the safe word while making dinner; he was cooking pasta that night because they were celebrating their third month anniversary.

He drifted away from those thoughts when he heard the keys opening the door and his hand went quickly to the bowl where the homemade tomato sauce was, pouring it inside the hot pan.

“Hyung.” He could hear his love’s voice entering the apartment and he’d swear that it could make his insides tremble. His hand went immediately to the stove’s knob and turned down the heat; he needed to kiss Matthew.

He was foolishly in love.

“Hey, baby.” Jiwoong’s voice was soft and low when he approached a tired and sleepy Matthew. His hands touched the youngest’s waist seconds after the door was locked and Jiwoong ended the distance between them as Matthew wrapped his arms around the older’s neck.

They stayed in that moment for a few seconds before Matthew turned his head a little to the side and his lips touched Jiwoong’s cheek, making his heart beat faster. It wasn’t long until their lips were connected and Matthew’s fingers were intertwined in Jiwoong’s hair. The kiss was soft and in seconds the grape flavored lip balm that was present in Jiwoong’s lips distracted Matthew, making him blush while some kisses were placed in the youngest’s bottom lip.

“I missed you and I feel exhausted.” The complaint left Matthew’s mouth as a calm whisper. He wanted to be treated as a baby and Jiwoong just knew that would happen.

It was a tiring week for Matthew. Everyone talks about how difficult the end of the semester is for a college student but no one talks enough about how a master's degree gets you stressed and worn out after a full day of classes.

“I missed you more, my love.” Jiwoong answered with a fond smile marking his lips and pressing his fingers on Matthew’s waist. “I knew you’d be tired so I made something for you… but I need you to trust me. Do you?” The question was almost rhetorical.

“Even with my eyes closed and hands tied, hyung.” Jiwoong could feel the ulterior motives in Matthew’s voice and there was no way Jiwoong would be able to hide the damn smile that appeared in his face. The same happened to the younger.

“So close them.” And Matthew did.

Jiwoong could say he's very good at spoiling his boyfriend so he prepared everything to make Matthew relax before they could have a little celebration of their anniversary. Jiwoong’s right hand grabbed Matthew’s and he was guided through the apartment towards the suite. Matthew questioned Jiwoong whether he could open his eyes when they stopped walking but received silence as an answer while Jiwoong took Matthew’s denim jacket off and stepped closer to kiss his neck’s curvature, making the shortest shiver and sigh.

“Don't open it, Seok.” Jiwoong said and felt Matthew’s frustration. Cute.

Jiwoong suddenly remembered the food he left on the stove and squeezed his eyes in exasperation. “I prepared a bath for you to relax while I finish our dinner, baby.” The words left his mouth calmly and his hand caressed Matthew’s face. “The water is at your favorite temperature and I put your favorite bath bomb in it… there’s also bubbles and your favorite essential oils.”

The other’s eyes opened slowly and he could see that pretty smile taking place — it's almost like he's not even with open eyes because of how big he’s smiling.

“Baby…” Matthew’s sweet voice and pout made themselves present in the situation, making Jiwoong almost melt. “You’re the best. Did you know that?”

“I guess… my pretty boyfriend has already told me that!” A grim appeared on the older’s face and he gave a step back when he noticed that Matthew was going to kiss him. “You. Bath. Right now! I’ll bring you your favorite wine in a few minutes and hope to see you naked!”

“Buuuuuuut!! I hate baths without you!” Matthew complained but Jiwoong was already closing the door.

“Deal with it!” He mouthed and closed the door, walking to the kitchen again to finish cooking the homemade pasta with chicken.

Jiwoong did as he promised, after cooking and mixing some condiments together for a few minutes, he walked to the bathroom with a glass full of his boyfriend’s favorite wine and handed it to the man who was finally relaxing and had his eyes closed. A silent thank you could be seen leaving Matthew’s lips.

“Dinner will be ready in a few minutes. I’ll leave your clothes on the bed, hm?” Jiwoong said, bending down and kissing his boyfriend. He could feel some water drops falling from Matthew’s hair into his cheeks and the bath soap he used was making its way into Jiwoong’s airways.

“Has anyone ever told you that you’re the best boyfriend ever?” Matthew asked and as the older was standing up, he could see the lip bite on the other’s face.

“And I hope I’m the only one, sir.” He teased, walking towards the door.

“Always!” A laugh was heard as the wineglass touched Matthew’s lips. “Oh, darling !” He catches Jiwoong’s attention again. “I have to ask you something later.”

He nodded and closed the bathroom’s door.

Darling…

Matthew only used that pet name when he wanted something. He knew how much Jiwoong liked to be called like that. And he also knew how weak he gets when hearing that word.

Seok Matthew was up to something and Kim Jiwoong knew it.

It didn’t take long for Jiwoong to choose the clothes for Matthew. He liked doing it, he definitely loved acts of service and knew his boyfriend’s style like the back of his hand, so it wasn’t something that he disliked doing nor that he would stop doing.

In the following minutes, Jiwoong could hear Matthew singing something as he was leaving the bathroom and putting on some clothes. He could imagine how pretty his boyfriend was while drying his hair and how appealing he looked while applying cologne. And amidst his thoughts, everything was ready for dinner. He had organized the kitchen so they wouldn’t have to worry about too many dishes later; he put the plates, glasses and cutlery on the table and he had also chosen a really good wine for them that night. The only thing left for him to do was to change clothes so he quickly went to the guest room and made himself as presentable as ever.

He knew he could’ve (or should’ve) changed in his own room but he didn’t want to hurry Matthew — the man who probably was inside the bathroom doing his makeup.

“May I come in?” He knocked twice on the bedroom’s door and opened just a little bit, being surprised with a very happy and sweet-smelling Matthew that was clearly waiting for him.

“No, you may not! But we may leave this room and eat the delicious pasta my pretty and tall boyfriend made!” The direct and impatient answer coming from Matthew was something that he should’ve expected at that point.

Both shared a sweet smile and Matthew gave Jiwoong a brief kiss, just to show how excited he was. They walked together to what they used to call ‘dining room’. It wasn’t exactly a big dining room but it was where they eat when something big or different happened. Today was different, it was their third month together as boyfriends and the celebration deserved more than just a dinner at the counter.

Jiwoong organized the whole night because according to his words, the only thing Matthew had to do was to “be pretty and show up at his apartment after classes” and, of course, the youngest would never say no to that.

Jiwoong dragged a chair for Matthew to sit and quickly walked to the other side of the table to sit in front of his love. Jiwoong had created a cozy and comfortable space for them. The curtains were open and they could see the light of the stars outside, the table was decorated with a few candles, there were also some rose petals surrounding the place — not only the table but also the floor —, the apartment was smelling super nice because pasta can never go wrong and it was very warm there because Jiwoong made sure to leave the AC on. He knew how much Matthew loved the winter but hated to feel cold.

“I know you told me to ‘just be pretty’ today but… you know I couldn’t do it, baby.” The words said by the youngest made Jiwoong smile.

“What are you up to, Seok Matthew?” Jiwoong asked, he needed to admit that he felt a little curious at the moment.

“It’s nothing big, Kim Jiwoong. I was walking home a few days ago and I saw something, inside a jewelry shop, that reminded me of you.” Matthew said and Jiwoong could notice that he looked kind of shy while saying it. He noticed how red his cheeks and ears got. Pretty. “It’s a necklace. I know you aren’t used to using necklaces but it would mean the world to me to see you with it sometimes…”

Jiwoong could see Matthew’s hand inside the jacket’s pocket and after a few seconds, he saw a small red silk box being handed to him. He was speechless and his heart was beating as fast as possible. At the same time, he felt bad because he didn’t buy anything for Matthew. Was he a terrible boyfriend?

He didn’t say a word for some time while he was admiring how pretty the box was. And how lucky he was for having Matthew as his boyfriend. He took a deep breath before opening the red box and seeing that inside there was a silver necklace with a butterfly pendant. They had talked a few times about how Jiwoong was, without a doubt, a butterfly or a black cat — even though now he had blonde hair — and how Matthew certainly was a fox. The cutest fox ever.

“Baby… I loved it.” The words were spoken calmly and he wasn’t even able to hide the moment where his eyes met Matthew’s eyes again and they were full of tears. Tears of joy.

“You don’t have to use it everyd—”

“Babe. I’ll wear it for the rest of my life.” Jiwoong cut Matthew off as he was saying and the most sincere and beautiful smile grew on both faces; they just felt so loved in that moment that their biggest wish was to freeze and live like that forever.

Matthew went closer to Jiwoong and helped him put the necklace on, gently kissing Jiwoong’s neck. Making the older shiver a little bit as he whispered “ I love you ” before going back to his chair.

“Now can we please eat? The smell is killing me! I swear you’ll be able to hear my stomach rumbling in a few minutes!” The drama in Matthew’s voice could kill Jiwoong so he just laughed and started preparing the other man’s plate with some homemade tomato sauce and pasta, adding one piece of chicken and pouring some white wine inside Matthew’s glass. “If you weren’t my boyfriend I’d say you’re trying to get me wasted and take me to bed, hyung.”

“Oh, babe… you know I don’t have to get you drunk to fuck you.” Jiwoong said after he was done preparing Matthew’s plate and started doing the same for himself.

Matthew snorted jokingly. And despite the younger’s response, both of them knew that they were just two simps for each other. Jiwoong had Matthew wrapped around his fingers and vice versa.

The dinner happened smoothly and they surely lost track of time because of it. They ate until they couldn’t anymore, they talked about Matthew’s day in his internship and in his classes, they joked a little bit about the messages their friends sent them in the group chat. Between some moments in the conversation Jiwoong could feel Matthew’s feet on his leg and he definitely pretended nothing had happened. It was really a great night and a great anniversary but what Matthew said earlier was still in Jiwoong’s mind; what did the younger wanted to ask Jiwoong? And why was that taking so long?

Of course the question didn’t take long after Jiwoong started questioning himself about it. He was washing the dishes and then he felt Matthew’s hands caressing his back; then he felt the same hands surrounding his waist. He could also feel Matthew’s cheeks pressed on his back. Something was definitely happening there.

“Baby… I know you want something. What is it?” Jiwoong asked quietly and smiled as the man’s hands entered the shirt he was wearing.

“Jiwoon-hyung.” Uh-oh…

It was obvious that Jiwoong could never say no to Matthew but it was obvious that using that nickname and tone of voice would be virtually impossible to deny anything.

Seok Matthew was a menace .

When they first met, almost a year ago, Matthew had just moved to Seoul from Canada and he was really good in speaking Korean but something about Jiwoong’s name ending with the letter ‘g’ following the word “hyung” starting with ‘h’ really confused Matthew the first times they were hanging out. Now, it was obvious that Matthew was able to pronounce Jiwoong’s name but he still got confused every now and then. Yet this time… Jiwoong knew something was up.

“I want to ask you something.”

“I know, baby. Just tell me.”

“What do you know about masochism?” Matthew’s hands pressed thigher in Jiwoong’s abdomen and the oldest almost dropped the wineglass he was washing.

“Hm… like in Fifty Shades of Grey ?” Jiwoong asked, taking a deep breath.

“Well… not exactly like in that shitty movie! But yes…” Jiwoong chuckled and bit his bottom lip.

“Yes. I know about masochism, Matthew. We’ve already talked about it, remember?” He said, putting the dish on the dryer, still waiting for Matthew to continue.

“We have already talked about me being tied up and about you insulting me during sex. But… how would you feel if I asked you to hit me?” Matthew asked with no shame and Jiwoong blinked at the idea

“Like… hard?” Jiwoong asked. Just to make sure.

“Yes, babe, hard. More like spanking me…” Jiwoong closed the dryer and turned his body to Matthew’s, kind of unsure on how to continue the conversation. “Have you seen your arms? Baby, you are so so sooo hot. I really want you to spank me. Slap me in the face. You can even choke me, sir , I beg you.” Matthew would always be a menace because that nickname was just so unasked for.

“You’re gonna be the death of me, Seok Matthew, did you know that?” Jiwoong says knowing he wouldn’t get a response out of his boyfriend. It was kind of a rhetorical comment either way. “I think this is kind of too much, baby, I don’t know…” Jiwoong was one hundred percent unsure about that, it was written all over his face, yet, he tried to give his best smile to Matthew.

“Oh, ok…” Matthew answered and Jiwoong could feel the unsureness in his voice. A thousand cuts would hurt less than seeing and hearing Matthew in that moment.

“But, may I think about it, my love?” Jiwoong asked, trying to ease the tension that was established in the kitchen.

Matthew just nodded and walked up to the refrigerator, opening the door and taking a bottle of water. “I’m going to lay down, ok? I feel kind of tired, baby. I’ll wait for you, ok?”

That wasn’t a question even though it was delivered as one. Matthew was just letting Jiwoong know that he was going.

Oh shit.

Jiwoong knew that the BDSM subject would happen again one way or another, he just didn’t know that it would happen so again so fast. Their personalities fit in every aspect of their life, except in the bedroom. Jiwoong liked what Matthew called ‘vanilla sex’ and Matthew liked it rough.

It would be a lie if Jiwoong said that the things his boyfriend suggested weren’t alluring in his mind; he really liked how Matthew submissive Matthew got in some moments, how he begged for everything, how the youngest treated him with so much respect (well, sometimes) , how Matthew’s moans became more and more like whines after he was overstimulated, how pretty he looked all tied up and not being able to see anything. But it was also something that made Jiwoong kind of nervous. Was he being good? Why did it look like a challenge sometimes? What if he wasn’t enough for Matthew? Were the handcuffs too much? What if he accidentally left Matthew with bruises?

Why did it have to be so hard for him?

He obviously liked it and did everything that Matthew wanted after he took some time to think about it. So it was, definitely, consensual and he was into it. But he was still unsure and hated the feeling of his boyfriend thinking he overstepped. Maybe he didn’t have the best reaction and maybe the words he used were shitty but the question came out of nowhere and he was very surprised.

He got lost in his thoughts and didn’t even notice when his boyfriend wasn’t even in the kitchen anymore; he didn’t even notice how many minutes had passed and he still wasn’t in bed with Matthew.

Jiwoong walked quickly to the bedroom and slowly opened the door to see Matthew turned to the side and no cellphone light coming from where he was laying. “Shit.” He cursed as he walked to the bathroom to take a shower and took some time to tidy up what he had organized for his boyfriend earlier.

The questions about what Matthew said in the kitchen were running through his head and he even grabbed his cellphone and went to the incognito tab to search more about masochism — as if he needed to search it on an incognito tab, wasn’t he a fucking adult? — and surprisingly he got really interested in knowing more about it. Masochism wasn’t something he was not familiar with but it sounded rather extreme in his opinion.

Extreme or not, Jiwoong wasn’t able to lie and say that the thought didn’t arouse him, especially because after a few minutes scrolling through that damn tab, he started to feel something growing in him. Not an idea, nor a feeling. His dick. It became extremely hard — without him even noticing — after reading about it and imagining himself doing it to Matthew.

Great!

Now he was a hypocrite because he clearly liked the idea of spanking and making Matthew suffer. And his fucking shower needed to be cold.

That bath was horrible. Not only because he was the biggest fan of hot showers but also because the feeling of going to sleep, after a very special and great day, without talking or working things out with Matthew was dreadful. He hated that situation.

After a really long time — with the boner long gone — he left the bathroom and dried his hair with his bath towel, going into his bedroom just to look for sweatpants to use. His eyes immediately went to Matthew, seeing him in the same position as before.

Jiwoong’s heart ached again.

After a few minutes, he was already in bed and taking a deep breath while connecting both cell phones to charge in the nightstand.

It wasn’t easy to sleep. In fact, he didn’t even sleep and got surprised looking at the time after some time and seeing that more than one hour had already passed and he was only rolling around the bed. There was only one thing to do. It didn’t hurt to try, right?

“My love…?” His shaky voice slipped through his lips.

“Yeah?” Matthew’s voice was low and uncertain.

Thank God he was awake.

“I was afraid you slept without giving me a goodnight kiss.” Jiwoong bawled and turned around just to see that Matthew had already done that same thing. He smiled.

“I would never do it, my love. I guess I was just… anxious about calling your name.”

“You should’ve called.” Jiwoong pouted, answering Matthew in a blink of an eye. He was able to see the younger’s smile even with the darkness of the room.

“I just think I overstepped earlier and I’m really sorry for doing it, baby.” Matthew pondered and Jiwoong could feel the man’s hand touching his forearm, caressing that part of his body.

“No, baby, you—”

“I need to learn that you’re not comfortable with everything I ask for or enjoy doing. I should’ve kept my mouth  shut. I’m really sorry, Jiwoong.” He cut Jiwoong off and kept talking nonsense. Wouldn’t he listen to Jiwoong?

“Matthew, it’s fine. I said I would think about it, didn’t I?” Jiwoong questioned and was able to hear Matthew’s ‘mm-hmm’. “So why don’t you trust me? I’d be physically unable to be uncomfortable around you, I would simply tell you I don’t feel like doing it and we could try something different.” A smirk peeked out of his mouth.

“Do you promise?” He could still feel Matthew’s doubtness present in the conversation.

“With all my heart, darling. I love you.” He whispered the last three words as if the whole South Korea wasn’t able to tell Kim Jiwoong was a fool for Seok Matthew.

“I love you too. Deeply.” Matthew answered and now everything Jiwoong could notice was the relief in his voice.

The conversation ended in that moment but it didn’t take long before Jiwoong was wonderstruck by his boyfriend’s hands around his face, pulling him closer and into a passionate kiss. At first, only the lips were touching and it was very serene and still. Jiwoong’s lips were pressed against Matthew’s and none of them felt like moving or backing away.

It wasn’t until Matthew’s hand went up to Jiwoong’s hair that the kiss was deepened. The youngest tightened his hands on the older’s arm and pushed him into the bed, making Jiwoong’s body fall against the mattress and in just a few seconds, Matthew was on top of his boyfriend’s lap.

“Jiwoon-hyung, I love you.”

The nickname again.

Jiwoong didn’t even have time to answer Matthew’s sentence because his lips were already occupied by the younger’s. His hands went straight to the smaller’s waist and squeezed his fingers there, making an alluring sound come out of Matthew’s mouth.

Oh dear…

The kiss kept getting intense and sloppy. Their hands were lost in each other’s bodies and there was not an inch of skin that wasn’t touched in that moment, they needed each other. Their tongues were twisting and moving together, everything happening subtly and with Jiwoong making Matthew feel giddy as he started sucking onto his tongue without any shame.

Matthew, who was stroking Jiwoong’s arms, suddenly went to his neck, squeezing it until the man was almost breathless, making a moan leave Jiwoong’s mouth. They were driving each other crazy.

“Ooh, freak!” Matthew made fun of him after the sound came out and the man’s lips curled into a grin.

Jiwoong didn’t say a word. Would it be greedy of him to be missing his lover this much even though they have spent the last hours together? And, being honest, saying they have only spent the last hours together is the biggest lie ever. They’ve been dating for three months but for the last year they have been inseparable.

Jiwoong still recalls the day they met. They should’ve met earlier. Their friend group was always similar. Jiwoong is best friends with Sung Hanbin and Zhang Hao. Matthew is Hanbin’s childhood friend. Jiwoong is close to Taerae, who surprisingly, graduated in the same class and college as Matthew but they were never friends. Taerae and Jiwoong’s friendship was more of something casual because they go to the same D&D meeting every week to play that stupid game for hours straight and forget about their work and life related problems.

Maybe Jiwoong is missing the time they could have had if Sung Hanbin had taken him as a plus one years earlier to Matthew’s birthday party. He always had big parties. Matthew was kind of a big party giver and he always was the life of the party. Not only because he was the birthday boy but because he was always full of life and doing his best to at least say hi to everyone present. Even people he didn’t know.

How could he miss something he didn’t even know years ago? Miss someone that wasn’t even his?

Besides taking an absurd time for them to meet, their history is funny. Jiwoong had been dismissed from his job that day. The job he had been working at since he was in college. That had destroyed him and Sung Hanbin and Zhang Hao couldn’t take it anymore — Jiwoong was rotting in his bed for weeks — so they physically compelled against Jiwoong, put him under the shower and prepped him to a “friend’s party”. The friend was Matthew and on that day he was turning 21 years old. They became close quickly. Maybe Jiwoong and him don’t have the same interests and life experiences but, in a way, they completed each other. In the best way possible.

Jiwoong’s days were brighter because of Matthew. Matthew’s days had a new passion because of Jiwoong. They made each other better people. They grew fond of each other.

Jiwoong fell first. It would be impossible to not fall for Seok Matthew. It would be impossible to not fall for his stupid Pokémon jokes, or his way of saying Jiwoong’s name wrong when adding the honorifics, or for the pout he makes when he’s confused studying anything about the major he chose, or when he’s nervous and search for Jiwoongs fingers — not his hand, his fingers — and holds it like a toddler, or for his lovely and magnificent smile that could light a whole continent.

Or, maybe, Matthew fell first without even noticing. He was kind of slow when the subject was love. But not right now. In this moment he had Jiwoong and Jiwoong was his and his only.

Jiwoong one hundred percent missed him so he just ignored the nickname and kept pressing his fingers on Matthew’s waist to make him be closer. As close as humanly possible. Matthew let his hand loose in Jiwoong’s neck and put an end in the distance between them. Another kiss was happening now but this was different.

The older usually didn’t notice but sometimes he used to gaze at Matthew for some time. Nothing was said and sometimes the silence felt killer for Matthew but he noticed that Jiwoong used to do it when he was admiring Matthew with the most caring expression possible. So Matthew just accepted it. Not because he liked being stared at but because it was Jiwoong staring at him and he knew he was the only thing passing through his boyfriend’s mind.

This kiss was calm and tender, almost soft, it reminded them of the first time their lips met. Their hands were lost in each other’s bodies and no one was able to explain why they became so touchy in a spawn of seconds, it just happened. Their lips were moving in tandem and Jiwoong sliding his tongue into Matthew’s mouth while pressing the bodies closer made them both breathe deeper; they loved the proximity and Jiwoong made sure to explore the younger’s mouth like he was hungry.

Hungry for Seok Matthew.

The thoughts about them, their connections and their feelings made the whole kiss be so much more tender and it obviously made them want much more because their lips only grew distant when they were out of breath. Yet the absence of air didn’t stop Matthew from kissing Jiwoong’s cheeks and then going down to his neck, trailing uncountable kisses into his skin and making Jiwoong gasp. He was a little sensitive in that part of his body so it was always a low blow comin from Matthew to be so close to his skin.

“Leave a mark.” Jiwoong said after a few kisses and small bites coming from his boyfriend. He was completely given in and the situation that used to upset (both) a few minutes ago, now was forgettable.

“Was hoping to hear these words coming out of your mouth, honey.” Matthew spoke and Jiwoong could hear the pure happiness in the man’s words. It wasn’t long until Matthew’s lips were pressed into Jiwoong’s skin and did an amazing job marking the pale skin. Jiwoong shut his eyes tight and tried to hold the moan that was making its way out of his throat. He wasn’t very good at hiding it because Jiwoong could feel Matthew’s gaze in his face after a few seconds. His face went completely red and he could feel the heat spreading through his whole body.

“So I have this power over you, hyung.” Matthew joked about the sound that barely left Jiwoong’s mouth.

“Liar.” Jiwoong breathed and was suddenly surprised because of Matthew. His cute and precious boyfriend who had just started to move his hips against Jiwoong’s crotch, making the older man press his fingerprints in Matthew’s waist, just like he begged the other to stop. “Seok Matthew.”

“Wanna please you, hyung.” Matthew pouted while appreciating the squeeze received. The movements didn’t stop and Jiwoong wasn’t strong enough to fight against Matthew.

And it wasn’t even that he was weak. Jiwoong was strong and even stronger than Matthew but he was never able to fight his desire. Especially if the one he’s fighting is his boyfriend. Jiwoong worshiped Matthew. His body is flawless, immaculate and Jiwoong’s eyes never left it when he had the chance to see it. Thus, he wouldn’t dare to miss the impeccable image of his lover’s frame so it wasn’t long until Jiwoong sat on the bed and leaned his head on the padded bedpost.

His hands went straight to the oversized shirt Matthew was wearing and took the cloth out of his body. Jiwoong almost let out a gasp as if it was the first time he saw Matthew’s skin.

“I have a better idea, Mae.” He said while drawing close to Matthew and leaving a kiss into the other’s collarbone, leaving some other kisses into his skin while leading his lips near Matthew’s earlobe, sucking into it. “Hands on your back, babe.”

Jiwoong didn’t leave room for Matthew to deny or fight the instruction. Jiwoong’s hands grab Matthew’s wrists and put them together while tying his hands and arms together. He made sure to double knot the shirt around his hands so it would be harder for him to be free from it. Not impossible, just harder.

“Bastard.” The insult came out of Matthew’s mouth but he never really meant it and Jiwoong was sure about it because of the smile on his face. He adored the moment and it was impossible for him to deny it because when Jiwoong’s eyes went down his body and Matthew’s bulge was the most noticeable thing in this body.

“You want me so much, Mattchu-ya?” Jiwoong asked, making fun of how hard he was and he could only hear the groan leaving Matthew’s mouth. “So, I was thinking, since you have classes tomorrow, I won’t fuck you today.” A whine came out of Matthew’s mouth but he was clearly ignored by Jiwoong. It happened again when the older’s hand touched Matthew’s hard cock above his boxer’s thin fabric, pressing his palm there. Matthew’s breathing was already heavy. “But I can make you cum.”

His eyes went directly to Matthew’s and, even though the room was dark and the only light was coming from the poorly closed curtains, he could see the man’s eyes sparkle. A chuckle left his lips.

“I need it, hyung…” Matthew said softly after Jiwoong pressed his hands on his dick for a few seconds — that felt like minutes for that horny and impatient Matthew — so Jiwoong just mouthed a low “ hm?” waiting for Matthew to complete his sentence. “Please.”

Now Jiwoong was pleased and placed a pleased peck in his lover’s lips.

“Good boy. So good to me.” Jiwoong praised the man while laying him on the bed, making sure there wasn’t any discomfort to Matthew because of the way his hands were tied. Jiwoong stood up from the bed and his hands went to appreciate Matthew’s legs and upper body.

“You’re making me shy, darling.” Matthew’s voice was heard a few seconds after the older’s gaze didn’t leave his whole partially naked body. Jiwoong said nothing but his hands moved swiftly and in a few seconds, Matthew wasn’t wearing his boxers anymore. His erection was already hard and, for Jiwoong, it was a beautiful sight to be seen. Jiwoong had always shown how much he loved Matthew’s dick. He loved its length, its thickness, its pinkish color and, specially, its veins. Jiwoong’s mouth could drool by just looking at it.

Matthew’s dick wasn’t as long as Jiwoong’s, but it was definitely thicker so he’d doubtless need both hands to stroke both at the same time. Matthew’s eyes followed Jiwoong, it was like his boyfriend and a prey and he was the hunter.

It didn’t take long before Jiwoong started moving his hand up and down, just feeling how hot and veiny the cocks were while pressed together. His eyes went up to Matthew’s face just to admire every reaction he was entitled to while pleasuring his boyfriend. Jiwoong’s hands were slow and almost nightmarish and he could see how Matthew was visibly furious for his slowness while masturbating him. A giggle left his mouth when the youngest threw his head backwards and his breathing started to feel heavier because Jiwoong started to make circular motions in his glans just to wet his hand a bit with Matthew’s pre-cum and continue to masturbate both of them.

“Oh Gosh…” Matthew was already hard and it was pretty difficult for him to hold back the moans and groans that he let out when being stimulated; the man had always been very sensitive when touched, especially by his boyfriend. Jiwoong was just enjoying the moment whilst he could hear Matthew.

The movements Jiwoong was doing were pacey and firm, he knew what he was doing and he knew how his boyfriend liked it to be done so it wasn’t hard to put a little bit of more pressure in the right moments or to be faster in others. Jiwoong also was a big giver so just seeing his partner feeling so hot and excited while he was jerking him off was enough for him to be very much hard and equally excited.

“Fuck, Mae… you make me feel so good.” Jiwoong’s voice was raspy and low, it fit the moment they were having. Matthew’s eyes lit up with the compliment and Kim could feel how it had affected him by the twitch he felt on his hand — besides everything, Matthew liked to be complimented while sex and Jiwoong knew exactly what to tell him to make him feel good.

Jiwoong spent some time provoking Matthew while masturbating him, just to feel the pleasure to listen to him moaning his name and some words in English that Jiwoong would ask the meaning later. The perks of dating a Canadian man. “You’re so hot, baby, I love you.” Jiwoong smiled while getting closer to Matthew and closing the gap between their mouths to start kissing him while still masturbating him. All for his own pleasure because now he could hear his boyfriend moans muffled against his own mouth and tongue.

His hands just kept doing the movements up and down and Matthew knew he’d only stop once he came; and, happily, that was close to happen. Just as Jiwoong stopped the wet kiss to breathe deeper, Matthew started to feel more and more hypersensitive and his moans got louder and louder and his talking started to be more of a babble. That was great to Jiwoong’s ears so he just started kissing Matthew again to suck on his tongue while touching him the best way possible.

Not much after, Jiwoong looked down to see Matthew’s body trembling and feeling his cum dripping by his hand; now the sounds his hands were making were even louder because of how sticky the whole situation became.

“Good boy, Maet.” Jiwoong pet called him while his body was laying fatigued on the bed and the moans didn’t stop leaving Matthew’s lips. “Now, I know you’ll bear just a bit more so I can come too, hm? Won’t you, babe?”

The younger opened his mouth to answer Jiwoong but he was already so sensitive that he could only shake his head to consent to what the older had asked. Jiwoong smiled at the response. He was close too but he kept his cool for a little longer just to incite Matthew that was already overstimulated underneath him.

“Jiwoon… Jiwoon… I think I’m about to come again… fuck!” Jiwoong was happy to hear that so he allowed himself to cum at the same time as his boyfriend, his breathing being as heavy as possible when he finally came.

“Open your mouth, Matthew.” Jiwoong managed to calm himself down after cumming and gave the younger man the order. Which was followed in the same moment by Matthew, who opened his mouth and stuck his tongue out for Jiwoong to put two of his fingers filled with their cum for Matthew to suck on. “You look so pretty while being a slut for me, baby.” Jiwoong said slowly while Matthew sucked on his fingers — the prettiest scene ever, in his opinion.

“I love you.” Matthew said while looking into Jiwoong’s eyes and smiling brightly, Jiwoong could see his hair sticking onto his forehead because of how much he had sweat in that moment so Jiwoong gave him a peck on his lips and helped him sit down on the bed, untying his wrists and hands.

“You stay right there, I’m going to clean you up and put an alarm so we wake up earlier tomorrow and take a long shower together!” Jiwoong said while getting off the bed and walking to the bathroom just to take the baby wipes to clean themselves a little bit.

Jiwoong was always gentle with Matthew but he had special care for him in the aftercare. What Jiwoong feared the most was that Matthew felt used or uncared for after these moments so he made sure to be extra careful with his love. The aftercare was slow and both of them kept talking while cleaning themselves and putting their clothes on — again.

For some reason, it was really easy for them to sleep that night. Funny.

Chapter 2: You know I'm not a bad boy

Summary:

Matthew and Jiwoong went to sleep without addressing the elephant in the room and, with Matthew having to focus on doing some research for his master's degree, they wouldn't have much time to spend together. Yet, Jiwoong couldn't help but think about Matthew's ‘spanking-needs’ so he had the questionable idea of talking to the only person who probably knew what to do in that situation: Sung Hanbin, Matthew's best friend.

Notes:

I'm terrible writing summaries to my works so I am really sorry if the summary is too simple or simply bad I (unfortunately) was not born with this talent but please don't give up on me! I really enjoyed writing this because I really feel like my creativity is growing and sparking again so I'm truly looking forward to your reactions (if you feel like commenting something, of course)! I wrote this chapter in thw spawn of a week and it turned out to be longer than I tought but I really really like how it turned out and how I was able to "dug in" deeper into jyungmaet's relationship and their friendship with haobin!

And I'd like to remind all of you again that this work is inspired from this tweet and I'm so glad I could write their idea!! Thank you for reading this note and have a great time reading the second chapter! ^^

Chapter Text

Jiwoong was used to waking up before Matthew so he could wake the younger one up and they’d be on bed for a few minutes before getting out of bed and having to face the real world with the adulthood challenges, but today was different because the moment he stretched his arm to reach Matthew’s side of the bed, he wasn’t there.

Jiwoong frowned.

“That’s weird.” He whispered to himself while getting out of bed, putting his shorts on and walking straight to the suite’s bathroom. Matthew wasn’t there either. Jiwoong walked again to their bed and took his phone that was still charging beside the bed and looked at the time; it was still too early for Matthew to be late to his internship and that made Jiwoong even more confused because his boyfriend wasn’t the type to wake up early to make him a surprise breakfast or anything else.

Matthew, definitely, was not an early bird.

So what surprised him the most was that when he walked to the kitchen distractedly he saw Matthew tidying up the counter with an organized and almost fancy breakfast. Jiwoong chuckled a bit surprised and scared the shit out of Matthew that almost dropped the cup he was holding.

“Oh Gosh, JIwoong-hyung, what the heck?!” Matthew said a bit loud while putting his hand on his chest and laughing, walking happily to Jiwoong’s direction, hugging his boyfriend.

It didn’t take three seconds for Jiwoong to hug Matthew back and spin him in his arms, making both of them laugh and cherish the moment they were having. As Jiwoong put him on the ground again, Matthew held his face with both hands and kissed Jiwoong. The kiss was tender and kind, both of them were still a bit sleepy so that was reasonable but it wasn’t long until Jiwoong — who was still hugging Matthew — took the lead of the kiss and leaned in to make way to use a little bit of tongue. Matthew smiled through the kiss and that made Jiwoong blush, he was such a fool for anything the Canadian did, it was almost unethical.

“What are you doing up, babe? I missed you in bed…” Jiwoong said, pouting, while giving some pecks on Matthew’s mouth.

“I wanted to make something nice for you today.” Matthew answered with some difficulty since Jiwoong didn’t stop with the kisses for a single second. “If you had woken up two minutes earlier, you’d see Hanbin and Hao-hyung, I asked them to bring the food for me because I wasn’t feeling like going to the lobby just to take it.” Matthew smiled like a little kid who has just tricked their parents into buying him candy and that was enough to make Jiwoong laugh out loud.

“I can’t believe you’re that lazy, Woohyun!” Jiwoong gave him a last peck on the lips and held his hand, walking to the counter to see what he had ordered. “To be honest, I think I woke up to the sound of Zhang Hao closing our door, he never knows how to close anything without slamming it!”.

“It’s possible… but I’m glad you only came after they have already left because I want to be the only one to see you shirtless.” Matthew said while backhugging Jiwoong, giving him a kiss on his back and trying to bite the same place but the older was smarter and he escaped from the hug before Matthew could do it. “Hey! Coward!”.

“No no, you jealous boy, last time you bit me, the marks didn’t leave for three whole days and I have classes this afternoon!” Jiwoong said, pointing a finger to Matthew and opening a big smile for him while remembering that some weeks ago the man had bitten him near his neck and his students did everything in their power to bother Jiwoong about it. College students could be worse than kids sometimes.

“I was nowhere near your neck, Kim Jiwoong!” Matthew protested, running towards Jiwoong and trying to bite him again.

But Matthew regretted his decision in the same moment because Jiwoong had him in his arms and held him up to the couch, throwing the man against the soft cushions, making both of them laugh while Jiwoong laid on top of Matthew, making it hard for him to do anything else.

“You’re manhandled so easily, Woohyun, you’re kinda pathetically in love with me!” Jiwoong made fun of the man because Matthew was not even close to being weak. Sometimes Jiwoong even thought Matthew was stronger than him. “But I’ll let you bite me as much as you want, maybe even suck me… maybe tonight, hm?!”.

Jiwoong held back his laugh after seeing Matthew’s eyes almost sparkle after listening to the latter info.

“Kim Jiwoong, don’t make me hard, it’s not even eight in the morning!” Matthew closed his eyes, controlling himself before holding Jiwoong’s face with both hands, again, and calmly kissing his lips.

“But… I thought you liked it!” Jiwoong pouted, making the most dramatic face ever just to tease Matthew.

“Oh! Fuck you!” Matthew rolled his eyes and laughed while shoving Jiwoong to the other side of the couch, almost making the older one fall to the ground, and getting up to go to the kitchen counter, pulling Jiwoong’s counter chair for him to sit down. “Anyway!” He side eyed Jiwoong when saying it. “I bought some sandwiches, coffee, fruit salad and of course chocolate for us! It’s nothing special, I just wanted to start the day well with you and make Hanbin drive here just for me to see my best friend for the last time since I don’t know when!”

“But you saw him three days ago!” Jiwoong guffawed while looking at the table full of food. If he had seen how much food Matthew had ordered, he would’ve asked Hanbin and Hao to stay and eat with them.

“No, you have to understand that not seeing Hanbinie for more than two days is like a mother losing its babies! I have lived with him since I moved to Korea!” Matthew said it in such a sad way that he sounded like he was grieving something.

“If you miss him so much, I can spend some days in your apartment, babe, you know I don’t mind! Your house is so much closer to the university I work at and I could even go walking!” Jiwoong prompted. “I know your wardrobe is filled with my clothes because you steal everything from me. I know four people may be a lot but I don’t think Hao will mind me there!”

Jiwoong could sense how thrilled Matthew was after hearing what he had said.

“Yah?! I don’t steal all your clothes! Just the best ones!” Matthew made fun of Jiwoong while grabbing the coffee that was inside a plastic cup and pouring it into Jiwoong’s cup and doing the same with his coffee.

“It’s not a good justification, Matthew! But I’ll accept it, you may have all my clothes!” Jiwoong teased while drinking his coffee, smiling after tasting it and noticing Matthew remembered to order his favorite.

Jiwoong definitely had the best boyfriend ever.

They started eating and shooting the breeze while waiting for time to pass and realizing they had better things to do — both of them really hated to be adults. Matthew had to go do some field research for his master’s degree and Jiwoong was responsible for driving him there because Matthew’s driver’s license was lost somewhere in the world and he never thought of asking for a replacement card, so he basically was a passenger princess all the time. Jiwoong had a hint this was on purpose but he didn’t really care about it; he loved doing everything to pamper his boyfriend.

After eating and having enough courage to take a shower and face the world — together —, they left Jiwoong’s apartment and went straight to the car. Matthew needed to go to the library take some books and after that he’d have a long morning and afternoon studying with his teacher in the lab; and that meant he rarely had any breaks so he wouldn’t have the time to take his cellphone to talk to Jiwoong who was going to be in class the whole afternoon answering the most random classes to a 3rd semester class that was studying Ancient History.

“Oh, and I have packed lunch for you!” Jiwoong almost squealed happily while parking in front of the big library from the university Matthew was studying for his master’s degree.

“You are the best boyfriend ever.” Matthew beamed. “Now I won’t have to eat the questionable food they serve in the cafeteria!” He added, leaning closer to Jiwoong in the driver’s seat and placing a gentle kiss on the boyfriend’s lips, making it last a little longer since it’s going to be their last for the next eightish hours.

“I love you, babe, send me a message when you have time, ok?” Jiwoong whispered after ending the kiss, still having his eyes closed and being able to feel Matthew still very much close to him.

None of them wanted to leave but to Jiwoong’s displeasure, once he opened his eyes, he could see one of Matthew’s friends a few meters from the car. They were super close because she also was Canadian so Jiwoong was happy they had found each other — he wasn’t the best at speaking English, so Matthew having someone to talk to in his native language made him so happy.

“I promise you won’t leave my mind any second, my love!” Matthew said like it was a promise, as if he was trying to comfort both of them in the situation while taking his lunch, backpack and leaving the car, sending a flying kiss to Jiwoong.

Jiwoong waited until Matthew was already inside the library before starting the car again and driving to his apartment again. He had to tidy the place up before leaving and buy some new whiteboard markers for him to teach his classes. He was just like any other History teacher — he loved to talk a lot, create metaphors, make the students debate with each other and, of course, create some confusing mind maps on the board. That meant his markers lasted three weeks maximum.

A bit lost in his thoughts, Jiwoong was already in his apartment garage after driving for some minutes. He made small talk with the doorman, talking about the weather and some random soccer team he didn’t really know much about, he was only able to talk about because Jiwoong was the type of person that could talk about anything if he wanted to. He, surprisingly, knew a lot about so many subjects; Matthew said this was more of a superpower than anything else, especially because Jiwoong made Matthew believe he truly liked Pokemon but it was just something Jiwoong used to search and learn about beforehand to talk to Matthew about.

Jiwoong started to organize the apartment while Matthew’s playlist played on the television and everything was going great until Jiwoong opened the dryer and saw the wineglass he had almost dropped yesterday when Matthew asked him that infamous question.

Jiwoong sighed while his mind went to heaven and back with the thought again — everywhere but the house that needed to be organized — and, yes, he knew he hadn’t given Matthew an answer but he still felt ratherish confused about the subject.

He could say he had questions, yet, he didn’t have the guts to ask them to Matthew. Thus, he did what every sane boyfriend would do: he went to Hanbin’s rescue.

Yes, the one and only Sung Hanbin. Matthew’s best friend. If someone had an answer or advice on what to do, it would be him so now Jiwoong was driving again, now to Hanbin’s café and unconsciously looking for a parking place for him nearby. It was almost impossible but after some time he finally found one, two blocks away consequently the walk to the café was longer than he had imagined.

“I have to talk to you.” Jiwoong spoke up, scaring the hell out of Hanbin who was cleaning a table near the window and placed his hand on his chest, showing how scared he got. “You and Matthew even have the same reactions, oh my!”

“Everyone reacts like that when someone scares them, Jiwoong-hyung!” Hanbin protested, defending himself while finishing to clean the table, spraying some alcohol on Jiwoong for him to back off from him. “I’ll have a break in 10 minutes, wait for me in the apartment! But, be quiet, Hao went back to sleep after delivering your lazy boyfriend’s breakfast!”

Jiwoong did as said and walked up the stairs to Hanbin’s apartment. The door wasn’t locked so he didn’t have to wait outside of the apartment, which was great because Hanbin’s couch was great to lay on.

“We have already talked about me being tied up and about you insulting me during sex. But… how would you feel if I asked you to hit me?”

The question was repeating itself on Jiwoong’s head all the time so he didn’t even notice when Hanbin had entered the room, he just came back to reality after the black haired man snapped his fingers in front of Jiwoong’s face.

“Hey?! That is rude!” He bickered at Hanbin, who was sitting down on the armchair opposite to the couch.

“You’re the one that has got your head on the clouds!” Hanbin answered back, rolling his eyes at Jiwoong and laughing afterwards, showing Jiwoong he didn’t mean to be rude or anything like that. “So, what’s bugging you?”

Jiwoong and Hanbin had this weird synergy where they could bicker all the time but they knew when to be serious and act normally so it was noticeable when the tone of the conversation changed.

“So… Matthew made another of his proposals …” As Jiwoong finished saying his sentence, giving emphasis to the last word, Hanbin frowned and breathed deeply. “ Ok ! That is an unacceptable reaction, Sung Hanbin!” The oldest rolled his eyes at his reaction.

“I am sorry!” Hanbin tried to defend himself with a smile on his face. “It’s just that I don’t know what to expect when we’re talking about Matthew’s… preferences?!” He carefully chose the last word of the sentence, making a judgy face.

“But I need you to not judge me for what I am about to say, hm?” Jiwoong whinged, clearly a bit discomforted by the whole situation. Hanbin only nodded, making himself more comfortable on the armchair, still maintaining eye contact with Jiwoong. “He asked me if I could s…spank him.” The older one was almost incapable of saying the last word of the sentence. He could already feel his face burning up.

Oh! ” That was all that left Hanbin’s mouth for a few seconds, before he opened a big smile and tried as hard as he could to not make fun of Jiwoong. “This all was because of spanking, Jiwoong-hyung? I thought it would be worse than this!”

Jiwoong squinted his eyes at Hanbin’s reaction, now he was even more flustered about the whole thing.

“I am genuinely surprised he only asked you now.” Hanbin added, making Jiwoong roll his eyes.

“I’m afraid of what he’s going to ask me once we complete six months of dating.” He joked about it, taking his hands to his hair and pulling some strands in between his fingers.

“Ok, ok! Don’t do that, you’ll be bald before you turn 30 and I don’t want a bald best friend!” Hanbin tried to improve Jiwoong’s mood and took a deep breath. “What exactly is bothering you, hyung? You don’t feel comfortable doing it? Because I’m sure Matthew will understand that, you just have to be honest with him, that man is head over heels for you! Or…”

Jiwoong stopped Hanbin in the middle of his train of thought. “No… It’s not that! I am totally comfortable with the idea of trying new things with Matthew, the wax experience was… something!”

“Please… don’t go into details!” Hanbin had a disgusted look on his face while talking over Jiwoong, who just laughed at the man’s reaction.

“It was just an example!” Jiwoong raised his hands, as if he had given up something and that made both of them laugh together. “It’s just that the way Matthew tried to talk to me about doing it was the most terrible way possible, like, I was washing the damn dishes!” Hanbin could sense the anguish in Jiwoong’s voice. “It was different from the other moments where he waited for a more, I don’t know, cohesive moment to ask, you know?!”

“Yeah… I couldn’t come up with a single justification for him, I’m sure there would be better moments.” Jiwoong could see in Hanbin’s face that he also disapproved of Matthew's timing for the request.

“And my reaction was also shitty, you know? I didn’t really know what spanking was because it wasn’t really the kind of thing I liked to… watch or research about when I was younger and had the will to watch adult content!” He tried to justify himself while Hanbin asked himself why he was the chosen one to have this conversation with. “And since I had a terrible reaction, we didn’t talk about it again, I think both of us were ignoring the subject yesterday but I wanted to tell him that I’ve done my research and I want to try it with him, I’d rather him doing it with me than not being fulfilled in the relationship, get it? Like… I know my worth but I’ve seen his DMs and there are some hot people there, you aren’t understanding me, Sung Hanbin!” Jiwoong was almost out of breath when he finished talking and Hanbin had this confused expression on his face.

Before Hanbin could even think of an answer, both of them were surprised with a noise coming from the corridor. It was Zhang Hao walking out of Hanbin’s bedroom with the most annoyed face ever.

“Jiwoong, has nobody taught you to speak lower?” The Chinese asked, clearly irritated with the situation. “And what are you doing here?”

“Firstly, where are the honorifics?" Jiwoong provoked just to see the man a little bit more annoyed than he already was.

“Jiwoong-hyung has a dilemma because of Matthew and his likings inside the bedroom.” Hanbin told Hao straight away, as if Jiwoong wasn’t standing in the same room as them. Jiwoong looked at Hanbin in disbelief, like he had been betrayed.

“So he finally asked hyung to spank him?” Hao asked, filling a glass with water and drinking it, staring at both of them from the kitchen’s water fountain.

“You knew?” Jiwoong and Hanbin said in unison.

“Of course I knew! Do you really think Matthew is going to talk about it with Hanbin?” Hao questioned, walking towards his boyfriend and giving him a peck on the lips, sitting on the armchair beside him. “What’s your dilemma about it?”

“As I told your tattletale boyfriend, I don’t know how to tell Matthew that I’m down to do it and try new things with him, even if my initial reaction wasn’t the best one…” Jiwoong rattled on, now having two pairs of judgy eyes on him.

“Well, first I don’t think Matthew would be wanting to find someone else to have these experiences or a relationship with him, hyung!” Hanbin answered what Jiwoong had said before an angry Zhang Hao stormed out of the bedroom. “Like I said, he’s crazy over you and I can assure you he’s one hundred percent monogamous so I am totally sure he’d prefer to have vanilla sex with you than with anyone else!”

“Yeah, Hanbin is right, I have never seen this man so happy and I’ve already seen Matthew high as fuck so… believe us!” Every time Jiwoong had a conversation with Hao, especially when the other was sleepy, he got surprised with how straight to the point and mouthy the man could be. “And, I don’t really think you have to give him an answer… from what I got from the conversation, he asked you to do something and you didn’t react the best way possible?” Jiwoong shook his head, agreeing with Hao’s question. “So you may hope he brings it up or… you could wait for him to misbehave and teach him a lesson.” Hao smirked.

“Oh my God!” Even Hanbin was flabbergasted that he reached for a cushion and threw it in Hao's direction but the man was fast enough to protect his face from it.

“If you think about it I’m right!” Hao said, rolling his eyes at the two men staring at him.

“You probably are right, I mean, it would be a good scenario… but I really wanted to fix it and be the bigger person, I just don’t know exactly what to do. Yet, I’ll keep your thought in mind.” Jiwoong said, closing his eyes, still processing every information he had talked about in the spawn of fifteen minutes with his best friends. Was he overreacting about everything?

“You already are a great boyfriend for caring so much about it, Jiwoong-hyung!” Hao assured him and gave him a sweet smile. “I don’t really think this is bothering Matthew as much as it is bothering you but if he comes to talk to me, I’ll tell you so you can worry less, what do you think?”

Hao was truly trying to help Jiwoong right now.

“Let’s do something tonight, just the four of us! We can buy some drinks, watch a random Studio Ghibli movie and play some League Of Legends ! This will probably take your head off of it!” Hao suggested, looking at Hanbin with those puppy eyes, the ones Jiwoong knew Hanbin was unable to say no to.

“Oh, yes! I think that would be a great idea, particularly because there has been some time since we had some fun with the four of us!” Hanbin happily agreed with Hao, now it was even possible to notice the dimples on his face. “But, please, let’s not let Matthew convince us into watching Howl’s Moving Castle again, please!” The man almost begged in the end.

“This sounds like a very geeky night but…” Jiwoong judged a bit, just to mess with the other two. “I think Matthew would love it! We were talking this morning about how he missed being here… and, of course, how much he missed Hanbin! Sometimes I think they’re married and we are their lovers, Hao!” Jiwoong pestered, looking directly at Zhang Hao.

“I have already moved on from these thoughts and have accepted they’re a package. Hanbin comes with Matthew and Matthew comes with Hanbin. So… we’re a trio or even a foursome!” Hao mocked Hanbin and how mortified he got.

“You two are relentless!” Hanbin got up from the armchair and pointed at Jiwoong. “So, tonight we’ll see each other here! Is eight o’clock good for you two?” He questioned, looking at the time and realising he already needs to go back to the café.

“Yep, eight is great! I only have classes in the afternoon and have to pick Matthew up at six, I think…” Jiwoong forgot this information, he’d have to check the message Matthew had sent him.

“Great information to know! So now you can help me in the café and I’m not accepting a negative answer.” Hanbin said, shushing Jiwoong that was about to protest the younger's request. “No ifs, ands or buts! Your apron is in the third drawer in the kitchen, I’ll wait for you.” He happily said, walking to the door. “And you, sir. Zhang Hao, your shift starts at eleven, you’d better not be late!” After saying that, Hanbin was out of their sight because he had walked down the stairs.

“How can you arrive late to your shift if you live upstairs?” Jiwoong questioned Zhang Hao, who was clearly without any defenses to answer that question.

“Don’t even ask me!” It was the only thing that came out of his mouth before getting up and walking towards the bathroom whilst Jiwoong went to get his apron. “I’ll take a shower now, good luck in the café!” He smiled softly at Jiwoong, who just nodded and smiled back.

The rest of the morning was like a blank for Jiwoong. He was already feeling a little better after talking to Hanbing and Zhang Hao about the spanking subject and knowing he was going to spend the night with his three favorite people was already as comforting and rewarding as possible. He really enjoyed helping Hanbin and Zhang Hao in their café, it was good to interact with the people that used to go there because it was a good and calm neighborhood so it made everything worth it.

When Jiwoong left the café after having lunch with Hanbin and Hao, he felt his phone vibrating and when he looked at the screen he saw that it was Matthew sending him some messages. He only opened the chat after entering his car, to read the messages more carefully.

baby mashu~:

hey, my love

i’m finally on my break 

my professors are killing me today ): i hate it and miss you!!

can i call you? i am currently missing your voice!!!!

Jiwoong:

Hello, cutie, sorry for taking so long to answer

I’m currently leaving Hanbinie’s café

baby mashu~:

how do you feel after working for free for two hours?

Jiwoong:

Well, I had a free lunch so it was 100% worth it!

I’ll call you now, do you mind if I’m inside the car?

baby mashu~:

not at all!!!

i just miss you!!

call me asap!

And as he was told to, he looked at himself in the rear view mirror and fixed his hair really fast before pressing the call button. Matthew answered right away.

Hello, pretty boy, how’s your research going? Is it killing you?” Jiwoong asked, staring at Matthew on his phone screen. The man looked worn out.

“I would say it’s easier to ask if Mr. Lee is killing me or not. I honestly think I’m the first student he likes in years because he only asks things for me…” Matthew whispered some parts of his saying, like it was a secret but he probably just didn’t want anybody to hear what he was talking about.

“Oh, it must be so hard to be smart, I envy you, Seok Woohyun!” Jiwoong provoked while lovingly looking at the screen. “But I have some good news for you!”

“Tell me, tell me!” Matthew already looks happier just by hearing this.

“Hao suggested that we make a movie and game night tonight so we can spend some time together and relax a little bit. What do you think?” Jiwoong asked, already knowing Matthew’s answer.

“Oh my, I think that’s a great idea, baby! I miss the times where we spent every weekend together doing absolutely nothing important or relevant!” Matthew ranted and Jiwoong laughed a bit. Their routine was definitely crazier and busier since Matthew had started studying again.

“You don’t have to worry about anything, ok? I’ll buy the drinks before picking you up from classes, then we can go to my house to get our things or take a shower and then we go to your and Hanbin’s apartment! Is that good for you?” Jiwoong suggested, thinking about how to do everything without being in a hurry. Gladly the university where he worked was downtown in the city so everything was close and quick.

“I am already looking forward to it!” Matthew’s voice was calm now and both of them spent some seconds just looking at the cellphone’s screen, admiring each other with the loveliest look on their faces. “I miss you.” The younger pouted.

“I miss you too, my love, I’m counting the minutes to see you again.” Jiwoong comforted him and before Matthew could say anything else his name was called by someone in the library.

“I think I have to go.” Matthew said, the lukewarmness was noticeable in his voice. “I hope you have good classes today, babe, don’t let those college students tire you, ok?” He tried to lift the mood up, more for himself than for Jiwoong. “I love you!”

“I promise I’ll have lots of stamina just for you, babe.” Both of them laughed and Jiwoong could swear Matthew’s cheeks even got redder. “I love you too, see you soon!”

And, just like that, against their will, Matthew ended the call but soon after, Jiwoong saw a notification pop up on his cellphone with a message from Matthew.

baby mashu~:

i love you!!!

Jiwoong:

I love you too, dearie.

Jiwoong chuckled about it while starting the car and driving to his apartment. Since going to Hanbin’s place and helping in the café wasn’t in his original plans for the day he’d have to be really quick changing his clothes and going to work, since he was the teacher he unfortunately didn’t have the privilege of coming to class just to sign the attendance form.

Jiwoong, at least, could be a little happy because more than 70% of the students enrolled in his classes were always present. He didn’t know if that was because the students really liked him, if they were really interested in History or if they just wanted the maximum attendance in their academic transcript to have better chances in the job market. Some Koreans were really perfectionists.

Fortunately, he had time to go home, change, brush his teeth and even watch some random videos on TikTok that Matthew had sent him the day before, making sure to answer everything or else Matthew would be sad and think he wasn’t interested in what he had sent him. After leaving home for the third time in the same day, Jiwoong went to university and smiled when he had just stepped foot outside of his car and was already hearing some students greet him; he unironically felt so old hearing a bunch of nineteen year olds calling him “Mr. Kim” or “Sir. Kim”, he wasn’t even thirty yet — it took him some time to grasp the idea that they were being polite, it was just… weird.

The classes he taught were good. The students were very participative and discussed some topics with Jiwoong, which made him feel even better because he felt proud of himself knowing that he was being useful for something. He taught two different classes that day, each was two hours and a half and he was definitely tired in the end, that’s why he allowed the students to sign the attendance form and use the rest of the class to do some research and start preparing their final presentation and paper. Now, if they had really used their time on something useful or not wasn’t really of his concern.

Now was already the best time of his day: he was about to leave work and go get his amazing boyfriend, who he missed a lot. He grabbed his cellphone and sent Matthew a message, letting him know that in a few minutes he would be in front of the library waiting for him.

Jiwoong:

Hey, babe, I’m leaving work right noww

I’ll be there in some minutes

baby mashu~:

i’m already waiting for you …

(no i’m not, i didn’t even handed the books back to the woman in the front desk, take your time coming plss i don’t want to make you wait

i completely lost track of time 

i’m sorry

Jiwoong:

No worries, my love

I’ll go to the supermarket to buy the drinks for tonight while you do your things, ok?

You don’t have to hurry up, take your time, hm?

baby mashu~:

i just want to see youuuu ):

Jiwoong:

Go organize your things, then!

I miss you already 

Going to put the phone down now, I’m starting the car

See you, my love

baby mashu~:

i hate it that you’re so uptight!!!!

still, i love you

see you in a few minutes <3

Jiwoong just read the last messages from his notification center and smiled, loosening up the tie he was wearing, already feeling a lot more comfortable. The whole seriousness of having to dress formally to work was still so uncanny for him but the other teachers said he’ll feel less weirded out soon and he chose to believe that.

As he arrived at the supermarket, he took a picture and sent it to Matthew just to bother his boyfriend, who he knew was probably hurrying up to organize everything he, his colleagues and his teachers used the whole afternoon. And, being a good boyfriend, besides buying the drinks for the night, Jiwoong also bought a sweet treat for Matthew.

To Jiwoong’s surprise, there wasn’t a lot of traffic so it wasn’t long until he was in front of the library waiting for Matthew and, of course, he had to wait for him for a few minutes but that really wasn’t a problem for him, it just gave him time to sing and appreciate the wave to earth song that was playing on the speakers. Matthew’s playlist was really that good.

Once Matthew finally arrived, a big smile grew on both of their faces, making the mood so much better out of nowhere. Matthew was really the color in Jiwoong’s day so he made the effort of leaving the car just to open the passenger’s door for his boyfriend.

“Hey, pretty!” Jiwoong said, kissing Matthew’s cheek and grabbing his backpack, putting it on the back seat, then closing the door for Matthew.

“First, hello!” Matthew answered Jiwoong the moment he was already inside the car. “Second, I can’t believe you looked so hot today and I couldn’t see you for like… half of the day?! It’s so unfair that I’m not in one of your classes!” He sniffled, still looking at Jiwoong like, somehow, that was his fault.

“I’m sorry, sir, but you are the one that didn’t choose History as a career!” Jiwoong joked and left Matthew speechless.

“I can still change professions, hmpf!” Matthew concluded, making Jiwoong instantly laugh.

“You have me all to yourself now, babe.” Jiwoong said, convincing him to stop this whole act with eight words only.

“Lucky me…” Matthew whispered, wrapping his hand in Jiwoong’s tie and pulling him closer, just to be able to kiss him.

Thank God the windows in Jiwoon’s car were tinted.

It wasn’t a long kiss but they took their time and effort for it. It was calm, soft and their lips were used to express how much they had missed each other that day; Matthew’s hand was still grabbing his tie — making it harder for Jiwoong to pull away from him — and Jiwoong’s hand went straight to Matthew’s cheeks, caressing his fluffy and warm skin.

“I love you.” Matthew added when their lips weren’t touching anymore.

“I love you too.” Jiwoong smiled, giving him an eskimo kiss, which always made Matthew blush. “Now let’s go, we’ll apparently have a long night with Hanbin and Zhang Hao!”

“I have spent the whole afternoon thinking about it!” Matthew said, taking Jiwoong’s cellphone and searching for another song to play. Now the mood was completely different from before because Matthew had put Green Day on shuffle to play, both of them spent the whole way singing for the songs like two crazy people.

They decided they had to be really quick when they got to their place because Hanbin and Hao were already spamming their group on KakaoTalk, asking where they were. In which they responded with a simple text message saying: it’s not even eight yet, y’all are so impatient!

They arrived on Hanbin’s place before even seven thirty, Matthew had never been this early, if he was being honest. Hanbin and Hao were already laying on the couch with the TV on when Matthew opened the door and that was enough to make Hanbin jump out of there just to greet the youngest.

“You two should get a room!” Hao almost screamed from the couch while watching Matthew and Hanbin hugging.

“I brought the drinks!” Jiwoong announced, closing the door with his feet and putting the bags with beer and soju on top of the kitchen table.

“HA! I told you he would be responsible enough to buy drinks for us. Now you owe me!” Hanbin celebrated with a ridiculous dance while pointing at Hao, who just rolled his eyes at Hanbin.

“I bet you sent him a message reminding him to buy it just for you to win our bet!” Hao complained and looked at the TV again, passing through the crazy amount of movies that were on his ‘To Watch’ list.

“No, I didn’t!” Hanbin defended himself like Hao was accusing him of committing the worst crime ever. Jiwoong just laughed at the interaction, eyeing Matthew and Hanbin who were already all smiley and talking to each other like two kids that have the same hobby.

Jiwoong put the supermarket bags on the table and took the beers and the soju out, putting the beers inside the fridge, grabbing four shot glasses and taking it to the living room, where the other three men were.

“One for you, one for you, one for you and one for me!” Jiwoong smiled while handing everyone a glass and pouring the liquid inside the glasses. Hanbin made a countdown and they all gulped it down together; their faces were just hilarious at first because of the strong taste — but that would definitely change after some shots so it was ok.

“What are we watching today?” Jiwoong asked, looking at the TV and putting the soju bottle beside him, on the ground, just to notice Matthew grabbing it a few moments later and to pour some for himself. Matthew became a menace when he drank soju but that wasn’t really a problem that night because they were staying in, so he didn’t have to worry too much about it that night.

“I think we should watch Howl’s Moving Castle!” Matthew happily announced, receiving a disapproving look from Zhang Hao.

“No, actually, Howl’s Moving Castle is banned from this household! I swear to God we have watched it more than ten times just because of you, Matt!” Hao said, making a pout grow in Matthew’s face. So cute.

“It’s not my fault that it is a good movie!” He argued but Zhang Hao definitely was not convinced.

“We’re not watching it!” Hao kept looking at the TV. “Have you already watched Pearl?”

“We haven’t…” Matthew said, referring to him and Jiwoong.

“No, no! What is it about?” Hanbin asked, drinking another soju shot.

“I don’t really know… It’s that movie where Mia Goth screams ‘Please, I’m a star!’, I think… I just know Mia Goth is in it!” Zhang Hao imitated the scene and all the other men in the room understood which movie he was talking about because everyone had seen that part of the movie on Twitter. It was literally the only video some people on Twitter used for months in 2022

“I think it would be a good idea! We can watch it and judge half of the queer people who have watched it and said it was the best movie ever!” Matthew said, looking at the TV while drinking another shot. Okay, maybe Jiwoong should be a little worried.

“Oh, yeah, because we are the best ones to judge someone else’s taste!” Hanbin said just to bother Matthew with his comment.

“I don’t know about you but my taste is impeccable!” He rolled his eyes at Hanbin and looked at Jiwoong, offering the rest of the soju inside the bottle for him; Jiwoong accepted it and after pouring it to him, Matthew got up to get another bottle.

“Grab a beer for me, please!” Hao asked, making doe eyes at Matthew that would be incapable of saying no to him.

Matthew ended up bringing a beer for everyone and an extra soju bottle for him.

Jiwoong knew that it would be impossible to keep Matthew and Hanbin apart from each other that night so he wouldn’t even try to do it so after grabbing the beer Matthew got from him, he gave his boyfriend a kiss and went straight to sit with Hao on the couch. Leaving Hanbin and Matthew on the mattress on the ground.

“We’ll be a couple today!” Hao jokingly said, lifting the blanket he was using to let Jiwoong sit beside him. Zhang Hao rested his head on Jiwoong’s shoulder, making himself more comfortable there.

“I am watching you, Hao-hyung!” Matthew threatened while squinching his eyes at the Chinese man beside Jiwoong.

“Yah! You have already stolen my boyfriend!” Zhang Hao sipped his beer after answering Matthew, who just laughed it off. Hanbin laughed at the interaction.

After the movie started playing, Zhang Hao and Jiwoong kept paying attention to it and even talked about some parts of the movie. To be honest, it seemed more of a comedy movie than a horror film but they could understand why Twitter liked it so much so they just kept watching. The two oldest ones were so focused on the movie that they didn’t even notice when Matthew and Hanbin disappeared from the living room.

“Now where did they go?” Hao asked, a bit surprised from their sudden disappearance.

“I bet 20 bucks that they’re playing League of Legends in Hanbin’s room!” Jiwoong said, smiling because he was definitely right.

“I am not betting with you, you’re always right!” Hao joked, just leaning closer to Jiwoong, still watching the movie. Now Jiwoong was not paying all his attention to the movie since his curiosity about the game was also present now and a few seconds later he could only hear Matthew’s voice saying: This damn Tryndamere, I swear he’s focusing on only killing me!

That made Jiwoong chuckle.

“Do you want another beer?” Jiwoong asked Zhang Hao, who nodded, accepting the drink so Jiwoong got up to get them two more beers. “I can’t believe it!”

“What happened?” Hao questioned, pausing the movie and moving his body just to look at Jiwoong.

“They took the whole beer-pack and took it to the room with them!” Jiwoong said still looking for more. “I bought two packs and they took one just for themselves!”

“I can’t believe these two!” Hao laughed. “Take a soju bottle, then, I don’t mind!” Jiwoong agreed and walked towards the man again.

“What do you think about ordering some pizza?” Hao asked, both were already hungry and the other two, probably, were too. “It will have arrived when they finish their game! I don’t know… every time Hanbin starts playing it I lose him for at least one hour and a half!” He joked about it.

“Especially if it’s a ranked game!” Jiwoong added, smiling while opening the soju bottle. “We can order, what topping do you think Hanbin wants? Because Matthew will definitely ask for cheese!”

“Let me order, I know a pizza place near here that is very good!” Hao expressed and started frenetically searching for his cellphone that was probably lost in the blanket. “But, you’re paying!” Jiwoong just agreed to it, there was no arguing with Hao about money; that man had the ability to remember all the times he paid for something and Jiwoong didn’t pay back and Jiwoong wasn’t in the mood to argue that night.

When the pizza was already ordered they played the movie again because they saw that there wasn’t much left for it to end. And it was like everything was connected because once the movie ended, the pizza place had sent Hao a message letting him know that the pizza was about to be delivered and after losing in an ‘odd or even game’ it was decided that Jiwoong was the one that needed to go downstairs to pay and take the pizza. It wasn’t long until the delivery guy was there, so Jiwoong was quick to go back to Hanbin’s place.

“I can’t believe you guys left the room the moment the pizza arrived! It’s like you two were waiting for the right moment!” Jiwoong could hear Zhang Hao as he was opening the door.

“I swear we left the room as soon as our match was over!” Matthew defended himself, walking towards Jiwoong and helping with the door.

“Did you two, at least, win the game?” The oldest asked, putting the pizza on the table.

“Of course! Have you ever seen Matthew lose when playing as Lilia?” Hanbin asked.

“Mono Lilia for a reason!” Matthew all smiley remarked.

“You two are so nerdy. It gives me the ick!” Hao said just to annoy Matthew and Hanbin, making the first move to take a slice of pizza.

“I was going to take that one!” Hanbin gasped at Zhang Hao and that made Hao offer his boyfriend the slice he had taken.

“And how was the movie?” Matthew asked after accepting the slice of cheese pizza Jiwoong chose for him.

Now he had a drunk Matthew just for himself, since Hanbin and Hao were in their own world. Jiwoong could notice how drunk Matthew was because of his half-opened eyes and how red his cheeks were; apparently now Matthew had to be watched even around beer, not only soju.

“The movie is pretty good, babe, I’d say it’s hilarious, even.” Jiwoong said, taking the first bite of the slice of pizza he chose. Right now, his stomach was thanking him because the last piece of food he had eaten were some crackers with coffee in the teacher’s room when he was leaving to pick Matthew up from the library.

“I’m glad you liked it!” Matthew said, getting closer to Jiwoong and asking for a kiss — in which Jiwoong didn’t hesitate to give him.

“I am glad you enjoyed the night, babe, I know how much you miss having Hanbin around!” Jiwoong comforted the man who was taking another slice of pizza. “But I have a feeling you drank too much!”

“No, I didn’t!” Even if Matthew tried to hide it, the pitch of his voice betrayed himself. Matthew’s voice only got really pitched when he was really overwhelmed and stressed about something or when he was drunk; and, in that moment, Matthew had no reason to be stressed.

“I bet you did!” Jiwoong assured and laughed at his boyfriend who couldn’t even find the right words to defend himself at that moment.

The four of them ate the pizza and started talking about the most random things ever and that really made Jiwoong feel so good, it was really great to spend the night with the three best people in his life, he couldn’t ask for anything better. But, since, Hanbin and Zhang Hao were the owners of the café downstairs, their night had to end a bit earlier than Jiwoong and Matthew’s night, so, the moment all of them were full because of all they had drank and ate, Hanbin and Zhang Hao said goodnight to the other two and went straight to the bedroom. And, honestly, it was getting pretty late so Jiwoong didn’t even question them.

“Do you want to go to sleep too, my love?” Jiwoong asked Matthew, petting his boyfriend’s hair with his fingers.

“I’m not really sleepy…” He definitely was. “Can we please watch Howl’s Moving Castle, Jiwoon-hyung?” Matthew almost begged while grabbing Jiwoong’s t-shirt and bringing him closer to him; now, Matthew was leaning against the table and with both of Jiwoong’s hands beside him, there was nowhere for him to go.

“I can’t believe you’re playing the ‘hyung’ card on me, Woohyun!” Jiwoong explained, pretending to be annoyed at the man but after he heard Matthew’s cute and quiet plea, there was no way he’d say no to the younger. “Okay, okay! Go to the couch and start watching the movie, as soon as I finish cleaning the kitchen, I’ll go there with you, hm?”

Matthew celebrated with a little dance and holding Jiwoong’s face with his two hands, giving the man a long but loud peck on the lips. Jiwoong just laughed and started cleaning the mess the kitchen was; while cleaning he noticed Hanbin leaving the room with a bag with the empty beer cans, of course Zhang Hao wouldn’t let Hanbin sleep if their room wasn’t clean.

“I can’t believe you gave in and let him watch the movie!” Hanbin whispered while walking past Jiwoong.

“What can I say? I’m a fool for him!” He didn’t defend himself, there was no reason to.

“You’re so smitten!” He said, smiling at Jiwoong and going to his bedroom again.

He just laughed off what Hanbin had said and finished organizing the kitchen, putting the trash away and washing the plates, cutlery and the glasses they had used to drink soju. When he had finished everything he walked up to the couch just to see Matthew sleeping while the movie was playing on the TV — he knew that was going to happen — so he just laughed it off and turned the TV off and carried Matthew to his bedroom in his arms. His boyfriend was fast asleep because usually when Jiwoong carried Matthew, the man would wake up just to fight Jiwoong to try to convince the man into letting him watch the movie to the end but today this didn’t happen.

Jiwoong laid Matthew down on the bed and covered him with the bedsheets, closing the door and walking towards the master bathroom to brush his teeth and face before sleeping. As he finished everything, he closed the curtains before sliding into bed and snuggling up near Matthew, not really touching the man because he was afraid of waking the man up.

“My love…?” Matthew’s voice could hardly be heard from how sleepy and low his voice sounded.

“Yes, baby?” Jiwoong opened his eyes and glanced at Matthew, who was turning his body to Jiwoong’s side.

“I don’t like to sleep with you so far away from me.” Matthew said very slowly, he was so sleepy that it was hard for him to even form sentences.

“I’m right here, pretty.” Jiwoong got closer and could feel Matthew’s warm body next to his. He noticed Matthew tried to say something but it was impossible to understand his babbling while Jiwoong held him in his arms, cuddling the man to sleep.

“I love you.” Matthew whispered after some time, Jiwoong smiled and placed a kiss on the nape of Matthew’s neck.

“I love you too.” Jiwoong soothed.

And for the second night in a row, sleeping was really easy for both of them. Nice.
