Chapter 61
■
The room he was staying in was at the end of the 3rd floor. It was a bit more spacious than the room they had shared in Naples, and the facilities were better too. As he had said, there was even an air conditioner with an outdoor unit integrated into the window.
It seemed best to isolate him from the outside as much as possible to calm him down. Jiin closed the windows and shutters and turned on the air conditioner on low.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he had been silent for over 10 minutes already.
He seemed lost in deep thought, looking down at his own loosely clasped hands. Jiin could tell his entire body was still in a state of tension. Blue flame-like excitement was still hovering around him.
Jiin leaned against the wardrobe across from him and crossed his arms.
“He won’t make this bigger even if it’s just embarrassing that he got hit. More than anyone, the one who wants this to pass quietly… would be that guy.”
“……”
He slowly raised his head. The glittering madness that had knocked someone down was gone, and pitiful eyes like a frightened young animal looked at Jiin pleadingly.
His expression showed he didn’t care at all whether Luca sued him or did anything else, and was more afraid of the words Jiin would throw at him.
“You must have learned martial arts.”
“A few things for self-defense…”
“What you did earlier wasn’t self-defense but attack.”
“……”
His head dropped down again. Looking down at his hunched broad shoulders, Jiin went to sit beside him and plopped down heavily. Both their bodies swayed lightly up and down from the elasticity of the hard cheap mattress.
The room with no lights on and even the shutters closed was appropriately dim. Just the thin rays of light filtering through the slats of the shutters were enough to distinguish everything in the room.
Almost touching but not quite, there was only about a finger’s width of gap between his knee and Jiin’s.
“I’m sorry.”
“……”
“For putting hyung in a difficult position…”
Whew… Jiin tilted his head back and exhaled deeply. The excitement and tension weren’t easily subsiding for Jiin either. But he didn’t want him to apologize. He wasn’t angry, and didn’t think it was troublesome either. Rather, I…
With his chin raised, he turned his head to look sideways.
“What… made you so angry.”
“……”
He didn’t answer. He firmly set his already stubborn-looking lips and turned his gaze toward the wall. It was clear he didn’t regret hitting Luca at all.
Jiin reached out and placed his hand on his shoulder. The muscles of his rigidly tensed shoulder twitched.
Stroking along his soaked shoulder line, he kneaded the darkly tanned nape of his neck. He brushed the neatly trimmed hair at the back several times in reverse. It was rough yet tickling.
Then he lightly grasped the tip of his chin. He gently pulled him to look this way.
As if Jiin’s hand contained some irresistible powerful force, he entrusted himself to Jiin’s hand without resistance.
Touching him, stroking him, sitting right beside him and looking into his eyes. It was contact with him that he had been trying to avoid, yet it was disappointingly natural. As if he had always been touching him this way.
What was supposed to happen had simply happened.
He too had eyes as frightened as his own. That rather reassured Jiin.
Moving the hand that had been holding his chin, he cupped his left cheek. Slightly tilting his head to rest his cheek against his palm, he was like a gentle animal.
He leaned his upper body toward him who was frozen stiff, unable to lean further this way. He slowly blinked his eyelids and lowered his gaze. As if permitting everything.
His lips were dry. And hot. From top to bottom, from bottom to top. So he wouldn’t be startled, he moved slowly so only the surfaces of their lips brushed against each other.
Squeak. Then he completely leaned his body toward him, supporting himself on the mattress. The end of his shoulder touched around Jiin’s collarbone. Putting weight into it, he pressed his lips firmly against his lower lip. He wasn’t even breathing, his hands tightly clasped together on his thighs.
When he pulled their lips apart, his eyelids were trembling. Yet as if witnessing something very surprising, he couldn’t take his eyes off Jiin. Jiin’s forehead dropped onto his shoulder as he let out the breath he’d been holding in a thin stream.
Jiin stroked his thick chest. Both were soaked from being hit by the water jet from the fountain.
“Take it off.”
“……”
“You’re wet.”
After hesitating briefly, he soon pulled up the hem of his t-shirt. Beside him struggling to remove the clothes clinging to his skin, Jiin also took off his top.
Heavy wet laundry dropped onto the wooden floor one by one.
Jiin’s fingertips ticklishly traced up his long arms. Circularly stroking the end of his shoulder, he kissed his bare skin. Smooch, smooch… As Jiin was pressing his lips along the tanned skin, he suddenly burst into laughter and buried his forehead in the shoulder before him.
Why is he laughing? Did I do something wrong? Thinking he might be worried about such things, Jiin cleared his throat and lifted his head. As expected, he was looking at Jiin with an anxious expression.
“No… we went swimming. It tastes salty.”
“……”
His face showed he didn’t understand what was funny about that. He was so tense it was pitiful. Could this be his first time? With looks like that, he could have had his first experience plenty of times before even becoming an adult.
Lightly pulling his arm, Jiin tapped his own shoulder.
“I probably taste salty too, right?”
It meant for him to check directly.
Whether he was reluctant, his body swayed hesitantly as Jiin pulled. When he lowered his head over the shoulder, a faint sea scent rose from his wet hair too.
Looking down at his face placing his lips on his shoulder, Jiin felt a strange feeling. It was cute enough to make him smile, yet his overly careful attitude made him impatient. He wanted him to do more, not just keep his lips there but taste him in various ways.
When he raised his hand to stroke his hair, he pulled his lips away and shook his head slightly.
“I can’t… tell.”
“Then try licking with your tongue.”
“……”
As if he’d heard a very bold and lewd suggestion, he startled and looked at Jiin with wide eyes. Realizing they were too close, he soon lowered his gaze, but he didn’t seem to dislike the suggestion to lick.
His lips were dry, but the tongue he extended was red and wet. Like tasting the very top of soft ice cream, he stuck out his tongue and licked over the skin. Only two or three times. Yet like someone who had completed some great mission and was drained of energy, he leaned his head heavily on Jiin’s shoulder. His trembling breath escaping from his lips touched directly against Jiin’s bare chest.
Stroking his curved back, Jiin spread his legs. He erased the gap that had remained between his knees and his own.
“How is it?”
“Just…”
“……”
“I just feel like I’m going to die.”
He lightly pushed his thigh with the knee that had been touching. He hooked his right leg over his left thigh. With his hands, he felt each muscle that curved delicately over his broad back.
Lifting his head from Jiin’s shoulder, he looked like someone who had just woken from deep sleep or was suffering from a severe hangover. His eyes were bloodshot and his focus was blurry. But this time he didn’t avoid Jiin’s face that was right in front of him.
As if waiting for a kiss, he slowly lowered his eyelids.
Jiin put strength into the leg hooked over his thigh and sat closer to him. Shoulder to shoulder, arm to arm pressed tightly together.
He wrapped around his nape. Pulling so his face turned slightly downward, he deeply overlapped their lips. It was different from the earlier kiss. He repeatedly opened and closed his lips to take in the flesh, and turned his jaw to take in the back of the lips, the softer mucous membrane. With the leg hooked over his thigh, he rubbed the back of his calf.
Though not knowing what to do with the caresses coming from multiple directions, he was gradually heating up. His arms that had been maintaining an awkward attention position carefully wrapped around Jiin’s back. His lips that had been obediently submitting to what Jiin did also began to move with their own will little by little.
Smooch, smooch. As if curious about the sound of wet lips deeply engaging and separating, he deliberately made sounds several times while kissing as if testing. In the process becoming gradually bolder, he leaned deeper toward Jiin and burrowed in.
“Mmm, mm. Mm…”
The hand that had only been lightly placed on his side strongly embraced his waist. Supporting his body by leaning on that arm, Jiin slid his hand to the inside of his thigh.
The front of his swimsuit was stretched taut and pointing upward, showing he was already fully erect. While pushing his tongue into his mouth as he could only rub, bite, and suck lips without using his tongue… Jiin felt along his firm thigh.
He put his hand inside the edge of the swimsuit. Of course he wasn’t wearing underwear. The swimsuit had mesh inside to contain the cock.
The moment he slyly pushed his fingertips inside that mesh, he startled and trembled while pulling Jiin’s wrist outward. His completely reddened face looked like someone feeling pain.
Then Jiin was almost certain this was his first experience.
Jiin, who was twenty-four, had also never had direct sex through penetration. So it wouldn’t be impossible for him at twenty to have no experience.
Even while showing such blatant interest in him, he had never tried any physical advances. He might be the cautious type when it comes to this.
As if apologizing for his earlier action, he gently stroked Jiin’s leg placed on his thigh. That hard thing… it doesn’t seem like he doesn’t want to touch it though.
Jiin glanced at the bag placed in the hallway leading to the entrance. It was the mesh bag containing the items they had taken to the beach.
“For lubricant… we could substitute with tanning oil, but we don’t have condoms…”
“……”
“Do you have any diseases by chance? You don’t, right?”
After staring blankly at Jiin for a moment wondering what he meant, he soon let out an “ah…” exclamation and shook his head. His entire ears were burning dark red.
“I don’t have… any diseases.”
If this was probably his first experience, there’s no way he’d have STDs or anything. Same for me.
“I’m healthy too. So you’re agreeing to do it without condoms, right?”
“……Whew.”
He couldn’t bring himself to answer and only exhaled deeply. Even while being so embarrassed, he absolutely wouldn’t say he didn’t want to do it, which was cute and made Jiin want to laugh, but this time he didn’t laugh out loud.
Jiin kissed his cheek with a smooch sound as he stroked his leg, then got up and approached the bag. When he lifted the handle, the spot where the bag had been was damply wet.
While rummaging inside looking for oil, Jiin spoke with his back to him. Jiin wasn’t experienced enough to have such conversations face to face either. He could just act a bit more shameless than him.
“Um… you might not know, but. It takes some time to make it soft. I’ll loosen up in the bathroom and come back, so… sorry, but wait a bit…”
The wooden floor creaked quite a bit, yet when had he approached so silently? He who had come right beside him firmly grabbed his wrist. Jiin looked up at him without straightening his back.
“That… can’t I do it?”
