Chapter 14
“Nothing’s wrong.”
I didn’t take my eyes off Mitchell.
Mitchell, tease me a little more.
Instead of saying it out loud, I just swayed my hips gently. The hand on my buttocks suddenly felt ticklish.
“What should you do when your mind suddenly changes?”
Despite the somewhat unfriendly question, Mitchell gave an answer.
“You should do as it’s changed.”
Then he slipped his hand inside my triangle swimsuit. Mitchell’s hand slid to the center.
Startled by the sudden touch, I looked at the two humans in front of me. If they were to come closer, they would see where Mitchell’s hand was inside me.
I blinked my wide-open eyes and then composed myself. Mitchell was already mine, but if there were humans around who would pounce on Mitchell, I couldn’t protect him completely.
So I left Mitchell’s hand alone. I didn’t pay attention to Gerard and Wizen either.
Mitchell is a human who always finishes what he starts the way he wants. Whatever his intention, let it be. I won’t reject him anymore. Even if those guys walk over here and see where Mitchell’s hand is.
“Mitchell, want to go for a drive with me tomorrow?”
“Just the two of us?”
“Yeah.”
I made plans with Mitchell as if to show off. It might not be a big deal to those guys, but it was a bold move for me.
“Sure.”
Mitchell answered while massaging my buttocks. I just flinched, neither telling Mitchell to stop nor pulling away. I stayed put, quietly.
I know Mitchell is crazy. So I thought he might even insert his finger inside me like this. Then how should I react?
Ah, I decided not to worry about it anymore.
I just smiled calmly at Mitchell, and Mitchell smiled back at me. His smile seemed particularly bright.
That seemed to be the signal.
“Ah!”
He finally touched that spot inside.
“What’s wrong?”
Gerard asked when I suddenly cried out. I managed my expression and quickly made up an excuse.
“I left some money in the pants I wore yesterday, and I just threw them away. They got torn while snorkeling. Oh, damn. I just remembered.”
“How much?”
“Probably almost a hundred dollars?”
“You should be more careful.”
Even though it’s my money, money is still precious. Gerard shook his head with a disgusted expression.
“Yeah, I should.”
I managed to get through the crisis somehow, but the finger digging into the sensitive part remained. Mitchell looked at me with an unchanged expression. He quietly satisfied his desire while wiggling his finger.
I was dying on my end. I had decided to accept whatever Mitchell did, but my honest body didn’t cooperate. If I make one more moan here, I’ll really be caught. Even though I thought it would be okay to get caught, my heart was pounding.
Just then, Gerard got a phone call. As Wizen lay back down on the sun bed, Gerard also lay down and started talking. Mitchell, as if he had been waiting for this, brought his face close to mine and kissed me. My lips were sucked and crushed, but I couldn’t concentrate.
I looked at Gerard and Wizen with a pale face. What if they turn their heads towards me?
But I was just thinking. In reality, I didn’t resist at all.
“Why are you just staying still?”
Mitchell asked. He meant why I wasn’t pushing him away. His whisper was barely audible.
“…I’m angry.”
“About what?”
“Because there are so many humans aiming for you.”
“Now do you understand?”
“What?”
“That’s how I felt.”
Mitchell expressed his desire to abandon everything and be with me randomly, like now, like before, like that day. There were so many instances that I couldn’t list them all.
I kept my mouth shut for Mitchell’s sake, but Mitchell seemed to be suffering alone, unable to have me all to himself.
He was restraining himself alone, imagining moments when I might abandon him.
“…Mitchell, I understand now.”
“…”
“How you feel.”
I turned my body and wrapped my arms around Mitchell’s neck. Whether they saw from behind or not, I deliberately made a sound as I stuck my tongue into his mouth.
As I sucked on his lower lip, Mitchell laughed softly. Even though our lower parts touched and gradually swelled, strangely, I didn’t feel excited.
It was a more sophisticated sense of liberation rather than crude excitement.
I couldn’t change because appearances were important, and I was afraid of changes that might turn the world upside down, but because of that, I made Mitchell suffer. But I was the same. I was anxious that someone might take Mitchell away.
This wasn’t a matter of trusting or not trusting Mitchell. Everything except us two was full of distrust. That’s how the world looked.
Today, I broke that. For the first time, I kissed Mitchell in front of a third party. We announced that we love each other.
Mitchell kept smiling throughout the kiss and fiercely thrust his lower part against me. He showed his love by embracing me as if he would crush me.
The first time is hard, but once you do it, it’s not a big deal. Now I felt like I could touch and kiss Mitchell even in front of cameras.
“I love you.”
As soon as our lips parted, I confessed to Mitchell. I raised my voice as if to let those guys lying behind hear.
I let Mitchell hear that this was my heart. That I don’t want to hide ‘us’. Thanks to that, Mitchell smiled.
“You’re cute.”
Instead of saying he loved me back, he said I was cute.
What’s this?
I burst into laughter.
Of course, I let it slide because I already knew he loved me deeply. Mitchell likes cute guys with good bodies. Because he loves me.
While nestled in his arms, I suddenly got curious about what was behind and turned my head. The two humans might have frozen in place while watching us.
“Huh? Where did they go?”
However, Gerard and Wizen had disappeared without a trace. They had quietly retreated without even saying goodbye or making footsteps.
“I told them to go.”
“You did? When?”
“I gestured for them to leave. When you were busy kissing me.”
“Ah… They must have been very surprised?”
“Not at all.”
“Really? Why?”
Why weren’t they surprised to see us? Even though many people suspected our relationship, we had never openly confirmed it.
“They’re dating.”
I didn’t understand at first.
“Gerard and Wizen are dating.”
“What-!”
It was as surprising as the fact that Mitchell and I were dating. I thought they had feelings for Mitchell, but I was completely wrong.
“They weren’t surprised because they already knew about us. That’s why they left to give us space.”
“They knew? How!”
“Gay people usually have good intuition. They’re also quick to pick up on things. I didn’t say much, but they figured it out right away.”
While it shouldn’t be generalized, Gerard and Wizen certainly had good intuition. Or maybe Mitchell had slipped up.
“But then, why were they guarding against me and throwing themselves at you…”
“Hmm.”
Mitchell just pouted his lips without answering. I guess I’ve become a gay person with good intuition too. Suddenly, a strong hypothesis crossed my mind.
“You told them to, didn’t you? To make me jealous.”
This time Mitchell shrugged his shoulders. But he still didn’t answer my question.
“Anyway, Geon-woo, I understand your feelings well. I’m glad you don’t care about other people’s views. Let’s decide when and how we’ll announce our relationship later. A talk show would be best, right? Or should we just spill it on a live broadcast?”
“Hey, Mitchell, you!”
“I love you, Bae Geon-woo.”
Sudden Korean words.
I felt choked up for some reason.
“I love you.”
His voice confessing again seemed to tremble a bit.
“Don’t leave me.”
My love grew feeding on Mitchell’s insecurity. Love was growing vigorously and overwhelming him. I had to suppress his anxiety and clear his airway. So that Mitchell could breathe comfortably.
“Mitchell, you seem a bit timid like me.”
This time my voice trembled.
“Why?”
“What’s with announcing our relationship? That’s so trivial.”
For a moment, Mitchell’s arms around my waist tightened.
“Then?”
His stiff face cracked, and Mitchell smiled. It was fresh and bright as if he had put down all the burdens in his heart. I couldn’t help but smile along with him. I continued speaking while smiling at him.
“Breaking news. Mitchell Cronenwirth and Bae Geon-woo are reportedly dating with marriage in mind.”
“…”
Mitchell didn’t open his mouth for a while. His hand touching my body also stopped still, and we only exchanged gazes.
It was a moment when his frozen expression crumbled. He was surprised, moved, and choked up. No, was that me?
I saw myself in Mitchell’s face.
From expressions to every single action, even misplaced obsession, we resembled each other beautifully. It was so us.
“Finally…”
We were approaching the day when we would announce Mitchell Cronenwirth and Bae Geon-woo to the world.
Finally.
