Chapter Index

    As requested, the cotton swab head gently squeezed into the narrow gap.

    Seo Eui-woo suppressed his impulses as much as possible, slowly inserting it with just his fingertips. Once the tip went in, it slid in smoothly with the semen, without needing extra force.

    “Heut, eugh!”

    “Does it hurt?”

    “……”

    “How is it? Are you alright?”

    “……It feels a bit foreign.”

    “What about like this?”

    Seo Eui-woo pulled the cotton swab out, then slowly thrust his hips forward.

    The thick cock embedded in his ass dug past his prostate, stimulating his urethra as well. The cotton swab head, saturated with the sticky fluid, was pulled out completely and then thrust back in again.

    “Eungeueu!”

    “Ha, look at this. Jae-jin’s lower abdomen is trembling.”

    “Ah, eueuk……”

    “Your expression too… Your eyes are red. I’ve always thought so, but Jae-jin, you’re very sensitive in this hole.”

    Seo Eui-woo kissed the nape of his neck, where the Healing Factor was restoring the bloodshot areas. He left red marks as he carefully rotated the cotton swab inserted inside.

    The soft flesh rubbed thickly, creating a strange sensation. He wanted to pull his hips away out of discomfort, but he was trapped against the bathtub wall and had nowhere to escape.

    Jae-jin’s pupils couldn’t stay still and his gaze wandered. He thought it would hurt to be poked with the hard cotton swab, that he would have to endure the pain, but it wasn’t like that at all.

    It was just… just something…

    “Jae-jin… Honestly, you like this, don’t you?”

    Seo Eui-woo asked gently, pulling out the cotton swab. He shallowly poked the front of his dick hole with the plump cotton swab head, then closely observed Kwon Jae-jin’s reaction, incrementally pushing it deeper.

    “Ah… ah, ah!”

    “Yeah, I knew you’d like it if I scratched the inside.”

    “No, that, eugh……”

    “What feels better? Rotating it inside, or putting it in and taking it out?”

    Seo Eui-woo smiled pleasantly, seeing Jae-jin’s eyes blurred with pleasure. He knew it wasn’t a reaction of dislike. His insides were contracting, his knees were trembling, and the tips of his toes, submerged in the bathwater, were clearly twitching from earlier.

    “D-don’t ask…… I won’t answer.”

    “Why……”

    “Why do you think…… eugh.”

    “Even though it’s only once today?”

    “……”

    “Jae-jin, you said it’s only once. There won’t be a next time. So……”

    “Even if you, try to coax me like that……”

    “Hm? Jae-jin.”

    “Euh……”

    “Jae-jin…… Jae-jin-ah.”

    “Seo Eui-woo, you, crazy…… haa.”

    Kwon Jae-jin covered his face with both palms.

    He tried to accommodate Seo Eui-woo as much as he could, but it always ended up like this. He couldn’t keep up all the way. He didn’t show it outwardly, but in reality, allowing his dick hole to be probed was a momentous decision for Kwon Jae-jin.

    He intended to stay still without expressing anything until Seo Eui-woo was satisfied, but…

    Jae-jin lowered his voice and spoke faintly. The sound of the water droplets rolling off the bathtub was louder than his voice.

    “……It’s.”

    “……”

    “……strange……”

    It was a whisper that couldn’t even be heard, but Seo Eui-woo listened carefully and responded.

    “Yeah, it’s strange?”

    “……Uh.”

    “We’ve done so much strange stuff together, and it’s still strange……?”

    “It’s just, when you rotate it inside…… the feeling.”

    “Yes.”

    “……is ticklish……”

    “Yesss……”

    “When you poke around…… it’s chilling……”

    “……Heuha.”

    Seo Eui-woo laughed, his shoulders shaking at the fading response.

    “Wow, haha, I see…… Yes, I understand. Yeah……”

    The look in his eyes as he gazed at Kwon Jae-jin was deeply affectionate, radiating a rainbow-colored light. It was a look of being so enamored that he didn’t know what to do.

    “Um, Jae-jin, just a moment.”

    “Huh?”

    “Let me just go first……”

    Unable to contain his excitement, Seo Eui-woo plunged the cotton swab in deeply and began to thrust his hips, pinning Kwon Jae-jin against the bathtub wall.

    “Ah! Eugh.”

    Losing his balance, Kwon Jae-jin slid down the bathtub wall. In an instant, he splashed into the hot water, and bubbles frantically surged to the surface.

    Seo Eui-woo didn’t stop thrusting his hips even though Kwon Jae-jin had fallen into the water. He supported his back with his hand so he could straighten up, continuing to thrust his lower body. The pressed body shook violently beneath the bathtub water.

    “Eup……!”

    Kwon Jae-jin barely managed to get his head above water. He tensed up, feeling like he would fall back into the water at any moment as he was being shaken by Seo Eui-woo’s arm supporting his back.

    He braced his hands on the bottom of the bathtub to stabilize himself, but it wasn’t enough to hold on. Eventually, he lost his balance again and was pushed back by Seo Eui-woo’s forceful thrusts.

    “Ah, heok……! Eueut……!”

    Jae-jin completely fell into the water, and water splashed everywhere. Kwon Jae-jin’s gasping face was submerged amidst the rippling water and rising bubbles. It was a mesmerizing sight. He should help Kwon Jae-jin up, but he couldn’t resist the urge to kiss him right away.

    Seo Eui-woo sweetly curved his melting gray eyes into a smile and plunged his head into the water with Jae-jin, thrusting his hips mindlessly.

    The two were entangled in the bubbles, and their breathless lips met.

    Kwon Jae-jin, who was already half-submerged in the water, was forced to sink completely to the bottom of the bathtub.

    “Peuheu……”

    “Eum……”

    Seo Eui-woo didn’t close his eyes even underwater, staring intently at Kwon Jae-jin, sucking and licking his tongue and lips. He couldn’t bear how much he loved the way his body responded, contracting whenever he deeply buried himself inside. No matter how many times he overlapped his lips and kissed, no matter how much he bit and sucked every part of his body, no matter how much he probed every corner of his mucous membranes, it wasn’t enough.

    It felt like he was floating into the sky, or sinking deep into the ground. The depths of his heart were heavy and tingling, but it was different from the vibrations felt when their Cores resonated.

    He gasped heavily, trembled, his eyes were bloodshot, and his heart raced.

    He didn’t know if he was drowning or not, and he was simply preoccupied with tangling and indulging.

    He didn’t know if they were in the water or somewhere else entirely.

    Jae-jin, short of breath, couldn’t even struggle and spat out air bubbles, and Seo Eui-woo, stubbornly kissing him until the very last moment, finally pulled Jae-jin out of the water. Even then, without taking a moment to catch his breath, he clung to him and mashed his tongue and lips together haphazardly. They were so close that their bodies seemed to bruise, unwilling to separate.

    *

    At dawn, radiance shone on the vast earth under the clearing mist. Sunrise was beginning over the steep mountain ridge.

    The dazzling sun rose, warmly covering the canyon with its light. It was as if a thin blanket woven from crimson sunlight had been laid over the area.

    The end of winter and the beginning of spring.

    Small sprouts were slowly emerging from the ground, and new buds were visible on the branches. Mountain animals awakened from hibernation made small sounds, and dewdrops sparkled on the grass.

    Northwest of the Special Residential District. The canyon from the past…

    Two people standing at the edge of the high terrain silently looked down at the wondrous scenery.

    Even with the changing seasons, the scenery was still breathtaking.

    The nine streams winding below the cliff were visible, and two pairs of rainbows overlapped next to the constantly flowing stream water. The multicolored light, distinguished by colorful spectrums, was so close it felt like you could reach out and touch it.

    “……Wow.”

    Seo Eui-woo admired softly, holding Kwon Jae-jin’s hand tightly.

    The dawn breeze, cutting through the sunrise light, swept through his hair, and his brilliantly shining gray eyes were visible through the lightly swaying black hair.

    “We finally made it, the two of us.”

    His voice sounded a bit hoarse.

    Well, Jae-jin’s voice was the same. If he opened his mouth to respond, a heavily suppressed voice would come out.

    “We’re… at the canyon.”

    “……”

    “It’s a real date.”

    “……Yes.”

    Jae-jin twisted his chest to squeeze out the sound.

    He had expected it, but the voice that came out was so heavy and overwhelming that it startled even him.

    “How is it?”

    “Wide… it is.”

    “And?”

    “Beautiful……”

    “Yes……”

    Wide, beautiful, and…

    Various expressions came to mind and overlapped. He could have uttered a more accurate impression if he tried, but he didn’t want to.

    “……”

    Kwon Jae-jin closed his eyes slowly, taking his time, and imagined the scenery filled with fresh wildflowers.

    When spring passes and early summer arrives, when the mountains and fields are covered with lush greenery.

    And what would it be like to stand in this spot again on a day when the sun blazed and cicadas chirped loudly, searching for mates.

    A great wish that he once couldn’t dare to dream of had now become a trivial wish that he could fulfill at any time, and he was purely happy. The color of this emotion was white, and someday it would become a warmly faded memory.

    The two stood there for a long time.

    Until the direction of the wind changed and the sun rose above the clouds.

    After a long time, Seo Eui-woo took out a small, lidded case. It was a ring box finished in leather.

    As they shared the shining rings one by one, placing them on their left ring fingers, it felt as if a certain lyrical melody was ringing in his mind. It was rich, harmonizing strings and winds in a duet.

    The rings fit perfectly, as if they had been painstakingly custom-made, and they were wonderful just by their existence.
