AND SCENE ((G)I-DLE MINNIE)

"Oh my God."

No other words could adequately describe what happened to you. It was everything but a blur, things that could easily form into lifelong traumas. Almost everything you went through over the past few days might as well be taken straight out of a movie.

So where do you start?

An encounter with the local mafia that results in your fingers almost getting cut off, rescuing a Thai princess whose father was in cahoots with said criminal organization-the reason why she's being held hostage as leverage-then escaping with her in a car and being pursued across the country by a helicopter and countless vehicles sent by the syndicate.

You should really be dead by now. Four times over.

Countless bruises, and wounds from bullets, blades, and everything that is designed to kill a man-any of these alone would be enough to permanently break any person, and you're no athlete or assassin; you're just a regular guy on what you thought was a promising vacation. It's a miracle that you're still breathing, more so standing, running on your feet towards the car you've taken refuge in, now on its roof and in flames.

Forget about the millions you've also stolen from the mafia; you're thankful to be alive.

Unfortunately, your miraculous plot armor doesn't seem to have passed on to the princess. At a glance, she appears to have only minor cuts and bruises like yours, but she's laying on the tarmac, completely unconscious and unresponsive.

"Princess! Princess!" You shout, turn her face up and slap her cheek, checking for any signs of life. Blood trickles down her dirty face from her forehead, her lips, and her nose. You lean against her chest and press a thumb on her wrist, desperately seeking for a pulse.

Not a single response, not a single sign. She's as good as dead.

Though you barely knew the woman, in the quiet moments when you weren't dreading your surroundings, you grew feelings for her. Her beauty was befitting of her royal title, and despite her nobility, she never really thought much of it other than a personal burden. She only wanted to live a normal life, and you sympathized with her plight, even though you were merely a tourist passing through, unfamiliar with her customs and culture.

She didn't deserve to die because of other people's stupidity and recklessness, including yours.

You couldn't bear to leave her alone. The survivor's guilt hurts you more than anything that could have physically killed you. Sure, her family might not hold you responsible for their daughter's death, but considering you ran off with her and traveled the entire country to find a safe haven, you might as well be an accomplice in their eyes. If not them, the media will.

You wanted to be by her side for as long as you could, praying for a miracle, but your instincts tell you to keep moving, to keep fighting.

You haven't eaten anything for two days, and there's nothing nearby that remotely resembles human civilization for miles. The sun has begun setting down, and soon enough, you'll be prey to ferocious animals and the ruthless cold night. Despite this, you still have no intention to leave her. You're just hoping the rescue promised by the national defense reaches you before it's too late.

Just then, before you get up, you feel a tug on your arm. You turn and find the princess' hand clinging to yours. She's extremely weak, barely able to open her eyes, but she's alive. Her little smile is more than enough of a reassurance that everything is going to be fine.

As much as you want to scream with joy, you're far too overwhelmed with emotion, and all you can do is cry. Leaning close to her, you plant a gentle kiss on her chin and put her in a tight embrace.

"You're-you're-"

"Yeah," she says, very faintly. She tries to widen her smile, but can't. She doesn't have to; she's already done more than enough. "I'll be okay."

Right then and there, you give her a kiss you've been holding on for so long, all the pent-up feelings poured into your lips. A smooch so powerful, it can restore her life. A true love's kiss, you could say. With the little strength she has, the princess gives in, reciprocating your love in kind, parting her lips. Both of you feel each other's warmth with the setting sun shining down on you.

It couldn't have been a more hopeful ending.

-----

"And cut!" A man's rough voice echoes from the distance. That man isn't really there, but he's actually there, deliberating the action, fabricating everything up.

See, there was never any rescue, there was no criminal organization, and there was no damsel in distress. You were never really in danger all along.

You're not really on vacation. You've been tirelessly working, in fact, in the confines of a film studio disguised as your 'vacation.' The princess you've been falling for is merely a co-worker, a colleague. It's nothing but superficial chemistry to add some authenticity to an otherwise absurd but generic action movie plot.

You draw your lips away from the kiss, unknowingly keeping up the act with a light smile and blush on the 'princess.' She mirrors your sentiment, flashes a light grin back. Whether or not there's some realism between you is up to the viewer, but at the very least the camera makes you two look believable. You can't edit or animate chemistry like that.

"Great job everyone! That's a wrap!" says the director, pulling up from his seat to laud you and gesturing to the other staff to stand in front of the cameras. Today's the last day of filming for your next film, an action-comedy romance thriller with you as the lead. It's a lot to take in at first, knowing that this is your first principal part in a high budget film after a string of acclaimed indies and even generating some awards buzz along the way, but you knew you had to take the jump and get your name out there beyond a niche of Letterboxd and Twitter film geeks.

As for your co-star, Kim Minnie, she couldn't have had a more different career trajectory than yours. She was a child actress who's path to box office stardom couldn't be any straighter, but her momentum stagnated with a series of commercial and critically panned mid-budget romcoms. She needed a brand reinvention more than ever, and this was her first move in getting her star back on the rise.

As promising of a script as it looked, and even with a respectable director and crew handling, nothing is guaranteed for both of you. There's so many ways the final product can end up: a critical and commercial success, an absolute disaster, a middling picture that will be completely forgotten after opening weekend, a cult classic that will only blossom years-decades even-after the initial release; the list goes on and on.

At least the bag is guaranteed. The studio threw you millions to star in their blockbuster, even when you have no prior hit or prestigious award to your name. Either a sign of the studio seeing star potential or a big red flag, casting an unknown, and knowing who was supposed to be in their initial casting before you stepped in, it's safer to assume the latter. Either way, you're getting paid, and you always have the indie circuit to fall back on, should the worst come to pass.

After a set of group photographs for the behind-the-scenes reel, it's time for you to move past this project and onto the next one. You don't really think much of the experience, apart from the overall kindness of the staff and professionalism of your co-stars, some of which you'll likely work with again, and others you'll never see again after today. Of course, there's the press tour, but you'll cross that bridge when you get there.

-----

It isn't until the next hour that you're finally able to drop the act and become yourself again. Alone in your designated waiting room, having cleaned up your rather uncomfortable makeup and in your casual wear, you hear a knock on the door right as you're preparing to leave. Putting on your shirt, you walk up and open it to a staff member with a box in her hand.

"Miss Kim sent me to give this to you," says the assistant, holding out the wrapped gift in front of you, which you gladly accept.

"Thanks!" you say, enthused, smiling back at the crew member. "Tell her I sent my regards."

"Of course, she'd be delighted to hear that. See you!" She replies before quickly turning away as you close the door.

You immediately unwrap and peel off the box that Minnie gave you, presumably a farewell gift, knowing that this was your last day together. You heard rumors of her kindness toward the staff and fellow co-stars in the past, and this confirms her great reputation as a giver and substantiates practically every story and excerpt.

So you open the box and find a new expensive watch inside, completely untouched with a tiny note attached to it.

> To my knight in shining armor

> Love, Kim Minnie

You don't realize it, but as you finish reading the brief letter, you're smiling widely, giddy like a child growing feelings toward their school crush. Perhaps there is a little more authenticity in the role than you initially brought, and a little more relatability with your character, falling in love with a princess like her.

Reality then hits hard. You'll likely never see her again, as much as you want to do more films with her. She has a different preference in projects compared to yours, and your career trajectories couldn't be any more different. Of course, that can easily change over time, and one day she chooses to become an indie darling like you, the same way you built up your name in the first place, but that's as likely as a sequel to this picture getting greenlit.

Nevertheless, you were now motivated to see her one last time before leaving it all behind for good.

So you make your way to Minnie's personal dressing room to knock. The door doesn't open, neither does any sound echo from the inside. She probably left already, you assume, but the lights are still on in there after noticing the floor. You try again, yet the response remains the same: there isn't any. There's still staff roaming the halls doing cleanup, so you can't make your presence obvious by shouting her name.

After about five minutes, you contemplate leaving, but decide to wait a little more. Eventually, you notice that her door appears to be unlocked. She's still there; there's hope. Out of morbid curiosity, you decide to take a peek. Quiet as a mouse, you gently turn the knob without generating a sound, only to find something blinding.

When you peek your eyes inside, you find Minnie shuffling back and forth-naked. It takes every muscle and nerve in your body not to slam that door shut and make your presence known. Cheeks flushed with embarrassment, you close the door. Thankfully, the staff nearby seem to have completed their jobs or conveniently decided to clean elsewhere; you choose to believe in the latter.

Your better judgment tells you to walk away now, that you can still get some closure later on. There's still the press tour for you to meet her again, and you can always choose projects that also happen to include her. No need for you to get involved in an unnecessary scandal just because.

Despite that, you knew you wanted to see her again, just not like this. But after seeing a tiny glimpse, you had no intention to leave so soon. You wanted more.

So you quietly re-enter her room, your eyes peeking out to watch her dress, and it's the sexiest thing your eyes ever laid upon. She's no longer completely nude, having put on some panties since then, but you capture countless mental pictures of her sizable, shapely breasts before she puts on a lace bra. Her previously long blonde locks having turned raven, the former being a cover for her actual hair, flows down to her shoulders with a brush of her hand. Either way, she rocks both colors flawlessly. She radiates star power and charisma naturally on top of her charming, seductive face and well-toned body, and you wonder how her career would have turned out had she played more femme fatale characters.

Her body was perfectly designed for them. In fact, everything about her was made for them.

Even when she's doing nothing, pacing back and forth half-nude without a care in the world, she makes it look like the hottest thing ever. None of your previous co-stars made you feel this way, enamored and smitten with every little move like they're deliberate and purposeful. If her goal was to seduce you, she certainly perfected it.

You're so into her, indulging in the sight of Kim Minnie dressing up for you like your own private little show, that you're left unaware of your body's deeper intentions, pushing you a little further past that door, bargaining for more, until-

Thud!

With a sudden, echoed yelp, you throw yourself from the safety of heaven and into the fire.

You crash into her dressing room, your cry echoing across the studio. No harness or body double can break your fall or save you now.

"Hey!" Minnie's barely finished putting on her shirt when she rushes over to you, worried. "You okay?"

"Y-yeah. I'm good," you say, grunting as you pick yourself off the ground, brushing off the dust off your clothes.

"Are you sure?" She softly brushes your hair, tilting your chin up so that your eyes meet, hers accompanied with a concerned frown. "What happened?"

"I-I came over to, um-say thanks for the gift watch." you reply, nervous, uncertain of your chosen words. It's a miracle enough that you've found a reasonable excuse as to why you're even there to begin with.

"Ah yeah! Manager-nim sent me your regards, but it's much nicer to hear it coming from your own voice. It's been great filming with you."

"Of course," you say, grinning. "Same goes with you, too."

Minnie draws her hands away from your face. "Yeah, I hope we can find a way to share the screen together again."

"Me too." you reply, nodding in agreement, unable to avert your gaze from hers.

As soon as you stop talking, awkward silence fills the room almost instantaneously. Minnie's nervous smile remains constant, anticipating a follow up like there's another half to make it whole. She's right in that you do have a few more things to admit, but as the saying goes: some things are better left unsaid.

Considering how you fawned over her minutes ago, this seems like the best option moving forward. Keep it all business. You know how this industry works, how these moments go, how one small move leads to another, and the ending is usually not a good one, even if the consequences aren't immediate. In a line that takes promising careers and shreds them to nothing, you know better than to fall into the system. She likely knows, too.

"I'll-" you turn around, pausing to glance back at her. This isn't you, nervous and tense like it's your first day on the job. "-be on my way now."

She gives you a modest wave goodbye as you take a few steps forward, the door to your freedom inches away.

Then you stop.

You don't end up getting your freedom. You don't really want it. In fact, you toss it aside, a mere afterthought. Against your better judgment, you're going off script, and there's no external voice commanding you to stop, and you have no intention to. Impulse brought you to this point, and you were about to reap the full benefits. It's a high, not a low.

"Minnie." You turn around towards her with eyes full of lust, and her name dripping from your lips like your personal serotonin. She raises a curious eyebrow, puzzled.

"Hm? Something up? Why are you looking at me like that?"

She doesn't look fazed when you start walking back toward her. It's like she knows you have some unfinished business.

A soft peck on the lip. It isn't practice for a future kiss scene; the kiss only happened at the very end, and in some twisted way, the script wrote itself.

"I think you're really pretty." Quickly retreating, you make it so obvious how head over heels you are for her-flushed cheeks, childish grin, and stilted body language. All that's missing is some cheesy modern pop music or some overused slow 80s classic in the background.

"I-I-"

"Yeah." Your eyes are pleading, begging. "I kinda fell for you-no, I completely fell for you."

She covers her lips with her hands, utterly in disbelief. Her cheeks are burning just as bright as yours. "Oh my."

"Um, well you're beautiful, and really kind, and-" You had many things to say to Minnie, most of which previously echoed by others, and there's no substance behind them, apart from maybe the first point, and they're not what you really want to confess.

"Yeah, this isn't gonna work." She sees through the facade, but your awkwardness is genuine. Mostly. "It was cute though, I'll give you that."

"W-what do you mean?" Your eyes widen at the sudden twist.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, but I know that's not what you wanted to say." Her shy expressions are replaced by a confident, piercing smirk, her arms crossed close to her chest. "You think I'm hot, don't you?"

"Yeah, no-actually yeah, I think you're really hot," you say, waving the white flag almost immediately. It was so obvious from the jump. One of the few times your 'acting' failed you.

"And?" Minnie raises an eyebrow, confidently expecting an answer. Her presence is so striking, it swallows up whatever remaining confidence you had left. There's really nowhere to hide or run.

"Well, I hope you wouldn't be upset, but-" Gulp your throat. "I quietly peeked through the door as you dressed."

"Knew it." Minnie shakes her head, quietly giggling at points. "I knew something was up when the door was slightly opened."

"Yeah, but-I'm really sorry! I really wanted to say thanks first! I didn't mean to peek through the door on purpose."

"Yeah, because you accidentally peeked through my door? Sure, I believe you." she replies, mockingly.

"Okay, but I couldn't help it. You weren't answering." you say, tone deflated.

"You couldn't have waited a bit longer?" she lifts an eyebrow, gives you a wary glare. "Fucking pervert. You're no better than the rest of them."

"Five minutes is a long time." you quietly mumble, pulling out the last of your pathetic excuses, but she's clearly caught you red-handed.

"Yeah, fuck you. Only sorry cause you're caught." Her eyes sharpen and she shakes her head. "Fine. You should be happy I'm in quite a good mood today, so leave. I'll pretend this never happened, but I don't want to see your face ever again."

You're visibly distraught. You have no intention to walk, not when there's a lot at stake, and who knows what she's going to do afterward. Hell, even as early as tomorrow, your career may no longer exist.

"Minnie," You say, gently, eyes having gone from wanting to pleading. She turns to you with a fierce glare, as if the mention of her name desecrates her entire being. A stare so piercing you impulsively look the other way. "I'll make it up to you."

"Hm." She scans your face. Soft, helpless, vulnerable. "And how will you do that?"

You take a deep breath, swallow hard. "Anything. Please don't get me in trouble. No one else has to get involved."

She pouts, runs the offer meticulously through her head, having all the leverage in this proposal. The negotiations delay to make sure all her terms are agreed upon. Footstep clatters echo from outside the room, but not a soul is aware or even tries to interfere with your little affair.

"Okay, you say anything?" she asks, facing you, expression still cold.

You nod, still trembling.

"I only want one thing, then." Minnie approaches you, each step of her heel a death bell being rung. Her eyes gaze at you, demanding your attention belong to her and her alone-and there were plenty of different parts about her that grabbed them. "You said you think I'm hot, right? Good news, I felt the same way about you-that was, until you pulled that little stunt, pervert."

She says the last word like it's a curse on your clean record, a reminder that will cling to you till you're buried six feet under.

Keeping her eyes locked on yours, she walks around you until a sofa is conveniently right behind her. She then walks backwards, her hand motioning you to follow her, to which you reluctantly oblige. Inches away from the couch, she stops you right in your tracks, rubs her palms down your shirt, sizing you up.

"You're a good kisser, I'll give you that," she says, her modulated, assertive tone reduced to a faint whisper. "But I wanna know if you're good at love scenes too."

Despite your stature, you've never shot a sex scene. At best, it's you and your on-screen partner making out before the camera pans out of view, leaving the rest for the viewer's imagination. Now you have to do the real thing completely uncut.

There's a huge price to fame, after all.

Minnie lifts her white crop over her head, granting you a much closer view of her cleavage. She tosses it aside before facing you again. Arousing of a sight it looks, you're anxious. "Take your shirt off."

You follow, your sweater joining hers on the opposite end of the room to be forgotten. She scans you again, your bare, well-built chest completely exposed to her, now completely clean of fake scratches and wounds.

"Fuck, this is nice," she comments, palming your chest. This isn't the first time she's seen you shirtless, but it's in a completely different setting and context. "I wish we could have done this sooner. Oh well. Better now than never, I guess."

Minnie plants a soft peck on your bicep, then on another, until she's marked all your core points with her strawberry flavored lipstick. She nudges you a tiny bit closer to her, enough that you can feel your groin tense up against the hint of her heat.

"Yeah, that's it. You feel so hard for me. You want to fuck me so bad, don't you?" Minnie wraps her arms over your neck, explores your back and squeezes flesh to claim. Her seductive teasing reaffirms your true intentions, even though you're never going to openly admit them. At some point, you wonder as to what her definition of punishment means, but you brush the thought aside, especially when your blood rushes down from your head to your groin.

She sneakily grabs you by your balls, tightening behind obstructive layers of fabric. Your erection can't wait to spring free, lest you go home with conspicuously soiled pants. Grabbing a hold of your tent, her infectious lips continue to quietly shatter your eardrums. "I can already imagine this dick fucking my pussy so hard and so fast. Mmm, I bet you can actually make me cum."

Had it been any other scenario besides this one, you'd have fired back a quip or two. Instead, you remain silent, rendered powerless under her commanding spell, reduced to a weak groaning shell of yourself.

"Too bad that will have to wait," she suddenly blurts, pushing you away before retreating to the couch. Crossing her legs, she adds, "Let's do a little trial run. Pleasure me without using your cock, then we might get somewhere. Sounds good?"

You sigh. Whether out of frustration of being blue balled or because of her terms is up for anyone's interpretation. She lifts her eyebrows, looking at you intensely, smirking, reveling at your visible disappointment.

"The producers are just down the hall, so unless you want to take it to court," she comments, teasingly, instigating, sparking a fire in your gut. Footsteps echo, again proving her point. You don't doubt her for a second, but it stings whenever you hear that stark reminder of your little mistake. You just wanted to get on with the act and move past it immediately.

Her eyes maintain an intense grip on you-smoldering-as you approach her and take her by the waist, watching as you take hold of her jeans and slide them down, pushing her gray panties along as extra baggage. Gracefully, she opts to give you a little mercy by kicking off her flats. Even when she seemingly does nothing, her eyes judge, take note of your serious, rather businesslike demeanor of undressing her.

Her splayed pussy's right in your view, but your petty contempt for her makes it less inviting.

"What are you waiting for?" dares Minnie, pointing down at her entrance, eyebrows raised and tauntingly smirking.

You couldn't be any more eager to wipe that confident smile off her face.

Keeping the rule in mind, you hover atop her seat on the couch and drop an arm, burying your hand between her pink lips. Minnie winces as your fingers make first contact with her clit, drawing her heat. She appears visibly shaken, caught unawares by your touch, even when she expected it.

"O-oh, f-fuck-" she whines, shutting an eye, cheeks puffing as she tries to resist, to no avail. Her nails rake into your back, inviting you ever closer, slowly relinquishing control, a perfect time for you to claim as yours.

The wet and warm sensation scalds, burns on your fingertips. You anticipated her to be wet, but not this soaked. Her pussy drags your digits further down like quicksand-nigh inescapable. Each little slap and touch creates a clap, a few raindrops that signal forthcoming rain.

Propped only by your other arm resting on her shoulder, you indulge in her wetness, searching for her favorite spot, the gold mine. Her body trembles, slowly but certainly adjusting to your fingers, moans becoming thinner and airy, eyes gradually losing focus on you, absorbed in the pleasure rapidly building within her. Her hips slowly buck and fold, grind against your digits in an attempt to swallow them whole.

"F-feels so good, f-fuck-" she whines, entangling her arm with yours, almost disrupting the euphoric moment when she drags you onto the couch with her. It's a blessing in disguise, as you're able to kick off your shoes and increase the tempo inside her.

In that moment, she had forgotten her anger, only to be replaced by a renewed feeling of bliss.

Moaning against her temple, lips barely grazing her forehead, you whisper, "You're so fucking wet, and I haven't even put this dick in you yet."

"Fuck off." Minnie suddenly snaps, tone frantic, her body set alight by need and craving for more. Even with the little fight she displays, she's clearly on the losing end, delaying the inevitable. It's all the more clearer when her voice fades, strains with every passing word, and her plea betrays her. "P-please, keep going."

You slip a second finger, watch as her legs clamp down as her body squirms tighter and tighter beneath her touch. By the way her legs tremble and writhe violently, you swear they're melting into the couch. She grasps at straws to keep you controlled, to keep your tempo stable, to leave some breathing room, to no avail. Your digits continue to fuck her at an intense pace, to the point where the wet, squelching claps of her cunt echo along with her lewd moans.

"Yes. Need that." She squirms beneath you, her hands no longer craving you, but on a different goal; she brings them around her back, unhooks her bra for you to toss them aside on her behalf. Afterward, she grabs you by the wrist and leads you directly to her breast, a generous reward for your efforts.

When you hold her, it's like rescuing a damsel in distress, saving her from her most wanton of desires by fueling yours. Every little touch, slap, and pinch of her naked body loosens her psyche and drives her wild.. From the most strained cry to the loudest scream, Minnie makes it clear just how amazing you feel to her, and her voice makes the sultriest sounds your ears are blessed to hear.

You can't help but put such thought into words.

"God, you have such a sexy voice when you moan," you whisper, and it's what appears to break her.

Minnie lets out an ear-shattering shrill, her body convulsing as the pressure of your fingers finally pushes past a point beyond repair. Her legs lock tighter on your hand, as if they couldn't be any more imprisoned, but they eventually loosen up and pave the way for her unannounced orgasm.

She gushes. Like a broken faucet, she doesn't stop leaking, passionately crying through her vivid climax. It's a mixture of slick and water that leaves your fingers incapable of leaving her, so you entertain the notion, dragging your digits in and out of her still gushing folds, seeming to make a mark on her cunt. Brushing in and out for a bit, until you settle around the exterior of her clit, you continue to fondle and caress her in your twisted form of aftercare. Even so, her orgasm continues to wash over her and your fingers, spilling onto the mattress you fuck her on.

"Oh God, I can't stop cumming, oh God-" she whines, gasping for air, mouth agape, her hand grabbing her other breast; her orgasm is gradually dying from a shower to a drizzle.

"Mmm." You brush your sticky fingers on her belly, playfully nodding in agreement. "Sounds about right."

Minnie takes a moment to gather herself before she pushes your hand aside-quicker than you hoped. By the way she orgasmed and screamed, you'd think she'd already be down for the count. "I wasn't ready, you pervert."

"I was only following the rules," you respond, lifting your shoulders in a shrug, barely holding on to your confident demeanor, only showing the faintest sign of a smirk.

"Sure, whatever." Minnie shoots you a stern leer, but it doesn't faze you in the slightest-not when you know that she's no better than anyone else. "Now fuck me with that cock and cum fast so we can get this over with."

You get the pleasantries out quickly, as she wanted. Hopping off the couch, you undo your belt and pants, get your already hard cock free from its denim constraints. She eyes your shaft intently, looking unsatisfied, but you know it's a facade, a poor acting effort compared to her usual abilities.

"Sure you want me to cum fast?" you tease, jokingly pointing out her fixated gaze on your cock. "Seems like you want me to give it to you nice and slow."

"N-no. I was just surprised at how big it is," she retorts, appearing even more scornful than moments before. She looks up at you, visibly annoyed, before looking down at your raging cock once more, another sign of betrayal.

"Please. Drop the act, Minnie." Tilt her up from the chin, gently pushing her back down on the cushion. Surprisingly, there's no pushback, no reluctance; she allows you to get atop her on the couch. Her eyes look into yours, then scan your chest with want, with need. "Let me fuck you the way you really want. I want it too."

A flirty smirk forms on her contorted lips. She pulls you to her level by your shoulders, softly nibbling on your earlobe. With a hypnotic whisper, she says, "Fuck me."

You return the favor, smiling lightly at the open invitation given to you-knowing that her body knows her wants more than she does. Without wasting any more time on needless pleasantries, you slip yourself in, introducing your cock to her welcoming heat. No matter how much you prepared for this, it takes every fiber of your resolve to not crumble immediately in that moment, uttering a sharp hiss as you close the gap between your length and her womb.

Your unison forms a harmonious groan and curse that fills the room louder than anything before. The powerful wave of pleasure surging through you overrides your senses, leaves you unable to move, keeps your eyes shut, unable to look at the handiwork beneath you. You grip a hand around her breast, elicit another moan from Minnie's sultry lips, seek a sign you're doing it right.

"So fucking tight," you rasp, slowly fighting her tight, wet cunt from sucking you all in. Her creamy legs narrow the gap, leaving you even more breathless. Still, you manage, by some miracle, to pull yourself out before you plunge right in again.

Words can't tell how good Minnie feels with you inside her; sexy, erotic mewls that tickle your eardrums are the only proper expression.

Your hands intertwine and find themselves in the only comfortable place they can be in, with each other. Finding nothing but paradise in her heat, you rest your head on the groove of her neck, still overwhelmed to look at her ecstasy-filled face. As you mark down her skin, leave marks that no amount of makeup can hide, you settle into a steady rhythm fucking her. With each thrust her walls clench around your cock, turn it to a canvas of her pleasure with her juices.

The world quiets down for just the two of you, except for the crescendo of moans that leave both your lips and the wet flaps of skin against skin, and that's all you want to hear right now. There's no pressure from the outside, no call from a producer or staff telling you to get ready, just the hot action happening between you.

Minnie's thighs continue to clench around your hips, put more pressure around you to burn. In retaliation, you put her deeper into the couch, melt her flesh into the leather as you comfortably fuck her at your pace-not too fast, but not too slow. She returns your lovemaking in kind, rolls her hips, and meets you halfway with each thrust. One hand rests on her taut breast, the other on her hips, but hers are connected with yours; either way, you have the actress exactly right where you want her to be.

"You fuck me so well," she whines, tone low, lifting her neck up, kicking her thighs, urging more out of you. "Harder. Harder."

Lifting your figure up, your cock sinks further into her suffocating walls, plunging as deep as you can into her drenched pussy. The deeper you go, the higher your moans reach. Her hot body leaves you so weak, so breathless, that it forces Minnie's legs to spur your hips on, to keep fucking her just like this.

"Minnie." Her name is a plea to make the sensation stop or at least slow down, as incredible as she feels around you. Ultimately, it does nothing, and you press on, as if only her body can satiate you.

It's then that her eyes flutter open, lips still melted and open, still moaning as you pound her. Her chest heaves with each deep breath, while her palms find their way around your chest. She tries to pull you down again, but to no avail. Ultimately, her body goes rigid, trembles violently beneath you as her second orgasm overcomes her and leaves her completely open to the throes of pleasure.

"I came again," she whispers, her light figure quaking from her fresh climax. Even with jittery muscles, her hand traces up to your shoulder, till it reaches up your cheek, forcing you to meet her. "Please, cum in me already."

Her legs loosen around your hips, as if telling you otherwise, but the feeling is so good-so wet, so warm, and so tight-that it would be a disservice to everything you've done so far not to unload in her. She has her eyes observing you, softly caressing your shoulders in a desperate plea, as if you have any other intention other than to do what she wants you to. It's fucked-how her glazed eyes keep you still, all while your body continues to work overtime. She melts, she contorts, she anticipates you coming undone for her.

Even with her frame rocking and clenching beneath you, her breasts bouncing with each sharp stroke, it's her eyes, her expectant gaze, keeping you at bay. Her lips shift around, her orgasm beyond her at this point, softly whispering one final plea. "I want-all of you-inside me. Don't ever-think of-pulling out. I'm all yours-baby!"

You suppress a breathy gasp, grit your teeth, your muscles and nerves all over the place. A little more before you ultimately surrender. A handful of strokes is all it takes before you go numb, burying your cock deep into her cunt. Hot, hot thoughts fill your head, mostly asphyxiating sensations choking your entire body as you pour shot after shot of thick cum inside her greedy cunt.

"So-warm," mumbles Minnie, ignoring the longest syllabled fuck from your side as your body gradually descends, all your strength completely sapped in one fell swoop.

You eventually find solace on her bare figure, your cock still throbbing inside Minnie's pussy, but your motions slow to a halt, until the only sign of life coming from you is the wave of deep breaths you gather on her collarbones. She joins you in rest, letting her nails take refuge on your back, tracing and marking your skin as you did to hers.

The two of you remain entangled, relishing each other's sweat, cum-filled bodies on the couch, bathed in the afterglow of sex. Both of you would happily sleep another day on set if it meant you were in each other's arms. Of course, that's not the reality; you don't know when you'll see each other again after this.

Surprisingly, Minnie is the first to break the tense silence. Brushing your hair, she mumbles, "You okay?"

A question that you should be asking her, not the other way around.

You lift your head from her body and nod, create little ripples on her flesh. "Yeah. I should be asking you that."

She flashes a gentle grin, the trademark smile you've missed, and will miss. "I'm good. More than that, actually."

A few more minutes pass, with your eyes lovingly staring into each other, unwilling to let the moment die. "You could have just asked, you know."

"Hm?" You lift an eyebrow.

"You could have asked, and we would still end up like this. Fucking pervert."

"Ugh-you'll never stop referring to me as that, are you?" you groan, dropping your face on her neck while she throws her head back and chuckles.

"Nope. Pervert."

(A/N: This one's dedicated to @svndaysaweek, I saw his answer to a particular ask and thought it was very appealing of an idea to write. Again, apologies for the sudden month long drought, was feeling extremely unmotivated and still am XD Thank you for reading!)

ANYWHERE BUT HOME (RED VELVET SEULGI)

"So can you tell me why you decided to stop by here, out of all places?" you ask, intently gazing at your uninvited guest.

The thing is, you're also an uninvited guest.

You're inside a hotel room, not your home.

The woman leans back on her chair, smiling radiantly, mirroring that same deep stare back. She takes a moment to ponder through her answer, let her eyes linger on you a little longer.

"I missed you."

"Do your members even know of your wheareabouts?" you say, worried. She should be anywhere else but here.

She strongly shakes her head, waves it off as a non-concern. "No, but you shouldn't worry about them at all."

"So they-"

"They're too busy having fun by themselves." Kang Seulgi has this dour expression on her lips, as if you're asking beyond what you're supposed to. "Again, you shouldn't worry about any of them."

"I'm surprised they haven't caught on about our secret-yet."

Seulgi chuckles, running through fond memories in her head. "I keep my promises, remember? And you haven't."

It's not easy to defend your case to Seulgi, even if the reasons are justified. Back then, you were both young and reckless, and based on how she acts and sounds now, she still is. Of course you still remember the promise you made, much clearer now that she's suddenly back in your life again than when you first spoke about them years ago. Life really finds a way to make sure you hold up your end of the bargain, pursuing you even as far as the ends of the earth.

"You know very well I couldn't stay longer than a year," you say, sitting on a dinner chair across from her.

"Then why did you promise me that you would come back then?"

She rolls her eyes.

"Look-" you pause and catch a breath. Note the sudden lump suddenly stuck in your throat-a byproduct from years of pent-up feelings from a lack of closure. "Life happened. Shit happens. I didn't willingly forget, I just didn't get any opportunity to see you again."

"Sure, sure. Willingly forget, right." Seulgi scoffs at your answer, as if you weren't going through difficult circumstances like she had, as if you had no battles to fight. "I bet you were doing better once you left me to go home, like they always do."

"Did you not hear anything I just said?" you reply, raising your voice. "I told you life happened!"

"Okay, let's remove the part where none of us could fly for a year, maybe two. How about the rest?" Seulgi retaliates with another question, and it leaves you in utter disbelief at how stubborn she is. Perhaps that's the one thing that brings you two together: just how headstrong you both are. "Did you even try to reach out at all?"

Your eyes immediately stray away from hers, much to her audible disdain. No words required to imply anything else.

"Okay, I guess I did forget about you," you say, and it's a half-truth, primarily because you want to avoid any more of this unnecessary drama resurfacing, especially when you're on vacation out of all times. A nice five-star hotel in Los Angeles, a place you don't have eager thoughts to travel to, apart from the occasional leave and maybe the multiple team playoff games in the spring. "What do you think happened when I tried to get another visa?"

"Should have asked me for help. I could have vouched for you," she replies, as if that's going to improve your chances whatsoever. It doesn't help in the slightest now. "But what's the point in talking about that now? I'm here now, so we can catch up on what we missed out on."

You let your annoyance be known in the form of an indignant sigh. After a brief pause, you quietly retort, "You should have led with that to begin with."

"Well sorry I'm not the same girl I was four years ago," she says, tone miffed. "I mean, just look at yourself."

You fall back on the chair, covering your mouth, preventing more damage. Point heard and taken. Your appalled reaction elicits a quiet giggle out of her.

"So unserious. You've always been like that," she adds, clenching her hand into a fist, observing as you crumble and fall apart before her. "We're both stuck in the past, but at least I grew; became a better person out of it. And you?"

"Seul," you say, hoping that maybe, just maybe, she stops this personally charged attack on your character, but she doesn't stop; she lets her mouth run every thought, every unspoken word built up from four years of waiting. It's almost comical how she talks about you, like she has an audience listening to her, you included, and you can imagine all the laughs and jeers as she talks. She knows how to charm anyone with the right words and a dash of charisma added in between. Most of it, both insults and playful jokes alike, obscured behind those cute eyes and puffy cheeks that capture your attention whenever she smiles, having lost her anger somewhere in that impromptu rant.

And it ends like it always has. A show of affection, a little kiss, then you're both back in each other's arms, as if the passage of time was a mere afterthought. It's the oldest trick in the book that you know.

And it works as it always has. To a fault.

-----

"Gotta say, I hate it when you do that. It's like cheating and I really fucking hate it," says Seulgi, between impassioned kisses, tasting each other's lips like water in a desert. "That's the one thing I don't miss about you."

"Yet you're still kissing me," you reply, pecking her lips rapidly, like you have a point to prove. You caress her bare shoulders, while your fingers play with the spaghetti straps holding her shirt together. She mirrors you with your own shirt, tugging at its fabric, itching to undress you as much as you.

Kang Seulgi can complain all she wants, but she falls for it every single time.

"Shut up." Seulgi rests her warm palms against your cheeks. With a tight press, you're puffed up, blushed as bright as the sun.

You make out with each other hungrily, urgently reaching for the bedroom, where you end up pushing her onto the mattress. It's only then you remember just how hot Seulgi looks when she's at her simplest: in a pink camisole and really short jean shorts. She really had this all planned out, knowing she'd be traveling the States all summer long, and California isn't the most inviting place to wear her typical clothes.

Or maybe she learned a thing or two from Joy about wearing skimpier clothing in public.

"You're staring," she comments, snapping you out of your lust-filled daze. Seeing this, she spreads her toned, slender legs apart, as if inviting you inside them-an offer you absolutely won't refuse. "I don't have all night to wait, baby."

"Hm, how long are you here then?" you ask as you undress right in front of her.

She doesn't give an immediate answer; her eyes linger on the growing tent on your bulge, before she scans up to your face as you hover above her on the bed. "Gonna have to be more specific. We'll be here for a month before heading home."

"Here. Los Angeles, I mean," you quickly comment as you lift her slinky arms over her head and kiss down from her temple to her neck.

"Mmm-" Enraptured by your soft lips, her words crumble into nothing but a whine against your ear. "Five days. Practice tomorrow and on Thursday, then two shows the days after."

"And do you have any free time in between schedules?" You whisper against her neck, slowly lifting her shirt over her head, leaving only a simple pink bra to cover her. You sneak a finger between her shorts, dig between the fabric to brush her folds, wincing at a newly wet sensation.

"Oh." Seulgi says, voice deep and breathy, shuddering as you press into her slick. Her thoughts go haywire, your long-forgotten touch so fresh and foreign to her, even though you've had her in this position countless times.

"Between practices maybe?"

"God." Seulgi sucks in a gasp of air, chews on her lip, and says what you're both thinking: "I need you to fuck me so fucking bad."

"Answer the question first, Seul," you tease, stroking her sensitive clit with your digit, then placing a second one to overwhelm her. "I really want to know so we don't waste whatever time we have left."

Much to her chagrin, the moans and quivers she releases do just that. It's not primarily her fault when you're the one instigating. Still, she can't help but become helpless beneath you.

"Mm-mm-please-just-fuck-" she cries out, tilting her chin as her words are reduced to nothing but helpless mewls and moans. It's almost cruel to watch, but you're enjoying every moment of this, relishing the sight of a pleasure-laden Seulgi squirming as you finger her. Part of it might have something to do with the brief argument you had earlier, but as she said, you never really became a better person out of your brief little fling.

And perhaps for your sex life, it was all the more better for it.

She really had no time to waste, hectic schedule and all, but you had all the power and freedom to pin her down like this as long as you wanted. You hated Southern California as much as the day job that allowed you to vacation here in the first place, but you'd happily request a transfer here if it meant you could fuck Seulgi like this as often as you could. You certainly know that this isn't the reality, but at least for one night, and God willing, the next few days, it is.

"Answer the question, Seul," you repeat in her ear, every word laced with venom, as your fingers increase in pace stroking her slick cunt. Even with the obstructive layers of fabric around her groin, it only serves as a minor distraction as you pump your digits inside her, never letting up even in rapidly growing heat. As for Seulgi, it only makes her needier, whine louder and her figure squirm more violently, keeping your fingers in a harsh lock. Unable to keep herself together, her fingers squirm at air, then at the sheets as her climax quickly approaches.

"Mm-oh-oh-gonna cum oh my-"

It takes only a few more pumps before she lets up, giving in to her first of hopefully many orgasms tonight. Slack jawed, neck exposed, she utters a deep, echoed moan as her juices coat your buried fingers between her folds, staining her underwear and shorts in the process. You keep your digits tucked in her heat, slowing your pace to a stop as she rides down her climax, heaving and gasping for air.

"Didn't expect you to cum so fast, Seul," you say, withdrawing your newly drenched fingers from between her legs before putting them in your mouth, tasting her delicious slick. "You still taste so good after so long."

While she recovers from her orgasm, you pick away at the remainder of her clothes. Shorts and underwear go flying off your hand, and her nakedness reveals the true aftermath: an endless flow of juices dripping from her cunt down to the sheets. As you undress her, you notice the sticky puddle built up on her panties too.

It isn't your problem.

You hover up to a limp Seulgi, who's still reeling from her orgasm. An ear to ear grin forms on your lips as you repeat the process. Kiss down her neck, to her collarbones, until you lay your face against her cleavage, playfully teasing her breasts with a hint of tongue, if not for the bra you've purposefully left in place. She's too weak to resist or respond, having turned into a shell of herself, an outlet to satisfy your personal desires. Hungry for more, you sneak those same fingers back into her folds, forcing weak, shrilly whines out of her mouth.

"Mm-baby, we don't have enough time-" she blurts, desperate, before drowning in her own moans as you slowly finger her again. You know she's wrong, you know you have all the time in the world, and you certainly won't rush, not when tomorrow is uncertain.

You struggle to unclasp the hook on her bra, having buried your face deep into her skin. It's only after Seulgi regains a little control of herself that she assists you, intertwining your hand with hers before you work together to finally undo the obstructive piece of clothing. She slips the straps off her shoulders, tossing them aside before you dive head first into her now bare chest again, kissing and fondling her breasts.

With every deep kiss, she reciprocates with a whine, and every mewl dripping from her lips comes out a note higher than the last. She clings to your shoulders while you make out with her, like you're the only reason why she would want to be here. You feel the same way, too. Her eyes flutter open and close like window curtains, mouth pouting and puckering with hunger yet to be fully satisfied, as curved and cute as that smile is.

She eventually stops you dead, cups a warm palm on your cheek, redirecting your eyes and meeting hers.

"I didn't come to make love tonight," she says, panting between words. "I came here to get fucked. Hard."

The way she articulates such filthy thoughts leaves you breathless. Sure, she's said it countless times when you were still together, but you've never seen her sound this passionate, this desperate, this needy, that it's almost uncanny. Up until this point, you thought she was here to reignite a flame, but it seems as though time has burned those fond memories away.

Suddenly, you find yourself lying flat on the bed. It happened so fast; you were caught unawares and in awe of Seulgi's newfound strength. She flipped you over then proceeded to straddle herself on your lap, resting her lanky arms on your bare chest. There's nowhere to look except for those glazed eyes, staring you down hungrily. Even as she slowly slips off your underwear and your cock springs free, tapping the edges of her folds, your gazes remain locked toward each other.

And God, Seulgi's figure is so fucking perfect.

You wonder just how much better her body could look when it was already flawless. The way she used every curve, every muscle, and every subtle movement to hypnotize you couldn't be any more convincing. Now you wanted to fuck her as hard as she wanted, maybe rougher, and give her a good reason to stay a little longer.

She catches you staring doe-eyed, smiles with an audible giggle. "God, is this the first time you've seen me naked like this? Be real. This is nothing new to you."

It sounds insulting, and it probably is, but even her voice sounds sexier now to your ears, and that overlooks the intentioned insult.

"Oh, I get it. None of these girls fucked you as well as I did, huh?" she continues, leaning her face-and the rest of that fucking body, its immaculate figure-ever close to you, pinning you deeper into the mattress. Her lips inches away from yours; you want to kiss them again so bad. "Gonna make sure you won't ever consider anyone else except me."

Right before you make a move, she asserts herself over you, drawing back her figure, lifting herself before slowly descending on your raging erection. It's a difficult, agonizing watch, like watching a car crash in slow motion, only this is something you want to happen immediately. You want her tightness to suffocate and consume you. You want to fill her up with every bit of load you missed out on.

As you take a deep breath, preparing yourself for the inevitable, you gasp. Your tip brushes between her folds heavily, sucks every bit of air out of your lungs. If she buries herself down to your hilt, you might as well die. A much better fate than slowly being grinded down to the dirt for the bare minimum by work.

Seulgi's eyes slam shut, and through gritted teeth she whines, feeling your cock for the first time in years-might as well be forever. The hands that were glued to your chest make their way to your shoulders, pressing on them tightly, as if the idea of letting go would kill her. Slowly but surely, she penetrates herself, inch by inch, until her whole cunt is consumed whole by your cock, burning your loins with her heat.

You both release a harmonious moan as you let the wondrous feeling settle-the feeling of being one again. She draws a hand back to brush off a wave of dark hair covering her face, then she gingerly leans down to kiss you passionately. Even after all these years, she's still incredibly tight, incredibly hot, that it brings you back to the first time you took her.

It wouldn't surprise you if you ended up like this for the rest of the night. The best case scenario, just the two of you tangled up in bed. Of course, her body has other things in mind.

"You have no idea how much I missed this," says Seulgi, breathing heavily as she continuously brushes those annoying strands of hair covering her beautiful face. "You have no idea how many dildos and people I've fucked because of you."

Your eyes widen. Forget the dildos, that's a long-running secret between you two. People?

You immediately echo your thoughts into words. "People?"

"When we got here the other day, I was so desperate. I tried so hard. Club after club. Then I saw you roaming around the poolside and I just knew I had to have you." Her hips begin to move, to buckle around your cock. After a prolonged whine, she adds, "God, I don't know if I can leave you after I make you cum in me again. I just-"

The motion around her hips accelerates, and Seulgi loses herself in growing pleasure, letting her body do the rest of the talking. The way she lifts and sinks herself down, using your cock to stretch her out clears out every question or thought you have. She feels so fucking good, and you're more than satisfied watching her make you hers.

Hands on her waist, you watch as she relishes in you, groaning as she rides you in rhythmic motions, bouncing up and down your cock. You don't even have to do anything; your hips move on their own, thrusting up and meeting her halfway.

"God, you feel so fucking good, so fucking big." Seulgi slowly leans her body back as she fucks herself on you, enabling you to ogle your now wet cock disappear and reappear between her slick folds.

With each plunge, you find your collective moans join the wet flaps of your flesh slapping flesh, and it leaves you even more breathless. Swallow your throat. You don't know how much more you can take. The erotic sight and sound is quickly becoming too much to bear. You want the moment to last a little longer.

Not that it'd ever, ever be up for you to decide.

At least Seulgi is gracious enough to recognize this. She continues to impale herself on you, experiment with angles on your cock between thrusts to maximize her already surging pleasure. She isn't fast nor slow, but perfectly paced to make sure both of you feel good. One hand remains firmly planted on your chest, again, while the other pinches her breast to keep you on your toes. A sight that drives you crazy, now you're the one breaking rhythm with your now wild strokes.

"I'm gonna lose it, Seul, I swear-" you mutter, aroused by her teasing. She giggles. It's as she intended.

"Yeah, maybe that's the point-" she says in a singsong tone, "Maybe I want you to fuck me like this. Maybe I want you to use me like a fleshlight. Maybe I want you to fuck me like a whore."

At this point, the only feasible thing that could happen is the first one. You're giving her hard, deep strokes, aroused by the sight over you. Seulgi has you completely under her spell. It doesn't help that you're so close, hanging on by a thread, using every bit of your willpower not to burst right before she says so, even though nothing is at stake here.

"I'm so close, Seul," you say between gasps, caught in the heat of the moment, and it might have been the worst thing you could have possibly said. "I am so close."

You swear her ears perk up as you spit those words out, as if they were the extra fuel she needed to recharge her. A hand runs across and down your neck, pinches a nerve or two, strains a few breaths in the process. She rides you vigorously, slamming herself against you like she has some kind of resentment against your cock, but it's out of lust, not hate. At this point, you're both crashing your bodies into each other, racing to see who gets to cum first, to find out who wants each other more.

"Yes, please cum, I want you to cum-" Seulgi rests both hands bare on your chest, angles her face where your lips can function as a safe cushion for hers when it happens. She smells of everything sweat, sex, and alcohol, her hot breath tainted with the shot or two before making her way to your room. "Please fucking cum for me-"

The remainder of her words gets lost at the tip of her tongue as she fucks herself on you, losing herself in the ecstasy of sex for the final time, every nerve and muscle in her body quivering as her heat suffocates you beyond any point of escape.

Seulgi goes limp, rigid at a point where your cock pokes directly at her womb, and she orgasms. Her mouth slowly dips, producing a whiny, elongated moan while a fresh torrent of her slick creams your shaft and leaves you completely breathless. You grip your hands on your svelte waist, still thrusting through the fading embers of her climax, preparing yourself to follow shortly after hers dies down.

She regains a little composure, and then she proceeds to pull the plug on you.

Seulgi lifts her hips up, right at the moment you expected to reciprocate your cum to fill hers as she did to you, and pulls herself from the depths of your cock as you orgasm. It feels like a knife was stabbed, twisted, then pulled from your gut, and the sight is almost unbearable to watch. Your aching cock gushes. Bursts of your seed geyser around your shaft, violently throbbing as you cry out in agony, agitated and deprived from what you really want.

Her eyes glaze down, as if she's seeing blood on her hands. After the joy comes the immediate regret. She's trembling, and you don't know whether it's from the aftershock of her orgasm, or from guilt.

"Oh my god. Fuck. I-I'm so sorry-"

"Why the fuck would you do that?" You shout, rolling your eyes as far as the back of your skull and gasping as your orgasm meets an unfortunate end, your cock gradually shrinking as it throbs until nothing spews from your tip.

"I-I didn't know what came into me," she says, tone remorseful, as she gently scoots next to you. She's on all fours, unwilling to rest beside your tired, splayed out figure-unwilling to bring you more misery and pain than what you're experiencing now. "I guess I just wanted a little payback for ghosting me like that."

The freezing glare you give her is half-annoyed, half-furious. You had little to no strength to do anything about it, unfortunately, and this is the best you can do.

"Well what can I do about it, jerk," you blurt, turning your glance the other way, wishing you'd never let her in-both inside this room and back into your life.

The bed lightly quakes, and you feel the warmth of an arm outstretched over your figure. "You can take my ass instead. There's lube in my bag, go get it if you want."

You refuse to budge an inch, leave her dry for a few minutes, completely unresponsive toward her. She tries to draw you back in, cuddling and kissing your ear softly, playing with your hair, nuzzling her face against your cheek. As much as you want to push her away, you can't-both from a lack of strength and a lack of willingness to turn her away again, at least completely.

Seulgi redirects your face to the ceiling and the corners of her face. Caressing your shoulder, she whispers, "I really didn't mean to. My emotions got the best of me. I never wanted to hurt you like this. Please."

You briefly glance in her direction, catch her eyes twinkling, nearly at the point of tears. You still don't entertain her.

"C'mon. I will let you punish me. Use me. Let me make it up for you."

Still, you don't bother. Seeing how none of efforts have been working, she slowly hops off the couch and limps out of the room. You're annoyed that she didn't close the door on the way out, and a little more after she returns and rejoins you after a moment with a bottle in her hand.

Smiling, she presents the bottle directly in your gaze, confirming it is, in fact, lube. "See? You can fuck my ass. Isn't this what you always wanted to do with me? Let me warm it up for you."

You utter an involuntary gasp when Seulgi straddles herself atop you again, her toned, slender legs spread out wide, giving you full view to her cunt and her ass. She strews liquid from the bottle into her hand and coats her holes with the lube, giving you an alluring stare, grinning ear to ear, as if it'll convince you.

As soon as she finishes glazing her tight holes with lube, you lift yourself from the bed, cupping her face and meeting her lips for a passionate kiss.

"You better not."

"I wouldn't think of it."

Seulgi can't keep her mouth off you, your chin, your jaw, affection overflowing until she sees your glow underneath the bright lights. Now, she's flat on the bed as you keep passionately making out, her hand snaking down to your cock and stroking it back to full mast, eliciting a string of moans from your mouth into hers. Pumping your length and finding it hard, she breaks off the kiss and pushes you away.

Turning her body face down, Seulgi clambers atop the bed on all fours, arching her slim back and sticking her wet, curved ass directly in front of you. She's clearly mastered the art of using her flexible body to seduce and hypnotize. She's practiced the motion that it's routine, like it's a regular music show performance to her.

It's moments like this when you wish there was a mirror available.

"Whenever you're ready." Seulgi looks over her shoulder, brushes off stray locks of hair aside, giving you that 'fuck me' stare that overpowers you every time. She says she's down whenever you are, but you know she has anything but time available.

Still, you were going to indulge in her and make the most of fucking her ass until the sun rises.

You grab a handful of her flesh, stroke your cock with the other hand. Brushing your tip against the entrance of her folds, it's enough to make her fold, make her crumble. Low whimpers exhale from her mouth, impatiently waiting for you to enter her, to ruin her tighter hole.

"Mm, God, please, put in me already-" she whines, her head spinning-both literally and figuratively. "I don't know how long I can take it without you inside me." "I thought you said whenever I was ready?" you jest, poking fun at what she said moments ago. Hearing the neediness in her voice compels you to tease her. Just your cock against her wet folds has her cries reaching higher. Up, down, and her tone pitches.

"Stop that! Just because I said what I said doesn't mean I want it as much as you do."

"I wasn't complaining this much when you forcefully rode me," you reply, spanking her ass with a quick palm, forcing a yelp from her. The more she goads, the brighter her cheeks smolder.

"Please just put it in already, oh my God." Seulgi turns to you, gritting her teeth, so desperate for her cock to be filled. Another slap, another cry of pain and pleasure.

"Keep complaining. I like it when you complain like that."

"Mm, fuck!" With every word she tries to utter from her lips, your hand meets her flesh with a powerful smack, disrupting her train of thought. You could write poems, lyrics, sonnets, with the syllables she's stuttering out, until even the slightest of noise is enough to warrant another slap of her ripe ass. Soon enough, her cheeks are burning the brightest of red.

And you still haven't put your dick anywhere inside her.

"Enough teasing! Fuck me already-mmmph!"

You take her by surprise, nudging your cock against the tightness of her smaller hole, and making her moan the loudest she's ever moaned so far tonight. Her body tries to resist, to push you off before you can fully sink yourself deep in her ass, but the wetness of her entrance is enough to help you nudge yourself inside. Seulgi's groan drags out as long as the time it takes for you to penetrate her backside, slowly but surely burying yourself to the hilt.

When you finally reach the depths of her ass, you groan in agony as you drown in the sensation of her tight walls stretching against your cock. Hands firmly gripped on her ass, you swear you can feel your shaft breaking in half as you struggle to move inside her, but after a moment to acclimate yourself, the torturous feeling of her tightness mellows out, and the pleasure kicks in.

"Oh God, Seulgi. This ass feels so fucking good, oh my God," you rasp, leaning forward to whisper and grunt in her ear. "You're so fucking wet and tight, you're going to break me."

She angles her head, unable to face you, but her side profile says everything you need to know. Her body trembles wildly as her very foundations crumble with your presence inside her, yet she's still able to maintain some semblance of composure to say something back. "And that's what I want. I want to break you. I want you to ruin me, too. Use me. Fuck me."

As if you needed any more convincing, she wiggles her ass against your buried cock, making you squirm.

Drawing yourself back into position, she moans as you pull your cock away, the tightness of her ass making it difficult, and her wetness making it easy to plunge back in. It also helps that Seulgi herself leans back against yours whenever you take her, urging you to slide deeper and deeper inside her.

So with a steady rhythm, you fuck her, reveling in the sight of Seulgi's perfectly arched back and toned body rocking with yours. You had no intention to break her as she wanted, you wanted to let the feeling of her tighter hole linger longer than her pussy as compensation. The sensation of her asshole is so otherworldly, so different from fucking her cunt, that they're almost completely separate entities. It's neither better nor worse, it's in its own league.

But maintaining this level of poise proves to be almost difficult, if not impossible. She urges you on-with loud moans, with enticing jiggles of her ass as you fuck her, with occasional demands from her needy lips-compelling you to take her harder than what your limits are. She pushes all the buttons in your brain that it drives you crazy, and you can't help but give in, even when she's the one allowing you to take her like this.

It's sinful. Out of control. Your pace becomes disrupted, frenzied, and completely erratic. You've got both hands gripped to her waist, hammering away at her tight hole as lube and slick coat her outer layers, and the room is filled with the sounds of her lewd noises echoing all over the place backed up by the wet smacks of your flesh slamming against her skin. Forget that the whole establishment can hear you fuck, they have no idea who you're even entangled with. Seulgi can scream and cry all she wants; they can do nothing to make both of you stop.

"Yes, fucking ruin me, fucking use me, keep fucking me like this-"

Resting your head over her shoulder, inhaling the scent of sweat, sex, and alcohol from her, you rasp in her ear, "I'm so close to cumming again."

To make sure she doesn't try anything funny, you fuck her as hard as your body allows, force her deep onto the sheets. You lay flat on top of her, hammering her with hard, mind-numbing thrusts while you cling to her shoulders, grab a fistful of her dark locks, kiss and nibble her ear-find anything to distract you from the inevitable. She's screaming and mewling, forcing your attention to her, screaming about how she wants you to empty your seed inside of her, which you intend to do.

Either way, you don't have a lot of time left.

You rest your head beside her ear, peck her sensitive skin. You're fucking her ass so hard it's almost cruel. Each stroke twists that expanding knot further and further until it's beyond your control. "Gonna fucking cum again, Seul."

She nods, bites her lip, eager and ready to receive you. "Inside," she says once, and it only takes a handful more of pumps into her tight hole before you're hilted deep inside her. The sound from your throat is primal, borderline animalistic. Your bodies tremble violently as you fuck your cum with each withering thrust, making sure not a single drop goes to waste, until you find yourselves frozen in a state you wish would last forever.

When your orgasm finally dies down, so does the rest of your body. Going numb, you press yourself against her lithe figure, lock her in a tight embrace, finding solace beside her head. A calm, peaceful quiet follows, with your collective deep breaths the only stir for minutes, maybe hours.

"I guess we can call it even." Seulgi breaks the silence, turning her head to meet yours.

"Still didn't cum in your pussy though," is your immediate response, still unsatisfied, despite filling her ass with a hot load. "So no. We're not even."

"Relax. I'm here for five days. You know this place very well, right?" Seulgi pushes you off her and you settle on opposite ends of the bed, meeting each other's gazes, her eyes twinkling with a rekindled fire and renewed lust. "We've got plenty of opportunities to fuck till then."

Her cute face glows from the brightness of the sun beginning to rise over the city. That can only mean one thing: a new day has arrived.

"Or we can start right now."

"Even better."

(A/N: The irony of naming this fic Anywhere but home when the actual inspiration is one of Seulgi's other songs from the 28 Reasons album. Specifically, Los Angeles. It's also the best song on there as well. I've been itching to write a fic with those pics she took when she was on vacation, but realized most of them didn't really fit the city setting of the story XD Thank you for reading!)

BIAS WRECKED (LE SSERAFIM CHAEWON)

There are cameras everywhere, but they don't really care about you.

You're in front of a room filled with thousands in attendance, but most of them don't care about you. And the very few that are actually there for you-you certainly couldn't tell apart when they're all the way at the back.

The audience erupts in cheers, but they're not meant for you.

It's fine. Nothing new, really. You've learned to liken the noise to artificial, pre-recorded cheers, the ones you've been listening to for the last couple of years. Perhaps the day will come when these people will be screaming your name, but the chances are as low as you being on that stage to begin with.

The winners say their little thanks of appreciation to the fans, delivered with concise and flawless execution, as if it had already been decided beforehand. Knowing the other nominee's absence, it likely seems to be the case. Then again, this is already their 15th music show win after debuting a little over a year ago. On the other hand, your group debuted right at the same time they made their comeback. It would be considered reckless, downright stupid in the hands of a relatively larger company, but this is some fresh start-up with you and your members as their first experiment. You gain fans, and the sales are surprisingly decent for a new boy group from a completely unknown label, but otherwise, you're another name that has Nugu Promoter labeled all over it.

It's a volatile profession where only the rich get richer. You don't even know if you'll even make it past the end of the year. Any hopes of public attention, let alone a music show win is basically blind optimism at this point.

While your peers around you will continue with their promotions, this is your last one. Two weeks for a newly debuted group sounds sacrilegious, but money is a scarcity. Using recycled outfits for the last two shows should have been a dead giveaway, a glaring red flag, that you're in deep waters, but nobody cares.

Really, no one does. Ask anyone in that room and they'll probably think you never actually existed.

You're smiling, acting as if the dozens of cameras are pointed right at you, but in reality, you're just empty space.

You're just happy to be there.

So when the encore plays, everyone leaves the stage, and after you exchange courtesy bows with the seniors that go overlooked in favor of their more recognizable peers, the heavy weight of being an idol is removed. Your lips loosen up, your eyes rapidly blink; one by one, you're peeling off the mask, the persona that is required of any performer. All at once, a million things spring to mind. The members, the fans, the company, your future-it's all things you have to worry about. It's wise not to think about any of it, but you can't help but wonder if you were better off not chasing your dreams if you knew this was where you'd end up.

Still, it does have some rewards.

Even though the cameras catch you in the act, and it's broadcasted out for everyone to see, you've been peeking at the women beside you. That's one benefit of being a nobody; there's no public outrage or melodramatic outcry, and the few that notice play it off as some kind of inside joke. Anyone else in your position would facing the prospect of career suicide. It's still unbelievable that the same idols you've watched and inspired you to pursue that dream are at an arm's reach. Competitive releases be damned, you'd happily go unnoticed if it meant you'd end up next to some of the hottest idols right now.

Passing along a few hallways to your dressing room, you're reminded of another blessing: that you don't have to waste five minutes of your time doing superfluous Tiktok challenges. There's a pair of guys that barely know each other performing some point choreo they clearly googled on the spot, and you can evidently discern by their deadpan expressions that they don't want any part of it. Of course, it'd be hypocritical for you to say you're better-you've been forced into it-but it serves as a cue to hurry up before you get dragged along too.

Regrouping with your members at your dressing room, they're slumped back on the lone couch, completely drained of their energy. They've been in performance mode since dawn. Better for the group's overall health that there's nothing else after this, but worse for your overall popularity. You need to get out there more, but that's beyond what your company can provide.

"Great job everyone," says your leader, peppy as he's always been, but the members don't reciprocate his energy. It's deflating from every angle. His attitude mirrors yours: blindly optimistic about the group's potential success. However, you recognize the reality of the situation. You feel bad. "We all deserve a rest after that."

Sure enough, they're right ahead of him, proven by the loud snores that fill the room. Another demoralizing response. It's painful and awkward to watch. His efforts to uplift the team are completely genuine, only to be met with such lackluster reception. It's the story of the promotions so far: trying your damned hardest, performing as if your lives are on the line, only to come up short of what you've worked hard for and looking defeated when you head backstage.

This is the price of being sold a plastic dream. This isn't your first rodeo, either. You started from a relatively big company, put yourself out there when survival programs came knocking at your door, but it ultimately led to nothing. The label must have seen the writing on the wall when they dropped you after you were eliminated on the first evaluation. It's cold, it's callous, but it's ultimately business, nothing personal. You probably should have seen the signs too, but your stubbornness has you believing in miracles. Hey, it worked out for a few forgotten names before. Anything is possible.

Suddenly, a manager walks into the room, phone in hand. Right. There's a scheduled livestream for your fans in less than an hour. None of you get access to your phones until you reach 50,000 album sales, chart in the top 100, or win a music show-none of which seem likely to happen at this rate. He gives the phone to your leader and tells him to get everyone ready before promptly leaving again.

"Excuse me, I'll just go and clean up. I won't be long," you say gently to your senior, who simply waves you off and allows you to leave.

-----

The SBS building isn't a huge one, at least compared to the KBS building, but you might as well appreciate every moment you're lost inside it. You don't know when you'll ever step foot inside its corridors again, if ever.

So, when you happen to walk past a room you have no business being close to and cross paths with an idol, it must be fate. The dream isn't dead-for now.

"Hey!" Her little voice suddenly snaps you from your wandering mind.

You impulsively bow, completely taken by surprise. "Oh! I'm sorry-wait!"

After a brief exchange of formalities, she meets your eyes with a familiar smile. "Yes?"

You swear you've never felt your heart beat out of your chest this rapidly, yet the feeling is only starting to sink in. A reminder that you're still carrying those innocent dreams with you.

"Chaewon!" You shout her name out so loud it's practically demanding attention. Both your hands cover your mouth almost immediately. It's laughable how painfully obvious your excitement is upon being recognized-and who wouldn't be? She giggles and smiles widely back, and you forget you're also an idol like her-not some fanboy who only sees her occasionally behind a screen. A less successful, less recognizable one, but still an idol.

"Oh? You look kinda familiar." Chaewon raises an eyebrow, inches her warm face a bit closer. She scans you as if you've got something that ticks. And as if that wasn't enough of a validation, she adds, "I don't remember what group you're from, but you look cool."

"Um-well thank you, that means a lot." Whether she meant it or not, the way you helplessly stumble through your words says it all. Knowing her schedule, her success, and everything else in between, you're probably the least of her concern.

Her eyes suddenly sparkle; the pieces are starting to come together. "Of course! I remember now!" Her hands are folded together, her tone earnest and respectful, even though you're supposed to be a nobody. No wonder she's one of your biases and one of your inspirations in pursuing an idol career. Even though you've shared the stage a handful of times already, this feels like the peak of your existence, and it's all downhill from here. "We watched your performance while waiting. You were great!"

This is too much to digest. You're supposed to be back in your own dressing room by now, but here you are, consumed by your love and admiration for an idol being reciprocated back to you. You find yourself unable to move the conversation forward, let alone end it. Forget that her members are on the other side of that door, probably overhearing the conversation. They've got new new material to pile and make fun of, but fuck that. She doesn't seem to mind standing here all day either.

"Wanna record a challenge with me?" she asks, and you can't turn down this one in a million opportunity, no matter how much you despise the concept and everything it stands for. You're nodding, and the level of enthusiasm you show betrays your code so easily, it's borderline criminal. It's Kim Chaewon, after all; you'll break any rule just for her.

-----

Safe to say, there's levels in this industry, and you're practically placing an open target on yourself for everyone on the internet. That isn't to say you're not trying, it's just very obvious that Chaewon clearly outperforms you. It's the sort of gap that generates more questions than answers. You've already written down the inevitable comments from Twitter and Panchoa in your head: He went to the Jay Park school of performing! Free Chaewon from these nugus! Why is Chaewon dancing with a MAN? Among many, unsavory variations.

It's all in good fun, at least between you two. You miss a step, miss another, quickly fall behind to the song, and it's utter disrespect to the artist inviting you to perform with her. Nevertheless, she plays it off with a laugh, helping you through the motions until you end up with a serviceable final cut. It's not going to break the internet, and it certainly won't bring your group any attention, but it's watchable-at least, you believe it is.

(Except you can only last a second watching yourself struggling to keep up before you look away.)

"Looks great! Everyone's going to love this one," says Chaewon, looking at your twentieth recording smiling, beaming with optimism that you'll somehow get a share of attention for doing this when in reality, she's the only one getting clout. "Do you want to record your song next?"

You're well past your limit. You don't make exceptions for that. "I'm good! I think that's enough Tiktok for the day."

"Heh." Chaewon returns her phone to her pants' pocket, chuckling at your response. "I get it. Tiktok challenges are so exhausting."

"I can't imagine what it's like for you then."

"You have no idea."

Moments pass without a word. Dilly-dallying at some isolated corridor is fun when you're with someone you admire, but you both have schedules to fulfill. Her managers are probably fuming right now; even a five minute absence may have thrown off the rest of their day's agenda. Time is their biggest scarcity-a resource you wish they weren't lacking.

"I've kept you away longer than they want, probably," you say, weaving around the idea that you don't want to let her go just yet. "But it's been fun."

"Right." Her eyes look ahead with alarming focus. She sees nothing, but they're glinting as if she struck gold. "We have enough time to do one more thing."

Chaewon turns around to grab you by your cheeks. You're halfway to holding her arms when you suddenly stop. This is foreign. This feels-good. You like her warmth radiating all over your face. You're about to mouth your foremost thought into words. What are you doing? is etched all over your lips, but she's right ahead of you, answering that question with a resounding statement.

She kisses you, and it spirals out of control faster than your presumed career.

It's so abrupt, so out of character. Suppress it all you can, you find no other urge than to give to your baser instincts. You hum as she passionately pulls you close, wanting more territory to sink in. She bites your lower lip. It's mine now, says her narrow eyes that pierce through your soul, as if persuading you to give up. No. You've already raised the white flag.

Your hands explore and roam her back. Her outfit provides so much skin, yet leaves enough for your imagination to fill in the gaps. Hips, waist, and butt-you find your hands firmly groping at them more than any other part of her tight, lithe figure. She moans, she rasps against your neck, she finds solace in your arms, embracing the sudden sensations pulsing through her body. "Fuck-"

"We shouldn't be doing this. Not here," you whisper in her ear, your eyes circling the corridors for signs.

She kisses your side, pulls you closer to her, unwilling to let go. She'll hug you into submission if she needs to.

"This happens all the time around these parts," she replies, tone flattering. Unreasonable of an excuse it may be, the loud emptiness of the place provides sufficient evidence to support her. "Nobody gives a shit."

"But what about the-"

She interrupts you with a deep kiss on the lips. No amount of convincing will change her mind. It's settled. From there, your instincts do the rest.

At first, you find it difficult to pull yourself away from her kiss. Her lips taste sweet, heavenly, and everything you'd expect from a sweet-faced cutie like Chaewon. Her hand grips the back of your neck, keeps you still, keeps your gaze lingering on hers. A devilish smirk on her lips forms while she continues to crash into you, her eyes pleading you to stay perfectly still-like you have anywhere else to go after this.

"God, I didn't expect someone like you to be this-" Chaewon interrupts you with another direct kiss, as anticipated. You're still talking; she'll have to tape your lips with hers if she wants any progress, but maybe that's her goal. "-needy."

Her grin widens, barely suppressing a giggle, as if this is common knowledge. "Mmm. You'll love being an idol, then."

You raise an eyebrow, curious and confused. "Huh? What do you mean?"

She pushes you into her, bearing the brunt of your weight that you end up crashing forward against the wall. Your shared gasp and grunt is mild compared to the thunderous thump that reverberates throughout the hallway. If no one had a clue till now, now there's arrows pointed in your direction.

"You'll enjoy this job." Chaewon then pushes you away, leaving you even more hazy. Holding out her arms, she follows, "Now take my clothes off, will you?"

"Really? Here?" Your eyes dart left and right, cautious and tense. Forget about your nonexistent career; you're thinking about how it will affect hers.

"Relax. They don't care, like I said," she replies, calm and collected, like this is nothing new to her. She must be doing this often to the point where she has full confidence to pull these acts on the regular. You're gradually putting two and two together, but it doesn't change the fact that this is wrong. "It's all right. Let me ease you into it."

It's bewildering-sacrilegious outright-but you can't look away. She truly embodies their fearless concept. Pants and underwear slide down her legs smoothly before she kicks them aside. Your gaze lingers at the crumpled clothes on the floor, jaw slacked in utter disbelief. Kissing and dating is one thing, but to watch an idol openly undress is on a whole other plane of fictitious you previously thought never existed.

"C'mon. This top is yours," says Chaewon with a smile, guiding your hand toward one of the straps of her bra. It takes a little while to snap you from your daze, but when you finally look past the insanity of the moment, your inhibition slips. You'll let the moment lead you to its intended climax.

So it goes. Except for the cuff on her left arm, Chaewon stands completely naked before you, emboldened and amused by the shock and awe gripping your soul. For the most part, you've mostly come to terms with the madness of it all, but you're shaken up to your very foundations. Everything you know is completely tipped on its head.

Her words ring inside your head, loud and clear. You'll love being an idol. If this is what the idol life entails, then all that blood, sweat, and tears was completely worth it-even if only for this one moment.

-----

Chaewon's fingers run through your hair, having abandoned any semblance of subtlety by the loud mewls and whines that leave her lips, while you admire her slutty little figure. You don't intend to rush through the moment, not when there's so much creamy skin to feast on. Neck, collarbones, and breast-you slowly wander down her body, giving each part its rightfully due praise. She's smaller and shorter than you; you can easily sweep her off her feet and ruin her, but an idol like her deserves to be worshiped. She knows how much attention she draws and she fucking loves it.

"I never-" A kiss on her creamy skin. "Expected you-" and again. "To be so-" and another. "Fucking hot."

"Mmm. Not the first time I've heard it," whines Chaewon, moaning as you drool all over her toned belly. She grabs at the collar of your shirt, recognizes that you're near that tempting, forbidding zone. It does little to distract when her body demands attention at all times.

You finally reach her core, see how incomprehensibly wet her pussy is. Surely she's getting some between tiresome schedules, whether it's from her members or managers or other idols. Why she wants you of all people, you have no idea, but you'll certainly oblige.

"Mmm, fuck-mmm!" Chaewon's whine rises a pitch higher, nails digging into the fabric of your shirt as you dive into her splayed cunt without hesitation. Squeezing your hands into her thighs, you lap her folds up and down, up and down. Slick fills you, pools down your lips and chin, loosely spills onto the floor-as if the lewd screams reverberating throughout the floor aren't enough of a dead giveaway.

Looking up, you closely observe how she crumbles so quickly. It's a beautiful trainwreck to see. There's a hint of cuteness from the gleeful smile etched on her lips. Face completely flustered, body tingling with all-consuming bliss as you feast on her sensitive core. Between frantic whines, she gazes down while you eat her, meet halfway, and there's nothing but toned variants of profanities and wanton pleading dripping from her tongue.

"More. Fuck. So good. Don't stop."

She sighs, rests her shoulders down as she melts into you. Wrapping a leg around your neck, your tongue flattens against her pussy. It's soft, it's wet, it's everything you need. You drink her clean like she's water in a desert. Her raised thigh quivers, and the trembling arouses you, pushes you deeper into her sweet nectar for you to freely consume. Every motion on her tender clit drives Chaewon crazier by the second, making her scream wildly, losing herself in bodily ecstasy.

Her breath tenses and shortens. The notion of your tongue bringing her to ruin causes her to grind her hips against your face. She's making sure you take her body and make it yours. It's hot, it's heavy, it drives her torso against the wall, shaking the very foundations of the floor you're eating her out on.

"So-close," she barely manages to huff out, one eye looking at you consumed by lust and determined to eat her clean. Your response is maintaining the steady pace you lick and pleasure her cunt, and it sends her spiraling back out of control. She rolls her head back, almost hurting herself against the wall, and she trembles, and shakes and-

"Shit!"

The world around you fades. You drown under a violent gush of slick and wet juices. The overwhelming flow of her heat spills all over the floor. Chaewon violently quakes as you relish in her tight, suffocating warmth. She's overcome by her orgasm, completely flushed in a haze, gripping the back of your skull with her sharp nails, holding on for dear life.

"Jesus," she mutters between deep breaths. "That mouth of yours-"

"Mmm." One more lick of her cunt before you regretfully leave. It sends an aftershock that sends chills all over her body. Kissing up to her toned belly as her hanging leg gracefully lands on the ground, you follow, "I never expected idol pussy to taste this good."

Drained, she sighs and lowers her head, taking a moment to collect herself. "I can't imagine what that cock is like."

Silently chuckling, you lift yourself off the ground and begin to fiddle with your zipper. "Why don't you find out?"

Almost immediately, Chaewon's strength returns to her and you both change positions. She falls to her knees as quick as gravity slides down your pants. Wrapping both hands around your boxers, your raging erection springs free when she rips the intrusive fabric off you. Free from the discomfort of having to hold yourself back, you plant a hand on her frazzled hair.

"Suck my cock, Chaewon."

"That was always the plan."

The confident smile on your face after she says it drops for a groan when she grabs you by your base. Her fingers slowly but firmly wrap around your cock like a snake, casting you in a dizzying spell. It leaves you lightheaded, has you holding her hair tightly like she did yours, and forces you against the wall for support.

Your moan overpowers the initial hum she makes when she slips your cock inside her mouth. No teasing, no pretense. She takes you in right away, her patience completely tossed aside from your agonizing build up. It's a brutal, crushing feeling. Her lips are anything but gentle when she takes you deep in her mouth, in addition to the grip of her palm on your full balls.

"Jesus! Too much!" You cup Chaewon's face, finding yourself unable to face her, enraptured by a simultaneous shot of pain and pleasure-much to her delight. Being a senior, you'd assume she'd be gentle and gracious enough to have some control. "Take it easy, Chaewon."

She releases your cock from her mouth with an audible pop, your tip pooling with her spit down to your hilt. "First time I've ever heard that from an idol. Everyone likes it rough."

"Yes, but-"

"Tell me when I'm being rough and I'll ease up, got it?"

Chaewon smiles, and it's the strongest sign of reassurance that keeps you from falling, even if the world ends tomorrow. Quite the juxtaposition when she reinserts your cock inside her mouth, attitude gleeful, like it's an honor to have such a thing between her pretty lips. There's no complaint-and why would you even consider the thought; you have one of the most talented and popular idols sucking your cock-even when your tip scratches her throat, sending repeated pulses of shock and pain that immediately part for suffocating pleasure.

"Oh, oh my God-fuck-" Her hair's turned into a makeshift handlebar by how much you're gripping onto them for dear life. Closing your eyes, you let ecstasy wash over you, allow that rapid growing knot in your stomach drive you wild. It's excruciating, but so intoxicating. You want to say something in protest, like she promised, but you recognize the possibility of missing out on feeling this fucking good again. "Y-you're incredible, Chaewon."

She hums with amusement watching you fall apart. It's the story of your life so far: an unexpected build up that ends with a predictable outcome. You wouldn't be surprised if this moment follows every other script. That's how fate works. Luck can only take you so far.

So it shocks absolutely no one when you push your luck again, trying to alter destiny. "Keep going, Chae. You feel so fucking good."

Her suction grips you, leaves you weak in the knees. Both your hands desperately cling to her hair; you're threatening to rip her locks when you drag your fingers off. What should mostly be Chaewon's work is now shared by your hips, lightly thrusting and pumping your cock deep into her needy mouth. It doesn't faze her in the slightest; in fact, she more than welcomes your effort. She twists her lips into a discernible smirk, watching you fall for her like everyone else.

It's teasing, it's mean, it's borderline cruel. Her fingers coil around your shaft again. It's clear who's piloting the ship; after all, she's your senior, so it's not like you have any other choice but to yield. You get the shivers, unsure of whether it's from the constant sensations jolting your entire body or from the serious gaze she flashes you. She makes it vivid; she's fucking her mouth on your cock, not the other way around. Observing your rigid response, her eyes linger, watching every little muscle shake and tremble, as if expecting some kind of result.

And she almost gets it.

Sweltering, smothering heat envelops you. Out of control into a freefall. Words are unnecessary to express how close you are, barely hanging on by the thinnest of threads. Even when you try to mouth I'm cumming, it only comes out as air. Unable to keep your eyes off Chaewon, the earnest cocksucker she is, you close them, clearing your thoughts. But that proves to be impossible when she makes it so wet, so melodic, and so filthy-an all-out assault on your senses, poking through the last of your defenses.

Fuck.

You finally slip. In the throes of your orgasm, your mind doesn't register the groan you utter that may as well be heard by the entire building. Chaewon's name drips from your lips, falling in between a sea of inundated moans. Its delivery is very clear, but it rings through your ears as nothing but a mere afterthought. She giggles and chuckles as you cum for her, swallowing up almost everything down her throat.

Your eyes reopen to a wondrous sight. Chaewon's face is mostly coated with your hot, thick, sticky sheen. Her slick tongue laps away at her chin, at her cheeks, while spreading your cum between her fingers. Hair beyond fixing, she brushes it off, but it proves to be annoying-doesn't matter in the end. She catches you staring, recognizes the filthy position she's in, and plays into the act. Hand gripped on your cock, she licks you clean while it throbs and withers away.

"Goodness, Chaewon." You comment matter-of-factly, resting a hand on her shoulder, bending your knees out of exhaustion. "You're unquenchable."

She gives your cock one final kiss before propping herself back to her feet. "It's a stressful job, but I love it. Especially when it's a cock like yours," she giggles, "It makes my day worth it."

Grinning at her response, you've never felt any more validated. As you recover from your orgasm, there's a sense of uncertainty lurking over your shadow. A sudden realization hits you. "Oh God-"

Chaewon seemingly reads your mind, laughing at your newfound struggle. "Mhm. This pussy could have used your cock inside it. I wished we had more time. Too bad."

It now dawns on you that you won't ever get the opportunity. You were so fixated on her excellent blowjob that the thought never came up-it did, but it's too little too late. The only response you have is one simple but emphatic and drawn out ugh.

"Be a good junior and grab my clothes, will you?" says Chaewon, grinning radiantly. Bitter as you are, you can't turn down her request. Grumbling through gritted teeth, you hastily grab the neglected heap on the floor and hand her outfit back. You don't make eye contact with her through it all, lest the sourness of the moment grow.

"Thanks." She kisses you on the cheek while you struggle to smile through your pain. "Until next time."

Her departure doesn't process in your mind for a little bit. The thought doesn't occur to you that she left you as is, walking around the building completely naked. Knowing her, she likely does this on the regular, or that everyone is numb to it by now.

Slowly but surely, you put yourself back together. The phone you've quietly smuggled within your pants rings, but you leave the caller hanging. When you finally muster up the strength to dig through your pocket, a stream of notifications flood your screen. 42 texts-37 from your manager, including six missed calls and five from an unknown number.

Forget that you missed the scheduled livestream by around 20 minutes. By the time you return to your dressing room, the place is already cleared out. You don't bother calling your manager or any of your members. Management probably terminated your contract already on some bullshit grounds. It's fine; you don't believe you'll make it past your debut, let alone the rest of the year.

Instead, you read through the anonymous number, and the messages leave you feeling giddy again.

> I knew why you looked so familiar! Yunjin told me all about you. You both attended the same school in America! How cute!

> Here's the address to the HYBE building. Tell no one, obviously. Don't keep us waiting :P

> kisses,

> k.cw. <3

(A/N: Holy shit a pi fic that didn't take more than two weeks to make! A summer's day miracle! Jokes aside, this was primarily-BFH fueled schlock cause Chaewon looked good in that one Eve, Psyche, and the Bluebeard's Wife stage. I definitely contemplated using Yunjin as the lead-and still am, definitely gonna add her eventually-cause she stole the show in that MV with her thick body in those fishnets. Holy fuck. I need pics of those. Anyway, this is merely the calm before the storm for the next fic. I don't usually hype up the follow-up like this, but yeah, it's gonna be a big one. Thank you for reading!)

KNOCKIN ON HEAVEN'S DOOR (LEE CHAEYEON)

> ​​5 minutes in heaven with chaeyeon (just something inspired by the knock mv and her being inside a wardrobe) - @idevian

------

"God dammit."

The worst thing about college wasn't the outrageous student debt, nor the mountains of units and classes you needed to juggle. It was the parties.

It was always the parties.

Not a couple of weeks passes by without some wild party hosted by some rich nepo kid. There isn't really a reason that justifies the occasion except to celebrate for celebration's sake. An excuse to let loose and relax from the stresses of the semester; a reasonable justification-if not for the copious amount of drugs, alcohol, and sex that happens in them. Every scene plays out like a parody, an ironic twist of fate that realizes your worst assumptions and stereotypes of college after graduating high school.

And the worst part is: no one escapes completely unscathed, not even you.

You make one thing clear: you don't despise parties-you just didn't want any piece of it. It stands to reason then that you usually take refuge in the many corners of the house, away from the madness and debauchery of it all. Exposure to their degeneracy proves to be near-unavoidable. You're essentially the designated driver for your friends, who are none the wiser. Often, they're the first ones in, last ones out. The moment they step foot inside, they basically forget your existence until dawn. They're insufferable, but you'd otherwise remain a loner without them, for better and for worse.

In a sea of people, someone manages to spot you. It's not the gaze of a burgeoning romance or friendship; their eyes evidently spell out drunkenness, and their zombie-like motions toward you are about as subtle as a sledgehammer to the face. A little push and pull. You suddenly find yourself being escorted to a huge circle that raises immediate red flags. Even the slightest whiff of the room laced with crack triggers your fight or flight impulses. Thankfully, it only takes the simplest and most cliche of excuses to create a path of escape.

"I need to use the bathroom."

With their impaired judgment, you'll soon be an afterthought to them-or at worse, a horde of makeshift zombies banging at the door. The bathroom would be too obvious. It was never the destination.

Sneaking around the crowd, you find a door conveniently tucked away from the madness and rush toward your freedom. On the other side lies complete darkness, and if not for a foot teetering on the edge of some hidden stairs, you'd be a dozen steps away from a concussion and several stitches. A hidden basement sealed away from the house, blocking most of the noise.

Finally, some peace and quiet.

As expected, the actual basement is nothing but clutters of dusty boxes and forgotten relics, with a few tiny windows hidden behind the piles. Little light peeks through the otherwise pitch black room, but a bit more exposure runs the risk of your retreat getting exposed. You'd more than happily sit here until you can weasel your way out in the morning, when everyone's blacked out and completely fucked from party overdose, or when the rich kid's angry parents find you sleeping on the floor.

You've taken overnight shelter in far worse, unforgiving places.

Suddenly, you feel a breath of warm air tickle through your ear and skin. "Guess I'm not the only one stuck tonight."

It's a ghoulish whisper that impulsively causes you to drop your phone while opening its flashlight. What little the light reveals is a hint of pale flesh and blonde strands covertly moving like a predator stalking its prey. You feel something on your shoulder, sending shivers down your spine. Clawlike nails thread through your hair, slowly entrapping you beyond escape. Your eyes tilt to the side, only to find the groove of lush dark lips forming a pretty smirk.

All it takes is another whisper. "Boo."

"Shit!" You flail your arms panickedly, swinging them around like a child with no fighting experience. You hit nothing but air. If not for the darkness concealing you, it would be a humiliating sight, the kind that gets posted and clowned upon on social media.

The figure grabs you by the wrists, stares so sternly it warrants attention. Its tone is just as sharp, too. "Don't get us caught, goddammit."

You pause, take a moment to gather yourself, then another to scan the shadowy stature, looking at you now with wary and concern. Peering through the darkness, its eyes glint with a distinct sparkle. It speaks again with a more tempered voice. "You okay now?"

A silence briefly falls. You stare back to familiarize and scan the figure. A moment of clarity comes upon you. "Wait-aren't you-"

You recognize her face plastered on the accomplishment board, primarily under athletics and sports. It simply couldn't be anyone else but Lee Chaeyeon, a polarizing figure within the student body. You've heard whispers from varying accounts. For some, she's practically the greatest athlete to ever grace the institution, a generational talent in every department she excels in. To her teachers, she barely shows up to classes because of her athletic commitments, and a peek through the records shows she's barely holding on in her academic obligations.

At times, she's felt like a myth, mainly because you'd only hear her from others. You never saw her once in a school uniform. Hell, you only knew she was around because other people claimed to have seen her, but they could have been spreading misinformation.

"What? Chaeryeong?" She raises an eyebrow, puckers her lips, partially confused and mildly annoyed, while lowering your arms before finally letting them go. She knows what you said. "That's my little sis. She's a lot cuter than I am. You need to get your eyes checked."

"No, no." Blissfully unaware, you're quick to emphasize your point. "You're Chaeyeon, head of the dance club and athletics division."

"No? I'm Chaeryeong, head of the music department," she says, sarcastic, but now with a playful smile. "No shit, I'm Chaeyeon."

"I-I never expected to meet you here of all places," you say, awkwardly smiling and tapping your fingers together nervously.

"I didn't expect anyone would find this spot." Chaeyeon turns around, brushing her long blonde locks in an alluring way that leaves you awestruck. Admittedly, it's a little bit attractive how unabashedly sleazy she looks. Even in her clean pictures, you can tell she hates the idea of looking clean. While everyone else attends these parties at their best, only to come out a complete mess, she clearly recognizes the pointlessness in such vanity. "Great timing, too. I was gonna make a run for it."

"So, why are you here again?"

"Boredom." Her reply is almost immediate, flippantly delivered, that it's convincing. She has better things to do than hang around at random parties. "I just came for the free food." She chuckles remembering the thought, while her eyes wander around the room, searching for something, anything.

"Just like me, huh," you respond with blind confidence, as if it'll give you both a common ground to share, when in reality, she doesn't care. If anything, she only amuses you because she allowed you to entertain her, and you're doing about as good of a job as anyone when it comes to catching her attention-a.k.a failing spectacularly.

Chaeyeon turns around and faces you again with a curious, intimidating look. "And what do you know about that?"

Gulp. "About what?"

She tilts her head and doesn't utter another word, as if expecting you to know what she means. You clearly don't. On her lips is a dour pout, disappointed by your impulsive tongue. None of it makes any sense, and trying to figure her out seems like a fool's errand.

"Thought so," is the only thing she ends up saying, and an air of awkward silence falls on you both as she roams around the basement, presumably searching for a passage out. "You wanna be useful?" she suddenly snaps at you, her stare peering through a valley of boxes.

"What do you want me to do?"

"You wanna get out of here or what?" she spits, turning to you, gaze grimacing and tone scathing. Joining her, you both take note of a narrow hatch hidden behind even more dusty packages.

-----

Well, you may have just played the most awkward game of seven minutes in heaven in your life.

The ride home is even more unsettling.

Chaeyeon remains dead silent, comfortably slumped back against the passenger seat of your car, keeping you at arm's length. Occasionally glancing to your side, you're driving, focused on the road ahead. The muted sound of radio blaring through the speakers is the only thing that keeps awkward silence from permeating throughout the vehicle.

You can't get her to show any form of emotion other than apathy.

Wanna have something to eat? Nothing.

Where's your place? Also nothing.

Where would you like me to drop you off? Still nothing.

Got any friends to meet up with? Again, nothing.

Most people would have given up by now. It's not a good look, the kind that encourages ostracizing. Patient as you are, though, you still hope she opens up, but whenever your eyes meet, she gives you the coldest shoulder imaginable. She wants nothing to do with you. The way she stares, the tiredness peeking through her brown irises, the slow, detached gaze that examines you before lightly looking away-the very idea of interacting with people poisons her, ruins her, breaks her.

You pull off at a gas station a few blocks away from your apartment. Shutting down the engine, you gently say, "I'm gonna buy a snack. You want anything?"

She slowly turns back in your direction, very disconnected from you she can't be bothered to look you in the eye. Her lips twist, as if ready to speak her mind, but only air ultimately comes out. As you expected by now.

"Fine," you follow, deflecting her cold demeanor back at her. "Just wait here, then."

After stepping out of your car, right as you're about to enter the shop, you hear a sharp thud sound. Looking back, you find Chaeyeon, also outside, rubbing her arms from the cold air bothering her, trembling nervously.

You call out to her, loud enough to draw anyone's attention.

"Borrow my jacket?"

She doesn't pay you any heed.

-----

"I seriously don't understand you," you murmur, as if it'll bring her out of her shell or change anything, if your previous attempts at reaching out to her in a friendly manner are any proof. It's late at night; you're both casually staring at your car-the only noteworthy thing in this gas station-and you couldn't be any more different. You've almost emptied your little cup of instant noodles, while she smokes through her dwindling cigarette, blowing smoke in your direction, still purposefully uncaring. The vapor doesn't make you crack, but her coldness does. "Why did you ask me to drive for you? What's the point? I don't know what you want."

It's probably not the best time to show even the slightest frustration. Then again, she's been deliberately dispassionate the entire time. Anyone else would have given up at this point, but there's an allure to her, you admit, that keeps you interested, and not just because she's a known name within the student body. Popularity was never the goal, but like everyone else, you simply wanted to know who Lee Chaeyeon is. She's one of the biggest mysteries within the school; an all-star athlete with a peculiar aura surrounding her. From what you've seen so far, it's not all that remarkable. She's sassy and apathetic, dry, sarcastic humor is her primary weapon, and she dresses like an escort. Perhaps this is all just a mix up, that this isn't really the Chaeyeon, one of the best athletes to ever grace the university.

If not for the resemblance with her younger sister, the sweet girl from the music club, they couldn't have been any more different. Are they really from the same family?

"Much better." She returns her cigar to her mouth, huffs another round, then releases a new wave, thankfully not in your direction this time. Facing you, she looks you right in the eye. It's different. There's no apathy behind them, but instead, genuine interest. "I just wanted a free ride outta there."

"That's it?" is your reply, confused. Maybe you're thinking these words through a bit too much, trying to find deeper complexity from a simple answer. You've met more complicated characters before, and to a certain degree, you can relate to her.

"Yeah." Chaeyeon drags another whiff, but intentionally smokes away. "People just suck."

In a strange, twisted way, she reads through your mind, says something that, quite frankly, leaves you even more in disarray. "Don't think hard about it."

Wide-eyed, you try averting your gaze in a poor attempt to feign ignorance. "Think about what?"

"You know," she says, songful, gives you a rather taunting stare, eyebrows raised, as if expecting you to understand what she's on about-deep down you know what that is-while flicking the ashes of her cig down on the table. Admittedly, it's somewhat cute. Smirking, she adds, "Do I have to make it obvious to you, bird brain?"

"Fuck off."

"There you go." Chaeyeon leans back, chuckles, takes delight in making you look like the bad guy, that wicked, mocking grin on her lips a few inches wider than before. Only now do you perceive the true predicament; both of you secretly playing mind games, examining each other, trying to get on the other's nerves until they eventually break. "I guess I win."

"Win? We're not playing games."

"I got you to drop the nice guy act. I won."

Another huff, another smoke.

"That doesn't mean much."

"That's what every loser says. Remember what I said? People suck."

"We just met a few hours ago, and you're telling me I suck?" Your volume grows slightly louder. "After giving you a free ride out of that party?"

"And who got you out of there first? Hmm?" Chaeyeon's driving you mad, but now for a completely different reason. "Let me make it clear: I knew about the secret passage even if you hadn't stumbled your way inside that basement. You were just lucky to find me at the right time."

"Forget about the basement!" You find yourself slowly unraveling, slowly coming undone, your screws on the brink of loosening. She licks her lips, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. "What the fuck is wrong with you?"

It's sudden, it's loud, it's sharp. The words reverberate around the shop resoundingly that in any other setting, it's what incites a public incident, gets both of you expelled and shamed in school. Maybe just you, knowing there's a high likelihood of preferential bias the faculty may have for one of their most accomplished pupils. Regardless, you find yourself covering your mouth, as if you've just spoken some unspeakable destruction into existence. Even she ends up speechless.

The next moment is even more destructive: Chaeyeon's lips suddenly cover yours.

-----

"Fuck, that's good," mutters Chaeyeon, between a shower of seemingly endless kisses on your lips, shoving you against the wall of the bathroom beside the convenience store. The doors are locked, with not a single soul's around to interrupt you. Either way, she proves to be too much-too much to fight, with both words and actions, that you quickly give in, much sooner than she expected.

It's not that you never considered the thought of kissing Chaeyeon-at times, they were a little tempting if not for the fact that she's a smoker-but rather how delectable her lips are, even with the tainted scent of smoke etched on them. She passionately makes out with you, drives her tongue between yours, drives the wedge that seemingly kept you both apart, and no amount of self-righteous character can bury that want, that craving for affection-and sex.

"You do this with every man you meet?" You forcefully rip yourself from the kiss, only to find your lips dragged back in almost immediately. She knows it's a futile effort to gain control, something you never had right from the start.

"Fuck no," she mouths between even more pecks. "Consider yourself incredibly lucky."

She's tugging on opposite ends of your shirt, threatening to rip them apart, something you recognize. Even as you continue to make out, with your hands exploring and marking new territory in the form of her divine figure, you make time for her, letting her freely own you by lifting the obstructive clothing over your head before she promptly tosses it aside in return. Her lips gradually slide down and make themselves familiar with you; your neck first, then your collarbones, smiling to herself as she marks each part as hers with her teeth, while creating more friction by palming your bare chest.

"Finally, someone who's actually hot," she quietly mouths to herself, though you can hear her loud and clear. You've got a response, a retaliation, but you choose to bask in the moment, acknowledge how good she already makes you feel in the form of a light groan.

Her hands slide down the steep hill that is your torso, until they find more difficult fabric. Locking eyes with yours, she works on your pants, keeping you suspended as she figures out how to claim her rightful prize. Behind those brown pupils is a burning lust, a raging flame consuming her from within, eager to take what she wants; it's not the same cold stare from before.

"How long have you wanted me?" she asks, followed by the gentle whir of your zipper as she slides down your pants and boxers in one swing. Before you can formulate a reply, you suddenly release an airy gasp-your only response-caught unaware by her deft, silky hand pressing on your balls and your raging cock. Her smirk widens, amused and absorbed by your electric reaction.

She continues to fiddle with your cock, giving it one slow, but delicate pump after another, as you fall under her dizzying spell. Forget about the question; the answer is quite clear, based on the stickiness slowly building up between her hand and your cock. Pleasure begins to spike all over your body, and almost single handedly ends you, if not for her other hand keeping you steady against the wall. It's a little too soon-a little too much for your brain to comprehend.

Her gaze lingers on yours, watching you gradually crumble in real-time; you're no better than anyone else in this situation. It's amusing, gets cute, sweet, playful looks that seemingly brighten her day after what seemed to be an absolute disaster. She knows what she's doing and she loves it. Your hands cling to shoulders, feel the softness of her skin, and it sparks a fire in her eyes, quick to spread and consume.

"Tell me how long you've wanted me," she repeats herself, the bright glint in her eyes and her grin more mischievous than serious. Determined to get the answer out of you, she tightly cups your balls, drawing out a deep groan. "I know you've been staring at me since we met."

She's not entirely wrong. Even in the darkness of that desolate basement, you knew she was drop-dead gorgeous. It became clear under the pale moonlight that she was even hotter: a black crop that teased the subtlest of cleavage, exposed her toned midriff, and jeans that accentuated her shapely ass. Yes, even when you thought she wasn't interested, she knew your stare never departed.

"Since always." Not the best answer; you both literally just encountered each other earlier that night, but it's the most logical. Not a single girl in college made you hot and heavy like this. Sure, some of them were cute, her sister included, but none of them had that appeal, that love at first sight attraction that Chaeyeon carried.

Her free arm reaches up to the zipper of her shirt, presses her cleavage together a little. There's amusement on her features watching in your eagerness to watch them slip. She contemplates the thought, painfully stalling the inevitable by a few precious seconds, then she unzips her top down. One side of the sleeve slides down her shoulders, then the other, until only a matching black bra remains.

It promptly joins the other clothes on the opposite end of the bathroom, completely irrelevant.

You and Chaeyeon make quick work of her jeans before you're quickly drawn together like magnets, feeling each other's hot, sweaty skin, entangled like a complete puzzle making out against the walls. It's an intense back and forth, a tug of war as you both desire complete ownership of the other's body. Each torrid kiss screams of desperation, not intimacy, to be used, to be consumed.

Spacious as the bathroom is, you can't seem to find common ground. One moment you've got her pinned against the furthest stall, the next she has you fastened in another, until you eventually acquaint yourselves with all three cubicles. Both of you know where this is going and where it should lead; you just don't know how you can get there. There's plenty of distractions in front of you, mainly Chaeyeon's perfect naked figure, a leg wrapped around your hip, and the gleam in her eyes wanting and yearning. It's dangerous; temptation lurks everywhere you look. If not for the arms wrapped around your neck, occasionally dictating that you only look at her lust-filled face between kisses, the rest of her body would earn your worship.

Chaeyeon moans, writhes in your grasp, slowly relinquishing control over to you. From her bottom lip, you slip them down to her neck, and she trembles, clings tighter, feeling weak. Her hands pinch the back of your hair, mouth mumbling airy, faint words. It's passionate, sinful, and tender-something you never expected with an otherwise rough woman like her.

"God, you're so hot-" you hiss, gasping as her touch arouses you. "Mmm-"

She suddenly regains composure, stops you a breath away from her chest, then pulls you back toward her face. Another deep kiss. "Enough. I'm not in the mood for love making tonight."

Regretfully, she removes herself from your clutch, pulling you by the hand instead to lead you to the bathroom sink. Every time she kisses you, her lips smell of alcohol and lipstick, and it never gets old. You wonder if she simply likes kissing or if she's conveying some kind of message that you somehow have to decipher. She notices the curious expression on your face, lets out this droll laugh that gives off the assumption you're onto something, when really, she's as unpredictable as ever.

There's nothing funny, nor is it supposed to be, but it makes no sense, perfectly in line with her character.

Before the awkwardness looms over you again, she grabs you by the waist, pushes you forward to impale her. Her back arches against the sink, perfectly spaced between her torso and legs. She spins around, flaunts her shapely curves that immediately capture your attention-and your hands. Ignore her steely glare that pierces through your reflection in the mirror; her flesh melts, molds comfortably in your grasp, as if they were tailor made for you.

She grunts, loses control again, but it's only momentarily. "Don't keep me waiting."

Even though you've seen her look vulnerable, her sharp attitude keeps you on edge, stops you from committing a sinful act. Your cock is in the perfect position to ruin her, break the facade and the space between you, but it's not a fight worth contending, especially when she follows up with a dagger that almost pierces your heart. "Keep it between my legs."

You immediately knew what she meant. To be quite honest, it's a little disappointing. All that preamble, pleasantry, the tease of something more, only to be shot down before it even starts-it's almost disheartening. Of course, you had no room to complain, not when she's splayed out in her barest, practically giving you free reign over every other part of her, but something feels-off, incomplete.

Chaeyeon spreads her legs wide, gracious to space your cock right in its center. Her cunt is on full display, ripe and ready to be used, to be fucked. Unfortunately, you won't get to have any piece of it without her word. It's near-impossible to look away, spellbinding you with an unforgettable mental image. The thought of-or the lack thereof-filling her pussy torments you. Even as her smooth, perfect thighs sandwich your cock, the notion poisons your mind, leaves you wandering and aimless, until the perfect amount of friction strikes and-

"Fuck."

It's smooth, suffocating, devastating. Now you truly have nothing to whine about, except to whine about how tight her legs feel around your cock, rubbing and stroking yourself between her thick thighs. Barely hanging on, you press your hands on her shoulders, losing yourself in the pleasure quickly. Thanks to the little flecks of precum from before, sliding between her heat proves to be much easier.

Slowly but surely, you grow accustomed to her asphyxiating warmth, unable to process anything beyond the slickness and powerful sensations around her flesh. Eyes closed, you moan in prolonged, deep spurts, resting your head beside hers. Her feelings don't matter at this moment, only yours. You don't realize her hand is gripped to your thigh, only that it amplifies the surge of pleasure coursing throughout your body. A possible reminder to keep your cock away from her cunt, but you didn't need it anymore-her thighs are more than enough.

"Yeah. Fucking enjoy it, horny bitch." Chaeyeon's tone and expression seemingly derives no enjoyment from watching you lose it, as if it's only an obligation and not something both of you share pleasure in. She moans, but it's faint and weak. "That feels good, right?"

"It does," you blurt, trapped in the heavenly bliss between her legs, loving every little motion. "So good, Chaen, holy fuck-"

She sees you visibly struggling and helplessly trying to gather air, smiles and laughs at your predicament. It's a mess; it's her schadenfreude. Delightful, she thinks to herself, now playing along with her lewd expressions plastered on the mirror. Unconvincing, if not a bit too much leaning towards parody. She's waiting for the opportunity to get the edge over you, the killing blow.

Tightening her grip around your cock, her toned legs collapse, and you can feel the fire in your loins gradually building and hurling toward a calamitous explosion. There's nothing you can do to stop-not that you ever want to, watching your cock slide in and out her thighs at a perfect rhythm is its own reward-only praying that the moment lingers a bit longer. You've got both hands pinched to her taut nipples, thankfully unresisted, kissing around her collarbone and ear, trying in vain to stifle the endless string of curses and moans leaving your lips.

It doesn't help that her voice is seductive, downright merciless, repeatedly goading you into submission, staring at your reflection expectantly. "That's it. Cum for me, bitch. You won't ever get this kind of opportunity with anyone else but with me. No one else will ever make you feel this good. Just cum, and cum, and cum-"

The word rings in your head, hypnotic, borderline leaning toward brainwashing. It isn't gaslighting when she has a point; she feels so fucking incredible, so tight and hot and suffocating-no one else can possibly compare. Then again, ecstasy is the only thing running through your head, clouding your better judgment. You've got a hand digging through her endless sea of blonde locks, pumping between her thighs, each thrust sorer than the last, like you'll regret the action in the morning.

"I'm so close, Chaen. I'm going to cum," you say desperately.

There's that familiar twinkle in her eyes, and a mischievous grin forming on her lips. Troubling. "Say it."

"Say what?" you say, your cock aching painfully between her wet, toned thighs.

"Please."

"Please!" you shout, teetering dangerously close to the edge, threatens you and Chaeyeon. Again, slowing down proves to be impossible. You're so far gone.

"Please what?"

"Please let me cum! Please let me cum, Chaen, oh God."

"That's it. Cum-"

As soon as she lets that word out, the lights immediately turn green. Releasing all your inhibitions, your eyes widen, pumping your cock hurling to that oh-so deserved orgasm between her legs. Her thighs receive every last shot, every single drop. You both moan into each other's ear, with Chaeyeon finding comfort and satisfaction from feeling the warmth you've given her.

She throws her head back, cranes her neck, brushes a hand around your hair while you pump through your climax. Eventually, your cock slips, winds down to a complete halt. You find your lips returning to her collarbones, taking solace on her sensitive flesh as you remain intimately attached together for a little while longer.

"Shit." You look down, past the curves of her chest, see the puddles and drops of slick on the floor. She mirrors your gesture, checks the damage between her legs, and it's a disaster: her thighs are dripping with cum down to her feet, with two noticeable blots parallel to the other.

"So needy." Chaeyeon says with a laugh, caressing your cheek, her voice a temptation in your ear, goading you for more. "Not lucky with the ladies, hmm?"

Wistfully, you reply, "Yeah."

Chaeyeon slowly releases your chin from her hand, slips from your clutch to grab a stream of tissue rolls to clean herself up. You cling to the sink with wobbly legs, staring down at the basin, overcome by a wave of both regret and exhaustion. Unwelcome thoughts creep in. A lack of protection, a return of her dour persona, and your reputations at stake-you'll entertain them all in the morning, when the honeymoon period ends.

When you look up, you see Chaeyeon in the mirror, almost finished dressing up, fixing her cleavage before zipping up her crop top. She stares back, grinning. "You know you still have to drive me home. So when you're done pining over not cumming in my pussy-"

"Where? Where's home?"

"Yours."

(A/N: Finally got to one of the four selected requests! I'm sorry this one took a lot longer than expected, but what can you expect from me XD I still have PCD as I write this down and no amount of copium can help me recover haha. I loved the request as it gave me the perfect excuse to write Chaeyeon again; she's an underrated hottie and I'm glad she (1) quit Queendom Puzzle instead of pushing through and (2) Knock became a surprise hit. It's only a matter of time before her star rises even further. Thank you for reading!)

There is no other way to put it: you've hit rock bottom. You're down horrendous. It's a sorry state your family or friends can drag you out of, no matter how hard they try-and that's if you still have any friends left. In the eyes of randoms, they see a zombie, a soulless husk of a man-one who used to be brimming with life, with nothing but anguish and despair filling his soul now. Each passerby looks on with one of two expressions: concern and pity or apathy and indifference. Some with a little disgust. They've got lives to live, obligations to attend to, and some divine purpose given by higher powers to fulfill. So do you, but there's a difference: you've lost the will to live.

Barely functioning, everyday life has turned into a nightmarish hell. Days, then weeks, and eventually months, fly by in a loop. You slog through your office job, receive income, then you carelessly splurge on lavish drinking bursts afterward. Your liver absolutely despises your guts by now. Night after night, you drink away the ceaseless pain hurting your heart more than the alcohol you consume. It's become too numbing at this point. The morning after, you don't bother cleaning up the mess you unknowingly made from the day before, especially when you throw up on the floors of your apartment rather than on your toilet.

So it goes. Not a single day passes by without digging your grave a little deeper with your alcohol addiction, but Fridays were particularly special. It's when you decide that your place shouldn't bear the brunt of your rampant alcoholism for one day. Instead, after another monotonous shift, you head to your favorite place-your other place of solitude-a tent bar that treats you like their best friend, mainly because you're their most loyal customer, but otherwise, you enjoy the fresh air, grilled food, and the patrons' attempts to sing their hearts out-with hilarious results.

Of course, the drinks were also part of the experience. You usually end up passing out quicker compared to every other day.

You're partially through your first drink when two particularly mesmerizing girls walk in holding hands. Tipsy or not, their beauty immediately captures your attention. Even dressed in all black, they're shining, like angels descended from heaven to grace this cursed earth, sent to remind people of their higher purpose and walk in them.

Gradually, you're staring, drooling. Your brain's in complete shambles, unable to comprehend how divine creatures like them casually walk among mere mortals, partaking in lowly, sinful activities like drinking and hanging out at bars. They take their seats across your table; a perfect position to hold your attention in permanent captivity, without any obstruction.

A waiter approaches the two women, and he should've been a distraction, but instead, it becomes a showcase. The girl in the black dress, seated on the left, shoots these playful, childish stares at the waiter, basically flirting with the guy while she stating her order. Her partner is much more reserved, sharing hers in an orderly manner before they're left to talk with themselves again. The older girl slaps her friend's shoulder, as if correcting her, which the younger woman simply brushes off with a laugh. From just one interaction, you're hooked. You had to have her. This night won't end without their names etched in your head, and if you're lucky, their number, maybe even more.

Another waiter arrives at your table, bottle in hand, asking if you want a refill, which you absentmindedly decline. You're drinking in the sight of the two girls, even as they do casual activities while waiting. They're exchanging conversations, hiding suppressed giggles, but it doesn't mute the younger woman's boisterous laughter. It should be a nuisance, but it isn't; it's a treat to watch her cheeky, bright personality. Even her friend, whose disposition is a complete contrast, has some charm to her reserved nature, and they bounce off each other seamlessly.

In the midst of this space between you and the girls, someone else is singing karaoke, much to the girls' amusement. That's their source of laughter, the very grating voice of that poor soul. Even the older girl's starting to lighten up, despite repeatedly tapping her friend's shoulder while she laughs along. Their waiter arrives with their drinks, and they immediately down two glasses each in rapid succession. You're not even halfway through your first.

"Hey, you think I should try to sing and make these losers second guess about performing next time?" asks the younger girl, staring at the next patron performing on stage.

"Please don't." The older woman replies, face flushed bright red from embarrassment. "We shouldn't make a scene here-"

"C'mon, no one cares. Why are you such a killjoy, Minmin?" she retorts, making a cute pout. Minmin's dismay is your enjoyment.

"I know you want to sing so bad, Yul. Believe me, you'll be back on stage soon, but you just have to be patient-"

"Says the loser who hasn't gotten an acting job, actress!"

You're amazed Minmin hasn't tried to physically restrain her-at least, not yet. Instead, she's dragged along by Yul to the stage so they can perform. The older woman reluctantly follows without any resistance, simply grabbing the mics without any fanfare, not even announcing who they are or what they'll perform.

The music starts. The girls begin to sing. It's after the first verse that the pieces begin to come together.

Somehow, this girl, Yul, with her childish attitude, flirty face, and sharp tongue, has the most soulful voice you've heard in a very long time. She looks effortless; she runs through each part with minimal strain and her expressions convey the emotion of the ballad very well. Minmin isn't far off either, but her vocal does not hold a candle to Yul's. If they were bar singers, you'd be cursing at the earth giving these two unfortunate circumstances, because such talent shouldn't be constrained to the confines of an open bar. These two are truly angels.

When the song ends, Yul reverts to her mischievous persona, shooting winks and flying kisses at the audience as she walks off the stage, followed by her best friend, shyly bowing at every turn. After returning to their seats, the younger woman's wearing this prideful, triumphant expression on her lips, basking in the glory, eager to gloat. Minmin's nervously smiling, still gently bowing at everyone while cutely gesturing with her hands in a plea to make everyone stop.

Then it's business as usual at the tent bar again. Copious drinking, out of pitch singing, and you mindlessly staring at the girls that it's outright criminal.

Until the thought finally hits.

"Yul…Minmin…Yuri…Minju," you silently mouth. Your eyes suddenly widen, and the realization finally dawns on you.

At first, it was a complete coincidence. They looked too similar to be truly them, that it's a convincing impersonation or face job at best. The real evidence was in their vocals. They sounded too similar, close to a near-perfect impression. You've never heard such divine singing in a very long time, and now it's clear why.

Jo Yuri and Kim Minju performed for you.

The day they disappeared just so happened to be the same day your life began to fall apart. While they're out here living their best lives and enjoying their down time, you were at your lowest, your breaking point. Some part of you understands they bear no blame; it's fate, an inevitability of any temporary group. Yet, no matter how much you prepared for the end, you couldn't endure the loss. The other members have successfully transitioned to their new careers, whether it be in new groups or even solo, but those two-Minju and Yuri- essentially went off the radar. They barely posted on Instagram, so you couldn't even keep up with them on a consistent basis like their former members. Their last shared photos were eight months ago. Minimal social media messages, even fewer magazine shoots or advertisements, and no music, movie, or show to get excited about.

To see them together again not only brings nostalgia, but also revives your sense of purpose again.

Every girl in that group was special, but in your eyes, Minju and Yuri were different. Yuri had her standout vocals, Minju with her divine beauty, but you loved them beyond those traits; you loved everything about them. You promised you'd support their endeavors after disbandment, but so far, there was nothing to support. Their absence from the spotlight hurt you more than it hurt them. The worst part is the realization that you'll likely never see them after tonight, that you can't do anything to convince them to further their careers-to do something. After all, you wanted them both to thrive like their other members.

Of course, you can't approach them casually. You'll probably melt into a puddle mere steps away. So you whip out your phone and take rapid-fire photos. It's dangerous, but fuck it, this is a once in a lifetime scene. They're preoccupied with their drinks and conversation to notice your camera. You gather a gallery that will sustain you for months, even if they disappear from the public eye again. At first, you're delighted, overjoyed even, but the immediate realization clouds your mood.

You sigh. You put your phone down, staring at the twosome once again, but this time, with a yearning desire. They're within your grasp. Uncertain of the future, you slowly reach out with your hand, imagining a scenario where you pour your heart out to them-how you missed them so badly, how much their disappearance has affected you, and how you'll wait for them till eternity, even if realistically, you'll break long before that no matter how long it takes for them to make a song, be in a movie or show, anything. Sure, this all sounds ridiculous, alarmingly disturbing, and should be shared with a therapist instead of two celebrities, but to you, no one would understand more than Minju and Yuri can.

When you draw your hand back, Minju's eyes are locked right at yours. She's gently smiling and waving back. Yuri notices her gesture, recognizes you, and waves along with greater energy. The younger idol giggles at you. She catches you in a moment of weakness, cheeks puffed up and tensely flushed. The two girls exchange a brief glance, Yuri's eyes alight with a new opportunity to cause more mischief, smirking at her, essentially screaming that no one, not even Minju, can stop her.

Yuri cocks her head to the side, shoots you a wink, a flying kiss, sticks out her tongue; she flirts with a tinge of both cuteness and sexiness that heightens her attraction-and awakens a bit of your lust. Minju facepalms, awkwardly chuckling, wanting no part in this act. You're left frozen, in awe at how unabashedly coy she is. She was the resident brat, but now she's taken her friskiness to a whole new level. Proving your point, she pulls the strap of her dress down, teasing, expression mocking, quietly mouthing, "I know you want it." Just as shocked as you, her friend's eyes widen, her hand covering her mouth before tapping Yuri's shoulder, telling her to stop. Surprisingly, she complies obediently, pulls her thin strap back up.

Hopefully, no one else besides you saw that.

Averting their gaze for a moment, you take a moment to let the small interaction sink in. You got more than you bargained for: a serenade, a gallery's worth of photos, and flirty fanservice from your favorite idols. Perhaps this is what you needed to finally bring yourself out of your self-inflicted funk and back to normalcy. Maybe this is what you really need all along: closure. They won't be in your life moving forward, but your fond memories of them are always there to look back on, and you're grateful for the joy they provided you during those difficult times.

When you look back up, Minju and Yuri have disappeared from the table across yours; they're directly seated right in front of you. They're carefully watching your every move, Yuri's expression brazen as ever, constantly searching for opportunities to pick you apart, and Minju, her enabler, despite the light admonitions and warnings, shyly following her junior's eyes. All it takes is one turn before it spirals into a car crash of disastrous proportions.

Thankfully, you're not the one to break the ice. "Sup," says Yuri, casually feigning innocence. Your lips move in the shape of hello, but only air comes out. They've seen this reaction from fans hundreds of times.

"Hello," adds Minju, sweetly smiling, as pure as her brightly lit face. "Did you enjoy our little performance?"

It takes a minute-maybe four-before an answer forms in your head. You've seen them from afar, you've seen them up close, but never in your wildest dreams did you imagine them talking to you on an intimate level. They're patient, softly giggling over how overwhelmed and speechless you are to respond back. Anyone else in that space would react the same way; you don't need to move your neck around to feel the jealousy from your fellow patrons. You're not only carrying your own burdens, but the expectations of others.

"Yeah." The word comes out natural, without second thought, while your thoughts are focused on them and them alone. Fuck, their skin looks flawless, is your sole noteworthy observation. Even if you had the full capacity to think coherently, you'd end up with this exact same answer.

"We missed performing on stage, so we felt that it would be nice to go up and-" Minju pauses, repeatedly turning to her friend, silently observing you, trying her best to look diplomatic. "Sing a little bit. We were a little nervous, but I'm glad you liked it."

"Well, why haven't you done that?" you ask, the nervous smile on your features gradually shifting to a frown.

"Done what?"

Leaning forward, the stare you shoot is sharp, cold. "You haven't been on Instagram in months. Both of you. The other members have been on TV, they've been releasing music, they've been doing photoshoots, they're in commercials. They're being successful, but you-" You pause, aware of your surroundings, trying your hardest not to make a scene. "Where the hell have you been?"

Both girls' reactions split down the middle as your temper flares ever slightly. Yuri leans back into her chair, turns to her friend, surprised by the sudden shift in tone, anxious of what happens now. Minju remains calm, gently rubs her hand on hers, reassuring her.

She takes a moment to formulate a response. "It's been harder than we thought."

"How come?"

Another pause. Minju sighs pondering the thought. "You have no idea how much we want to perform, you know. Believe us. We really tried. I've auditioned for a few big name projects, got a few scripts from some web dramas. They were glorified cameos at best. You don't know how painful it is to see the news that someone else got the role in those big projects-"

Yuri nods in agreement, equally as dejected. She adds, "They promised me I'd debut soon. They never specified exactly when. They have this boy group I've written songs for, they debuted and made two comebacks already with another one lined up in a few months. I've written and recorded so many songs that I absolutely want to perform. Waiting this long, I-"

Yuri pauses, then sighs. Her eyes are glassy.

"I don't even know if I want to do this anymore."

The revelation pierces through your heart like an arrow. It's heartbreaking. Unbelievable, hearing it directly from their mouths. You simply cannot believe they're struggling when everyone else has been able to successfully continue their careers. Even shittier agencies recognize the treasure they have and at least try to make something happen, but this is completely absurd. It sounds too painful to be true.

Only one word can perfectly describe it. "How?"

"We honestly don't know." Minju replies, solemn, downtrodden, defeated. "We might just give up, honestly. Our management won't do anything to help us. Maybe our time in the spotlight is just meant to be short-lived."

You remember the rumblings from a while back, how Minju was scouted and offered a seven-figure deal to join her other members in Le sserafim. She declined. In retrospect, she could have saved her career and two months' worth of migraines with what eventually became a disastrous debut. Fuck, even the thought of seeing her with Sakura and Chaewon together in that alternate reality sparks your imagintion.

"You should have taken that deal, Minju. You really should have." You put it to her straight, almost mocking, very damning, as if to say, 'I told you so.'

She sighs through the thought, completely despondent. "Yeah. Maybe."

The mood is cold, grim. Alcohol releases your most intrusive thoughts, no matter how harsh or intimate they sound. That isn't to say you don't regret them; you'll ponder the consequences in the morning, as usual. At the very least, you find common ground with your two favorite idols, drinking it up through life's challenges as a coping mechanism.

"I'm sorry," you suddenly blurt. "I-I just really miss you both on screen."

"It's all right," adds Minju, trying to form a smile through the pain. Seeing the vulnerability in her eyes makes the gesture even more heartbreaking. "I'm just glad you're still waiting for us. That anyone still wants us."

"God, you can't imagine the jealousy I feel whenever I see the others nowadays and immediately wonder what are you doing. I mean, I don't hate them, I just-"

"Oh, I understand that feeling very well," Minju replies, her grin slowly widening, suppressing a chuckle. Yuri takes the bottle on your side to pour a drink on your cup, which she also steals. "We still keep contact and they're also asking what the fuck are we even doing."

"Look on the bright side, they don't have time to have fun these days, am I right?" Yuri interrupts, followed by boisterous laughter from her. Minju tries, but gloom gets in the way. You try to laugh, but it hurts to laugh right now, among a multitude of other feelings, particularly, pain, despair, and regret.

"Well, it's not been fun for me ever since you've been gone," you say.

You slip your phone concealed behind your hand, slide it across the table. The two women smile at what's on screen; it's memories from their past. It's a treasure trove of funny, embarrassing, and endearing captures that border on obsession. If they didn't know any better, you'd certainly be under a restraining order after seeing the bogus gallery saved on your phone.

"Damn, we looked quite cute," says Yuri, scrolling between pictures. Their heads inch a little closer, while their free fingers trace around each other's edges.

"Yeah." Minju lightly nods. "I'm glad we still have each other, even now."

The older woman slides the phone back to you. Two pairs of eyes gaze at you, both with piqued interest, but Yuri's eyes widen, with much bigger intentions in mind.

"We really appreciate that you're still waiting for us," adds Minju, humble in tone and demeanor as ever. "Just give us your order tonight. It's all on us."

You're briefly taken aback. Even with your sorry state, you feel as if you don't deserve to be rewarded. Panickedly, you shake your head, "No-no-please don't. It's all right, I'll pay for my own-"

"We insist; please let us take care of you tonight," Minju interjects. Yuri glances at her, intrigued by her answer, as a new idea dawns upon her.

"Yeah, you should listen to her," the younger girl adds, returning her gaze at you with a smirk. "Let us handle it."

That was your first mistake.

-----

Actually, the first mistake was focusing on them to begin with, and the second was allowing them to close the space in your heart.

Yuri leads the way back to your apartment and is the first one in; that's when you realize the mess you've gotten yourself in-both literally and figuratively. Empty food packs and spilled beer bottles make up most of the litter that fills every room in your once decent flat. It makes you look even worse than you already are. Mentally you're apologizing, growing more flustered as your two uninvited guests explore your place. Minju's been reserved the entire time that the expression she makes is nearly indistinguishable, even though her mouth gradually slacks seeing the shitshow you've been living in for a while.

"Your place is really cute!" Yuri knocks off some of the mess on the living room table before hopping on the desk, completely disregarding the wet puddle that now stains her black dress.

Minju's mouth opens, but not a single word is uttered. It's no longer her problem.

It's yours.

"I hope you don't mind us hanging out for a bit," she says, and you're not opposed to the notion in the slightest. Anything to liven up your place.

You and Minju leave Yuri by herself on the desk-for now. From across the table is the only piece in the apartment left untouched. Dusty, but unsullied. It's a shelf filled with merch, albums, and group pictures.

"You took this?" She reaches her hand out to a particular photo, a framed picture of her and Yuri doing fanservice during one of their concerts. You quietly nod.

She smiles wider at the shot. "Would you like me to sign it?"

As you're about to reply, Yuri swoops in between you both, tired of being ignored for at least five minutes.

"Hey! What are you doing-" she notices the framed picture, disrupting her train of thought. "Ooh! I remember this! We look cute here, Minmin!" Without any consideration, the younger girl snatches the framed photo from her friend.

"Can we keep this?"

"No." Minju tries to take the photo back, but Minju brushes her away. "That's his photo, you can't just-"

"I'll buy it for lots of money!"

"Stop! No amount of money can buy the sentimental value it has. Just give it back."

"But money can't buy this pussy though." Yuri lifts the bottom of her dress, teasing her panties. Minju immediately pushes it back down.

"Yuri!"

"What?" Yuri asks, lips pouting, tone innocent, as if unaware of the stunt she just pulled off. "You know how horny these fanboys are." Turning to you, she reaches the photo out for you to reclaim. "Your choice."

There's no resistance when you take the photo back and return it from the shelf. Yuri's hands are itching to grab at her dress again, as if daring you to prove her point. Minju's on edge, on the cusp of bailing, ready to take her friend with her before this messy situation leads to something worse. It's a little tense, the mood a little suffocating, and none of you are able to make the best judgment calls.

"Sorry," mutters Minju, now holding her friend's hand. "I'm really sorry about that. We should leave-"

"No you're not-" Yuri blurts out, before Minju places her other hand on her mouth, visibly irate by her malicious behavior.

"It's all good," you mumble, still fixated on the very notion that they're in your apartment. One way or another, you want them to stay a little longer. And then you make your next mistake. "I mean, in all honesty, it's about time I should get rid of these. Like I said before, I haven't been able to move on, but you two are getting by just fine."

"Right." Minju's gaze is sympathetic, enchanting, endearing-everything that reminds you of simpler times. The thought dawned on you at times, when you really considered burning it all-no, not even considering selling it to more sensible people-but actually burning the bridge connecting you and them. Though you say you want to move on, you understood it would haunt you for the rest of your life if you actually followed through with such an impulsive decision. "But you shouldn't."

Yuri pushes Minju's hand off her. "I think you just need a little pussy. It's not that deep."

"Yuri!" Minju faces her with an even more annoyed glare.

"Maybe you're right," you blurt, capturing the girls' attention. "I'm not free of sin, I do think you're hot. Both of you."

"Told you." Yuri gloats, shaking her other hand free of Minju's grip. She then approaches you, caresses your shoulders up to your cheek, lightly brushing the sides of your hair. "Tell me: am I the most fuckable member of the group?"

Knowing that Yuri has won, Minju stops trying to intervene. Admittedly, it was, in fact, Minju you thought was the most fuckable, and that's no easy feat in such a stacked group, but to appease her, you nod.

"Come here," murmurs Yuri, her fingertips rubbing around your chin as she drags you down for a sinful, deep kiss. Your fingers thread on her dress, the very same one she threatened to pull, now in your possession to grip. Her leg wraps around your hip as she pulls you closer, yearning for more of you, at the expense of your balance. It's all falling into place, close to falling apart.

Then she says the two words that ultimately end you.

"Fuck me."

And that's when everything breaks.

You both end up in your bedroom, pushing Yuri onto the mattress, then hastily ridding yourself of your clothes: tie, coat, and shirt in that order. She kicks off her heels, smirking, tongue sticking out-teasing you with glimpses of her legs, panties, and pussy as you struggle to push down your pants. I know you want it, she mouths, and you're inadvertently nodding in agreement. From the onset, you knew her dress wouldn't come off on its own; she's challenging you to rip it off her body, which you had every intention to do.

Your pants are still halfway down your legs when you join her in bed, completely removed after you shake the now useless heap off your feet. Yuri pulls you while you're still approaching her for another passionate kiss. She recognizes your desire to undress her just as quickly, too. From lips to lips, she lightly brushes you down, your lips landing on her chin, neck, and collarbones. Your hand tries to grab a piece of her clothing; she parries your every attempt at her dress.

"You won't make this easy, will you?" you say, aware of her daunting challenge but worked up regardless.

"Of course," replies Yuri, visibly smug, getting amusement from riling people up. She rolls to the side and wraps her arms around your waist in a tight embrace. Kissing your forehead, she adds, "Show me how bad you wanna fuck me."

It's the right combination of seductive words, tone, and taunting demeanor that causes you to wrestle control over her. Reciprocating her kiss to your forehead, you return the favor, whisper an equally filthy reply that makes her squirm with excitement. "I'm gonna fuck this pussy so hard. Gonna fucking wreck you."

"Try me."

You slip both straps of her dress down her arms, enough to reveal her round, perky breasts without any cleavage. Without any further hesitation you keep going; nose, lips, neck, down to her chest-you leave a sloppy trail of bite marks, not even kisses in your wake. Yuri shuts her eyes, whines, folds like a deck with your arousing touch. Her body's feeding your aching, hungry soul better than any meal ever could.

If it were up to you, and if it was in your capacity, the rest of her garment would be ripped in half through your teeth. Instead, they're bunched up halfway around her waist, with the bottom half pushed up with your hand as you take hold of her panties. Digging your fingers between them, she winces, groans sympathetically, as your thumb presses on her folds, twisting her legs between yours uncomfortably. A single touch informs you that she's wet at her core, aching, throbbing. She told you it wouldn't be this easy; you'll make sure it stays that way.

"Goddamn, Yuri. This wet already and I'm barely getting down with what I wanna do with you," you mumble, your thumb lightly nudging against her folds. She's trembling, breathing rapidly, fingers now gripped on the edge of your sheets, unable to keep still, her lips forming incoherent babbles. Add your other hand in the equation, take a handful of her chest, palm it around your grip for you to play with. It doesn't do much that already overwhelms her senses, but her flesh is so squeezable, so malleable, so delicate to grasp, it becomes almost impossible to let go.

You dig your fingers around Yuri's clit, her hips slowly grinding in tandem with your efforts to pleasure her. Her thighs involuntarily spread, providing more space for your fingers to be swallowed up by the tightness of her folds. With each pump and withdrawal, your digits are coated in copious amounts of slick. The sensations in her aching core pull your hand in like a magnet, allowing you to indulge in the erotic sight of Yuri quaking, screaming, tossing her head back beneath you.

"Yes, yes, yes-keep going-fuck-" Yuri makes her blissful cries loud and clear, enough for your neighbors to hear, way past any subtlety. Maintaining a steady rhythm fingering the mewling woman, you move your other hand back and forth between her shapely breasts, squeezing and kneading them, your eyes inching closer with each ripple, bounce, and jiggle. Something about the way she melts with every move you make on her slowly drives you wild, your mind racing with countless sinful desires you've been quietly suppressing ever since you first laid your eyes on them.

If not for how addicting it is to feel her soft flesh in your hand, it'd be hardening your cock right now. Doesn't matter; you've been slowly gliding your legs, positioning yourself directly atop her, your bulge aching against her thighs, yearning for her skin. Can't grow too comfortable, even as she squirms, yelps, writhes beneath your grasp. She adjusts, becomes acclimated to your fingers as it draws more slick, airily begging for more. Even before she considers the thought, you're one step ahead of her, quickening your pace, generating a sloppy, satisfying sound while she leaks on your sheets.

You're losing it, reveling in this newfound power you have over Yuri, that her orgasmic screams of pain and pleasure go overlooked. It isn't clear whether she wants you to keep going or to stop. Your fingers never relent, even while she makes a quivering mess of your bedsheets and wetting your thigh and boxers. Eventually, you withdraw your digits from her torrentially drenched cunt. Another sticky waterfall drips on already inundated sheets. She can't stop cumming. She doesn't want to stop, body willing.

Yuri tosses her legs around, weak legs still violently trembling from her orgasm. The room returns to its usually quiet setting-except the gentle sound of sloppy flesh lingers. A bit quieter, more subdued, but your ears recognize a familiar sound.

Oh, right.

Somehow, you completely overlooked Minju's presence. While you were focused on pleasuring Yuri, she had quietly leaned against the bedroom door, one of her hands following yours to that same pleasurable spot, watching with glazed eyes, enjoying the sight of her friend getting her rightful punishment. An unforgivable offense, but anyone else in your position would have done the same thing, especially when a half naked Yuri's offering herself up on your bed.

"I was expecting you to go all the way," she drawls, breathing heavily between words. She doesn't care that your eyes are looking down, following her hand deep between her underwear hypnotically. "I hate to say it, but I was feeling a little jealous of her."

Without a word, you quickly slide down her already unzipped jeans, her panties to follow. Holding her active hand, you draw it away from her core, your eyes intertwined in a passionate gaze. Time slows to a crawl. Your lips inches apart from sparking another fire. The whole time you've known her, she's been quiet, reserved, nervous to make a move-that she'd ask you seven times before finally going for whatever move she wants to make.

She pulls you for a deep kiss, her other hand tugging down your wet boxers. Pressing your weight against hers, she strokes your hard cock, rubs it against her aching core, moans seductively in your ear. You're biting down on her neck, collarbones, anything that marks her, tells the world you fucked her. Your hands latch onto her hourglass shaped waist, lightly pushing her on the bedroom door, lightly taking her off the ground without any grace, her skin another addiction to ruin your life.

Kissing down her clothed chest, you make quick work of her off-shoulder shirt before you dive back into her perfect body. Minju whimpers and whines,her nails digging into your back as you peck your way toward her core. She feels so right in your grasp; her ridiculous proportions, her slender legs, her unreal navel that warrants a prolonged kiss-everything about Kim Minju's body was meant to be worshiped. She brings you to your knees, down to your lowest. It was easy to ruin Yuri, but this is something far beyond your level.

How do you deserve something like this?

Looking between her spread legs, you contemplate the thought. Minju's achingly wet, just like her younger friend. She regains a little composure and realizes you're on your knees, frozen in place. The graceful and patient woman she is, she gently caresses your cheek, forcing you to meet her gentle gaze. "Take me. Even just for tonight, I'm yours."

Her lips draw yours like a magnet. Minju breaks eye contact at the first touch, moaning as your tongue familiarizes itself with her deliciously soft folds. Her head repeatedly thumps against the door with a thud, Digging your hands on her thighs, you've got Minju exactly where you want her to be: wrapped around your head in a suffocating lock. It doesn't matter that your words come out as corrupted babble; your tongue is doing all the talking, and it loves her pussy.

"That's it, that feels so good." She rubs her hands on your hair, gradually shifting into a grip of the back of your skull as you acclimate to her velvety walls. "Doesn't fucking me feel better than Yuri does?"

You'll make your final comparison when you're done with them both. For now, you're focused on devouring Minju's cunt, or dying by thigh asphyxiation-whichever comes first. Her approving moans encourage you, as if you needed any further motivation, and even if you lacked the desire, which is a completely absurd thought, her legs are there to make sure you drink up till she has nothing left.

Her juices taste so sweet, so divine, that even if your tongue dries up, you'd still be relentlessly eating her out. Soon enough, your tongue digs through every sensitive nerve and spot, setting every nerve in Minju's body on fire. Little by little, you're chipping away at her dainty facade. Her volume and pitch rises and rises; her grip on your hair and face tightens further. She's exactly like her friend: a screaming mess that loves getting fucked.

There's no tempo, no constant pace in the manner you take Minju-only a need to devour. Her patience knows only one thing too: the reward of an inevitable climax. She's slowly grinding her hips against your face, pulling you further into her wrecked folds. It's too fast and too sudden; you're amazed at how she's this alarmingly drenched-

"Fuck!"

Minju cries out, pulling you harshly by the hair, turning your face into a canvas of sticky nectar. From your vantage point, her eyes are slammed shut, mouth agape, stuck in suspended animation while her body violently trembles, even shaking your foundations. She's completely lost in the high of her release, basking in the powerful sensations washing over her. As the lewd scene plays out, your tongue eagerly gathers up her juices. It overflows, drips down your chest and spills all over the floor even when you carry her to bed, flippantly tossing her beside her freshly fucked friend.

You take a breather to taste them both at once. Euphoric.

-----

The sight in front of you is enough to make you cum. Your two favorite members splayed on your bed, at their barest, in a state of coming undone because of your handiwork. And you still haven't put your dick inside either of them. Deciding which one to slide your cock in first is a life or death decision. You'll make your choice after you flip them on their backs.

You're stroking your cock as you join the two girls on the bed, your other hand caressing Minju and Yuri's skin back and forth, grabbing a pair of handfuls of ass. Time is a nonfactor; you've got all night to do every fantasy you've imagined with them, yet they're still reeling from their initial orgasms, taking longer to recover.

"Fuck, you're so perfect," you whisper against Minju's back, adding emphasis with each word, send a shiver all over her spine. Yuri feels every word too. "I dream about this exact scenario often. You, completely naked on your back, as I fuck you and cum all over this hot pussy from behind-" you follow, before you're overcome by the urge to kiss her shoulder. It's better than whatever dreams you've conjured up, because it's real. You rub your cock against Minju's folds, and it's an immaculate sensation that not even your imagination can conjure up.

The tension hardly stretches for more than a few precious moments. Even without words, you understood they were impatient, and so were you. Deep in your gut, there's a fear that if you wasted a little more time, this once in a lifetime opportunity will disappear in a blink of an eye.

"Fuck." Minju's pussy feels so incredibly tight, you never want to pull out from the uncertainties of tomorrow. It's all the more intense when you draw yourself out, then thrust back in, watch as your cock enters and exits her cunt at a steady tempo. The bed gently rocks in harmony with your motion, moving like the ticks of a clock. The longer you fuck her, the longer the fantasy remains.

You grab her by the shoulder, by the waist, by her hair. Any part you haven't marked red, you see red. Minju remains motionless, body lightly rippling, reduced to a groaning heap with each stroke. In this prone position, she's nothing but a toy for your pleasures. You're dominating her. You can tell she hasn't taken dick this hard in a long time by her rising tone. You have plenty of filthy things to say, but you'll let your hips do all the talking for you.

She feels so fucking good, so fucking hot.

It only seems appropriate that you almost lose yourself in Minju's heat when suddenly, Yuri cries out for you. "Please."

You don't relent. Instead, by instinct, your pace quickens. Snaking your hand on her shoulder, you inch closer to Minju's head, gently nibbling her ear. "God, Minju, you're such a delightful fucktoy. So much easier to handle than your friend."

Yuri's hand reaches out to yours, and it snaps you from your lust-fueled haze. Her eyes sparkle under the dim light, cutely whimpering, "Fuck me please."

Can't hide the smirk on your face after she pleads. You face her, relentlessly pounding into Minju's pussy, to prove a point. Assert control. You know she has no power over you. You're threatening to undo yourself before she even gets a hint of mercy.

"I'm yours too," says Yuri, looking penitent, even though in reality, this was her plan. "You said you were my favorite too, right? Please."

Something about cutie Yuri tugs at your heartstrings. Cruel as you are, you've still got a soft spot. Maybe you fold this easily for cute girls like her. Maybe you're not as assertive as you've projected yourself.

Your shadow hovers atop her. You have a hand gripped on her throat, your wet, hard cock lining against her slick folds. "Brat."

There's a subtle smile when you say the word. Her title. Her claim to fame. No matter how submissive she may act, deep down she's a true brat and prides herself as one. A point made deeper when you impale her pussy with your cock. She screams-a sharp contrast to the subdued Minju. A way to make her point.

"Deeper! Harder! Fuck me hard!" Her voice comes out strained due to your palm firmly pressed on her neck. You lift her slightly upward, snake your suffocating hand down to her breast. Soft, pillowy flesh you squeeze, claim as yours. You're crooning against her neck while adjusting to her equally hot tightness. Her pleasured-wracked face sticks a rebellious tongue out, darting in your direction as her hand frisks your torso. "You know deep down I'm a better fuck than her-fuck!"

She yelps, falls down to earth without grace. Her hands press on the sheets as you fuck her-ravage her pretty little cunt. No tempo, no slow burn, only raw, unadulterated pounding. Your palm tightly presses her tit, twists her face into even more lewd, unbearable pleasure. The words she has are lost, turned into deafening screams that echo throughout the room. "So! Fucking! Deep!"

It's sinful, it's hot, it's perfect. You have her exactly where you want, propped on all fours as you mindlessly fuck her into submission, hands roaming her chest, her waist, her ass, lips kissing her shoulders and neck. She's reduced to nothing but a high pitched mess; God, you're sure everyone knows you've got Jo Yuri in bed now. Oh well. You've got a story to tell over coffee break on Monday.

It's only when you force yourself to stop-and this is no easy feat-that she quiets down. Your cock is upset; you've edged yourself inside their hot pussy twice now, you can't keep yourself in limbo forever, among other possible implications. The thought of protection never really bubbled up until this point, but you're so far gone, far past the point of no return.

You'll play with fate a little more before leaving yourself in its unpredictable hands.

The tango goes back and forth; Minju then Yuri, in that order, a few minutes at a time, which stretches into hours. You've twisted them in positions you fantasized and beyond your imagination, fucking both former idols till your cock can no longer bear with you. So when you have to make that fateful decision, it's merely an illusion. Even as they make their deepest pleas for you to claim what's rightfully yours, you reject the notion and take your own path.

It only seems right that the share of warm load is spread over their toned stomachs. In the aftermath of your long overdue orgasm, you fall back and wonder if it was the right decision. Initially, their faces are shaken with disbelief, utterly shocked that for once, the fan never came inside either of them, before all three of you eventually succumbed to their soreness and exhaustion.

-----

By some miracle, you're standing on your two feet, holding onto Minju's shoulders as she turns on the shower. Running water gushes over all three of you as it flows down your bodies without moving with the intended purpose of cleaning yourselves up. The older woman tilts her head at an angle where your lips find solace in her collarbones, gently pecking her skin-not the rough, sloppy lovemaking you'd been doing for the past hour, but intimate, sentimental love. She eventually turns around to rub her hand across your entangled arm, sharing in your warmth. Yuri hugs you from behind, her arms wrapped around your waist, nuzzling her head against your back like her favorite pillow. It's your innermost desires at its most raw, fully realized.

You feel content. You feel grateful.

The same three words repeat in your mouth over and over, spaced between the occasional kiss to both idols, deeply imprinting how much they mean to you. "I love you. I love you."

You barely scrub each other for over ten minutes before you leave the shower. The two girls crash back into your bed after a rushed effort to dry up, completely overlooking their wet hair. You quietly follow, putting yourself in the center as your two biases instinctively wrap an arm around you, the now quiet mood in the room a far cry from the loud mess it was when you first entered. The last image saved in your head is Yuri's gentle smile, her finger reaching out to brush away a little strand of hair before you all eventually pass out from exhaustion.

You've never been in a better position to die happier.

-----

The morning after is the first after a long time that you don't feel like complete shit.

The room reeks of sex-a smell that will permeate for a long, long time. Thankfully, it's the weekend and you're in no rush to put on your typical office wear. Minju and Yuri are long gone, and so is any trace of their presence in your apartment, except the lingering scent of last night's activities. Just like that, life goes on.

Mostly.

The day after, you've tidied up most of your apartment. By Monday, to the surprise of your employer, you start working past the usual 9-to-5. He makes a little comment about your sudden change of heart walking past your cubicle. "You're usually the first one out."

The snarky remark goes overlooked, mostly because you're preoccupied with thoughts of Minju and Yuri, as usual. You drown yourself in monotonous officework with the purpose of collapsing once you go home. It works. You'd rather be anywhere but home or holding a bottle.

A week passes. Rumblings of your character development spread like wildfire around the workplace, but you pay no heed to it. Friday arrives, and it pains you to hear that you're not allowed to work overtime hours because of their employee friendly policy. Your mates invite you for a night at some club downtown, but you decline. Some part of you clings to the little hope that they might be there tonight.

The place is mostly empty, save for a few early patrons. You've got all night and the weekend, but you didn't have to wait very long.

As soon as you put your menu down, ready for dinner, the two women have taken seats right in front of you. No words necessary, only warm, easy smiles.

You smile back. "Is this going to be our thing now?"

Now armed with dangerously alluring blonde hair, Yuri briefly kisses you, followed by an inviting smirk shared with Minju that tells you everything you need to know. "We hope your weekend schedule is empty. We have so much in store for you."

(A/N: I really love fan x idol stories, so this particular one hits all the right notes for me. Apologies once again for taking too long, this was supposed to be done when Taxi dropped (great comeback, go stream!). It's amazing to see Yuri potentially hitting it big globally with her Squid Game 2 casting news, here's hoping Minjobless can find big roles in movies and dramas as well! She deserves it. Thank you for reading!)

(PS: College started up again and I'm drowning in intensive research and assignments, oof. Currently, the only day I have free time is Sunday, since I have school stuff six of the seven days of the week. Expect more lengthy gaps of this magnitude between fics. Additionally, the Pokémon DLC is coming out real soon, which definitely will occupy my spare time more. However, this will change sometime around mid-to-late September, so here's hoping I can get a few more fics out for you. Appreciate you as always <3)

VOGUISH (ITZY RYUJIN)

(Thank you for the commission! I hope its to your liking.)

-----

If you had any other choice, you'd rather be stuck at where you were previously: earning a modest income, just enough to get by from job to job, performing straightforward work, and most importantly, friendly clientele to attend to. It wasn't surprising; you knew this industry was built on the backs of some of the most snobbish, arrogant people you've ever had the displeasure of meeting, but-

"You're late. Again."

Shin Ryujin was probably among the absolute worst.

If you're going to make an honest assessment, Ryujin isn't that bad. Serving as her head stylist for the better part of a year, she's by far the client you've spent the most time with. She doesn't talk a big deal about the money she's making or prattle into a conversation intricately designed to inflate her ego to the moon, unlike some of the other A-listers you've had the 'privilege' of working under.

However, her attitude is definitely up there.

It's not even a little over a minute. In fact, you've been standing at her entrance door two minutes before the clock hits ten. Doesn't matter if you're in the right; her style, her rules. She doesn't care that you're sweating buckets rushing her newly minted outfit from across the street up to the 27th floor. Any moment where she doesn't look like a million dollars is a moment wasted.

"My apologies, Ryu-"

Ryujin's glare puts the fear of God into your soul. "What did I say about using my name?"

You pause. Gulp your throat. "My sincerest apologies, Miss Shin."

"Hmph." Grimacing with disgust, she hastily snatches the dress from your possession, proceeds to slam the door on you, tone bordering on shouting, "Come inside. You're late."

Entering the door shortly after, you're welcomed by a film crew in the process of recording her as she struts around the living room suite holding your dress in her hands. If there's anything you've learned from attending to her, she's as effortless of an actress as she is as a model. The moment her eyes face the camera, she instantly transforms into the picture perfect icon that has all of social media buzzing.

Moving out of the way has become muscle memory at this point. When she's in front of the cameras, you're merely an onlooker.

"So this is my outfit for tonight," she says enthusiastically into the camera, proudly flaunting the outfit-a convincing facade to the untrained eye. For the press, she's this likable, larger than life figure living her best life, attending all these invitation-only parties and wearing the most stylish dresses.

"It was a risque design, and I wanted to try something bold for once. It was love at first sight when I saw it," she comments, and you know very well this wasn't her first choice. They won't know that this was the 12th option, handpicked just last night after weeks of trial and error, only to be thrown away right after. At her request, you had it ordered on incredibly short notice, and the plan almost fell through. It was hard to deny Ryujin's wants, no matter how impractical or unfeasible they were.

In a way, this was to be expected. Ryujin emanates this young, it girl energy. Like any aspiring icon, she usually wants to stand out from a usually safe crowd. Not that it hasn't stopped you from interfering a handful of times, much to her annoyance. After all, you'd assume she was going to a casual party or some red carpet event, not a prestigious gala with some of the biggest people in the world in attendance. You name it: politicians, CEOs of tech giants, industry titans who make the cover of Forbes and Time every other month. There are high standards that must be kept, and she's doing anything but uphold those standards.

The camera pans away from her, and she immediately tosses the clothing aside with zero regard whatsoever. You manage to save it before it becomes near valueless. No matter how bothersome she acts, you can't bring yourself to call her out on her antics; not just because there are several careers at stake, including yours, but you know what she's capable of doing when her patience exceeds breaking point. It's a firsthand experience to catch Ryujin in a state that isn't picture perfect.

"Where are you?" Ryujin shouts from the other room, irate. "Slow as ever, my goodness."

When you approach her, she's on her phone, seated in front of the mirror with her legs crossed, having commanded the camera crew to vacate the room, leaving you alone with her. It's only when you are together that she's her true self, and it's not far from what you usually experience even with other people around. They understand it's in their best interest not to interfere.

Turning her eyes, she catches you idling with her sharp stare. "Well? Are you just gonna stand there and look at me all day? You already do that on the regular."

Her behavior's something neither cameras nor testimonies will ever publicly reveal: that Ryujin's practically a spoiled brat behind closed doors. Any attempts to expose her have been silenced by huge settlements, NDAs, and every legal bind in the book. And when those don't work out, there's the strangely coincidental disappearance of potential witnesses that read like every tin-foil hat post written by some gullible conspiracy theorist on the internet.

In retrospect, perhaps there's some merit to the rumor that her father is supposedly the head of some mafia organization, but you digress. She has never brought her personal history up in interviews, other than she's been adopted by the founder of a relatively unknown investment firm. An elaborate lie.

She's engrossed on her phone, unable to keep herself still while you struggle to apply makeup on her face. Time's of the essence, she usually says, but she's purposeful with how much time is wasted, with the primary objective of finding an excuse to lay on you. It was never going to be fair from the start. All the moments where you were late, in her eyes, were intentionally done to put you in the wrong.

To be fair, the numerous stylists who've taken care of her warned you in advance. You couldn't deny the opportunity for a huge paycheck.

"Miss Shin, please stay still," you say, carefully stringing your words together, delivered in the least offensive tone possible.

To your surprise, she complies. It's a miracle. She never obliges with your requests, let alone direct commands.

Applying the rest of her makeup takes only minutes. Usually, you'd be going back and forth, and you'd be in front of the mirror for hours. See how easier everyone's job is when all parties cooperate and collaborate effectively? You're doing your part like it's second nature; you only wish Ryujin was this accommodating more often, and not whether her brain flips a coin to determine her attitude for the day.

"You look amazing, Miss Shin," you comment, staring at the mirror, her face radiating with the glow of a million bucks.

Taking her attention off the phone, even if it's only for a second, proves to be a chore, as proven by her particularly grumpy expression. She scans herself, peers through every little detail in the mirror-showing more interest in herself during this brief moment than her dozens of photoshoots over the last month-and gives the smallest of nods. You even see the tiniest of grins escaping her lips, too.

Her steely attitude unwavering, she commands you, sternly, "Bring me the dress. Now."

A clap of hands and the door opens like magic. Your co-stylist briskly walks toward you, outfit in hand, promptly handing it over before immediately leaving the room. No words are necessary; she makes it clear who's allowed to touch her, let alone dress her, and it's only you. Handling Ryujin was as meticulous and methodical as preserving a historical treasure.

She finally gets off her chair, hands prepared to loosen her robe before something catches her attention. "Door."

It's common sense. You hurry over to the opened door, slam it shut. Then the magic happens.

Ryujin nonchalantly slips her bathrobe off her shoulders, letting it freely fall to the floor. She's draped in nothing but the thinnest of underwear, her asscheeks openly poking through the fabric. It's amazing how she's allowing you to see her like this, her barest, when most of her shoots and red carpet dresses have been nothing but conservative. Sometimes seductive, but mostly safe. There's nothing left for your imagination. On the other hand, you're so used to this vivid sight, it's almost part of your daily routine. You shouldn't be fazed, but her perfect figure has you staring, shamelessly, like it's your very first time seeing nudity.

At times, it leaves you vulnerable. Like now.

"You were doing quite well too," she comments, snarkily, gazing at your blank expression through the reflection, snapping you from your daze.

Gulping your throat, you find yourself embarrassed, ears flushed red. Even while you go through the methodical process of measuring and dressing her, the shame lingers. You find yourself unable to glance at the mirror. The very few flashes and glints that meet you when you turn you face your reflection, you find her suppressing a tiny giggle.

As you put on the finishing touches on her outfit, she brings the point home, "We're already late by an hour."

A quick look at your watch tells you it's almost eleven. Ten minutes before the next hour. At first glance, it's still early, but it can be deceiving. Parisian traffic is notoriously unforgiving, event or no event, showing no partiality. Getting from one place to another is a whole day's work.

Then you remember the fans and paparazzi congregated at the hotel's entrance. This crowd that you had to brute force through just to get her dress on time. The hotel security can barely hold them back, and you can hear several sirens screaming miles away, most likely police presence. Many persons of interest will be gathered in one setting, after all.

"How do you feel, Miss Shin?" you ask, taking a step back to let her soak in her meticulously curated appearance.

She blinks rapidly. Then she takes a deep breath.

"Let's just get this over with."

-----

Everywhere you look lies nothing but chaos. Chaos and cameras.

Barricade is filled with an indistinguishable mix of both paparazzi and media from all over the world. Lights, whether from above or from cameras, flash in every direction that it's almost blinding. Deafening shouts pierce through your ears that whispering is impossible. You've been to as many red carpet events as these journalists and photographers, but you've never attended an event of this magnitude until now.

Left and right, there's a random celebrity being interviewed by a news junket. The women you spot are dressed to the nines, adorned in colorful and graceful garb, while the men are decked as if they're attending Sunday service. You can see it now: another round of fashion bloggers berating and cursing the men for their simplicity and lack of creativity, but that's to be expected.

Your phone vibrates from within your shirt pocket. It's Ryujin, having disappeared somewhere in the crowd.

> Where u at? 😤

You immediately reply back. Your conversations have been practice for your future relationship:

> Can't find you in this crowd

> Taylor Swift is just across me XD

> Scarlett Johannson too

> And I think I saw Zendaya and Yuna talking with each other, can't confirm though, they're far away

To which she answers:

> Stop playing around.

> Get over here NOW

> Do you style any of them?

> You don't.

> Come here. NOW.

It's a simple but strong warning. Aside from the fact that you're there to attend to Ryujin's needs and not larp as a celebrity, there's a change in her attitude during these events. She becomes strangely more attached. It's become a byword for you to mention other women around her, yet she interacts with them in a friendly light for the cameras to see.

Ryujin's preoccupied with what's presumably the umpteenth interview of many when you finally reunite with her. She takes another moment to pose for the next wave of cameras, picture perfect as always, then after, she finally turns her gaze, meeting yours. It has been ten minutes since her last text, and you have many reasons to say why you've vanished.

None of which truly matters.

"There you are." She says, glaring angrily at you, tone laced with contempt, sounding like you were gone for days.

"I can explain, Miss Shin," you try to say, but it has no effect as she approaches you, careful as ever to keep a picturesque facade in front of the media. You can see her holding herself back from popping a vein. "Apparently President Biden and his wife are in attendance and we were told to make way for his entire security team-"

The way Ryujin pulls you by the ear while you both retreat from the chaotic crowd is comical. In a sea of cameras and eyewitnesses, some tabloid's bound to catch you, take the unfolding scene out of context, and write a rushed article that spreads like wildfire, but no, it doesn't draw an ounce of attention. She's a small fry in a pond of bigger fish, after all. Over your corner, you see a dozen Secret Service slowly guide the president along the carpet, parting everyone around old Joe. In a way, watching him brings you to a strange realization: that you can empathize with the poor geezer. You're both in the same predicament, being strung along to places you have no zero interest in.

It's an effective distraction. An air of tense, awkward silence falls upon you both as you stare at each other, your personal conflict hidden away from the public eye. You open your mouth, about to say a word, and-

Whack!

Ryujin hits you with the hardest of palms, all her pent-up frustration released with a single, powerful smack of your cheek. The force echoes throughout the enclosed space like thunder. Your lips draw a little blood. A quick rub of your face reinforces the consequence for your actions. Rough. Still, to say she looks unhappy after enforcing her will upon you is an understatement.

And just when you try to open your mouth (without the intention to complain; you've given up at this point), she follows it up with a second slap, with about half the impact of the first. This time, the other cheek. Her gaze is scathing, lethal, hypnotic-as if challenging you to try her already short patience. Say something, motherfucker, is subtly etched on her expressive lips without the need to verbalize them.

Another tense moment of silence. She makes sure your eyes never leave her contact. When it finally breaks, her judgment echoes in your head like the toll of a death bell-a lingering reminder that you've truly fucked up.

"You'll be seeing me after tonight," she says, each word delivered like an arrow straight to your heart. Before facing the world again, she adds another devastating blow, "My hotel room. Midnight. Sharp."

-----

For the most part, in the eyes of the public, you seem to have done a fantastic job styling Ryujin for tonight's gala. Within hours of the event, numerous articles published of the event list her among the best dressed stars, praising the bold nature of her outfit, as she intended in that vlog-style video from earlier. It's all smiles as you watch her from afar, casually mingling with every celebrity in attendance. In case she needs to remain fresh, have new makeup applied, or change into a new dress for afterparty purposes-sometimes all of the above-you're closely on standby. Ultimately, she doesn't; not a single time she has called or texted for assistance. In a way, it's alarming.

Her reminder sticks firmly on the back of your mind. Every word she says, she means it-no matter how small or big they are. It lingers even as her personal driver and bodyguard messages you with the instruction to return to the car, where she's mysteriously absent, having been commanded by Ryujin herself to send you and the rest of her personnel home. It's uncharacteristically strange; either she's changed her mind and is having a good time at the event, or she's probably drunk out of her mind, and the latter is typically the norm.

When you retreat to your room, you nervously watch as the clock slowly ticks towards the inevitable. It's like witnessing your death. You know you can't stop it, and you can't look away, either. With the understanding that you'll likely see the sun rise when it's all said and done, you don't even bother to slip into your sleepwear.

The clock turns midnight. Seconds later, you receive a text on your phone. The message. It immediately disproves any theory or hope of meeting her good graces:

> Meet me in my room. Don't even think about hiding or running, cause I will know

Of course you comply; you really have no other choice.

Five minutes later, you're at her door again, with nothing but your suit, ready to face her judgment. It swings open of its own accord. Without any formalities, you step inside the familiar living room, now tidied up and cloaked in near darkness-a stark contrast to the mess it looked earlier in the day. Not a sign of her presence can be seen or felt. If you've been feeling uneasy before, now you're straight up anxious, and the terror leaves you pale.

The door slams shut. Now you're completely in the dark, with nothing to latch or cling to but your own resolve, which is slowly fading too. You want to speak her name, but you know you'll be trying fate again, and fate has dealt you a cruel hand already. You didn't want to fall even further.

Your slow breaths are the only sign of life.

And the faint voice in your ear.

Wait-

Before you know it, you feel your throat tense up and your body tremble frantically. Faint shadows coil around your waist and neck, and in that moment, your fate has been sealed.

"At least you're not late this time." Ryujin whispers into your ear. Then your eyes snap wide open.

"Agh!"

A powerful surge of pain overwhelms your entire body, renders you weak in the knees. You fall to the ground, barely keeping yourself from completely melting onto the carpet with your hands. Still, the pangs remain too much. You can barely hold up on all fours, let alone move your arms and legs.

It's not enough. A soft hand hovers across your arched back, brushes through your hair, before it's immediately followed by a direct blow to your nape. Your shout of agony reverberates throughout the dark room while you're forced further down on your knees. Nearly forced into a prostrate position, you're barely holding on. Another hit of this force could knock you unconscious, maybe worse.

"You're going to learn your lesson today," says Ryujin, strutting from behind you, cloaked in what appears to be a white gown. She's holding something that you can't identify, but you can tell she's not in the mood to play games. Sparks of electricity flash and fade close to her hand. It was a taser all along. You probably would have guessed that from the intense shocking pain you're currently feeling.

"Bedroom, slowpoke," she sternly commands you as she saunters toward the room first, leaving you alone to pick yourself up. You're still reeling from the two shocks of electricity applied to your waist and neck; it stings. Your body struggles, aches, cries out in despair, but you ultimately muster up enough power to follow her minutes later.

What greets you in the bedroom is a dimly lit bed, with Ryujin as its centerpiece, and both ends of her figure bathed in a faint wave of orange lamp light. She's draped in nothing but the same hotel-issued bathrobe from earlier, her legs crossed, gazing at you from behind designer shades, smirking with malicious intent. It's regal, seductive, inviting, intimidating. You honestly could stare at this sight all day long.

Before you entertain the thought, she cuts it off. "Strip."

Her gaze lingers as you quickly bare yourself in front of her. She grins, giggles, adjusts her glasses with each piece of clothing removed. It flashes at her widest when you've divested your shirt and your pants, revealing your chest and your evident bulge, unknowingly growing hard behind the elastic fabric. It seems to spark a new idea within her, even though she's the type of woman who follows through with her plans after they've been organized and premeditated.

She hops off the bed, slowly saunters toward you with trained, modellike fashion, using you as a makeshift catwalk. Turning the corner, she retreats behind your back, gripping a hand on your neck, craning the other down your bare chest. Her tongue tickles the back of your ear, which morphs into the smallest of smooches while she drags you to the bed like a hostage. As she hauls you over the mattress, she continues to feel your skin and body, your ears titillated by the gentle moans and whimpers from her sultry lips.

Your bump knees with the bed before she sends you flying over the edge. Temptation comes knocking at the door of your suppressed lips; you're itching to cry out in pain, pleading for a bit more consideration. You know it's a futile effort. When it comes to sex, Ryujin was anything but gentle.

"Don't look. Stay still."

Following her command is second nature to you; even when your positions were interchanged, it was merely an illusion-you were never in control. Ryujin plants a palm around your throat, forcing your stare against the bedrest. The clanging sound of something resembling a belt or a buckle keeps you curious. Tense, breaths keep you calm. Deep down, you know what's about to happen; there's no stopping it, you can only brace for impact.

In the gap between the point of no return, she tells you her mindstate, how her frustration and apparent jealousy never receded. "I hated every minute I spent there. You have no idea how difficult it was to keep a face in front of everyone, especially after seeing Yuna. Fucking. Yuna."

Your reaction comes out, not through coherent words, but through a labored groan. You feel her finger circle rings around your ass, sticky and wet. Of course she was there, social media couldn't stop buzzing about her appearance-and she rarely shows up to these galas. Now it's all making sense. After all, you were Yuna's stylist before Ryujin snatched you away.

Ryujin continues to apply lube around your sensitive hole, occasionally fingering you. Holding in the groans from the discomfort proves to be impossible, but she prefers to hear you whine, especially when her name is spoken. It's the perfect reprieve from the evening's frustrations, keeping her from raising her voice to the ceiling. "She pisses me off so fucking much. First stealing my thunder at every fashion week, now this? I thought she hated art galas?"

It's evident that she doesn't like Yuna in any shape whatsoever. If not for the cameras and all the famous people in the building, she'd already be trading blows with her. If there was any one person she wanted dead, it would have to be Shin Yuna. Of course, knowing this, you never included your time with her on your job application, let alone mention the fact you briefly spoke at the event behind her back. She was in an already spiraling mood, and you didn't need to make it even worse.

"I was thinking of using dildos for tonight, maybe just my fingers even, but I don't think it'll be enough. I really hope you understand." That last sentence-she sounds apologetic, remorseful, but the warning is ultimately shallow; she'll rough you up, wreck you, ruin you, and enjoy every moment of it. You're merely a blank canvas to her twisted fantasies.

"Oh, oh-fuck!" She cries out, joining your deep scream in harmony as she plunges the dildo into your warm, wet hole. This isn't your first experience on the receiving end of Ryujin's strap, yet every plunge feels as destructive and spine breaking as the first. No pleasantries or formalities, just apply the lube then hit. The idea of teasing you goes against her very blunt, assertive nature.

"Shit-oh fucking shit, you're so goddamn tight," she says, snaking a hand around your waist as her plastic dick slowly penetrates your hole, little by little. She has you grasping at pillows, staring at the ceiling then down to the sheets, until you find the twisted image of her hips slowly pounding against your ass, letting the pleasure of pegging overwhelm her. It should be excruciatingly painful, an agonizing reminder to never get on her wrong side, but no, there's something hot about getting dicked by a tough woman like her that arouses you.

Eventually, she comes to her senses, finds her footing, and remembers that she's meant to punish you, not reward you. She knows how good you make her feel, even if your cock is meant to be inside hers, not the other way around. You can't help speaking your mind, and it boosts Ryujin's ego to the moon. "Please. Fucking use me, Miss Shin. Fucking ruin my hole like how I ruin yours, miss."

Even upside down, you can see how visibly delighted she is to hear those words every single time. Can't hide that wide smirk plastered on her lips, no matter how upset she is. It's intoxicating. No matter how hard you're huffing, the pleasure she derives from using you keeps you going.

Slamming your eyes shut, Ryujin does what you both want. Fucks you with her dildo hard, clenches and quelches with each careful, intricate stroke. Sometimes you're in that position, taking her ass and ravaging her body as your own. Now it's her turn, and she's been taking after you. Between thrusts, she slaps your cheek, pulls on your neck and hair. You've built this alarmingly toxic work relationship, but the sex has never felt this invigorating, so cathartic. The perfect use of frustration to be channeled into something pleasurable and rapturous.

You've never seen Ryujin this focused, this committed to wrecking you. She's using your hole with such ferocity you think she'll make you bleed out. Behind those glazed, pleasure-filled eyes, she sees nothing but red. Difficult as it is, you follow a string of moans from her lips hidden beneath a continuous echo of groans from your end. It doesn't help that these walls are thin and everyone on this floor can hear your escapades.

Neither of you care. There's a good reason as to why she booked the whole floor to begin with.

The bed quakes, and quakes, and quakes-until it doesn't.

A puzzlingly calm fills the room after countless minutes pass. Ryujin's frantic breaths close the silent gap, having pulled the dildo from your hole. It's slick. You realize the change of pace.

"Miss Shin, why did you stop?"

She doesn't reply immediately. When she does, she's still catching her breath between spoken words. "I told you-it wasn't going to be enough. Lay down for me, will you?"

Without a second thought, you comply. This gives you an opportunity to truly see her in the flesh for the first time tonight. She's wearing a combination of corset and lingerie, her juicy thighs layered with lace garter. Hopping off the bed, she unbuckles the strap around her waist, tossing it aside to the floor. You then focus on her plump ass, accentuated by her slim thong.

Damn, she looks better now than she does naked. You feel proud that she's wearing your tailor-made lingerie.

Before you entertain the thought of undressing the very underclothes you've prepared for her, she slips the boxers off your ankles. She climbs onto the bed, stands atop you. Even with her short stature, in this position, she's larger than life, a dominating presence that only desires complete control.

"Hmm, I don't know what I should do. I could let you fuck me, but that doesn't sound right for a punishment," she comments, playfully placing a finger on her chin, jokingly thinking. For a brief moment, it does appear that she's stumped.

When the idea hits her, her eyes widen, and she has this self-conceited look, as if she's got it all planned out.

She reaches a hand down to her knee, slowly peels one of the stockings down to her ankles. Then she does the same for the other half. The way she positions both legwear on your cock is intentional; it's to stir the idea of pounding into her cunt a real possibility. Your gaze remains fixated on Ryujin's face, ever flawless in her scantily-clad figure, being her model self atop you.

As she tugs on the lace of her panties, you start reacquainting your mind with the image of her tight cunt. She lowers it, barely down her thighs, enough space to tease, enough to make your heart race. Her attention is nowhere close to you; she has other priorities, and fingering herself is one of them. She rubs a digit around her heat, moans out in ecstasy with the same energy as getting fucked. The trembles of her body send aftershocks that reverberate all over the bed.

It's already hot enough to get fucked by Ryujin's strap, but this-the sight of Ryujin pleasuring herself, mouth gaped wide open-is a hundred times better. This is the same reaction she has shown throughout the numerous times you've railed her, even though you've seen that face during sex. Against the mirror, against the water's reflection, against the tinted windows of her cars-her face serves as motivation that keeps you hard whenever she demands it. Your hands begin to move on their own, reach down to the groin unknowingly, unsure of whether she'd want you to masturbate or not.

You feel your hard cock, already partially soaked with precum, dripping on her garter. As much as you want to keep them on, you can't go against the deep seated urge to masturbate with her. Her foot begins to lean against your waist, right as you begin to stroke your shaft with your fingers. Moaning alongside her, you thrust your hips upward, passionately murmuring her name, with nothing but a singular thought: her pussy.

It's etched on your needy lips. "You're so sexy, Miss Shin. Please let me fuck you, God-"

She whines as though your hot breath is against her neck, growling a tone higher than normal. Her left foot is slowly clenching around your balls, the other at the bridge between your thigh and your crotch, gently nudging your free hand to move aside. She's beginning to apply pressure on you, perhaps a subtle gesture to make you stop and give way for her feet to take over, but you're engrossed in the moment to fully realize. Then again, subtlety isn't her speciality.

It's only when her foot presses down on your active hand that you slow to a complete halt. You gently rest her soles on your shaft, slowly wrap her soft toes around your tip. For the most part, their grip is shaky, but when they stick, they feel so slick, so warm, and significantly better than whatever effort your fingers can muster. She can't wear heels without a few kisses placed on them, you recall; something about being Cinderella growing up, how she prefers to be treated, to receive nothing but showers of praise and attention, and you're doing just that.

Her digits seemingly acknowledge what they're stepping on, and soon enough it becomes the perfect makeshift ring to stimulate your cock. Her toes just feel the best, most direct spots around your sensitive shaft, gradually building momentum for when you eventually paint her pretty feet. At least, that's the goal. You're both drowning in pleasure, chasing separate highs, but using each other's bodies as conduit for your own personal gain.

And it's not that she doesn't know; she knows. You've caught a glimpse of her half-lidded eye peeking down. She sees it, merely chuckles at the notion, and continues to finger herself atop your helpless body. Mutual trust brings you together; she won't stop you as long as you won't do the same to her.

"Yes, fuck, I'm gonna cum so hard," you say, breaths hurried, and it isn't a matter of if, but when. "Every part of you feels so good, Ryu."

You're past formalities at this point. She's too far gone to care that you've called her by her casual name. Her fingers, both slick and warm at once, are catching fire from the frenzied pace she's rubbing her clit, certain her dripping juices will find solace on your splayed figure. Racing with her orgasm, her underwear is halfway down her meaty legs, her very foundations shaking. Inadvertently pressing her foot tightly on your cock, she's holding on for dear life, and it threatens to steal your soul before you reach that immaculate high.

With friction at an all-time high, one rough, slippery slip between her toes, all while your loins burn , moving as if you're burying yourself deep in her cunt, eager to fill her with seed. The thin thread snaps. Sends you careening over the edge.

Your fall is accompanied by the endless scream of her name. To have your cock be graciously drained by her feet, it would be disrespectful not to. She's still going, chasing that high even as your cum geysers all over her feet, spills over your knees, your belly, on the sheets, as if her own slick didn't already make an utter mess of this five-star bed. You're mentally cheering her on, distracting yourself from the endless cascade of seed gushing beneath you.

This disastrous mess finds you again, this time in the form of Ryujin's orgasm. She orgasms, cries her loudest cry, her features at their most corrupted. Her pussy gushes like a rushing waterfall, completely soiling her legs and panties with her slick juices. Your groin manages to salvage whatever her thighs haven't absorbed, and it's a sticky pool that latches onto her dainty feet. When she steps off your cock, the squelch of wet seed splatters on the sheets until she touches the ground.

You both take some time apart, let the aftermath of your orgasms fizzle out. Ryujin assesses the damage to her body; she's still a model, after all. She hastily rids of the soiled underwear, treating it like some kind of contaminated object that can only be cleansed by fire. From the looks of it, she's committed something dangerous, and you've done something scandalous.

"Shit. We got carried away," you say, lifting your head from the bed, panicked.

"No. You got carried away," she replies, facing you with that familiar icy gaze. The honeymoon period is over. "Did I allow you to plant my feet on your cock? Huh?"

Swallowing your throat, you understand that she's technically right, but also, she most certainly enjoyed the feeling of stepping on you-something you can use against her. Still, Ryujin's word overrides all reasoning, no matter how logical they are.

You see her facade fall apart when she approaches you again. She climbs onto the bed like a cat, arches her back, and sends you back down to the mattress when she pounces on you. On her lips is the widest smirk you've ever seen on her.

She wants more.

Rising to her feet, she plants her toes directly on your chin, oozing with the remains of your cum mixed with hers. "You did this, now you'll clean it up."

As your tongue laps it up, she occasionally disrupts your rhythm by kicking you several times. Not that you're hurting her (you couldn't even if you tried) but for the delight of bringing you misfortune. It's completely in line with the typical abuse and inhumane treatment you face from her during work hours. You won't complain, but that was never in the cards, anyway.

"I can't believe my stylist is a complete freak. Fucking hell," she comments, glaring you down as you give her toe the occasional kiss. She's visibly disgusted by the realization sinking in, but deep down, she knows you're the exact stylist she's been looking for.

-----

And as if that's not enough, she's found a punishment perfectly suited for you.

"Just so you know, you're not getting paid after the stunt you pulled on me today," says Ryujin, in reference to your accidental disappearance during the red carpet. You're laid out on the floor, prone, your groans stifled by the living room carpet. Meanwhile, her feet tread all over your bare back at a steady tempo, leaving what could have easily been hickeys red marks and footprints on your skin.

"How long do I have left, Miss Shin?" you ask, voice almost indiscernible.

"About ten minutes," she replies, looking out the hotel room window, watching dawn slowly break over the Parisian sky. "Don't ever disappoint me again, do you understand? Freak."

(A/N: First commissioned work complete! Definitely exploring elements out of my specialty, did you expect her to peg OC? Fun dynamic to write, thank you for reading!)

(P.S. If you want to have your own story/idol written, you can send me a commission :D)

ACQUAINTED (RED VELVET YERI)

(Thank you for the commission! I hope it's to your liking.)

You're just about ready to head off to sleep when you check the group chat. This is your nightly tradition. These strangers, now your closest friends despite the anonymity, are active and in good spirits, as usual. Outside of your weekday 9-to-5, these few moments are the most interesting parts of your day, and you just so happen to join during a particularly lively conversation:

> [22:48:01] yerimiese: (posts a link to a red velvet album article)

> [22:48:14] flutter mane: :sanapog:

> [22:48:23] silksong sulker: k-pop is saved

> [22:48:33] wonyoung cockjuicer: ew red velvet

> [22:48:37] wonyoung cockjuicer: wonyoung can peg me tbh

> [22:48:39] irene's tokki: Bae J:floshedjiggle::floshedjiggle:hyun

> [22:49:06] milf hunter: :floshed:

> [22:49:11] milf hunter: gape sugalo

So of course, you chime in as well.

> [22:50:12] You: lets get it, new rv fancams

You're in no mood to chat for longer than five minutes, but before you head offline, you receive a private message from your closest friend:

> yerimiese: so when are you in korea again?

> You: Next week, why?

> yerimiese: nice. why don't we meet up, that would be dope as fuck

> You: You're in Korea?

> yerimiese: yeaaaah? why wouldn't i be?

> You: I thought you'd be doing other schedules abroad

> yerimiese: nah sm definitely won't fly us out to film an mv. cheap ass bastards ㅋㅋㅋ

Yerimiese then sends you a video link. It's a Yeri fancam, her weapon of choice. Your conversations began with small, intimate talks about your personal life, soon transpiring into open fapping, degrading, and casual lewdness with each other. Despite the usually depraved nature of your messages, you both continued sharing snippets of your day to day lives. That's how close you've grown as friends.

> You: Well i'm very tired, today was a long day at work, had to work overtime. No time to lewd, sorry

> yerimiese: it's alright. you did well today

Yerimiese sends you a pic this time. It's an event; the internet can't load any quicker. You're hungry, impatient, dying. Whether it's intentional or not, the photos she sends whenever you're tired or stressed out are hotter than her usual swimsuit or photoshoot reel. You've shared enough about your daily routine to her that a camera crew might as well be recording you.

It's nothing out of the ordinary; a simple candid pic of herself lying in bed, her face perfectly cropped out of the background, showing nothing but her body on full display in front of the huge mirror, dressed in skimpy black panties and a white shirt that accentuates her shapely breasts. As usual, she's not wearing a bra; you can clearly see her hard nipples demanding all of your attention.

> yerimiese: no need to send a dick pic tonight if you don't feel like doing it

You can't help it. Tired as you are, you feel obligated to send her one. Luckily, every pic she sends is more than enough to make you instantly hard. It feels more guilty not to be turned on, rather.

It's a mostly quick and painless affair, powerful enough to put you out of commission within minutes. Even though you're mentally checked out, Yerimiese's sexy body is too hot not to crank one out. Taking a pic of your erect cock as you pump yourself to her is second nature; sending it on sticky fingers after you've spurted all over your phone and blankets is a different story. There's no other way to put it, she was the perfect reprieve from the day's exhaustions-a perfect high note to go out on.

> yerimiese: fuck you're THROBBING THROBBING tonight :ningasm: your dick looks so damn nice. i can taste your cum through the screen

> You: Happy now?

> yerimiese: more than, and then some. I wish you were here right now so you could feel how wet I am

> You: Just wait. I can't wait to fuck you hard. Goodnight

> yerimiese: goodnight

> yerimiese: :tukkwithkiss:

-----

The next time you're able to communicate with her, you're one day away from being in Korea. In that period, you've been inactive in the group chat because work. What welcomes you back is a barrage of lewd photos and Yeri fancams.

> yerimiese: see you tomorrow :chuupeek:

It's an open secret that you know she's Kim Yerim. Yes, that Kim Yerim of Red Velvet fame. It was a giveaway right from the first explicit photo she sent you; those tits in a tight, petite package couldn't have belonged to anyone other than hers. That, and the fact that her username is the same as her Instagram handle, and that she has a photo of herself in the group as a display pic. How she would end up stumbling into your private K-pop server objectifying her body and her profession is one of life's biggest mysteries, yet here she is, giving you a very personal look into her shapely figure, better than any fancam and photoshoot could ever provide. To others, she's merely a casual acquaintance, but to you, she can freely open up herself.

Mainly because you're one of three people in the group chat that still cares about Red Velvet.

Her latest sent photo is relatively tame; a tight fitting white silk sundress, and the skirt is virtually nonexistent, her panties practically out in the open. Luckily for you, she seems to be sitting down, but not in her usual living room. The notion that this is what welcomes you to Korea, that you'll be balls deep inside an idol's pussy right when you land-it ruins you.

Almost.

An airport guard manages to break your deep train of thought. "Sir! No phones please," he sternly commands, saving you from total disaster; you're inches away from walking straight through a metal detector with your phone in hand, the belt around your pants, and some spare coins lying deep in your pocket after you bought some traditionally expensive bottled water. Luckily, no one manages to see the photo-and even if they did, she's still smart enough to cut out her face, leaving nothing else to your imagination.

If there's one thing you've learned about immigration and airport security, it's that there's little need for repetition. You go through security four times. At the entrance, after the check-in counter, then within your departure gate, and even before boarding your flight-repetitive. It's frustrating enough to tell Yerim, to which she responds with more lewd photos of herself.

> yerimiese: yeah ive been there before ㅋㅋㅋ

> yerimiese: how long's ur flight?

> You: About 13 hours

> yerimiese: cali?

> You: Yes

> yerimiese: kinda random, but seulgi misses los angeles

> You: How come?

> yerimiese: something about an ex-boyfriend that i didn't know about until the other day ㅋㅋㅋ i bet she'll be jealous when she hears about you coming over just to clap my cheeks ㅋㅋㅋ she'd wish it was her bf instead of you

> You: does she know about this?

> yerimiese: of course not LOL i bet you'd rather fuck her instead of me, so she'll never know. smh.

> You: That's not true ur my RV bias since day one!

> yerimiese: stop lying LMAO i don't blame you tho seulgi has some really toned legs and a nice slappable ass XD anyway, i'm gonna send you something to pass the time while ur onboard

> You: If it's a masturbating clip i swear to god

> yerimiese: fuck you got me LOL

> You: Goddamit if anyone finds out on a plane of all places…

> yerimiese: i still can't get over your clip of you jerking to me. i can taste your dick. you're depriving me by leaving me out to dry for a week ㅋㅋㅋ

> You: You've been touching yourself to that clip for a week??

> yerimiese: can't help myself, album prep has been tiring and i haven't really found any opportunity to relax in the meantime

> You: I'll be there soon, just wait a bit longer

> yerimiese: can't trust me with that, i'm very close to making a huge mess of my hotel room ㅋㅋㅋ

> You: You're in a hotel?

> yerimiese: just to meet you! I won't be able to meet you at the airport (duh, idol dating shit), so this is the next best thing. just message me when you've landed here, okay?

> You: Sure

-----

It's ingrained deep within Yerim's mind. A core memory. If her phone could present count how many times she's played the clip, it would be over a thousand.

It's very straightforward. A 45 second clip of someone masturbating between the sheets, pressing their erect cock against their phone with a brightened image of a scantily clad woman on the screen. But it's not just any woman, it's her. She's pleasuring herself to the idea of a man jerking off to her. She's following his rhythm, timing the pace her fingers rub her clit to the tempo of the man's cock pumping to her zoomed-in breasts.

And she's mere minutes removed from a conversation with that exact same person.

Slumped against the hotel room walls, her bliss spirals out of control rapidly. Her legs are instinctively spread wide, juices already leaking through her panties and spilling to the floor; that's how used they are to Yerim's impulses to pleasure herself. In those brief moments, she imagines how the next few days play out, skipping past the formalities and pleasantries and going straight to the fucking. She moans and shouts as if that very man's cock is penetrating her pussy hard at this very moment. Her other hand bashes the wall, tongue screaming streams of profanities, as if he's manhandling her, using her to his personal delight.

"Fuck! Suck those fucking tits!" she screams, slipping one strap of her sundress down to pinch her own tit, enhancing the illusion. Her phone rings; in her mind it's functionally a vibrator. He's come fully prepared, and she's riding high knowing that this person is doing exactly what he said in their private messages from the very start.

Yerim drags her fingers along her clit violently, desperate to reach climax, the realization that this is her third orgasm of the day way beyond her. The evidence can be found everywhere: on the soiled bed sheets and in the smell of the shower; she envisions herself getting railed in those parts of the room, and then some-essentially turning the entire hotel room into the backdrop for all of the things he'd do to her: fingers around her throat, sunk into her ass, until it's red and hurting, the way she'd quiver and cream all over his throbbing cock. Her neediness has no limits; it even breaks past her very own personal quarters, the loudness of her own self-induced pleasure drawing concern from occupants nearby.

Only after the blissful haze of orgasm does everything fall back in place. That repetitive knock on the door is a huge wake up call. Yerim's eyes widen.

"Shit."

She checks her fingers-they're coated in copious amounts of slick-and after a little further inspection, she realizes the aftermath.

"Shit. Shit. Shit."

-----

Being honest about yourself, you couldn't have asked to feel hornier at a worse time than this. Thirty thousand feet high up in the air, stuck in economy class because you don't get paid enough to deal with the bullshit back in the office. Using your one of two allowed leaves in the year for a trip to see a girl you've mostly known online, and it isn't even paid. To make things worse, there's no layovers-just a point-to-point flight from San Francisco to Seoul. 13 hours.

And boy, is the ride absolutely miserable.

By what you might as well call divine intervention, you're conveniently seated between a nun and a little girl-the two worst kinds of people to be alongside with. No, not because they're annoying or anything like that; aside from the girl getting up every thirty minutes from her window seat to get something from her parents across the aisle, you're practically barred access to your glorified archive of lewd Yerim pics. Opening them up with a kid barely in the first grade beside you is openly asking for trouble.

And the few times you get up for a lavatory break, you can't get yourself going. There's always someone at the door every five minutes.

Eight hours deep into the flight, you look over your shoulder, catch one of the male flight attendants sneak inside one of the vacant lavatories with a fellow stewardess while everyone's fast asleep. Fucking sickening. That should be you with Yerim right now.

When you arrive on the other side of the planet, you've gotten only a couple hours' worth of sleep. You almost fumble your passport at immigration, getting them mixed up with a slew of business and membership cards. Then there's your forgetfulness working against you, remembering you need some kind of pocket Wi-Fi, and now you have to spend a little more to get back online. It's a mess, and it wasn't that long since you were in Europe for a seminar, where these things were merely second nature to you.

At least you remembered that VPNs exist. You message Yerim on the taxi ride out of the airport, unsure of where to begin.

> You: Just got out of immigration

> yerimiese: fuckin finally!

> yerimiese: you got a place to stay here?

> You: Not yet

> yerimiese: don't bother, lemme send you my hotel address, you can stay here

Of course you don't know Korean, despite the constant back and forth with Yerim for months. Learning's been on the backend of your itinerary, and has never been your top priority, even now. You show the cab driver the address, who merely looks at you and the phone with a particularly vacant and dumbfounded expression, as if you're stupid for not planning this out-which, in that regard, he'd be correct.

When you finally arrive at the hotel, only one message stands between you and finally meeting Yerimiese, once and for all.

> yerimiese: I'll be at the poolside, third floor. can't wait to meet you :P

And that's exactly where you end up going. Forget that you're lugging two whole bags and a traveler's backpack on your shoulders; you drop them off at the front desk, expecting the staff to have a clue of what's going on and what's about to happen.

Stepping out into the poolside, it's a completely barren sight. It's three in the afternoon on a Tuesday; most people probably aren't even booked, let alone in this supposed five-star hotel. You don't really question whether she's being serious or not, the evidence was in the previously sent photos; you're dying to meet her at this point.

And as if perfectly timed for dramatic effect, a woman emerges from beneath the waters, shaking off the wetness from her damp hair.

Yerim casually swims over the deep waters' edge, without a care in the world, let alone your presence quietly shadowing over the large pool. Even halfway submerged, you can make out the outline of her shapely bust and hourglass figure, tightly hugged by a pink swimsuit. She was sultry and intoxicating to gawk at from candid photos, but seeing Yerimiese herself in the flesh, that's when the realization hits you: this is happening.

And you can't move a muscle, let alone react from the actualization that you're right in front of her. Even as the waves of water splash on your new loafers, you simply observe. It's creepy, it's morally dubious, but it's one in a million. You're taking in every moment, every second; soak it all in, you'll never get an experience like this ever again.

You should be friends by now, if your definition of friendship means sharing explicit body photos and exchanging devious intentions about how you'll fuck each other online or how much cum you've given to each other. But when she turns in your direction-catching you casually observing her, your hands tucked away in your coat's pocket, grinning like a little kid- it's back to square one.

Like the very first time.

Yerim takes all the time in the world to wade over from the other side of the pool, her smile growing closer as she approaches you. She lifts her eyebrows, expecting you to make a first move, to which you barely open your mouth, and ultimately only a deep breath, a stilted sigh, comes out.

Well, this is awkward.

Yerim giggles. You've previously heard her loud moans and cries, but a genuine laugh-this was your first. She never hops on calls in your group chat, most likely because idol shit, as she often refers to her line of work. Her laughter, her energetic expression-it's as perfect of a translation to real life as it is online, and embodies the idol Yeri you know on screen.

"How long have you been standing there?" she asks, trying-and failing-to suppress more of her laughter.

Your answer is concise, but doesn't seem quite right. "A while."

In reality, about five minutes. You probably won't be there any longer when she props herself out of the water with her strong elbows. Water cascades down her shapely figure, thicker and meatier than it's ever been, more than what the cameras and pictures present. She's truly the entire package, through and through.

She walks over to her sunlounger, granting you a nice peek of her ass peeking through her skimpy swimsuit before she wraps herself with a towel. Apart from that, your only other notable observation is that she's soaking wet, even bundled up. That, and also: she's barefoot. No sign of slippers or any footwear-she willingly walked on what appears to be scorching cobbled floors.

"I would give you a big hug right now, but you know-" she comments, looking down at her drenched self, pool water endlessly dripping down to her feet. Even if she isn't soaking wet, you'd still be frozen in place, or even worse, some eagle-eyed stranger or Dispatch reporter catch you in secret and you both end up on national news the very next day.

"Yeah, yeah, it's fine," you say, trying to dodge Yerim's eyes. "I left my stuff at the front desk. I should probably go and grab them."

"Smart." Yerim sizes you up, nodding in amazement at how you've managed to get yourself past the entrance. "See you upstairs, then? Room 1015."

-----

The difference between you and Yerim couldn't be any more obvious.

Granted, you're fresh off a 13 hour flight, followed by an hour's travel from the airport to a five-star hotel in the heart of Seoul. Yerim had all the time in the world to prepare, and yet when she emerges from the bathroom in nothing but a modest bathrobe and her dark hair bundled up, she's never looked better.

Facing an idol in such a haggard condition, it gives you an underlying feeling of shame. And if you're being completely honest, if not for your cock, she'd probably be repulsed and call security on you.

But there's no security in sight. Just you, just yeri, the two of you standing in this room - which is, for the most part, quite nice. Multiple bedrooms, a lovely view of the city beneath you, and all sorts of amenities and features you'll never get to use-you half expect her members to come in later, but perhaps for your sake, you're better off with just her and her alone.

When Yerim begins to talk, she rambles. She goes on about the status of the next album, discussions about a possible solo debut, her relationships with her members-conversations about topics that you never really had online. It was mostly dirty talk and lewd captions. At best, you knew each other at a surface level, but here she is, sharing everything from her heart like you've been lifelong friends since day one.

You let her. She's as charismatic as what she portrays on screen, and her sass is no different than the private messages she sends you. There's not a single dull moment whenever Yerim speaks. Though you know her mostly for her body, her personality is what has you sticking around.

You wonder if she feels the same way about you.

"So, how'd you find out about us?" Yerim asks, after blabbering for a while, and you genuinely believe she'd keep going till nightfall. Close enough. Five minutes away from five in the afternoon, and you'd already spent the last hour and a half listening to a personalized podcast from her. You hope she doesn't notice the plate of bulgogi on the table now completely empty.

"Well, a friend was a K-pop fan and had an extra ticket when you toured here," you say, casually, slumped on the sofa. "Forgot how long that was-" you pause, "five years ago?"

"Five years? Five years since we went to America?" Yerim appears flabbergasted, face in utter disbelief at the passage of time. The realization causes her to stand from her chair. You'd be too after listening to her drone on endlessly. "Fuck."

"SM! Give us a fucking world tour already!" she screams, pretending she's inside the company building and you're an executive in the room. Watching her snarkiness come to life never ceases to amuse you. You'll let her go on for as long as she needs to; she's entertaining in such a unique and charming way that it disarms you.

"Argh, sorry, you know me." She suddenly stops, faces you, arms crossed, mocking up a pout. "Look at me suddenly losing my shit for no good reason."

"Are your members used to this?"

That didn't come out right.

She bats an eyelid. On her face is a mild, blank look of displeasure. That didn't come out right.

"Used to what?"

"Well, uh, I-I mean-"

You gulp your throat.

"Stop."

Then, an air of awkward silence. Her eyes quickly scan you, lazing on the sofa.

"Let's just get to fucking each other right now."

-----

It isn't that you've forgotten the one purpose you're there to begin with, it's that Yerim is very, very impulsive. One moment, upset at her company for doing the bare minimum for her group and her career, the next she's using you as an outlet to release her frustrations. It's a good thing your first impression of her was that she was very busty, because otherwise, the other description you had of her was-simply put-bratty.

You're on your back, plopped against one of the beds, completely caught off-guard by her show of strength. Eyes rolled to the back of your head, you find Yerim already at the bed's edge, loosening the belt around her waist, quickly disrobing herself within seconds. It's nothing new; you've seen glimpses of her nude figure in pictures, imagined many scenarios where you've got your hands on her, but this-to see her completely bare in the flesh-is new.

This is different.

"Just so you know," you mutter, frantically panting, your heart jumping, as Yerim undresses in front of you, "I haven't actually had sex before."

Just like that, the mood instantly changes. She stops. Abruptly.

"What?"

Her mouth drops-again. Might as well stay agape.

You consider retracting your statement. It was a joke, you'd say, something to get her even more aroused, fired up. The sex would be wilder, hotter than anything your fantasies would conjure. Then again, you wouldn't be in this exact situation if you weren't so chronically online, simping over pop idols like a kid about to enter puberty.

"I guess that's to be expected," she comments, snarkily, grabbing the edges of your pants, daring to rip them off you. "That's fucking life, baby!"

If you were in her shoes, obsessively waiting for someone with equally unhinged horniness, expressing precisely how you'd get fucked every single time you'd send a remotely lewd photo, you'd feel just as disappointed. You can tell by her partially scornful expression: she's been fantasizing this moment as much as you have, too. You can't blame her, but you kind of expected her to anticipate this; after all, you connected in a private group chat that's been sexualizing her, of all places.

Surely the signs of virginity were right there.

"At least this is real," she says, leaning her head forward while cupping your growing bulge poking through your trousers. Your tip, at full mast, mere inches away from her chin, instead of a little phone screen. She's pushing you around, growing slightly more mischievous and uncontrollable with the prospect of throwing someone like you around instead of the opposite. Something her members may have taught and ingrained in her.

It isn't quite the picture you expected from all the erotic snapshots and clips she's been sending you. Every photo and video, designed to rouse the filthiest and wildest of your thoughts, was an act, a ruse to let your guard down, to give you this fixed headcanon that you can toss her around like she's your personal plaything and object of pleasure. Instead, she's using you for her own desires and wants.

It's not that you don't want her to use you and fuck you like this, it's how completely in control she is that has you reeling, leaves you in a dizzy spell.

"I was gonna let you use my pussy and fuck me to ruin," she says, playfully rolling her eyes, teasing and mocking. Her hand grips around the denim of your bulge, and it fucking stings. You're sucking on loose air. "But since we have a virgin over here, I'm gonna do whatever I want."

The implied connotation is what terrifies you, and no, it isn't the revelation that Yerim isn't a virgin-you assumed that much-but the notion that you were gonna have free reign over her cunt that has you contemplating some deep, long forgotten life decisions that set you back years. Their consequences are now starting to show.

She releases her ironclad grip on your pants, frees you of your obstructive clothing, both trousers and boxers down to the floor. Your hard cock springs free, terribly aching, already red and sore from her suffocating clench, and already leaking bursts of precum. The last day and a half hasn't been kind to your cock.

To add insult to injury, she makes this licking motion with her tongue, aimed at your tip, but relents at the last minute. It leaves your throbbing cock aching harder, without any point of relief. The teasing sight almost renders you unconscious, and sends Yerim into a laughing frenzy.

"Remember when I said I could taste your cock?" she says, chuckling. It's not playful in the slightest-quite the opposite, in fact. It's sinister. "I'll wait a little longer to taste it. Don't worry."

Not the most reassuring of words, especially when you've got your hands tied-at least, not yet. Actually, you appreciate that she isn't going to milk your cock dry just yet; when you finally look past the situation at hand, you come to treasure her chest. Her shapely chest, freely bouncing while she bounces her thick body on your lap-keep doing that, you say inside your mind, letting your wandering gaze soak in the unreal scene.

She notices your intrigued eyes, rising and falling in rhythm with her tits. Subtlety was never your intention, and she probably knows from experience, as she says she does. Fixated attention is how she gets herself off, based on how she seems to respond to the lewd messages you've sent her in the past, and it shows when she repeats some choice remarks back to your face:

"I'd kill my boss to fuck those tits right now, you're so goddamn sexy."

She grips a hand around your throat, another down to the buttons of your shirt, pulling them apart.

"Let me be your personal titty towel."

Halfway there.

"I'd suck on your tits first, go down on your delicious pussy, then fuck that wet hole of yours three times straight."

Just like that, you're both even. Equal in nakedness.

You're unsure whether it's the sight of Yerim asserting her dominance over you, tits all up in your face with a devious smirk as she bares you down to your essentials that's leaving you short on air, or if it's the hand cautiously coiled around your neck. Either option seems sensible enough. This is how she lives in your head rent free, just being her sassy, sexy self. Even repeating some of the same particularly questionable lewd things you've written to her sounds hot with her brazen tone.

"You're enjoying this, aren't you?" she raises an eyebrow, leaning her head close, as if demanding an answer.

Really, there's no multiple choice here. Of course you nod.

She rolls her hips upward, inches her body across yours little by little, til her dripping pussy completely shadows your view. Her hand grabs the back of your head, meaty thighs pressing between your face. Now you're truly suffocating. Even with the rather shameful admission, she rolls her crotch on your lips, expecting you to know what to do. No words, just the expectant grind of her crotch on your face, her wet folds opening up for you to take them.

Then, she begins moaning.

Admittedly, the closest you've had to trying out oral is using your phone as an outlet for your tongue whenever she sends a boob photo. Thankfully, your inexperience doesn't show when you first dip your tongue inside her folds, getting your first taste of pussy. Saltier than you expected, but fuck, you'd be lying if you think it wasn't completely intoxicating-everything you hoped for, and more.

It incites a few expressive reactions from Yerim-some loud, others quieter-with the end result usually a sharper, deeper grind of her waist on your face, splaying her cunt for you to devour. You've got one hand pressed on her ass, holding her plump flesh down while the other is at her mercy, pulled by hers, forced to squeeze her breast. You won't complain. Not when her cries of pleasure motivate you to push yourself harder.

You repeat this addictive cycle, stretch moments into minutes, minutes into hours. Even when you've drained her completely, you'll still be craving for more of her; that's how hungry she's made you. Your tongue meets her clit, and it draws out this especially sharp whine that she's never hit once. Not on a track. Not anywhere. She swears up a storm, juxtaposed between soft, gentle pleas of "yes, more, and you're so good."

In return, you take more of her, soak yourself in the continuous downpour of her slick juices freely flowing all over your mouth and tongue. As her pleasure escalates, her fingers tighten their grasp on your head, grab your tousled hair. You add soft, intimate kisses between streaks of licking her folds, and they send the young idol writhing, shaking atop you. Her words have been reduced to nothing but short, needy bursts of "please." Even in this uncontrollable state, she gyrates her hips around you, rhythm steady, but more determined than ever to let herself go.

By the way her pussy throbs, you're certain she's a few critical points away from climax. It doesn't change your plans, not one bit. You continue to lap at her sensitive folds, bask in her intoxicating heat, purposefully teasing her clit. She won't demand that you end her -not this quickly, not when you've magically learned the art of giving oral to a woman under short notice.

You slowly work her through it. Your tongue dives into her slick entrance, deeper than it's ever been so far. The overpowering sensations send ripples that reach even the foundations of the bed, unlike anything it's ever felt. Even in the wild throes of bodily pleasure, Yerim has enough willpower to stay in character, delivering a demand in her usual playful, fast talking tone. "Please do it! I'm going to cum!"

You contemplate the thought, completely drunk in her divine taste yourself, but you oblige.

Your tongue sticks to her bud, and it causes this instantaneous, elaborate chain reaction. Yerim cries a sharp cry, waves of orgasm washing down all over her body. She stops in her tracks, completely rigid, mouth wide open, and this torrential gush of slick and orgasm swamps you, drowning you so deep that it's nearly fatal. Her thighs involuntarily clench tighter, too, and you're temporarily trapped in your own pocket dimension, impossible to clean with all the cum left behind, especially on the sheets.

The most surprising observation from her orgasm is how suddenly calm it becomes. Only the sound of your tongue licking her clean can be heard, and it's nothing but a gentle rustle. She hangs her head up, face completely flushed, catching needed oxygen in her lungs, letting the aftermath of her climax pass over.

While her breath normalizes, she lifts herself up, moves to the side of the bed. In her wake, she's left behind a drenched lake of slick around your face, leaking down to the muddled sheets beneath you.

"Well," she says, panting and pausing for air. "There goes the other bed."

It doesn't take rocket science to figure out what she meant. Even when you're still mindlessly occupied by the sticky residue around your lips. You let out this muffled exhale, designed to be a laugh, but it backfires in your face. Amused, she giggles on your behalf.

"Not bad." Yerim smiles at you. Charming and cute, a contrast to what had just transpired. "I thought you said you never had sex?"

It takes you a moment before you answer back, "I haven't. You just taste really good."

"You still have some left on the edges of your face," she comments, her eyes mesmerized by how much she's cum all over you. "Let me help you clean that up."

And she helps, but not in a conventional way. She lifts you from the bed by your torso, then submerges you again, this time at the mercy of her bosom. You've got your arms wrapped around her waist while you're kissing and sucking on her Yerim's tits, not exactly tidying up, but creating a larger mess that no amount of tongue cleaning can resolve.

In the meantime, she whispers in your ear some of your more-questionable-comments:

"They need to give her a solo debut with a very sexy concept and trust me, I'll be the guy who breaks the world record for jerking off if they do that."

"It must feel heavy to carry them all the time. Let me lend a hand to you."

"The only thought I had inside my mind when I saw her is every member would milk her 3x a day so that they don't have to go outside and buy milk to eat cereal to the point they would just drink it from the source."

You stop. You give her this strange, confused look. Even you couldn't believe you said that.

"Did I actually say that?"

"Yes!" she replies, quick and straightforward, unable to hide her enthusiasm, while brushing your hair. "Not gonna lie, that sent me to the floor. I was laughing so hard, Irene ran in to check up on me!"

To make things worse, she flashes this wide, toothy grin that makes you regret your life choices.

"God. I don't wanna drink anymore."

"Hey, if there's any consolation, you wouldn't be sucking on my tits and eating me out now if you never made that comment," she says, caressing your chin and giving you a peck on the lips. As if it's still not one of the most out of pocket comments you've ever made about anyone, let alone a celebrity-and you weren't fully yourself.

"Relax. Don't think about it too much." Yerim pushes you back down to the bed, crawls atop you, meeting your lips again for an intimate kiss. Your hard cock, which has been left unattended for quite a while, captures your attention-and especially hers. "Lean back for me, will you?"

You comply. Involuntarily, your legs straighten, but Yerim pushes them apart, places herself at center view, seemingly ready to take you in her mouth. It makes sense; a woman with a mouth that runs like hers probably only stops when there's cock stuffed inside them. The theory proves to be plausible when she gives your sensitive tip a delicate, yet dangerous lick, her eyes glinting at you with renewed vigor and lust.

"I told you I'd have a taste of that cock," she says, half smug, half seductive, gloating with her brows. Your tenseness slightly recedes-until you realize your cock's moving past her lips, in the direction of the space between her cleavage. "I didn't say I wanted to suck on it."

And she was right-not once has she ever expressed her desire to choke, gag, deepthroat on it.

You grit your teeth, watching your cock disappear between her shapely tits, with Yerim personally making sure you comfortably fit like a glove. You fold. It's snug. Hot. Breathtaking.

"Fuck, Yeri," you mutter, closing your eyes as her inviting warmth leaves you weak in the knees, trembling. You don't realize you've used her stage name over her real name. "God-"

"Does this feel like everything you wanted?" she asks, tone sultry and triumphant. A little slide up sends you into a frenzy.

You nod-even though there's no other available options. The erotic image in front of you is permanently seared into your head: Kim Yerim, popular idol and to an extend, your 'friend with benefits,' grinning like a maniac, slowly fucking your cock between her tits, coated with your saliva, sweat, and copious amounts of precum. To think your little crude messages on a random forum would have such long term and drastic consequences such as this.

Not that you'd want to make sense of it all, especially when she gets into a rhythm. Sliding her breasts up and down, she's delicate, intentional, and masochistic; you're on the receiving end of how she felt when you were slowly eating her out. She's dangerous, teetering between the line where your cock can be safe between her bosom and where she can break you in half. You're already falling apart-and fast.

"Holy shit, Yerim. Fuck."

Each word you deliver is long and drawn out, especially the profanities. Heavenly music to her ears. She's out of reach where you can pull by her hair, so you settle for the sheets instead. Your gaze wanders, travels everywhere but in her direction, because you don't need to see the tortuous scene happening between your legs. Looking at the descending sun, this is probably the last time you'll see the sun set in your life.

Her eyes challenge you to look at anywhere from her. Panting frantically, you find yourself at the mercy of Yerim's whims, your cock fading and swelling into view, sticky and wet, gushing cum all over her tits. The sight drives you further mad, has you making sounds that have never been recorded-ever. She takes you in, delights in your suffering, eager for you to say the magic words.

"Ready to cum? I know you want to cum."

Even under duress, you're not ready to fold just yet. There's a little stubbornness inside you fighting back, pulling all the stops to keep you from surrendering to Yerim's demands. You close your eyes, grip on the sheets even tighter, control your breathing, but it's too little too late. You can only do so much with two hands.

"Cum for me."

You hold onto a particularly deep breath, desperate to cling to whatever dying vestiges of control there is left, but your fate has already been sealed from the moment you've allowed your cock to enter her chest.

"Yerim, I-"

The exhale you release is the most relieving and satisfying. With it, comes out a rope of thick, creamy cum splashed all over her neck and chest. The aching, violent sensation doesn't stop; more seed spills between the warmth of her cleavage. In one fell swoop, you feel all of your energy sapped from you, leaving you completely weak and powerless.

In the gap between your climax and post-orgasm haze, you wonder if she'll take some of your cum in her mouth, with the way she looks at your cock as it throbs beneath her chin. No. She lets it drip down her perfect naked body with a sticky white sheen that glows under the natural light piercing through the hotel's window.

"Just like that, hm," she comments, casually flicking the last of your withering orgasm and cum with her wrist. She lathers the slick on her fingers on her shoulder, then places some into her mouth for a taste.

After you regain a semblance of normalcy-after Yerim's finished entertaining herself with your cum, staring at her coated body and fingers with curious interest-she rests her elbows on your knees, in the process of relearning how to bend. You sink back against the headrest, watch as the fading sun glimmers on an idol like her, destined to shine for every occasion possible-on the stage and under the afterglow of sex. She smiles, bright and wide, taking you in, as you are.

There's something brewing, especially in the tender few minutes that follow. Something special, something more than just a spark.

"So-" Yerim runs a sticky finger on your knee, dangerously close to stirring up your cock again. "You wanna try anal with me next?"

You pause. Widening your eyes, staring back with a look of disbelief. Just when you're about to open your mouth to reply, she adds:

"Kidding. You do know that you're gonna have to delete those tweets and comments, right? If they find out you're here, you're fucked. And I mean, a thousand times worse than now."

(A/N: This was an absolute joy to write. The nature of the request meant I could go very meta with it. About time we get a proper Red Velvet full album, so perfect timing! If you're able to figure out some of the references and easter eggs, then you, my friend, are too engrossed in the Tumblr K-pop male reader smut lore. Thank you for reading!)

Thank you for the commission! I hope it’s to your liking.

“What the?”

What welcomes you inside the bedroom takes you by complete surprise. It’s the kind that leaves you with more questions than answers. She had been very vague about the whole ordeal, skittering around the details. she was completely straightforward about one thing: to get fucked. That’s the main selling point.

Her inviting tone, her sultry expression, her lust—it’s still freshly imprinted on your mind from an hour ago. You’ve heard those words—their many variations—a handful of times, but hers is by far the most enticing and the sweetest sounding:

“Wanna have sex with me tonight?”

—————

Admittedly, it was never on your bucket list to attend a concert, let alone a group who sings primarily in foreign. It was supposed to be just a kind gesture for a roommate.

He’s your resident nerdy K-pop fan, the kind that gets bullied in real life and on the internet. He’s the full package; posters on the bedroom wall, a book full of photocards, and a shelf of albums and lightsticks which he considers as his sacred temple. You were never meant to go beyond a toe’s dip into this unhealthy obsession he’s engrossed himself in; completing his homework was enough exposure. 

If there was one takeaway from your observations, it was quite obvious: the girls are really hot. And that’s all that you needed to convince yourself to go. 

Besides, you were his roommate—and his only friend. Out of the kindness of your heart, you have an obligation to be there for him, at least until you graduate.

For the most part, the show was entertaining. Again, the girls were pretty attractive, and they were dressed in outfits that flaunted their bodies exceptionally well. Your friend’s relentless screaming accustomed you to the crowd’s energy, which was no joke. Even in a small, intimate venue, there were several moments where you felt that the place might collapse off the audience’s deafening shouts alone. At least you came prepared with noise canceling earplugs.

It’s not a huge surprise when he suddenly vanishes after the show. He’s been in and out of sight the whole time; getting freebies, merch shopping, taking numerous bathroom breaks, to the point where he just straight up forgets he left his phone with you before running off again. 

To make things worse, it’s the dying moments of the night, when everyone in the VIP section, the two of you included, gets to greet the members for only a brief passing moment. He’d been acting like his entire life has been building to this moment, completely neglecting the fact you were his ride home. 

Of course you’re not entirely sure about who’s who in this group. Six equally pretty girls, all wearing the exact same shirt and short skirt combination, down to the colors, with equally warm smiles. You didn’t have enough time to familiarize yourself with each of their names; the internet in the area has been failing you for hours. The staff was strict with phones the closer you approached them. It didn’t help that everyone screamed through their introductions, too.

Unsurprisingly, nothing substantial came of your interaction. A series of repetitive, awkward bows and near-silent whispers of “hello.” You’ve been putting off Duolingo for months, and it showed. It should have been a forgettable affair, considering the hundreds of people they’re greeting just from tonight’s queue alone. It’s not like you particularly stand out from the rest of the crowd; a casual shirt and jeans combo that’s indistinguishable from the dozens in attendance, and you don’t have anything on you that screams ‘overly dedicated fan.’

So when you’re pulled aside by the same staff closely watching the queue during the meet and greet, asked to head backstage as part of some secret lucky draw, you’re not surprised. There’s an age-old superstition that states that you’re more likely to meet celebrities the less you’re familiar with them. It rings true, and you have first hand proof.

You’re led to this singular door in what’s basically an unused narrow hallway. The kind that criminals use to trap their victims. Definitely safe. The staff member instructs you to head in before leaving you there alone. Nothing more, nothing less. 

Instead of your friend, you find one of the members you just met, waiting on the other side. You have so many questions, but she she gives you another to entertain:

“You wanna have sex with me tonight?”

Much to her amusement ,you’re taken aback. At first, you’d think she was pulling some kind of prank. By the way she smiles and laughs, it’s a reaction all too familiar to her, like this is some kind of cliche. It’s not a surprise to hear those words from any girl, knowing your experiences at college parties and bars, but from a traveling singer? Simply put, it’s quite ridiculous.

“You’re joking right?” you say, hand close to the door you just entered, ready to make a beeline for it. You glance around the enclosed, compact space, searching for any possible hidden cameras recording the scene.

She shakes her head, taking a step forward. “Not at all. You should consider yourself lucky.”

“Do you do this all the time?” you ask, her reply not easing you in the slightest. Your hand inches a little closer to the door. It’s not like she’s going to hurt you; if anything, her thin figure’s probably what should worry her if you dare to even breathe heavily on her, let alone touch. 

“Yeah. Every stop. You look really cute,” she says, reaching her hand out to you. “And you look like you can give me a good time tonight.”

There’s something flattering about her words, coming from an idol singer, complimenting you that hits a chord harder than other girls. Her sincere tone, doll-like eyes twinkling, and expressive lips certainly help. It’s alluring—devastating—to a casual like you; how much more to someone who worships her. 

Then, here comes the killing blow:

“So, what’s it going to be?” She kisses you on the chin, wrapping her arms around your neck. It’s not suffocating, not in the slightest, but you might as well be entangled by them. Her eyes, sharp and fiery, are daring you to say otherwise to her seemingly coarse question. 

Leaning your head against her shoulder, her scent and soft skin prove to be intoxicating. You can’t get enough. That hand you’ve been pressing on the door is no longer there; it’s coiled around her back, taking inventory of her slim waist and arched back, then teasing at the fabric of her shirt. Even if she wasn’t the girl you just watched perform on stage, she’s too gorgeous to turn down. And it isn’t like you’ll find your friend, anyway. Perhaps this is your way of getting back at him for being insufferable all throughout.

“Here?” you ask, whispering in her ear, playing with fire. 

She holds you by the cheek, tilting an eyebrow. Shaking her head, she drags her tongue on the ridge of your ear. “Somewhere nicer.”

—————

It’s only you and her in the backseat of one of their vans, windows tinted and the front closed off that it’s safe to assume that the driver can’t hear you—perfectly convenient. He probably doesn’t know you’re even there. 

It’s inside the car that you finally become familiar with each other. YooA, or as she’d prefer you to call her, Shiah, and you have this light bulb moment where you put it all together. You bring up this collection of photocards in your friend’s book holder; you recognize her face on some of the cards. She laughs. Heartily. Her face lights up, honored at the thought, and it’s a sincere look. Other artists would simply wave it off and move on, but she appears intrigued by the effort to obsess over her.

She calls it a bias, and you call it an obsession. In the other’s eyes, you’re both strange. To you, it’s unhealthy and strange; to her, it’s part of the appeal, part of the culture.

So it’s all the more surprising when you admit you’re simply there because of him, that you would have looked the other way otherwise. And in response, she has this warm, wholesome smile; she doesn’t appear offended by your candidness. You don’t know a thing about them, other than they’re delicious eye candy.

“So this is your first foray into K-pop? I hope it was a good one,” she says, flashing you a cute pout. “That means a lot for all of us.”

Yeah, you nod, your eyes wandering down her slim body, draped in darkness, only brought to the light by passing street lamps. You notice how slender and lanky she is. It doesn’t change the appeal; she’s unreal. “I should go more often if that’s the case.”

Shiah chuckles. “You didn’t pay, then. I bet you’re getting more than what he bargained for.”

To which you nod, barely holding in a particularly uncharacteristic grin. She catches it. An opportunity to twist the knife.

It’s a casual affair when you reach the hotel. There’s a surprising lack of fanfare upon your arrival. You assume idols have as much popularity as any other celebrity, but you’re both left alone—and without security, walking past the front desk without a care or a question. Tension gradually builds as you climb floor after floor, until you step out that elevator and into her room, away from prying eyes. 

What welcomes you inside Shiah’s bedroom catches you off-guard.

“What the?”

The person sitting at the center of the bed turns to your direction, shouts out your name. You can recognize that voice anywhere.

“Hey! There you are!”

You immediately turn to Shiah, who replies gleefully, “Of course I knew. Your friend told me everything. He wanted me to invite you along.”

Forget that your friend orchestrated the whole ordeal. It’s the fact that he wants you to join him in a threesome. You expected him to be greedy with the rare opportunity to have a beautiful idol all to himself, but instead, he’s somehow still involving you in the action. There’s a lot to take in, and you don’t exactly know where to start.

“Is this even allowed?” you ask, unsure of your place in this room. You’re slowly soaking up the scenery; none of it makes any sense. Scattered on the bedroom floor is Your friend’s shirt and his bag, freebies and personal belongings alike,, while Shiah casually saunters around the mattress, gradually removing pieces of jewelry from herself and placing them on the nightstand.

“Of course, dude!” says your friend. His energy hasn’t waned in the slightest. You’re amazed his voice hasn’t changed at all, let alone his ability to speak. He had been screaming beside you for the entirety of the show, you’d probably go deaf because of him if not for your earplugs. “I wouldn’t have asked her if she wasn’t allowed to, or if she didn’t feel it.”

“He’s right,” adds Shiah, unbuttoning her jeans. Looking at her again, she grabs your attention with the casual stripping of her pants, pooled around her ankles, leaving only pale colored panties that leave nothing to the imagination. “Plus, I haven’t tried having a threesome before, and tonight seemed like a good idea to try that.”

Surely, you’ve heard weird things before, but none were as out of pocket as this.

“C’mere dude,” says your friend, gesturing to you to take the spot beside him on the bed. “We’re going to fuck an idol tonight. And not just any idol, my freaking bias!”

Your eyes continue to linger on her. Shiah, now undoing her top, candidly tossing them aside. The one time you regret not having your phone on hand to capture without obstruction. Her tits are bite-sized handfuls, nipples firm and on full display, and her figure is so paper thin, you’ll break her when you hold her by her ridiculous proportions. The only thing missing is some fragile warning label plastered on her skin as a reminder to handle her with care.

This is the most awkward you’ve been with your friend since you first met, when he first moved into your dorm. Seated on the mattress, you’re anxious of what’s about to happen. You worry she won’t be able to handle you two; he worries that he won’t be able to ruin her to the fullest extent. 

She meets you at the center in nothing but panties. She scans you both from head to toe, and notices your contrasting expressions. Facing you, she says, “Hey. I wouldn’t do this if I wasn’t confident about the idea. If you don’t make me unable to walk after tonight, I’m gonna be quite disappointed. So chin up.”

Reassuring of a tone it may sound, it doesn’t ease your worry even a little. It doesn’t discourage her either; it’s part of the challenge.

She drops to her knees, and that’s when you come around on the idea. Her fingers make work of your pants; yours first, then your friend’s. With eagerness written on her face, your hard cocks hang between her tiny face. Pausing, undecided, she takes a moment to think which one to satisfy. The way she eyes both yours, then your friend’s—you can tell how hungry she is: how she wants them shoved inside her mouth, down her throat, taking all that delicious load. If she could fit both at once, she certainly would.

“Which one should I take first, boys?” she asks, innocuous sounding, her doll-like eyes pleading up with a playful pout. Knowing full well she already has this whole thing already planned out. You and your friend swallow hard, telepathically aligned, thinking of the same idea, based on the rather silent response.

Shiah has your eyes fluttering, hands already gripped to the edge of the bed, lips letting out a string of delightful moans. It sounds like relief, agony, and ecstasy all at once. She’s leaving soft kisses on your tip, her tongue running circling around your length, and her fingers slowly pumping at your base. All your doubts and hesitations, gone in an instant. The very few glimpses you catch of her, her eyes speak to you, staring, telling you to take it all in.

She feels so good, handles you deftly, as if she’s already acquainted with your cock, even though it’s the first time. Pushing all the sensitive, perfect spots and getting you into a steady rhythm. 

“See? I told you it was gonna be—fine—fuck—” 

Your friend folds just as quickly as you do, if not faster. His words, instantly reduced to echoed grunts, groans, and curses, his hand palming Shiah’s scalp. She’s focused, taking turns with each cock, kissing and teasing you both with the prospect of shoving it down her needy, thirsty throat. One hand on your dick and the other on his, stroking you at near-synchronized tempo, then vice versa. You wonder exactly why she’s even hesitant and nervous about taking two at once when she’s clearly a natural at satisfying cocks. 

She’s well aware that she has only one mouth to fulfill her craving for cock. There’s a look of regret every time she stops sucking one cock in place of the other. It’s almost as if she’s failing, even though the pleasure-ridden expressions on your faces say otherwise. “I hope this is good enough,” she frowns, taking a moment to plant another direct kiss on each cockhead. “I wish I could fit you both in my mouth, but I—”

“Shhh.” Your friend interjects, tugging harshly at Shiah’s dark locks, then rubbing his hand around her forehead. “You’re doing so fucking well, so much better than we hoped—”

Suddenly, he finds himself slowly crumbling. Precum coating around her dainty fingers, while he loses grip on his consciousness, lying flat on the bed. If there’s anything you’ve learned in the very short time you’ve had Shiah on her knees, it’s that she’s particularly gentle. You can feel she’s not going to ruin you instantly and that she’s nowhere close to crushing your cock, unlike some of the girls you’ve known in the past. 

This is all new to your friend, after all. It shouldn’t be surprising.

Still, she continues to pleasure you both, taking a moment to slip his erection inside her throat, slurping and swallowing his cock whole. Her eyes instantly slam shut, mumbling a songful hum, finally soaking in the taste after intentionally restraining herself from her lust. Turning to your side, your friend clearly can’t take her; his mouth agape, his chest heaving, breathing heavily, his eyes widely staring at the ceiling in a useless effort to distract himself. In his mind, she’s relentless, overwhelming, cruel.

Her eyes slide in your direction, brows furrowed, apologetic. You shake your head, smile lightly, perfectly understanding of the situation. It’s not that she’s ignoring you; her other hand’s pressing on the base of your cock, down to the underside, pressing on your balls. She’s already left her mark on you even though she’s doing the bare minimum. The layer of precum on her fingers is clear proof. That should be more than enough. 

And when you find your friend completely unresponsive, breathing through his mouth, you tilt your head at an angle and make this poor sleeping impression—something he hasn’t had in over 24 hours. It’s the command that causes Shiah to slip his cock from her mouth with a silent pop, his dick throbbing with her spit dripping from the tip. Her focus turns over to you; her eyes meeting yours, her hands pressing on each knee, and your fingers brushing loose strands of hair aside to see her pretty face, flushed but flawless. It’s now just down to you two. 

She gives your head a playful swirl, and you lift your brows in approval, subtly biting at the lip to show her you like it. Her eyes lock in, scanning through each subdued wince, waiting for the go ahead.

It’s the slightest head motion that nearly ends you. You’re uncertain if you even said yes or no.

Shiah looks so much better with your cock in her mouth than anyone else’s. She knows, too. You pause to take the sight in—your length buried deep in her mouth, occasionally poking her throat, her cheeks hollow, her eyes looking wide at you with a fiery glint, begging you to take her, use her, ruin her. You’re perfectly positioned to work her; your hand is palming the back of her head, giving her this assertive stare that appears demeaning, but you can tell she prefers to be seen that way. It would be criminal to have her on her knees and not have your way with her.

And you do just that.

You hold her still, using the little increments of strength to motion her into a bobbing motion. She surrenders herself into your control, moving her head back and forth with the grip of your hand. Like the swing of a pendulum, you watch your base disappear and appear between her lips. You’re nowhere close to burying yourself entirely in her mouth, but she feels so incredible, so intoxicating, she may as well be deepthroating you.

It’s not the firmness of her luscious lips kissing your cock nor her lewd expressions that shake you, but her suction. She hums this wistful note while sucking your cock—a song of satisfaction. In contrast to the steady rhythm you’re attempting to impose, she drags your length along her tongue, forcing you into this playful tug-of-war whenever you draw your cock back, directing where your cum should land. She envisions it: the notion of your hot load collected on her cheeks. Her fingers point where she wants them, using her pleading eyes and brows to entice you. 

And you’re not going to deny her request. She’s too charming and expressive to turn down. Even more so when your cock is lodged between her lips. 

You utter this particularly incomprehensible mix of a groan and a grumble while your throbbing cock unloads the warm cum she desires. Without wasting a single drop, she takes it all, puffing her cheeks with your seed while carefully pulling your cock out her mouth. Your hand is no longer resting on her head but rather around her shoulder and collarbones. She plays with the load in her mouth, gargling, swishing, before swallowing it all. Afterward, she sticks out her silky tongue, face completely flustered, showing you the aftermath: leftovers of your cum painting her mouth.

“God, Yoo—I mean, Shiah—” you breathe, lightly falling back on the bed as your legs go numb. Your flaccid cock isn’t enough to show how much she’s drained you in one fell swoop. “How are you so—”

“I told you I wouldn’t be doing this if I wasn’t so confident about it,” she remarks, rising to her feet before pushing you down on the sheets, straddling herself on your lap. Her energy remains steadfast. It’s infectious. Winking and pouting, she adds, “Now fuck me till I can’t walk.”

You’re completely sold on the idea, but you can’t do it alone.

Pushing Shiah off you, you shake your friend back into consciousness. You’re holding her by the shoulders, giving her lips a quick kiss. A soft gesture telling her to be a tad patient. Her eyes clue you in; she’s dying to be fucked, to be used, to be ruined. Your friend looks around, feeling hazy, completely unaware of what transpired, even though it’s only been less than 10 minutes. 

“What’d I miss?” he asks, still trying to make sense of things. The last thing he remembers is Shiah on her knees. Now he sees you and his bias in each other’s embrace. Surprisingly, he’s not fazed in the slightest. The bed’s tremors—rumblings—are good enough indicators.

You’re unable to completely look him in the eye, and you don’t know what to answer, so she does it for you: “Your friend blew a nice load inside my mouth. We were just about to have round two. Join us.”

To her amusement, the reply has you staring at her utterly gobsmacked. It’s not the fact that she’s telling it straight, with zero sugarcoating, but her candid, conversational delivery and deadpan expression, as if they’re close friends catching up on lost time. He doesn’t seem bothered, nor does he ask any further questions. Knowing him, he’d be disappointed if you didn’t. 

Really, what’s there to question when given an opportunity to fuck an idol without any conditions or red tape. He’s not making the most of the moment as you have, and the hurried jump off the bed to take position behind her indicates he’s not going to waste any more time. You’re scared you might get into a confrontation over how you’ll take her.

“Say the word and I’ll move aside,” you tell him, calmly. 

“Let me have her tight ass,” is the reply, straightforward. Chalk it up to tension, but there’s a hint of harshness in his voice, as though some bitterness is leaking. He subtly pulls her away from your side, prompting you to let him take full control. 

You aren’t surprised at where he ends up taking her. The bed is the comfiest option, but in his mind, the safest and the most cliche. A shower to ease the tension and stress in the muscles—that’s a good one too, on top of having her possibly pressed against the panels and the idea of soaping her tits while fucking her in the wet. This luxurious suite, which feels like walking from the one end of a parking lot to the other on weary legs, has a handful of mirrors to watch her get railed on. None are as captivating and inviting as the biggest one—the large glass windows that overlook the city, lit up by lights from nearby skylines and the illumination from the living room. 

He presses her tiny frame against the window, then on air, giving her tiny butt a firm slap. Followed by another. Something about Shiah with her back arched, yelping with each spank, arouses him. Her too. She whines, biting on her lip, hands trying to latch to anything. There’s plenty to claim—from her bite-sized chest, to her slinky waist, to her soiled panties. Something he slips down to her ankles. 

In the moment, your friend doesn’t acknowledge you. He’s all up in her hair, licking the shell of ear, a set of clenched digits digging into her warmth. Her eyes fluttering, she whines, pressing a hand around his waist, mumbling, begging, “Fuck me, please, fuck me.”

You can tell she’s apologetic, wants to be punished and manhandled like a naughty girl. Your friend has this glare in his eyes—a look of hunger. His fingers pump away at her core, without care for pace or comfort, just the satisfaction of hearing her cries and the need for her to cum. Bumping her against the window, he’s kissing her, claiming her as his own. Red marks form everywhere on her neck, collarbones, and back. Her entire body. All his. 

You let him. You watch. Not out of guilt, not out of arousal. It’s his moment.

He looks over his shoulder and finds you just watching. “C’mere,” he growls between muted groans, tone low. It should be awkward (it is) but all that tension disappeared the moment she got on her knees. Approaching the twosome in such a strange fashion, he continues to finger Shiah, shifting her away from the window, binding her from behind by one hand. He’s suppressing his tongue, teasing his cockhead against the entrance of her pussy, barely able to restrain himself. 

When you’re in front of her again, you’re greeted by a hot mess. Her juices are dripping down her thighs, pooling around her feet. His coated fingers line around her warmth, around her tight hole. His lust is on full display, cussing out a storm about how incredibly wet and tight she is while she prepares herself to get fucked into oblivion. It’s not the first time you’ve heard him say these things; he talks a loud talk about how he’d fuck his biases in explicit detail, writes particularly concerning essays about the positions they’d be railed in, how they would cum, and how many times he would make them cum. 

At the end of the day, it was none of your business.

And ultimately, he might have been onto something.

You let out this loud unsuppressed moan burying yourself inside her tight cunt. She’s suffocating, overwhelmingly tight—the kind of heat that can make you cum almost immediately. You’re still recovering from your first orgasm, putting you on the backfoot. Still, her walls are too inviting not to get hard again. Meanwhile, your friend, who’s been eager to fuck Shiah’s ass for the longest time, is in no rush. His cock is barely entering her tight hole, slowly easing himself inside her with deep breaths. He’s grabbing a handful of her flesh, openly moaning and grunting taking her.

“F-fuck, Yoo—” he mutters, grabbing at her petite cheeks with an ironclad grip. Pulling her closer to his body so his cock can split her in half. He’s growing greedy—and desperate.

Everything you’re doing to Shiah can be seen in the window’s reflection: you pounding into her tight cunt, your friend’s cock spearing her from behind, her body practically sandwiched between your twosome. The combined weight is more than capable of crushing her slim frame, her skin like tire marks on both your chests. Neither of you move with an understanding of working as a team, and it shows; your collective strokes are unsteady, erratic, chaotic.

This isn’t good for your back—at all. Shiah’s bent forward in part to your friend’s slow, deep thrusts into her delicious ass, rippling with each stroke. She’s clutching to your shoulders for support, screaming from the absolute depths of her lungs getting doubled up. The uncomfortable position is mostly clouded by the overwhelming sensation of your cocks tag teaming on her two sensitive holes. You’re leaning, steadily falling back. That inescapable warmth—that intoxicating heat—keeps you coming back for more, friction be damned.

God, Shiah’s pussy is so fucking perfect.

And that’s what you end up muttering. In an endless choir of ecstasy-charged moans, profanities, and wet sloppy slaps of skin against skin, you throw those words out to the wind. So good, so tight—those doubts you had entering the room, now just thoughts from yesterday. She’s everything you want in a satisfying fuck; your hands intertwined with her waist, rocking her frame with every plunge, savoring each entry into that needy womb.

It’s no surprise then that she cums so soon.

It’s been slowly building to this moment. The signs were there all along; the blink and you’ll miss it patch on her jeans, the phallic object in her purse, the wet puddle forming on her panties, the not so subtle gestures she’s giving fans between performances—she’s been desperate to cum on a cock and her wish can finally be granted. 

In dramatic fashion, she’s all over you. Clinging to you like her lifeline, showing you how you’ve ruined her. Body trembling, legs quaking—the ripples send shockwaves through your body, also in the process of falling apart. Throwing out her hips, a new layer of juices coat both cocks, dripping to the floor. You’re there to break her fall, but you have nothing to stop yours. 

Passing through deaf ears, her screams revert to soft pleas. “Cum, cum in me—please—fuck—” she whines in bursts, riding out her climax in waves, waiting for you two to join her over the edge. You’re preoccupied with the raging fire in your loins, restraining your urge to release your seed inside her needy cunt prematurely. At this point, you’re almost done, holding onto the last of your resolve not to spurt right then and there. The layer of her slick coating your cock doesn’t do you any favors, either.

Propping her body straight, your thrusts remain relentless. Steadied pace, at your own will, rocking her senseless—that’s how you want to finish inside her. You want to keep her in that position: cupping her tiny chest, wrapping an arm on the neck, resting a hand on your light shoulder. Shiah’s body is the perfect plaything.

All of that is too good to be true.

“Cumming, gonna cum—” you mutter, rather ashamedly, though you’re holding up better than anyone ever expected, especially after already orgasming once. You press her to your friend, almost a flat out shove. The line couldn’t be any thinner. “Shit—”

Your legs are on the cusp of crumbling, but at least they’re generous enough to let you savor this moment. Spilling your pent up need, you fuck that remaining cum into her. It’s fulfilling, euphoric. All the proof is down there, dripping between her legs and on your cock. The sight of her splayed, wrecked hole, oozing with seed, tempting you to stick a thumb around her slick core. She squirms at your sensitive touches, still needy and in want.

Only after the orgasm does your vision clear again. It’s an amusing scene; your friend is still pounding into Shiah’s tight ass at a feverish pace. Last one in, last one out—at least you think, that’s how the saying goes, until he lets out this guttural groan, indicating he’s reached his own climax too. If not for the setting, it’s an accomplishment worth cheering, the kind that’s worth a celebration of a life milestone. Cocks buried to the hilt, the sight of her holes spilling seed never grows old. 

At least you both can agree on one thing: staying inside the welcoming warmth that is Shiah’s heat. Neither of you want to leave, even when you regain mobility in your legs.

You’ve got the rest of the night to ruin her, leave her room hobbling or crawling on her feet. Your friend has a bucket list of positions to fuck her in, so it’s the least of your worries. Besides, both of them know you have no intention of leaving. And in the middle of this non-existent conundrum, while your friend is leaving soft kisses all over her back as a victory lap, she takes a moment to glance at you both. Noticing the similarity of smiles on your faces and your supportive nature towards your friend, she’s reminded of something she shares with her members, apart from the fact they’re getting railed at this very moment:

True friendship.

(A/N: Expect a bit more crowdedness aka more-somes over the next few fics. I also haven’t written an Oh My Girl member since Arin in over a year, so that’s one off the list! This one took a while, had a whole other story involving roadtrips and hitchhiking, which I ultimately scrapped. Thank you for reading!)

PLAID (NEWJEANS HANNI)

Hanni Pham is just about the perfect student: consistently top of the class, perennial dean's lister, well liked among her teachers and peers, an active participant for every co-curricular and extracurricular activity, and overall just a good person to be around.

And you? You're the exact opposite. Slow, lazy, constantly in self-isolation-always cutting classes whenever you can, struggling with just about everything. You're surprised you're still even attending this university as is, despite the countless talks with your professors.

Which is why when she greets you a good morning as soon as you run into each other in the hallway, the books you've been carrying crumble like Jenga blocks.

She immediately jumps into action, picking up your dropped books in record fashion to hand them back to you. The cute, irresistible smile etched on her lips is icing on the cake.

"Here you go!"

Admittedly, you feel some type of way about Hanni. It's conflicting, constantly changing. A little bit of jealousy because she's the student you wished you were, but also a bit of allure because of how surprisingly attractive she is. You've never felt any kind of attraction towards anyone in college besides her. And she turns out to be an exchange student, and you've never seen anyone with the combination of cuteness and beauty before she came along.

You take a moment to look into her eyes. Those gentle, warm irises perfectly capture the kindness emanating from her-God, why is she so damn irresistible. It isn't that you've been giving her the cold shoulder, but you're merely apathetic and neutral with her. Outside of the same brief rote exchanges-good morning, what's your lunch, what are you doing after class later-you and Hanni have been, for the most part, worlds apart.

The universe is doing its part to bring you two together, because you can feel it. Tension so thin, you can cut it with a knife.

She never lets up.

She wants to know you.

"I-uh, thanks," you say, suddenly averting her gaze to your locker instead as you snatch your books back, then in the other direction. Anywhere but her eyes.

Fuck. She keeps staring, leaning her head forward with a lively smile, her hands behind her back, waiting for you to continue. She talks with childlike passion and energy, "We have an exam in accounting later, did you study for it?"

"N-no," you say, almost stuttering through the simplest of responses, as though your tongue is wrapped up in itself. It should be embarrassing for you to act this awkwardly in front of a sweet girl like Hanni. Mentally punching yourself to be better. It never happens. "Not exactly, I kinda forgot."

More like you willingly neglected your studies for a nightlong gaming session. It's an addiction.

Her eyes widen with amusement, as if she sees through the lie. Does she? You don't know. Maybe she does. There's so many layers to her that you never bothered to uncover. That's the price for your negligence and decision to be a lone-wolf.

Hanni reaches her hand into the pocket of her dress shirt and presents a folded up sheet of paper. "Then this with you. Just make sure to hide it underneath the test paper, got it?"

From bewilderment to amazement-your face goes through every emotion, unsure of what would perfectly suit the situation. She doesn't know you well enough to casually entrust you with a cheat sheet, yet she's perfectly fine handing it to you over her presumed friends, which includes members of the student council.

Initially, you hesitate, but she's steadfast in her position, as if you receiving this paper is doing her a favor. You ultimately fold and accept it from her. She grins as you tuck the sheet away in your coat.

"See you later!" she says, before walking past you to her next class. You slowly turn around, watch her leave and rejoin with her friends, one of whom is the student council head. Alone with nothing but your thoughts, you put the strange encounter aside and get moving again.

-----

The next time you see Hanni again is during world history class, right before lunch. Your rather senile professor, who doesn't give a shit that half the class is either fast asleep, on the verge of, or doing everything else apart from listening to his monotonous lecture, drones on about Napoleon's European conquest for the second week in a row. Even the patient student that you are, you've grown tiresome of it, especially with the dreadful pacing. You're way behind schedule. At the very least, he seems to be paid well, so there's a little silver lining.

Looking at her, you wonder if the gods were in a good mood on the day they made her. She's as enthusiastic about the topic as if it's her first time hearing it. Listening to every single word intently, taking down notes furiously, taking pictures of the presentation even though she has it projected on her laptop because why the fuck not-she was born to be the teacher's pet. Compare that to half of the class: even the supposed top student in the class is barely struggling to stay awake, clinging to the edges of her seat out of fear she could collapse from sheer boredom. It's a miracle, really, that there's at least one student showing this much interest.

The notion creeps up in your mind: Hanni's right over there, without a care except for the lecture at hand. Your phone rests on the edge of your chair. Her smile, her shine-you want to keep more than just a mental image of her. Something to actively remind you that someone like her exists. It's creepy, but it doesn't matter when no one's looking, especially not her. Only you.

Little by little your hand crawls toward the phone. Then the moral compass inside you resists. You don't know this girl-not in the slightest. Just because of a simple kind act doesn't mean you're completely smitten over her. Most importantly, you remember one important point about Hanni: she's not from here. She's an exchange student with a one year contract set to expire in-wait for it-two weeks. The semester ends before then, and it's reasonable to assume she'll be gone from your life just as quickly as she entered it once the page turns.

Right as the inner conflict inside your head reaches a fever pitch, the bell rings. On one side, you're celebrating this moral victory; on the other, you're punching a mental wall for not pulling the trigger. Before the professor even realizes the alarm already sounded off, all the students have filed out of the room in quick succession.

You briefly consider searching for Hanni in the sea of students making their way around the halls, but seeing that she's disappeared into the crowd, you decide to let her go. Perhaps the logical side of your brain might be telling you the truth: that she will be a mere afterthought to you after today.

But then there's the unshakeable, unceasing part of you that refuses to give in. Even as you eat lunch at the corner of the cafeteria, you're still trying to single out Hanni to no avail. A hopeless situation gradually growing worse with each passing hour.

A not so subtle tap on your shoulder. Look to your side and there's your angel, appearing at your hour of need. Hanni.

"Hey! Still have the cheat sheet I gave you earlier?" she asks. A few meters behind her is the student council president, Minji, and her secretary, Danielle, engaged in their own conversation, presumably accompanying their friend.

You scramble to find the folded piece of paper somewhere in your bag, forgetting that you've tucked the sheet away deep in your coat. Panicked, you jump from your seat to search within your clothes, still unable to detect its tiny presence hiding in your jacket. "Shit-"

"I can give you another copy if you lost it-"

"I'm sure it's in here somewhere!" you interject, tonally desperate, repeatedly swiping your fingers on the same pockets with no success.

Eventually, you frisk the deepest pockets of your coat, feeling something rough on the edge of your fingertips. Reeling it out, you present a folded piece of paper in front of her. It should be a small win, but it's an embarrassing loss, especially right in front of Hanni.

"Good to know you still have it!" she says, grinning from ear to ear. You're certain she was trying to suppress her chuckle the entire time, and based on her toothy smile, it's not very difficult to jump to that conclusion. "Even if you didn't lose it, I still would have given you another copy if you wanted it."

"Hanni." You turn to face her, a complete juxtaposition from her jolly, outgoing personality. Your expression looks stern in searching for answers. "Why are you like this? We barely know each other."

Surprised by your sudden change in attitude, she takes a step back, pausing to contemplate her answer. Her usually bright demeanor gradually changes to reflect yours. Her smile remains, except it's hiding a little gloom, a little concern. "I just wanted to be kind to you. I saw you were struggling in some of the classes we shared and thought you needed some help. It's only right to do the right thing, you know?"

In that moment, you regret showing a bit of attitude. Hand to your chest, as guilt occupies your heart and mind. "Oh." You pause, stare back into those wanting eyes. "I-I guess you were really being kind to me, huh?"

"I don't make fake answer sheets, let alone give them to people I dislike." She leans forward, causing you to stagger back, bumping your thighs against the cafeteria stool. "And I like you."

Your mouth gradually opens, trying to figure out what to say, how to react. Only air and silent noises come out. You genuinely have no idea how to respond to this sudden revelation. It's not like you're a popular name among the student body, let alone the ladies; if anything, you were mostly a ghost, only coming into light when needed-and in most cases, when the professors would ask you questions about the topic at hand.

Blinking rapidly, you needed to do a double take. "Say that again?"

"I like you." She repeats it for you. Twice. With increasing emphasis on those three words to drive the statement home. "I. Like. You."

Let that sink in. You still don't know what to say. "I-"

"We can talk about this later in the afternoon. Meet me at Room 204, okay? I'm in a rush and I just wanted to briefly check on you." You watch her tone revert back to its beaming, bubbly self with each sentence. Before you even have an opportunity to say anything back, she rejoins her friends and walks away again, waving at you while shouting, "Remember what I told you about the cheat sheet!"

-----

Aside from accounting, where you followed Hanni's advice down to the letter, the rest of the afternoon kept your thoughts mostly preoccupied with Hanni's departing words. The two classes you shared with her during that period were opportunities to stare at her, watch her from a distance. Three simple words, and yet there's layers upon layers to uncover. What did she mean when she said them? You barely interacted for most of the semester, yet she still considers you likable. During those long, painful hours of waiting, your curiosity and anticipation slowly built up.

And then, the bell rings at the top of the seventeenth hour. Time to find out.

While students file out in every direction, celebrating their regained freedom, you make your way through Room 204. Peeking from the outside, you see no one inside, not even Hanni. It looks about the same as when you left it-messy. You're anxious, hesitant, cautious. There's a part of you that believes she's merely playing you in front of her friends, and that she might stand you up as a joke. And you have no reason to believe she genuinely likes you, apart from that one simple act of kindness from earlier.

For the next few minutes, in those crucial moments of waiting, all your thoughts and presumptions begin waging war inside your head. You have one foot on the door, with the other looking to go home. It's not the first time you've been stood up; you can write an entire thesis report going over each terrible experience and the feeling of bitterness and pining that followed. At the very least, should push come to shove, this wouldn't be the worst of them-not even bottom five.

So you pace back and forth in front of the designated room, look at your phone, followed by your watch. Again and again. Minutes, stretching to hours, into days, into a slow eternity. You're starting to lose hope.

Which is why when she comes across you in the hallway, you feel like a kid finding love for the first time all over again. You're not even trying to hide your excitement. The stunned and relieved expression etched on your lips, the growing shade of red across your face, the hitch in your arms as they reach out to her because you couldn't believe she would follow through on her word-

And when she flashes her toothy smile, her mouth speaking words you end up missing-you just want to take her by the hand and run away with her.

She ends up calling your name. Twice, thrice, a dozen times-you're not exactly sure, but you can definitely lose yourself to the sight of Hanni's presence over and over. With a hand held on the door, she's telling you to join her inside, saying she has something important to share with you. At least that's the very gist of it.

At her request, you leave your bag on one of the vacant seats; you end up sharing the same chair. The tension is palpable. Hanni paces back and forth in front of the desk, quietly ruminating, hiding her concerned look away from your eyes. A wakeup call for you that this is a serious matter. You have a lot of unanswered questions, but seeing the gravity of the moment, you conclude that it's better to keep them to yourself a little while longer-at least once all the heavy air has been cleared. You stand there awkwardly, waiting for her to make the first move.

"I just want to say," she suddenly says, still turned away from you, long streaks of dark hair covering her eyes. What they can't hide is the frown on her lips. "I'm going to miss this place. All the profs, all the activities, but most importantly, all the people. Including you."

"Me?" You're not surprised at that statement; you've assumed she wasn't going to be here for the long haul, considering she's an exchange student. What does confuse you, is how she specifically singled you out from everyone else. You barely know each other. At best, you only teamed up for two group projects, which she mostly did the carrying for. For you, the bar has been set very, very low. "How come me?"

Hanni finally faces you, using everything in her willpower not to cry. Her usually lively eyes twinkle with tears waiting to be shed, but she refuses. Not even the warmest of her smiles can hide the somber and pained expression she has looking at you. "Most of the boys here are-excuse my language-a bunch of fucking jackasses and perverts."

Not exactly wrong; if you weren't part of an athletics club or hanging out at bars after class, you were likely to be one of their victims. You know this because you are numb to their asshole behavior. The girls would usually retreat in a subtle manner once they knew their presence, which wasn't difficult to pinpoint.

Rolling your eyes, you reply, "You're right. I hate their guts too-"

"But you've been kind to me from the moment I introduced myself, you know?" Hanni begins to walk toward you, rendering you even more frozen in place. "Even our brief good mornings meant quite a lot. It made me feel welcome."

You didn't really think much of it, unaware that it would have this profound of an impact in someone else's life. And why would you-it's a habit you've been taught since when you were seven. For a moment, you'd think she was being very melodramatic, as if she were practicing theater.

"And-" she pauses, takes a deep breath, "Let's be honest; I know you like me too."

When she drops those final words, your eyes pop. Wide. Enough to stretch through your forehead and fly up. It leaves you completely paralyzed. A whole truth bomb dropped just like that. She cusps your hands with hers; you freely allow her. Whether it's from utter shock or the desire to hold her like this for so long, you don't know, but you definitely want to let this moment linger.

"I-I-"

You can feel her hot breath against yours, her face inching closer, your bodies almost entangling into something passionate and warm. There's nothing stopping you both from finally bridging the gap that's been separating you for the longest time. Hanni, the charming, popular girl that everyone either wants to be friends with or to be her, seemingly knows you like a book read from left to right. More importantly, she likes you. Tells it straight to your face.

Her arms snake around your neck, leaving you even more suffocated. No longer in her grasp, you find your hands pressed around tiny, fit waist. Her glinting eyes encourage you to let those innermost desires run wild. The suppressed thoughts you've been hiding slowly pull you under their influence. You shouldn't be doing this, yet they're right there: those sweet, puckery, inviting lips, waiting to be marked, yours and yours alone.

Instead, you end up in a tight embrace. It's not as romantic as you envisioned. If anything, it's bittersweet. Deep down, this is her way of saying goodbye, and you're only realizing what this is really all about. An opportunity to bid farewell on amicable terms. It's almost cruel that your first substantial interaction outside of school-related activities has to be like this.

You hold on to her tighter. She does the same. You're unwilling to let go. She doesn't want to, either.

Resting her head on your shoulder, Hanni whispers in your ear the most calming and soothing tone, "I'm going to miss you."

You don't believe you've earned the right to say those words back. So the only thing you can do is hold on to her the best you can-for dear life.

Outside, the setting sun is gradually fading away, and so does the natural light it brings. You can stay here, from dusk to dawn, comfortable in this position if she wants to.

She opens her mouth again, and she continues to hum and speak melodies in your ear. "I have one thing I want to do before saying goodbye. Can you help me?"

Without an ounce of hesitation, you nod, saying, "Anything for you."

Hanni breaks the bear hug then leads you along with her to the desk. With the other hand, she lifts it back to her waist, placing herself in a new and unexpected position: her back arched against the table, with one knee bent beside yours. Her eyes glinting with utter desire, she couldn't be any more obvious.

Before the realization fully dawns on you, she does the unthinkable.

A simple irresistible kiss, pulling you down by the collar of your coat. Next thing you know, you have Hanni's back crooked further against the edge of the desk, your lip-lock turning more and more passionate. Nothing overly dramatic and sentimental-only passionate love making.

She wants it. Deep down, you want it too.

"I can't-" you mutter, drawing your breath, pulling your lips away. But not your hands. It's in Hanni's custody now. Your coat halfway down your arms, she sneakily tosses it aside. "Not here."

Surprised by your sudden change of heart, she leans forward, her fingers now pulling at the hem of your sleeves. "What's wrong?"

"I mean-look around, Hanni. We're in a goddamn classroom."

If only you could throw your arms around in protest to prove a point, but even that wouldn't save you now.

"This is what I wanted from the start." Hanni pulls you back in, her eyes hypnotic and irresistible, shining like gold. "You wanted this, too. Don't play."

"Hanni-"

She stops you right in your tracks with an impulsive peck on the lips. Curling them through the kiss to form a smile, she murmurs, "Don't think, just do."

And you do just that. Kiss her, make out with her as if your life depended on it.

Hanni's lips taste like they're meant for you. Sweet like honey. Divine. Heavenly. If it were possible, you'd want to choke on your own breath holding onto them for dear life. Not to mention the hums coming out of her mouth, those subdued mewls that she releases whenever you bite on her bottom lip-you can't help but sink back in whenever you consider the thought of letting go.

There's no reason not to; you have this pretty little thing, Hanni Pham, all to yourself. Even your body knows how rare of an opportunity this is. With one hand quietly slipping between her pencil skirt, you navigate your way to the depths of her heat without breaking the kiss. In a flash, she throws her head back, snapping her mouth wide at the new sensation. All that cool, calm expression, gone in an instant.

"Fuck-"

"God, Hanni. You're so wet."

She grabs your wrist-that mischievous hand newly buried in her pussy-and urges you further, "Keep doing that. That felt so good."

And God, does everything about finger fucking her feel incredible. The satisfying squelch of her cunt as your digits press against her warmth, the continuous twisting of her features as she crumbles from the pleasure, leaving her neck exposed for your lips to newly conquer, adding to the overwhelming sensations coursing all over Hanni's body. Seeing her, this usually larger than life figure, fall under your spell pushes you even further.

Like Hanni, you're still young; there's only pleasure and the thrill of moving too fast and reckless. One day you'll end up regretting this, ruminating over memories that could ultimately end you before you even started, but you'd rather take this memento than leave with nothing at all.

You're both already past the point of no return. Hanni's underwear hangs casually between her ankles while they're wrapped around your waist, her neck filled with bite marks and deep shades of red that no piece of fabric can hide. Her dress shirt is partially unbuttoned, revealing a white camisole desperately seeking to be removed, and if that wasn't enough, she's made the crucial decision not to wear a bra today.

Fuck, that bulging ache in your pants is so agitating-both physically and mentally.

"Wait," you say, suddenly turning around and locking the door quickly, letting her panties fall freely to the floor. It proves to be a little struggle when you unknowingly use your slick-coated hand over your dry one.

"Should have done that first," she playfully chides, chuckling at you.

Returning to her with your drenched fingers pointed in the direction of her pussy, you respond, "Should have chosen anywhere but the classroom."

"You're saying you'd rather do this during our Christmas party?" Hanni lifts an eyebrow, taunting.

"Only if they allowed it."

"And all those cheat sheets I handed you, all that for nothing?"

"Shut up. Didn't need them, anyway."

Hanni can't help but burst into boisterous laughter. There's no use locking that door now.

Even with the little time spent together, there's clearly magic between you, the signs of what should have been a beautiful relationship. If only you both knew that. But now's not the time to go over what ifs-only what's next.

She stops you right as you ready yourself, grabbing the top button of your shirt. Using only her expressive eyes for approval, you steadily watch on till they're completely undone. You're left with the job of removing your undershirt and helping her toss your clothes aside. On the other hand, you're in no rush to undress her completely; she's a perfect mess as is with her unbuttoned uniform, her panties somewhere between your feet, and her taut nipples poking through the fabric.

And Hanni wants it that way. You've barely entertained the idea of running your fingers through her skirt when she interrupts your train of thought.

"You haven't done it yet," she says looking at your greedy, grubby hands, directing them with hers underneath her garment. "Make me cum. Please."

As if you had any other intention. Maybe with something better, but that's usually saved later-and for good reason.

You're trying so hard not to curse through gritted teeth. Fuck. This. Damned. Skirt. Admittedly, it's cute and perfectly suits Hanni; it adds to the appeal of seeing this usually meek, well behaved student asking for something more than naughty-it's downright criminal-but you need to see what makes her really tick. Hanni's clicking her tongue, growing more frustrated by the second than you are, anxiously waiting for you to come through. Carefully, you push a finger into her, then another, moving in delicate and systemic motion.

Then, it all clicks in perfect harmony:

She releases this pent-up moan from the depths of her chest, as though it were a heave of relief. The initial plunge from earlier makes plunging between her slick folds so much easier. You take a moment to let the satisfying sound sink in: the wet slop of her cunt as it reflexes against your fingers, unable to keep yourself from moaning with delight before you slowly draw back, then in again.

From there, everything takes care of itself.

Hanni dissolves into a whimpering mess, under the hypnotic spell of your fingers fucking her pussy in tempered, intricate strokes, effortlessly and handily. Body shaking, desk quivering under the pressure of her weight, her hands struggling to find reprieve from the overwhelming sensations thundering all over her. She can barely breathe, let alone find the words to speak. Only quick curses. Each and every word so gratifying to hear.

"Fuck-fuck-its-its-so-good-more-"

You don't give her any breathing room. In the brief moments when you lax, with your fingers either motionless deep within her cunt or pull back, leaving marks on her inner thighs with her own slick, you're all over her, gently fondling her and kissing her. Half her uniform's sleeve has fallen down her shoulder, giving you more of her body for you to claim as your own. With every little touch and thing you do, you continue to set her nerves ablaze with nothing to quench her lust.

It's no wonder she's such a teacher's pet; she loves to follow along without any resistance or objection. A fact proven when you lift her undershirt to expose her taut nipples, and your free hand impulsively takes them. You give her left tit a twist, and from her needy lips comes a sharp whine.

"Do it again," she says, panting, nodding her head wildly, visibly overwhelmed. She doesn't know what hit her, but it feels fucking amazing.

Of course, you wouldn't pass up the opportunity, even if she hadn't asked. Hanni's body, all yours for the taking. Not everyone can say they fucked the top girl in the class in the classroom of all places.

And you let your body do all the talking. No amount of words nor their depth can adequately describe the sensation of tasting and feeling her figure. First your free fingers, then your tongue-they make their mark on her chest while your other digits crawl to a lazy pace inside her cunt. Not that she minds-she's too engrossed in the blissful sensation to remotely care. Her hands find their way around your neck and back, scratching and digging away at your skin in an attempt to pull you even closer.

It aches-but not as much as the ache in Hanni's core. As you inch her closer to climax, you can feel her tremble, propping her head on your shoulder now as her outlet, whimpering, crying, mewling. "Almost-" she mumbles, before she's caught up again in the sea of her own pleasure. Knowing this, the rest of your body moves like it's second nature. Faster and deeper, you continue your endless assault on her body, until-

Suddenly, Hanni freezes up, moans over your ear as a moment of silent calm follows. In the succeeding moments, you both remain clung together as her orgasm hits. And by god, it hits her like lightning. Sharp and brutal. Fingers stuck deep in her core as she gushes, quivers all over them. It lingers, leaves you both incapacitated.

Minutes that could easily stretch into hours, stuck on a desk, basking in the afterglow of unadulterated bliss. Eventually, she lifts up her head and lets out a deep breath of relief. Her hands remain entangled with your hair as she pulls herself back. A scope down gives you a short but telling extent of the damage: copious amounts of slick dripping on the edge of the table, down to the floor. You're a little terrified of what your fingers will look like.

Through half-lidded eyes, Hanni flashes you a smile as she slowly realizes the mess she has become. Cheeks flustered with embarrassment, she quickly pushes down her undershirt, but they can't hide her nipples' rigidness. You're both grinning at each other like mischievous pranksters. Something tells you that despite everything, it's not enough. The fire in her eyes and the confidence in her laugh says it all: she's looking for more trouble, and one way or another, you're gonna be her accomplice.

Before you can even utter a word, you both hear a knock on the door. Through the casted silhouette, you recognize that it's a janitor. Spent energy be damned, you're brought back to reality. You quickly turn to Hanni in a state of alarm, "Shit. I told you not told to do this in the classroom-"

Reaching out her hand, she replies, "It's gonna be fine! Give me my bag and I'll get us out of this."

You immediately rush Hanni her bag, and while you hastily put yourself back in one piece, she grabs a pack of tissues to clear all evidence of your little escapade. In no time, you've somehow returned the place in nearly the same position you found it. Only one difference: her panties are left on the floor, and she hasn't bothered to pick them up.

"Wait, your underwear-" you tell her as you pick them off the floor. She's already on the edge of the classroom, opening up one of the windows to escape. It's not a suicide jump; only someone with brittle bones could possibly break their legs doing the drop, and there's really no other choice: run away with her or find yourself at the dean's office on your first day back after the holidays.

"Keep it if you want." Hanni shoots you a playful wink and a cheeky grin as she lifts one leg over the open window. "We don't have much time, so unless you wanna explain yourself to the profs-"

"I'm already in trouble regardless," you reply as you join her on the way out. You didn't need to think about what to do. "Got eight missed phone calls from my fam. I'm fucked regardless. Might as well make the most of our time while we're here."

-----

A/N: Happy new year! I never thought I'd write something for NewJeans, but never say never. Hanni was easily the scene stealer for me at the Asia Artist Awards, she and the other members constantly waved at us from beginning to end, and they were killer performers! I can see why she's so adored; she's both talented and adorable. It's been difficult getting back into writing after one month away, so this definitely is a feel-out attempt, but I hope it's still good anyway. Here's to the coming year and hopefully more to come. Thanks for reading!

P.S. I sincerely want to take this moment to apologize for my slow production. As previously mentioned, I got hit with a severe case of the flu, which kept me down for almost two weeks. Since recovering, I've been experiencing weird cases of brain fog, where sometimes my mind 'isn't there' and it feels like my body's been moving on autopilot. I've been getting healthier since then, but the so-called absentmindedness still remains. I've tried writing a few times since then, and it honestly feels like I've forgotten how to write. Hell, this fic was supposed to be out on Christmas day and I've struggled to put it together! It's been very rough. I don't wanna make promises because I'll just end up breaking them, so I'll just say that I'm trying my damned hardest to get back to that level I had been moving before my momentum stalled. I always want to deliver the best possible fic for you to enjoy. Thank you so much for being patient with me as always <3

MISTAKES WERE MADE, BUT NOT YOU (LE SSERAFIM YUNJIN)

"Why? Why weren't you there? I needed you and you weren't there!"

While Yunjin lashes out at you, grabbing at your shirt and using you as a proxy for the world and its ill-timed misfortunes, you can't help but wonder if your presence would have changed the situation for the better.

Probably not. It's one of those events that has to happen for character growth.

-----

Tonight is supposed to be a night of celebration-a commemoration to the achievements, accomplishments, and accolades of the past year. The numbers and statistics never lie. They love her work, they love her artistry. They love her for what she sells and what she represents. But truth be told, Huh Yunjin couldn't care less about what they think.

Thunderous cheers and colorful lightsticks representing different fandoms brighten the arena as the five Le sserafim members climb up the stairs to claim their award. Minutes ago, they pulled off the performance of a lifetime-an eight minute masterclass that represents everything the group stands for. You could see the exhaustion in their faces; barely mustering the strength to smile and wave to the crowd shouting for them.

For the most part, the acceptance speech is nothing notable. Going through the motions, thanking the fans, the staff, the company, promising to do better in the future-it's about as cookie cutter as it gets. As Yunjin tries her hardest to keep her tears from falling while she talks, the other four can only focus on her with varying weary looks. Chaewon looks especially worried; it's her responsibility and burden to look after every single one of them.

From the audience's viewpoint, it's seen as a non-issue, but the five girls recognize deep down it's anything but. The only noteworthy thing is how suddenly quick they are on their feet heading backstage. It's funny how everyone chases fame: to be in the moment, the spotlight. It's funnier, Yunjin thinks, that she'd rather be anywhere else.

Unfortunately for her and the other artists attending, they'd have to wait a little longer. There's backstage interviews and other idol obligations to do before they are finally let go. It's not even worth all that lost time-that one award they receive ends up being their lone win for the night.

-----

Yunjin storms into your hotel room without a word with a fierce expression on her face. She doesn't have to say it; she's thankful she doesn't have to spend another minute in front of the cameras, another minute being an idol-at least for the night.

In a sea of anger and auburn, Yunjin walks past you without acknowledging you at least once. She hastily drops off her purse on the coffee table before charging straight to her room and slamming the door. It's easy to chalk up her frustrations on the monotony of the awards season-the countless hours of practice specifically for one event, the hours spent in the makeup room, the hours of interviews and fanservice-but you know she never acts like this. Rain or shine, hell or high water, she'll walk around with a pleasant smile on her face.

Tonight simply isn't one of those nights. You saw the whole ordeal happen in real time, and you're already regretting the decision not to be there. At times, watching her on screen was tough. You can tell she was visibly uncomfortable, more clingy to her members than usual, when it's normally the other way around. Admittedly, you have to give her props for holding herself back from crying when she has every right to. It's a cold winter night, but that's not the reason she's trembling and shaking. It should be a night of celebration; instead, her sullen expression resembles the aftermath of complete, utter humiliation and defeat.

And it may as well be. You look through your phone; you find the messages from friends and acquaintances telling you the exact same thing; it might as well be considered spam.

> Yo did you see what happened to Yunjin?

> Is Yunjin okay?!

> Yunjin fell! Fuck MNET!

> BRO YUNJIN FELL FROM THE STAGE WHAT THE FUUUUCK-

> Don't tell her but I actually laughed when she slipped XD hope she alright tho!

Of course you know. It's all caught on camera and in living color for the whole world to see. Even if it was cut from the YouTube edit, which is highly unlikely, it's already out there on the internet spreading like wildfire. Numerous reposts with tens of thousands of likes, multiple articles immediately written after the incident-her name and her moment will remain immortalized in K-pop history for all the wrong reasons. It has the internet making jokes, it has the internet writing thinkpieces, it has the internet creating needless fanwars-it has the internet buzzing.

You want to throw your phone from where your room is located-all the way up on the 27th floor-and pray it lands directly on a hater's head.

Sure enough, when you try to enter her room, it's locked shut. The door won't budge. All this awkward, quiet tension between you is terrifying, and sleeping her feelings off isn't going to help anyone, not during these trying times. She needs comfort right now more than anything else.

You give the door a respectful knock, only to be met with silence. Trying again and again leads you nowhere. Calling her name does you zero favors. Each futile attempt cuts away at your heart, little by little. Yunjin would rather isolate herself from the world than open up to anyone with no exceptions. Obviously, you have nothing to do with what happened (that is on the production team more than anyone) but you bear the responsibility and burden of being Yunjin's partner, always there for her during the good times and the bad.

Now is not the time to give up or sulk. She needs comfort and love more than anything. She needs a shoulder to cry on. She needs a special voice to reassure her that everything will be okay.

Rummaging through her purse, you find one of her countless hairpins. It's the oldest trick in the book-one that she always used to get you with guaranteed success. Already bent and straightened, perfectly shaped for picking-it's as if she wanted you to reach her. You remember the disaster that was teaching you how to pick locks; dozens destroyed, to the dismay of her apartment doors, but she knew you'd need it at some point, and tried to help you to the best of her ability.

The lock comes undone. It's a miracle, but it's short-lived. What welcomes you as you enter her bedroom turns your uncertainty into shock and utter disbelief.

It's imagery you only see in nightmares. Her bedroom completely ravaged and in utter ruin. Pillows, clothes, and objects scattered throughout the room. Yunjin is curled up against the wall with a blanket draped over her, concealing everything but her eyes. Bloodshot red from spilling her heart out. Around her feet lay two opened half empty bottles of alcohol and a spilled over wine glass. It takes everything not to drop to your knees or yell out "fuck" from the depth of your lungs.

Instead, it only comes out as an airy whimper, with your throat choked up seeing the sorry state your girlfriend's in.

Every little step you take may as well be tiptoed. Carefully treading into uncharted territory, who knows what you'll end up meeting. The next words you pick will be the most important ones you'll ever say. It isn't as simple as telling her everything will be fine-that mistakes happen, life moves on, and this will be a memory she can laugh at a few years from now. She believes she's ruined not only her career, but also her members, when anyone with common sense thinks otherwise.

With a deep breath and a gulp of your throat, you run through all the options. You pray you make the best choice.

"Jen Jen," you mumble, crouching down in front of her, frowning. Try as you might, you can't bring yourself to smile. You reach your hand out to peek through the curtain; she aggressively slaps down your palm. It's as dire as you believe it looks. She sees the world crashing down before her.

Watching her cry and hide herself away plucks away at your heartstrings. You don't want to see her looking this sorry, this deflated. If her members-the people she's closest with-couldn't get through her, then how much less can you? Even so, you have to keep trying. Not as a fan nor an acquaintance, but as her partner.

Again, you'll have to pick your way through another lock. This time, her heart. And it's more delicate than any physical door.

She's drowning in her tears to realize the tug on her wrists. Little by little, you pull them apart. Yunjin's bloodshot eyes glare right into yours, but she does nothing. Slowly, you curl your arms around hers, reaching around her back. For a moment, she appears vulnerable. Open. You press yourself close to her-

And then she hits you square in the face.

Yunjin assaults you with a relentless barrage of fists, with one jab directly clocking your lips. They're not the playful ones you're used to. The kind that's usually thrown after a serious argument, and you've only experienced a handful of squabbles. She sends you staggering back to the floor, violently screeching and attacking you. "Fuck you! Leave me alone!" she yells, punching you repeatedly with no sense of direction, only rage. You try to lift a hand in self-defense, only to be sent knocking down, to the point where you just give up and allow her to rip through you.

Looking into her eyes, having turned from grim to cruel, she looks as if you were there. As if you were the stage director. As if you were the one who pressed the button on the control panel. Her punches, aimless as they are, fucking hurt. You're on the floor, defenseless, but you deserve it. You weren't there when you should have been. The one award show you opt not to attend happens to be the one that ends up sideways. Of course she'll pinpoint the cause back to you. That's blind passion. That's love.

She grabs you by the collar of your shirt, screaming right in your face, "Why? Why weren't you there? I needed you and you weren't there!" Angry as she is, you can tell she's trying to restrain herself. She wants to humiliate you, but she also doesn't want to smash your head through the marble floor. You have this ragged but innocent look on your face. The stubborn kind that would tell her that you won't give up on her. That you'd happily take all the beating just to see her smile again.

As it turns out, all she really needs is an outlet to air out her emotions. She has moved past her tears, and she has stopped beating you down, but everything else still remains. The glare. The dour frown. The fingers gripped to your collar. The room is silent, with the only sound filling the air is your low, airy hush of "Sorry." Your hand rubs against her arm, conveying a message of reassurance that everything's going to be okay.

Yunjin freezes. Unsure of how she feels, unsure of what to do. The moment stretches beyond the perception of time. You end up getting caught unprepared by what happens.

She doesn't apologize for throwing you to the floor and verbally and physically assaulting you. You don't really mind. A kiss is more than enough of an apology. Even more when it's passionate, humming into your mouth before letting her tongue slip right between your lips, and her hands now pressed to your cheek. Lovemaking is how she speaks to you. Her lips do most of the talking.

Her body does the rest.

Yunjin pushes you down to the floor. You watch her shed her leather jacket, in awe of her radiant beauty. Her skin is porcelain, gleaming from the bedroom light. She's a star, and shines like one. The reverence soon turns to amusement, mostly at how nonchalant she's behaving. Minutes ago, she was hostile, out of control, threatening to turn you into a ruined mess. Instead, she's about to leave you a ruined heap, but in a different way.

She notices. She always does. Knows you like a book. She grins.

"You know I can't be mad at you," she says, lifting an eyebrow as she straddles on your lap. Smirking playfully, she's making you double take and wonder if this was an elaborate ploy or if she was really upset. And if it's the former, then you'd really feel betrayed and manipulated. "Sorry dear," she adds, accompanied by a peck on your lips. "I know it's not your fault nor mine, it's just that we prepared so much and-"

"Don't worry," you interrupt, placing a hand on her bare shoulder, "I should have been there. I mean, what are the chances the one time I'm not there, this shit-"

"Shhh." Yunjin plants a finger on your lips. "Babe shouldn't worry about his Jen Jen's performance. At least I looked cool falling, right?" she asks, both sweet and playful.

"Sure you did," you chuckle, almost sucking on her fingertip as she points it directly at your lip. "Definitely the coolest fall I've ever seen. Will never be replicated. Ever. And I mean that."

She laughs, heartily, even though she knows you're flat out lying. "Yeah, because they won't do stage designs like that ever again." Then she kisses you again; she kisses you as if your lips are her lifeline. "I swear I'm gonna tell management not to do elevated stages when we go on tour!"

This is the Yunjin you know and love; the one that everyone knows her for. Laughs at her own jokes and her own mistakes, and smiles through it all. You're amazed at how joined to the hip you both are when the cameras aren't on. When you're the only ones in the room-when she can truly be herself and not a fragmented version tailored to the public. You both have this special connection together that only you two can understand.

Her smile is so radiant, distracting even, that you recognize too little too late how tense you're feeling.

"Jen Jen," you tell her, looking down at her legs. She has a hand between her skirt, and her underwear is already partially down.

"What is it?"

"Can we take this somewhere else," you tell her, flustered by your own request. There's no skirting around the thought that you'd rather take her anywhere except for a cold floor in a messy bedroom. She hasn't realized it yet, but you know Yunjin well; she would never let your imprints stick anywhere in her bedroom, hotel or her apartment, let alone make a mess. That, and for as much as you love the sight of her on top of you, you want to keep things on even footing-for now.

The expression she makes is priceless; it's all part of the charm. She rolls her eyes, scoffing at the thought, as if the very suggestion offends her. She takes a moment to let the notion sink in. "The audacity," she thinks to herself, the idea seemingly harder to digest if anything else.

"You're so unserious," she comments, in the most blunt tone possible, it may as well be condescending. Her thighs press deeper into your jeans to further prove a point. If that's what she wants., then you're fine with that. It's probably a better idea than yours, too. "You shitting me right now?"

"It couldn't have hurt to ask."

"Well it wouldn't have hurt you to be here sooner," she retorts, grinning, like those words are your biggest mistake. "Then maybe I would absolutely consider it."

In reality, there's nothing to consider, because you end up rolling on top of her after she first pounces on top of you. It's how she usually greets you after a busy day: jumping straight into your arms, then it's on to the bedroom.

But not tonight. You don't make that far, just the table by the foyer, the chair she usually reads in, nearly tripping over the coffee table and landing somewhere more comfortable for you both in the living room. In your wake you leave behind a trail of clothes, yours and hers entangled together-mostly yours. It doesn't take much to undress Yunjin when she's dressed for the occasion, and by the time she's halfway unbuttoning through your shirt, she's on her knees, completely naked.

She kisses you, leaves strawberry marked lips on your tummy, looking so wanton, so needy. Your eyes follow along as she continues down to your pants, before looking up to you with doe-eyed curiosity. She's got an edge to her, they say, which really just means, "she's really fucking hot." Everything about her, from the attitude to the wardrobe screams fierce, someone who knows what they're doing and doesn't care about what others say.

But behind closed doors, she's more like the other girl you know. Someone she tends to look after. She looks vulnerable. It's cute to watch her act like someone she's not.

It's impossible not to help yourself, to stroke your own ego, even at Yunjin's expense. There's no hiding that devilish grin; it's way too obvious. Nodding, you brush your hand through her autumn colored locks as she undoes your jeans, reminding her who she really belongs to.

"Fuck-oh God-" you moan, allowing Yunjin to do what she does best: use her lips to praise your cock. No preamble, no foreplay-just immediately taking you straight into her mouth. You were already hard, so it doesn't take much effort for her to swallow you up. Both of you using your pent up frustration and impatience after weeks where it seemed as if you were worlds apart.

Leaning back against the wall, you can only imagine how Yunjin looks taking it. Your hand firmly grips the back of her head, while she rubs her fingers along the length of your shaft. She forces out every curse and word of appreciation out of you with a deep tone, it's almost concerning.

"Slow down," you mutter, knowing full well she won't listen. Not for anything. Not for you. She wants this as much as you do.

At first glance, it doesn't really show-not in the playful, satisfied hums while she blows you nor in the slow, deliberate pump of her fingers around your base. It's a little too leisurely for someone to act desperate. Then you peek through the curtain of sensory overload, and that's when everything becomes clear. The furrow of her eyebrows, the fixated attention on your cock, the spread of spit and precum all over your erection.

Maybe she does have a point after all.

She catches you staring, catches you slipping. Her eyes flutter open, then shut. In a flash, she goes from sipping on your cock to choking on it. Forcing you deep in her throat without your input. It leaves your head spinning, back at square one, with no control of Yunjin nor yourself, clinging your hands to the walls for support.

"Jen Jen, shit-" you mouth, but it's near silent in comparison to the sloppy sound she makes gagging. It's as if she's laughing at you for looking so helpless against her.

The sensation of her slick mouth burns. Her ever increasing tempo and lack of care or comfort relentlessly pluck away at your resolve and restraint. Her eyes water as she violently pushes her own boundaries, her own limits. Stains gradually pile around her lips and chin, a mixture of her spit, seed, and lipstick. You have her hair wrapped around the print of your fingers, holding loose strands away from her gleaming face. Despite your best efforts, you aren't able to see her beyond blurry little flashes and brief snapshots. Deep down, you're set ablaze, with nothing to extinguish you. You look to the ceiling, to the side, anywhere but beneath you, trying to find some reprieve from the agony and tension pulling at your loins.

You end up finding it down there, where you want it the least.

Yunjin has you right where she wants you to be-tightly sealed between her strawberry lips as you helplessly cry out her name in a sea of curses and praise. Anticipating the moment you finally break, she zealously works around her gag reflex to keep you deep in her throat. It doesn't help that she has your balls around her hand, rubbing away and humming in satisfaction at the big hot load that she'll receive soon. At points, she's pouting at the fact that you refuse to surrender yourself entirely to her, that you're still fighting.

It's a losing effort that ultimately delays the inevitable.

An echoed shout, a wide drop of your jaw, and right there, lightning strikes-you come undone. Yunjin welcomes you with an open mouth; your thick hot load spills down her throat without a single wasted drop. You're left wide-eyed, shuddering, panting as your orgasm washes over you. Even so, she continues to squeeze away at your balls without remorse, pumping your cock to unload more cum down her thirsty, needy maw.

Yunjin can't hold in her delight and laughter after she licks your underside for any leftovers. You cushion back against the wall, your energy completely drained as she laps her lips and chin clean. Just like that, any remnant of what transpired hours ago, completely forgotten. It's not a healthy coping mechanism-not in the slightest-but if it works, it works.

That's one department where Yunjin won't let you down.

"I wasn't ready," you huff, palming a hand on your thumping chest, cumbrously catching your breath. You mindlessly stare at the living room light, struggling to gather yourself. "Shit, Jen Jen, that was-"

"And we're only getting started," she interjects, quickly rising to her feet, pushing you upright. The grin on her face doubles down on the intent. "I'm not going to bed in a dour mood tonight, and you're gonna help me feel better."

God, she's so damn good at this whole setting the mood thing.

You're no different than anyone else, folding so easily as her fingers map out your body. Continuous circles around every part that belongs to her: from your hair, to your shoulders, arms, chest, down to your tummy, around your back, and everything else in between. Yunjin demands everything about you, her fiery gaze keeping you in tow. You're tensing up, letting out these strained gasps, watching her watchful eyes dictate your every little move, reminding you who's carrying the stick in the relationship.

She has you by the balls, quite literally-pumping you back to hardness-and she's enjoying every moment of it. Teasing you with her flattering mien, she has every intention to leave you more tired and spent tonight than any day she's worked in her life.

Then, a phone rings. It's not the hotel landline, but from the pile around your legs. Suddenly, a lightbulb appears over Yunjin's head, and the smirk on her lips is anything but subtle.

"Would you look at that," she teases, her grin growing an extra inch wider, and her ironclad grip loosens. Still, you have no room to breathe when she crouches down to dig your rumbling phone out of the pocket of your pants. She makes it a point to act shocked in response to the incoming caller, then shows her to you.

Kim Chaewon.

It's an open secret within the group-how important of a piece she is between you two, the perfect reprieve and voice of reason when the other isn't around. You've gotten tangled up with both Chaewon and Yunjin a few times, under the same guise of stress relief. In a way, they've grown closer together thanks to you. But the rather scornful frown she has tells you otherwise. As if she's going to lose the one last thing keeping her head straight. Forget that Chaewon is respectful of your relationship; if she gets in the way between her and your dick, she'll cut her down, and that goes for anyone else too, friendship be damned.

"Be a good boy and take care of the call, will you?" she asks, tone playful, handing the phone over to you. You have no say, other than to follow her command. In the process, you feel your groin tense up. You look down and find your cock sandwiched between her heavenly thighs, choking up from the new sensation of her creamy skin.

When you try to look away, she redirects your eyes back to hers. Her palm meets your chin. Hard. She curls her lips, expressing disdain and reinforcing her control. There's your first and last warning.

You've never struggled so much just opening your own phone. It's not that Yunjin just hacked into it; her imprints are everywhere. The very lockscreen is her kissing you, your face cropped out of frame and your homescreen is a candid photo of her more bold outfits. If not for the texts from the other members and loved ones, you'd look like the creepiest, most obsessive stalker ever. You can feed tabloids and news outlets day-to-day information, down to the most intricate details. She's a huge part of you, and it's gonna eventually ruin you-

"Hurry up, dipshit."

Yunjin's stern tone snaps you from your daze. Hard to maintain a steady head when she's slowly choking you out and she's thrusting your cock in and out of her legs, still sore from her blowjob and while you're still reeling from your orgasm. She's perfectly built for fucking for hours on end; you're surprised you hasn't caught on after so long.

"Hello?" Chaewon's voice pulls your focus away, but only briefly. Almost instinctively, Yunjin's legs press tighter against your hard cock in response. She raises her eyebrows, shaking her head, demanding you answer the call. No context clues, no verbal cues, just wing it.

"He-ey, Chae." Your voice comes out gruff, airy. A brief glimpse down and you find the growing stain on Yunjin's thighs. Your cock entering and exiting the comfort of her legs. She doesn't appear satisfied, not even a little.

"Is Yunjin there with you? She's been gone after we got back to our rooms. She's not been herself after-you know-and we've been trying to comfort her to no avail."

"Yeah, she's here with me-" you say, looking directly at her, and she nods, still stiff and sour. She leans forward, her tongue pressing against your skin, mumbling something incomprehensible on your neck. Somewhere along the lines of "If you tell her, I'm going to fucking kill you," and she sounds like she means it.

Try to suppress your gasps and whine, you can't hold yourself back. It affects your inflection, from gravelly and small to high-pitched and nasally. You're one wrong move away from meeting disaster, and Yunjin is the one goading you to your own pitfall. She revels running you around in circles, leading you like sheep to a shepard. You can't think straight from all this built up pressure. "She's good! She's doing just fine-"

Out of nowhere, she moans. Loud. Her tone is so obvious, it can't be anyone but her. Any sort of illusion or pretense is immediately dashed, right then and there. You almost drop your phone, barely managing to save it with a glint of clarity.

You don't hear from Chaewon for a bit, letting you indulge in Yunjin's seductive motions. Your body is the perfect outlet for her pleasure: kissing and marking around her neck, her fingers tracing your arms to your chest, and your cock comfortably snug between her sculpted legs. You regain some semblance of control by pumping away between her warmth, but it's hollow; she lets her thighs press down while you thrust quicker and quicker. At first, she'd been the one bringing all the friction, until your hips begin to glide involuntarily, the wetness dripping from her thighs and around your cock making the transition near-flawless.

Soon, the room fills with the sound of her moans, till it becomes oh-so clear you're fucking her. The call remains active, but you still hear nothing from Chaewon's side. The phone in your hand is what's holding you back, but even you feel your control slip away again; against Yunjin's demand to pretend everything's normal, when there's nothing normal about the position you're in. The only thing unusual is the fact that Chaewon isn't there to watch, preferably while pleasuring herself.

"Shit, Yunjin, you feel so fucking good-" you sputter, clutching Yunjin's nape as she curses and whines against your shoulder. Suddenly, you hear Chaewon again, but you've practically stopped caring. She'd understand.

"Yeah, well, I don't blame her for going to you. I'd do the same right now, but I gotta take care of the girls as the leader." Chaewon sounds so diplomatic about the matter, it's almost surprising. "Just-" she pauses when Yunjin loudly kisses you, cooing and moaning about how big you are in the direction of your phone. "Please tell her to come back here by morning, all right?"

"Sure-thing." Your tone jumps on the second word, as your cock hits a particularly deep stroke that teases the outline of her cunt.

"Oh, and Kkura said hi, by the way."

You're amazed at how understanding she is.

"Okay." You look down and you see Yunjin adjust your cock around the entrance of her pussy with her hand, impatient and done with the teasing. All the possible replies to maintain normalcy and your best response ends up being a simple, hurried "Hi."

"Bye."

You drop your phone right as Chaewon hangs up the call. Yunjin immediately kisses you straight in the lips, sliding her tongue between your lips. She lets out this strained whine when you grab her ass, lightly pushing her away. Miraculously, she doesn't fight back or lash out.

"Don't you wanna cum right in my pussy?"

"No, Jen Jen. Let me finish right in your thighs."

Yunjin flashes this sad, deflated frown, but she ultimately concedes. She's this multifaceted character only you might ever hope to understand. She's a perfectionist and wants things her way, but she's also soft and vulnerable. You feel guilty making this rather huge request, but she reassures you by pressing your cock comfortably between her legs. Your worries soon disappear when the friction of her heat keeps your hips moving. The sight of your dick moving in-and-out keeps you preoccupied.

Even she forgets about her disappointment too, hypnotized by the continuous rhythm of your cock. She pulls your head in, moans all these profanities of varying tones in your ear. The way you both pull each other's bodies apart, your expressions twisting in pleasure, demanding more-you might as well be in bed, and not breaking your knees and backs against the living room wall.

You're not sure what's going to break first-your legs, your back, your hips, or your cock.

"Oh-fuck-Yunjin," you groan, losing yourself in her asphyxiating heat of her skin, on the verge of another climax. You have one hand marking her ass as you both grind into each other's bodies. God, you're both made for one another. Drowning in her tightness, you thrust deep between her legs. Same spot, same stroke, same result. You remember where and how well you've fucked her, it's almost muscle memory to you. It drives Yunjin crazy.

She senses your incoming orgasm and shouts. The need for you to cum isn't a request, but a full demand. Something to be expected. Her voice hits those familiar high notes that aren't far off from her usual recordings, and she firmly clings to you. As if you ever had any other thought than to finish on her pencilike legs. You let yourself succumb to the sensation, let all the pent up pressure set itself off while you bask in that delirious high.

The way Yunjin clenches her thighs around your cock, she may as well have snapped it off.

You both mirror each other's expressions; eyes completely shut, jaw completely agape, resting in each other's bodies. The only difference being that Yunjin is way, way louder than you. Your mind goes completely blank, with nothing but her name drawn out from the curve of your lips. Your back is aching; your knees are tingling, ready to fail at any time. Nothing registers for you except her voice, her endless moan that rings in your ear. It's only after her legs involuntarily slacken their grip that you fall.

To the floor, that is.

And you stay down-a minute, maybe several, completely shaken up and your head still riding that high. Somewhere in limbo. One hand gripped to her waist, the other on her leg. You forget to breathe. Your brain doesn't register the concept of exhaling, only taking in air. The world around you appears to pause completely.

And then your phone beeps. Still dazed, you completely ignore it.

Yunjin brings you back to life. She has one hand gripped against the wall, the other on your hair-which you now just realize-gasping for much needed air. She can't muster up the strength to open her eyes, so you assess the damage. It's as disastrous as it looks: a huge splatter of cum around her legs, dripping down to her feet. To the floor. To your pants.

You don't say a word; you don't really have anything meaningful or productive to add. The simple question of whether or not she feels better, but you know she'll say it won't be enough. That she wants your cum right in her pussy, no matter how spent or sore you are. Maybe you can quietly weave your way out of a nightlong bedroom session.

So you look at your phone, removing yourself from the situation. There's two new messages, both from the same person-Chaewon. Nothing noteworthy, just the reminder to send Yunjin back early in the morning. The idol life never really stops.

Yunjin calls out to you, abruptly intercepting your attention. "Hey."

You look up and find her looking down at the details, slowly gathering her bearings. She runs a finger on a sticky patch on her skin, then tastes your seed with her tongue. "What's up?"

She ignores you for a moment to gather more cum to lap, then stares directly at you. "We should have done this in front of a mirror."

You pause. It's hard to believe Yunjin telling you this, when she's been the biggest skeptic. She'd rather have it in bed, on the table-anywhere that won't allow her to see herself. The uncanny image of a prim, desirable idol bent over while someone uses her.

With that in mind, you chuckle. "We do it all the time. Give it a break."

-----

You both end up doing it anyway.

It's two in the morning, and you vividly have Chaewon's request at the back of your mind. The group's flight back home is in six hours, and Yunjin has to be there with them for breakfast. It's not like you'll be away long term; she has three days-off after today. Days when you can spend all the time in the world together to your heart's content. But fuck, Yunjin is so goddamn insatiable, she can't go at least three hours without your cock somehow around her. You don't end up getting sleep, because she's so needy for your cock she can't help but stroke it or blow it back to hardness.

Your suggestion? A late night coffee run that ends in predictable fashion: you, fucking Yunjin from behind in the comfort of a cafe restroom.

Yunjin's outfit barely qualifies as casual; if anything, it's her performance fit (a sports bra and a short skirt) from earlier, topped only by the leather jacket she went to your room with. Yet none of that matters when they're pooled on the floor, with your hand squeezing her bare breast and the other pressed on her shapely ass. And there's your hard cock, pounding away at her soaked cunt like it's second nature-which it is-and it's quite the motivating sight. Watching it appear and disappear in her pussy, hearing her hushed pleas, echoed cries, and every lewd sound in between.

The cafe across your hotel is completely empty, which is to be expected. You can count the number of working staff on one hand, and most of them are fast asleep or busy on their phone. You're not making any excuses for fucking Yunjin at a place like this; you're merely laying out the scene.

You can blame Yunjin for your precarious position. Any attempt to make some small talk she makes it about you. About missing your cock so much, about how she wants you to fill her pussy up and make her feel better. As if two orgasms wasn't enough. You wouldn't be surprised if she asked you to fuck her right then and there, in front of the cafe where everyone can see. You end up agreeing to a compromise, but it's merely delaying the inevitable. The door is locked shut, nobody's around to hear, and no one really cares.

If only it were that simple.

"Fuck-so-fucking-big!" cries out Yunjin, as if you were in the privacy of your hotel room and not in front of a public restroom. She gives it to you again, praises you in both murmurs and screams, her hands glued on the edges of the sink, eyes fluttering open and closed with her jaw agape on the surface. It's as filthy as you imagined, if not more. Only you can see the full extent of the damage you're making, and it is breathtaking.

She beckons you to fuck her harder, give her more, tells you not to stop. The idea never crosses your mind. When she yells and mewls, she's making sure each one is louder than the last. You can tell she has nothing to lose. If she's going down, she'll drag you down with her.

"You're so fucking tight, Jen Jen," you groan out, looking at your entangled bodies in the mirror, at her arched back, at the curvature of her ass, at your cock spearing her hard. You puncture each of your next three words with increasing emphasis. "So-fucking-tight."

As the sex dissolves into deeper madness, so does your restraint. You're fucking her through the sink, pounding away with reckless abandon, with zero care for comfort. Thoughtless, impulsive drops of 'tight,' 'fuck,' and even a single 'slut' bomb-words that can get you cancelled on-air. Yunjin shudders, letting out this drawn out 'yes' in response, as if admitting the truth-to your utter surprise (sarcasm). Her core clenches against your cock, stretching her out. So wet, so needy-

It's a strange thing to believe, but this is Yunjin's first orgasm of the night. Her lands lay flat on the sink, and her mouth lolls wide, screaming your name like you're the most important person in the world. The intense heat, the suffocating pulse of her cunt, drowning your cock-

Fuck, it's too much for your already aching cock. And her thighs and lips were brutal in their own right.

Moments after hers, your very own climax follows. You've already struggled holding back twice; whatever amount of resolve you had left is non-existent. Moving from her chest at some point, the hand on her hair yanks harder. Pushing your hips as far as they can go, wishing your cock can somehow enter her womb-you ignore the possibility that you might be hurting her.

'Hurts so good' exists for a reason.

The remnants of your orgasm continue to leave Yunjin in shambles. A brief look at the aftermath, and the first impression is that you didn't fuck her hard enough. Your hot cum spilling from her splayed, ruined hole, her clothes on the other side of the restroom, and your pants receiving some of her hot slick. Yunjin remains bent on the sink, huffing through her own climax, your hand deeply imprinted on her ass, and marks, scratches, and rosy patches on her back-vestiges of hours gone by.

You remain like this for a little while longer: cuddling up against her frame while she rests on the sink, softly kissing around her ear, brushing strands of loose red hair. She's gorgeous, there's no denying that. When she performs, when she's being herself, when she's getting pounded hard-but she looks best when she's calm, when she's at her softest, at her most vulnerable. When you're all alone and you both have nothing to hide. At the end of the day, you both need each other. For everything.

-----

You and Yunjin might as well be strangers.

It's as if the past seven hours happened in a different timeline. Both of you casually lounge in the still lifeless cafe, drinking the nonexistent traces of your iced coffee. You scroll through social media; Yunjin still dominates the trends and new reposts of the viral accident pop-up like they're produced from a factory. She's doing the same, reading through all the comments. Some memes, some praising her professionalism, some simply to get that verified ad revenue.

This will be completely forgotten in a week. Yunjin's career will come out unscathed. People move on. She will, too.

Yet you still remain awkward with her, completely undecided on the words that she really needs right now. She needs you more than just your body.

"Jen Jen," you whisper, before you freeze up at her anxious gaze. She waits for a follow-up, a sentence, anything. It never comes.

She frowns. She's not mad, only disappointed.

The sun begins to rise over the city, signaling the start of a new day. Knowing this, Yunjin adjusts her jacket and rises from her seat. You never told her once.

She walks through the door, and steps outside-but not before turning and taking one last concerned look at you. You quietly mouth 'Love you,' and surprisingly, she smiles. The Yunjin you know and love.

'Love ya.'

-----

(A/N: againsorryfornotpostingmuchlatelyohgodivebeensobusy-

Ginger/red hair Yunjin didn't grow on me at first. Then the Good Bones teaser dropped. The strut. The attitude. The fact they allowed her to walk around in her bra and panties. What the fuck. I've been so down bad for her lately, and so are you. Looking forward to their new music! Thank you for reading!)

MORE THAN YOU KNOW (NMIXX HAEWON)

"Miss Haewon, please see me after class hours later. I would like to talk to you."

There it is. A rather predictable bookend to another dull lecture. She saw it coming from the moment she walked into the classroom.

She absolutely loathes hearing it.

Despite the comically indignant scowl she shoots you on the way out-and the mocking jeers from her friends that elicit embarrassment-by the time the final bell rings, she couldn't wait to see you later on.

You're excited, too-but for all the wrong reasons.

She's the only thing keeping your passion for teaching alive.

-----

For the record, Haewon is not a bad student, not in the slightest. If anything, she's par for the course. She's not gonna be some summa cum laude, but she isn't a sorry case, either. And that's been the pattern with your students for years. They only care enough just to get by. Haewon is the most clear-cut example you can refer to.

Based on the rather intriguing stares she shoots at you, you'd be tricked into believing she's actually interested enough in improving her future performance in class. Peeking through the laptop, catching glimpses of everyone's grades. Her name is highlighted on the document, and the scores consist primarily of mid-eighties with some low-nineties. Clearly she's nowhere close to a flunk or a future dropout.

Better than the high seventies and low eighties that the rest of your class averages.

"Sir, how many times do we need to go over this. I'm doing well for myself," she remarks, giving you a look that says I told you so. The evidence is right in front of you, written in bold. "C'mon sir. Just let me go early today."

And that's when you make your first of many mistakes-feeding her the attention she craves. Where's this energy when it comes to your lectures, you wonder?

Before you even entertain the thought, the scene has already gone completely sideways. Here's a student with zero regard for following rules, and you've experienced your fair share of troublemakers. She's sitting on the desk, pale skin in plain view from the off shoulder cropped sweatshirt that barely qualifies for the dress code. You're looking-and she's keenly noticing.

"Maybe another time, sir?" Haewon reads your mind like an open book. She's purposely dressing improperly for two reasons: to piss off the higher-ups who hate her guts, and to make it easier for you to rip through her clothes. "I've got dance practice with the theater girls and I'm running late."

"Well for one, you can drop the honorifics," you reply, plainly, in a particularly weak effort to change the conversation. The attention you give her is short-lived; your focus returns to the unanswered emails and grades you need to fill. "Class hours are done for the day."

It's evidently not the response she wanted, because her arms are crossed and she's pouting. You have to admit, she looks cute acting like that, revealing clothes be damned.

"Sir." Haewon drawls out into a groan, bothered by the monotony of waiting when she has places to be. She won't go as far as to knock your laptop down, but she's considering it as a last resort. "You're being a bitch right now."

Anyone else in her position would get it-a verbal lashing that would get your teaching license rescinded and take you to court, but Haewon is the epitome of getting away with murder. You have no idea how she does it-how she manages to escape mostly unscathed from punishment. Even now while you drum on the keyboard, because you're allowing her to call you a bitch without consequence.

Maybe because you like her more than you would openly admit.

She sighs. It's a defeatist tone. A few moments later, you close your laptop and she perks up.

"Take a seat. I do want to talk to you about something important," you tell her, knowing one hundred percent certain she's not getting off your desk.

Haewon can't help herself to a snarky comment. "Damn. Finally."

By every conceivable account, this should be awkward, if not outright wrong. She's still an undergrad, you tell yourself, staring into her sharp, alluring eyes. For as rebellious and as unruly as Haewon acts, she still listens to you. Hell, you're the only professor she bothers to attend classes regularly for. She'd tell you she cares in her own twisted way. Look at how she dresses, for one. Your thoughts consist of mainly her in some cumbersome position, her lips letting out these desperate, heavy gasps. Your hands squeezing her taut breasts; the way her shirt accentuates the curves of her chest drives your imagination wild. You can spend all day planning how you intend to fuck her-

"Sir, you're staring again." A snap back to the present, where she's grinning and leaning close to your face. So pretty. "I get it-I'm hot, but we're on borrowed time, sir."

"Right. I honestly forgot what I was gonna tell you," you mindlessly drawl, searching through your desk for something. Something to temporarily distract you from the inevitability of the end. The rest of your paperwork lies unattended in the faculty room, you remember, but you're not gonna step foot inside that place-not when the other professors are still around. Time is money. "But it's definitely not your grades, that's for certain."

"What's it about, then?" Her eyes continue to follow your every move.

You place a folded sheet of paper between you. She grabs it and reads through the brief content. The response is concerning.

"You're leaving?" Haewon turns to you, stunned and gobsmacked. A rare expression coming from someone who's usually indifferent toward everything and everyone.

Genuinely, you have no idea how to explain yourself. You had this all planned out since the beginning of the year; these two semesters will be your last, you were completely certain. You could have told anyone in the faculty. They're decent people-as decent as they can be during the few times you actually interact with them-but they were merely coworkers and nothing more. You could have told your wife, who just so happens to be a fellow professor and colleague, but she's one of the reasons why you're leaving in the first place.

Word spreads like wildfire around campus, so you know to be careful, but this is straight recklessness. You call it mutual trust.

"Been thinking about it for a while," you say, rather quietly, trying your hardest not to look her way.

"Let me guess," she says, breaking the pretense of sympathy and concern for her usual caustic tone. "No one cares about your shitty class?"

You're not remotely bothered by her comment, even if she's speaking the truth. Though she could have used a nicer word besides shitty. "Part of it, yeah."

"I seriously don't understand why there's gotta be a religious unit for a business degree," she adds, fascinated by her own question. Even more so than listening to your lectures. "I don't get it."

"I don't get it either." Truthfully, you seriously question why you're even teaching here to begin with.

You're employed by one of the top universities in the country; every parent would sacrifice everything just for their children to study here. It pays well by teaching standards, but the bar is in hell. Despite the prestige, the overall experience is no different than your time in public high school. Most of the students who do attend come from rich backgrounds; people who use the place as a dick measuring contest to see who is the richer person. These entitled scholars who are always on their phone-one of their many phones-and cheat to get ahead.

It happens so often on the regular that you eventually stopped caring.

"Hmm," Haewon thinks to herself, running through every piece of information she has to weaponize against you. She knows you better than anyone, mainly because you share personal life details like they're the daily newspaper. Not to mention the very reason she comes to the classroom in the afternoons: you.

Then she comes to a rather off the wall conclusion. "It's Miss Myoui, isn't it?"

You squint your eyes. Haewon glints up. A small opening.

After a brief pause, she piles on, smirking. "Did I touch a nerve? Poor you," she says, shooting you a mocking pout that you mostly ignore. "I guess you haven't had some good pussy in a while. I mean, there's no reason for me to be here other than the fact that Miss Myoui isn't letting you clap her ass. Maybe the rumors are true then-"

Before she continues to spill more information that anyone shouldn't be allowed to know, you fire back with a sharp glare. She cheekily grins. By ignoring the flashing red light right in front of you, you're purposefully walking towards your own downfall. It's a trap; you know this. You know Haewon more than any other student. All her little tricks, all her crafty schemes.

God, you can already see how this is gonna end.

"So I'm right?" Haewon tilts her head, leaning slightly forward. Her smug expression, word choice, and mocking tone tests your patience-including your blood levels-and you're failing by the minute. "Trouble at home?"

Your response? Nothing. Going word for word with her ultimately results in a losing effort; previous conversations with her leave you more tongue tied and in a rut by the end. Haewon is so natural at getting under people's skin. It's what she gets off on-wrapping professors and superiors around her finger with her mouth. And more often than not, she's charismatic and charming enough that it's entertaining, but no one wants to openly admit it except you.

It's how she's able to read you like an open book. Let personal information slip so seamlessly. The numerous discussions regarding her underperformance in class lead into intimate sessions where you and Haewon become more acquainted with each other. A little too comfortable at times, but you can see where and why she acts the way she does. And you had come to the conclusion that you can't fix her. Many have tried-and failed. She does whatever she wants, and she'll end up getting away with it.

You slide your laptop aside, ready to dance with the devil, going against everything you swore against. "Mmm-not quite, but you're halfway there."

Haewon smiles and her eyes flutter. Not in a patronizing, condescending way, but the sweet kind. Genuine. The soft side she'll only let you see. "Miss Myoui not letting you clap, sir?"

"She does," you say, dour. And I already told you class hours are done. Please don't call me sir."

"Right. Sir." Haewon's playful tone trails off with that loathsome word. She can't help but smirk; it's second nature to her. She'll claim that you fell for that bait, but that was deliberate, you'll say-even if she refuses to believe you.

After a brief impasse, "So-sir," she follows, using her eyebrows and cadence to tease, her hands on the edge of her pants, teasing some underwear, "You need to fuck me again? Now? Is Miss Myoui not letting you have some lately?"

Turning your gaze away and to the desk, "About Mina," you reply, drumming your fingers on the table, deep in thought, "I'm planning to divorce her soon."

"Huh?" Her eyes shoot wide, her expression rather surprised at the sudden revelation. You'd think by how she teases you about your wife, she'd have a much more subdued reaction. Considering she knows facets of your rather strange relationship with Mina. "Well, I would tell you'd be fumbling big time, but you should know-"

"She's cheating on me. I know."

Now she's genuinely shocked, completely caught unaware. She'd assume you to be particularly naive and clueless about campus rumblings, especially since she'd never see you outside of the classroom and in the faculty room. "Well damn. I honestly thought you didn't know."

"Can't say it would be the first time I've heard about it," you say, turning to face her again, cold and gloomy. Pointing your finger at her, "And before you say anything, no, I didn't catch her getting eaten out in the faculty room."

You say that with the utmost sincerity-and sarcasm.

Haewon hesitates, before answering, rather "I figured." She understands that your poor eyes have seen some things you shouldn't be seeing.

Truthfully, you're amazed she hasn't brought up the subject a lot earlier. Since the end of the previous academic year, you've noticed Mina's sudden changes in behavior. She's sending more text messages telling you she'll arrive home later than usual, the frequent faculty outings she chooses to attend, the cancellation of plans scheduled months in advance-the biggest of which, a dinner date at a particularly expensive five-star restaurant on the other side of town that has a notorious 18 month waitlist that you miraculously booked for your anniversary. And that was five months ago.

People change, but Mina is an entirely different person to you now. You can hardly recognize her.

"I guess I should say I'm sorry for what happened," Haewon says, pretty modest and empathetic in tone, but even during serious moments, she can't help but remark, "But you were kind of loser material for a woman like her."

You can only stare back, annoyed. She chuckles, heartily. Seeing your animated, cartoonish expressions only serves to amuse her even further and fuel her addiction of teasing you.

"Ah, I fucking love you, sir. You're my favorite professor for this reason." In an instant, the somber facade falls apart and she's back to being her usual coy self.

"Among other things?" you question.

"Such as?" Haewon looks confused. It's a bluff; you're calling it now. "Such as what, sir?"

Placing a hand on her knee, you're creating friction so intense that her mouth goes agape and her breaths grow heavier. "Such as the fact that no one eats you out better than I do," you reply, inflection transitioning from formal to low.

"Oh?" She doesn't believe what's happening to you. "Sir," her cadence dances in such a melodic and sultry way it's gonna ruin you faster than anything she's done so far. "You have no evidence to prove-"

Suddenly, Haewon goes tongue tied, unable to finish her sentence. That's a first. And you didn't need to lift a finger or use your voice. Your other hand finds solace around her toned waist, exploring her tummy, and it's thankfully not restricted by any layer of clothing. So much pristine skin to claim as yours, you begin to lose your restraint-and there isn't much left to begin with.

"I can take you to the faculty room and show you," you mumble against her belly, the cold breath tickling her flesh that she trembles. Haewon's senses float off, her vision growing dark as her hands impulsively latch onto your shoulders. In return, you peck her navel, her abs, until you reach her abdomen, a hair's breadth away from her chest. Between kisses, you continue to feed into her want, "Or I can give you an example right now."

"Please," Haewon finds enough clarity to cup your face up and meet her in a lengthy passionate liplock. This is what she wanted from the start. "Indulge me, sir."

The only thing keeping you two apart is the laptop dangling on the opposite side of the table, almost pushed aside while you were making out. You quickly place it on a random desk before closing the two classroom door curtains.

When you return to Haewon, she's sitting atop your desk, playfully swinging her legs, smiling modestly. It's only now that you recognize how pretty she looks. But behind that meek appearance is a demon, a temptress that only sees you as a conduit for pleasure. In her eyes, the only purpose you have to give is sex, and nothing more.

So push your chair forward when you sit down. Haewon's legs are already spread wide, but the pants remain on them. She doesn't like to do it herself.

"Won't give me a cheating discount?" you say, looking up at her coy grin, placing your hands around the hem of her trousers.

"Technically-" she trails off, kissing you, "You're cheating on her with me, sir." Followed by another. Each one deeper, more intimate than the last. "Don't act all innocent now, especially when we've been doing this for months."

Then, Haewon consumes you-as in, devours you. Grabs you and makes out with you with a passion you wish she'd present during class hours. You'd be content to remain in this position for the rest of the day, even if the clothes never come off; he's so passionate and fervent that it's intoxicating. But it's all planned. Elaborate. You're familiar with her more than you ever want to be: how she loves to unbutton your shirt while kissing you, how she mumbles and hums softly against your mouth, how she whispers desires that end up becoming realized after the foreplay. In reality, she's the one dictating the pace, the one calling all the shots, and you're merely an instrument she uses to indulge herself.

And she wants it: everywhere, in every position-something you find too much to handle, and she's already quite the handful. But it's merely a delay of the inevitable; you're going to fuck Haewon, you're gonna pour all your cum inside her, and you can figure out the rest the morning after.

More often than not, your shirt ends up unbuttoned, but not completely undone. One of two layers keeping your impulsive desires in check. As you work Haewon's pants down her legs, most of your lesser instincts are shown in full display. It takes almost tearing your own fingers off your very hands not to rip through her panties. Meanwhile, she's lounging on the desk, enjoying the sight of you reverting back to something primal.

The way you fondle her creamy thighs, never finding their beginning and end, is like beholding a sculpture crafted by the gods. They're meant to be worshiped, to be handled reverently.

And Haewon guides you through the process, commanding you like she has authority over you. Titles do not matter-they never have. "Keep going," she says, as you leave delicate kiss marks down her thighs, slowly burying yourself into the inviting presence of her pussy. Peeking through the near-nonexistent layer of fabric, she shifts the lift of her legs, perching on your shoulders as she forces you into her suffocating warmth.

"Show me," she gasps, brushing your hair with her hand, and that's what sets the rest into motion.

Her legs clutch you into a breathless hold. God, she's killing you slowly, and you don't mind it one bit. At this point, you have nothing to lose. You might as well treat this as your last supper, your final meal before you have to say goodbye. She can strangle you with her thighs while you drag your tongue up and down her folds, suck on her clit, take in all her nectar-it doesn't change the fact that Haewon is gonna fucking end you.

You might as well repay the favor.

And despite throwing caution to the wind, Haewon appears unprepared. Dazed and confused by the overwhelming sensation burning through her nerves, she trembles-and moans. She couldn't be any less subtle if she tried; hearing her hit notes you never thought she's capable of hitting only serves to be a minor distraction from her pulsating heat. You're relentless, slowly picking away at her senses, at her sensitive cunt, knowing that no one can eat her out as well as you do.

"S-sir." Haewon can only muster up a single word before her mouth fills the room with nothing but air.

Deep down, you despise the rather obstructive yet comfortable position you're in. Your tongue brushes against Haewon's folds, going back and forth to taste of her warmth and her clit. The rest of her frame lays atop the desk, trembling, unable to keep herself steady under your grip. She's lost you somewhere in between, clinging onto the edges of the table for support. You can only imagine her jaw agape, her expressions twisting in pleasure, wriggling and tossing her head around as she aimlessly tries to find some semblance of control.

Her mouth is the only tool she can use to make some sense of this overwhelming bliss. And even that doesn't amount to much. 'Shit,' 'so good,' 'don't stop-' these are only some of the things she groans out as you trap her in a whirlpool of her own ecstasy. It's still not enough. You want to prove her wrong; you want to remind her what's important, and the only way you can make sure she truly understands if she fucking cums all over your face.

So while Haewon writhes and makes a damn mess of your desk, you continue to feast on her pretty cunt. She's making sure every person in the building knows how good your tongue is, and it's in character with how unabashedly shameless she behaves in front of everyone. Her legs kick sharply against your chair, so you end up where you were supposed to be from the beginning-on your knees. And yet it doesn't deter you; if anything, you grow more attached to her pussy, savoring every taste and drop, taking piece of every little part of her as yours.

You can't wait to explore the rest of her body and claim it as yours. On the off chance you're able to rip her shirt off, your hands roam her tight, lithe figure. You're met by layers of fabric, frustrated at the inability to grab her breasts in their natural form. She grabs you by the wrists; it's a miracle she's able to feel you through the waves crushing her to the desk. You suck on her clit hard. She lets out this guttural moan that sounds violent in nature, like you're hurting her, when you're actually doing the exact opposite.

And it's how you play off each other for the most part. Your need to get Haewon naked is only matched by her desperation to cum. She doesn't need to tell you directly how much she wants to. Her hands guide you beneath her shirt, and you press on the underside of her boobs in appreciation. You're playing a dangerous game; you have no intention of letting go.

Surprisingly, Haewon holds up well. One look and it might appear that she's a complete wreck: how her body trembles unceasingly, how she has half her shirt lifted to give you a better view of her chest for when you eventually come up for air, how helpless she is at even the slightest touch. You made her like this. It's a habit she's used to by now; she's learned that a figure like hers is meant to be admired, to be used.

Before you grow comfortable with the habit, the idea that you can eat her out on the desk for hours, Haewon cums.

She keens and shudders through her surprise orgasm. It's aligned with her playful nature to cum without your knowing, even though the signs were there all along. Your tongue works through the torrent of fluid, then the wave of slick that you drink up. Lap whatever your satiated bud allows. You can see remnants of her climax spill down the desk and to the floor, to her pants.

Even now, you're still learning something new about your students. For one, you never knew Haewon squirts.

The wet desk would make for a perfect reference picture for when she questions your legitimacy again-but you have better ways of explaining yourself.

You give Haewon no reprieve; she mewls and whimpers as you lick her folds clean, till you settle into soft, gentle kisses. The situation is all sorts of fucked; she has places to be and friends to meet, but you have her on top of your desk, keening after eating her out and making her cum without a care. It's gonna take an essay's worth of explaining the glaringly wet patches on her clothes and deep red marks over her skin.

Truthfully, she'd rather be with you than with her overbearing friends-but you won't hear it directly from her lips.

Speaking of, you hear a phone ring. Haewon cranes her neck in the direction of her bag. "Sir, I need my phone." She huffs, gasping for air, each word spaced out between deep breaths.

Regretfully, it takes every bit of your resolve to release your tongue from her warm cunt. You rummage through her bag and hand the phone over to her. It's about picking up the pieces now, salvaging whatever you can make of the mess you made, albeit there's hardly anything to save, even yourself.

"Don't." Haewon uses her loose toes to point at you, shifting herself into a sitting position on the desk. You're halfway done with the first button on your shirt when she stops you. She's tapping through her phone, texting some bullshit excuse to her friends. Knowing her, they're most likely no better than her; they might be playing into your little secret, too. All it takes is one person, one word of mouth, before information spreads around like wildfire.

Like everything else about her, you had mostly left it up to interpretation. Forcing details out of Haewon is a near-impossible task. You were never really a good negotiator. The deal usually ends up like this: her panties for a bonus in her grades, her lips for a signed excuse letter, and if she was really in the mood, her pussy for a cheat sheet. Sometimes,

She sets her phone aside on the desk, hopping off the table to lay her hands on your exposed chest. Momentarily kissing you, she whispers, "Sir, I told them I would be a little late today. You should know better by now."

Her fingers wring around the collar of your button up shirt, eyes ablaze with reinvigorated lust, lips curled in a pleasant smile. You're so enamored with her, it drives you crazy. Even when she pushes you onto your chair, even when she rips the already undone shirt off your body, all you can do is pay attention to the stars in her eyes. Her warm, wanton gaze-both charming and alluring in all the right ways. She knows how to use every part of herself to near perfection.

The rest of your clothes couldn't come off any faster. Your pants and boxers pool around your ankles, followed shortly by a dark cropped sweatshirt. You're not given any time to savor the perfection that is Haewon's naked figure; she's straddled on your lap, stroking your hard cock with a delicate grip. She smirks, and she has every right to look smug. You're left breathless, under pressure; if only you can see yourself in the mirror and see how needy you look, and the utter control Haewon has over you.

And you allow her; this is her specialty, this is what she's built for-to fucking end you.

If your words allow you, you'd command her to get on her knees, suck your cock and take a warm load all over her face; this is the ideal position to make the move. But you can't. Not when you're missing the point.

Haewon is on the edge of your lap, running her hand around your cock, gathering spurts of precum on her nails and finger pads. She's still winded from before, slow in her movements. The naughty look she gives your body never grows old.

"I hope you don't mind if I ask you a question," she starts, looking down at the little mess she's making on your thigh. You're too overwhelmed to breathe, let alone say a word.

"Be honest with me. I'm being serious for once."

And she sounds like she means it. You gulp your throat as you enter the unknown.

Her eyes flicker up to meet yours, her expression deep in thought, something she's not usually seen doing. And you feel the heat gradually building on your lap, but you're paralyzed by anxiety for the sensation to register. She runs the other hand through hair to take a good luck at you: your rather sweaty face, somewhere between pleasure and tense.

"Tell me," she sighs, running a hand down your shoulder to your elbow, before continuing, "Am I the best student you've ever fucked?"

"Yes." The word comes out involuntarily, as if it were muscle memory. Like your body knows, and it knows itself better than anyone or anything else.

It draws a piqued reaction from Haewon. She raises an eyebrow, unconvinced. "And what about Yoona?"

"And what about her?"

A reply you end up regretting almost immediately. Haewon doesn't take bullshit for an answer, as evident by the cold, dour stare on her face. If there's anyone who knows the ins and outs of university, it's her.

It doesn't take long for you to cave in. "She's so tight," you admit, sounding like a guilty criminal being interrogated. "But you're still the best, I swear."

"And what about Yuna? That exchange student Lily? Miss Minatozaki? You say that to just about anyone."

In an instant, she goes from curious and passionate to downright frightening. It's not supposed to be like this; normally it's you who has the authority. Haewon can go on and on for hours if she wanted to. She has all the leverage, all the evidence, all the power to cause the end of everything, your life included. But she only wants one thing: the truth.

"They're nothing compared to you. Promise. You're still my favorite student."

To a certain extent, you're right; Haewon is your favorite, but for all for the wrong reasons. It has nothing to do with teaching her anything other than being a good toy, because deep down, she's about as irredeemable as your peers make her out to be. Really, it's about using her body, fucking her, pushing her to the absolute limits-anything to get your mind out of the numbing, monotonous work of being an actual professor. There are many good girls in class, including the names she mentions in passing, but this is a stark reminder that Haewon is yours, and you belong to Haewon.

"Then show me."

And to drive the point even further, she sinks down on your lap, pressing her weight on your crotch-until her pussy meets your cock and you both disappear into the sea of pleasure again.

Haewon throws her head back, and she's never looked more vulnerable, not even when you had her laid out on the desk. All this flesh and body to claim, and you have no clue where to begin. But that's the least of your problems when she begins to glide up and down, rocking your lap with slow, agonizing thrusts. You end up blanking out and caring about the friction in your hips instead.

The slip of your cock in and out of her pussy when she rides you. Your palms press against her waist while you watch her slowly come undone: the moans, curses, and every sound in between, the rapidly twisting expressions, the hypnotic jiggle of her chest. Soon, you find a steady rhythm to match, and everything becomes effortless. Both of you pushing and pulling against each other's bodies in an effort to get deeper. You forget you're a professor and her a student, only two souls in need of sex during some trying times in your lives.

In a way, you're both meant to be. Fate is a strange entity.

Then Haewon regains some clarity, enough to be kissing you, moaning directly in your ear, demanding your gaze. Even when her hole swallows your cock, she still wants your attention. And even while you have it so deep in her cunt that she's mewling, struggling for oxygen, she manages to form a coherent sentence.

"Tell me I'm the tightest. Tell me I have the best pussy you ever fucked."

God, she's so fucking tight you can't fully comprehend it. Perhaps even more, and you're used to using her. Maybe it's all that pent-up frustration toward your dead end job, toward Mina, that makes her clench tighter. That's now how pussy works; you're just stretching her out really hard, but you have nothing sensible to conclude with. What you can tell, however, is that you needed this-and you needed it badly.

You're thankful you closed off the doors and curtains to the classroom, because the last thing anyone needs to see and hear is the sight of Haewon riding you while you both moan about how good the other feels.

"Love this pussy," you murmur, breathing against her collarbone, wanting a taste of her taut nipple. She has you in a tight bearhug that binds your hands around her waist. "Fuck-so-fucking-tight-the best-"

And that's all she needed to hear. Every word-every sound-slips from her lips like it hurts, but she's in total bliss. She moves her hips against the roll of your cock with deep emphasis, like fitting puzzle pieces together, and it sends you. You're left even more breathless, more in awe at how fucking well Haewon takes your length. As if it was always meant for her.

Curses and praise aside, she's never one to talk during sex. But then she makes the faintest comment about how your cock fits so snug inside her, and you honestly just lose it.

Once in a while, a certain inquiry is brought up. What's your favorite thing about me, Haewon asks, when it's supposed to be the opposite. You're supposed to give out this very question to your students as a way to improve your teaching style and maybe come off as an approachable authority figure. As expected, it wasn't helpful in the slightest. She then would suddenly come to you at the most random of times with this particular question, and you'd be preoccupied with numerous things-home life, school activities, the usual-to find an answer.

But right there, right as you spear deep into her tight, needy cunt, is where you figure it all out. It's all in the little details. Your hand going up and down her arched back. The squelching of her pussy against your cock. The furious sound of your flesh slapping against hers. Her loose, shrilly whines while you bury your face between her chest, begging you harder. Her hands tangled with your hair and nape. All that while she's bouncing on your lap at such a feverish pace; she's going to break the chair you're sitting on.

Before you know it, your tongue has traveled all over the most sensitive parts of her body: nipples, neck, and even pits.

Everything about Haewon is so ridiculous, you can't believe how much of a challenge she has been for the longest time that you've forgotten how easily she folds. Like she's meant to be used.

But no punishment is suitable enough; no amount of discipline can change her. If anything, it only fuels her goal to thread the needle even further.

"Gonna fucking cum, Haewon," you hiss against her ear, blurring the line between kissing and biting her collarbone. Using all the strength in your hips, you have her legs spread as wide as they can over the chair, over your thighs. The squirt she releases as she crashes on your lap serves to fan the flames in your cock even brighter. It's all but inevitable that you'll pour it all inside her, and she wouldn't want it any other way.

If you had any semblance of a spine, you'd never let her hear the end of it. The idea that her pussy isn't getting its fair share of seed disgusts her. She needs to learn what boundaries are, and how not to cross said lines. At least there's one lesson you can impart on her before you split, but you'll save that for another day, because you cum.

You fuck Haewon so hard, she turns into mush that melts in your grasp. Forget the guttural groan you made; the aftermath is alarming. Her pussy drips with a huge load pooling on the chair and trickling down her thighs. You make sure you bury yourself to the hilt and unload inside her. The evidence is undeniable; from the smell to the sight of clothes and cum, there's no concealing it-if there was even anything to hide, because your salacious activity could easily be heard anywhere in the building.

And lost in the madness is your train of thought; your body is reeling from the aftershocks of your orgasm, and you simply idle. Let your cock stay in Haewon's warmth as long as possible. Let the setting sun bathe her pretty face in that lovely afterglow. Let her slowly recover and realize that you've been right all along about everything.

"Sir, you came inside me a lot," she says, a little over a whisper, trying to take record of your work. Her eyes stay glued to the puddle of cum dripping down her leg, running a finger to taste you.

"For my favorite student, why wouldn't I," you tell her, caressing your hand up and down her back. Even through the climax, you never stopped.

The brief, peaceful respite is interrupted by, you guessed it, another phone. This time, it's not Haewon's. She moves gingerly bending down, almost tumbling over in an attempt to retrieve your phone from the depths of your pocket. Your only contribution is ensuring she doesn't bash her head on the floor.

"Well, well, well," she comments, looking at your phone with a familiar, sarcastic tone before handing it over to you. "Speak of the devil."

On the screen are two missed calls and one new text, all from none other than Mina herself. A grim reminder of the reality you live in.

The message is as predictable as it reads. She won't be home till late in the evening, which might as well be dawn of the next day.

"Miss Myoui is getting it. A hundred percent sure."

She delivers it with such conviction that it might as well be fact. You'd be upset about the very thought-anyone would-but a glance at Haewon gives you an idea. One that leaves her curious.

"Sir? Why are you looking at me like that?"

You can already imagine it: the image of railing Haewon everywhere. On the table, against the wall, under the showers. Maybe if you're lucky enough, Mina will go through that door and be greeted by the sight of her least favorite student getting fucked by her husband from behind.

You show her the text, and just like that, you're both one and the same. A look of pride crosses her face, as if she's accomplished an important milestone-and it's quite a momentous one.

And what better way to celebrate than inside the comfort of your home.

-----

(A/N: Been down bad for Haewon since December. Also, NMIXX is actually good now! Their latest EP has some bangers, highly recommend Run for Roses and Passionfruit. The setting might be a bit more on the bleaker/less wholesome side, but I hope it's not uncomfortable/upsetting. Thank you for reading!)

STARGAZING (TWICE MINA)

With the way things are going, Mina's begging for trouble. And not the usual slap of the wrist kind that celebrities get away with-the kind that's scandalous, career damning.

She's so close to falling apart.

And as you watch her come undone-the very image that defines her gradually disappears-you can't help but think: she deserves this.

-----

If there's any clear-cut takeaway, it's this: Mina is designed to be gorgeous, and she plays the part to near perfection.

That's the whole point. Here's a sea of media outlets and paparazzi, accompanied by flashing cameras and screaming fans on one side. On the other, stars and figures from different fields, all dressed to the nines and emanate a distinguishable aura. The 'I'm better than you' kind. No amount of modest smiles and perfectly curated PR-fluff can disguise the noxious air of celebrity on the red carpet.

Then you look at Mina, wearing the hell out of that backless dress, designed by none other than yours truly (you). You couldn't have asked for a better muse. She carries herself and your brand around with a confident smile-with pride-seemingly indifferent to the raucous screams telling her to look this way, that way. Wherever her profile turns, cameras illuminate the crowd in near-perfect unison.

It's a slow motion fashion moment.

As if she couldn't look any prettier, she brushes her hair with a quick, delicate swipe of her hand with queenly grace. The cameras live for moments like these. It's what goes viral online; it's what gets social media buzzing. She's a K-pop idol, the media will say and it's true, but she doesn't look out of place with the so-called elite. If anything, she blends in seamlessly, rich, quiet, and enigmatic personality and all.

Cameras continue to follow her as she walks through the carpet. She greets a few other celebrities in the vicinity; mostly Hollywood actresses and artists before she disappears behind the steps of the building. Throughout the entire ordeal, you were never on her mind, not even during interviews, nor when she was in clear view, even though you made her what she is now. All she can think about is herself and her character. That's how fame works.

You don't even get a text. Your only reference is a note that reads 23:00.

-----

The next time you see Mina is hours later, at the promised time. One slender leg enters the backseat of the vehicle. She remains mostly untouched, leaving the gala looking the same as when she entered. She's considerate enough to wave and give a flying kiss to the crowd, who unsurprisingly, go crazy for her. It's a convincing act. You would, too, if you weren't always by her side for ninety percent of the day.

She breathes out this deeply relieved sigh once the door slams shut. She's tired-of being someone else, and just exhausted in general; she's been in front of a mirror since five in the morning and it's almost midnight by the time the event ends. You can tell she'd rather be in her hotel suite than anywhere else.

So you drive. No words. Just hit the road and get out of there.

Even late into the night, Paris is still bustling and lively. You don't make it past three streets before being met by traffic ahead. It's an agonizing crawl. The satnav says you'll arrive at your hotel by 2:00 in the morning. Mina probably won't make it by midnight, at this point because she's on the verge of falling unconscious, resting her head on the door. Her heels are set on the opposite end, with her lower half resting along the edges of the backseat into a couch position.

Even when she's asleep, she's still gorgeous.

"Miss?" you gently call to her, snapping her from her tired daze. She gives you a mild stare through the rear-view mirror, unable to speak.

"We're gonna be held up by traffic. You want something to eat?" you ask, knowing she likely won't take anything more than a handful of fries or half a burger.

"Sure. Whatever." Mina sounds cold, a little annoyed somewhat. The past day has been unkind to her health; she arrived at the airport yesterday after a different schedule and barely had less than five hours of rest before dedicating the entire day for a gala she had contractual obligations to attend. She couldn't say no even if she wanted; she's got her whole schedule curated and planned out for months.

You have more time to get her dresses planned out and prepared out than she has to breathe.

And time is unkind to both of you right now. Traffic trogs along at a snail's pace. The arrival time on the satnav moves further and further away. Sunrise will meet you above a red light at this rate. How anyone gets around in this city considering the number of events that are happening all at once is beyond you. You only drive through Paris a handful of times a year, all for the same reason, and you abhor the idea-let alone the experience-every single time.

It's difficult enough to wait, especially in this late of hours, when money and careers are on the line. Even more challenging is keeping a cool head and withholding yourself from using your instincts against the trusted systems of the algorithm. Mina will call you many things. She'll call you insane. You don't mind; it'll be on the lower end of insults and comments you've heard from the so-called 'elite.'

At the end of the day, you're just simply following orders.

You swerve off the main road, into narrow alleys and streets that aren't registered on any official map. Anywhere that can give you a sense of progress and hold momentum. You drive. You make liberal use of your klaxon against anything and anyone. You go around in circles, sometimes looking at the satnav if it's kind enough to give you a shorter, quicker path. In your haste, you completely overlook the star, the celebrity you're meant to protect and coddle like fine art, and cracks begin to form.

"Shit!" Mina fastens the seatbelt, in distress and wide awake from your uncharacteristically aggressive driving. She lifts her head. Pierces your gaze through the rearview mirror with a mixture of panic, concern, and frustration. All that hours spent in the makeup room to look perfect, down to the smallest of details, coming undone within a few minutes.

She seemed rather proud of her appearance, too.

Of course, her demands bounce off your ears-or ring through like white noise. You only know your task. Get her safe.

Even though it's your very idea, you forget about the thought of eating, too. You've passed by a couple of McDonalds along the way, but are blinded by tunnel vision to recognize a single one. It's not a big loss; she's as tired of eating fast food as much as you are. It isn't good for her image right now, either.

Eventually, you do make it back to her hotel. A little over midnight, but still not as early as you wanted to be. You look at the status of your passenger princess. She's about as coddled as a five year old playing with her doll. A mess.

When you open up the door for her to step out, it's a dramatic moment that gathers everyone's attention and fixes every eye. It's loud.

It also so happens to be empty in the area.

The way she slaps you in the cheek echoes throughout the valet like the sharp crack of a whip, or the pop of a firework. Fucking hell, she hits hard. For a dainty woman like Mina, she's surprisingly strong. "What the hell is wrong with you?" she snaps, cold and bitter.

You find no mistake in what you did. In fact, you believe you're doing her a service. Tomorrow, she'll be at the airport and out of the country faster than when she came in. She doesn't have to think about you for the foreseeable future. You only see a moody, ill-tempered celebrity frustrated that circumstances haven't gone her way. Chalk it up to fatigue, but you can't be arsed to explain yourself or react accordingly at this point.

She's also pretty when she's angry, you can't help but think. Not the pouty, cute, wholesome kind-the 'I'm gonna rip your throat' out kind of ire. Sometimes you forget your job and admire just how gorgeous Mina is. You're no different than the paparazzi or the average fan.

It makes her heated. You're mentally smirking.

It would be a waste to fight over something as petty as reckless driving this late. No one got hurt; not a single traffic light or speed limit was violated. But her heart jumped a little bit when she expected the least. In her eyes, it's a reasonable enough incident to show some attitude and assert her status over you.

But not tonight.

Instead, you take her by the wrist and lead her to the alley beside the hotel, away from potential cameras and prying eyes. She yelps, but you slip a hand around her mouth so she remains quiet. Mina is too tired to show some resistance.

"Listen here, Miss Myoui," you tell her, pointing your finger directly at her. "I did everything right to make sure you have a fine, comfortable experience in Paris. Did your dress, drove you around, everything. What I did was save you a few hours of sleeping in the car. I never asked for anything from you, so don't come acting like an ungrateful brat."

"Fuck you." Mina raises her palm, readying another thunderous, face cracking slap as a threat. "I could have done all that instead if I wanted to."

"Need I remind you who made the dress that you're wearing?"

She freezes, unable to find some form of retaliation or rebuttal.

"Thought so."

"Well what am I supposed to do, then? Get on my knees and worship you as my lord and savior?" she asks.

Suddenly, something clicks inside your head. An idea.

"That-" you pause, mentally noting the entire sequence in a flash, "Actually, that's not a bad idea."

"I'm not doing it." Mina rolls her eyes, turning her gaze away and crossing her arms. Somehow, she's managed to recognize your intent so quickly. What isn't surprising is her natural cleverness and intelligence. "Not tonight. Not after what you did."

"I didn't do anything."

"That's what you believe, asshole." She shakes her head. "Just-let me go."

"Would be such a shame if a rumor spread around then that you were spotted in the bathrooms with one of the billionaires," you say, blunt in your threat. "Wouldn't you hate that? I hear there was a tabloid photo of you spotted with one of the presidential candidates too-"

"You lie." Mina's eyes glare at you. You don't flinch.

She's not wrong. You're only telling a half-truth. It's true that there were billionaires who attended. It would be a strange event if there weren't any present, in Paris of all places. The report of a presidential candidate showing up is legitimate as well, but that's as much as you know as the general public. What goes on inside, you have no knowledge of.

"And what happened there was nothing at all," she adds. "So quit trying to blackmail me and just let me fucking rest."

"Then explain this to me." You point at the dress she's wearing-your dress-and find different sized patches where they shouldn't belong. They're not by design; they're clearly the result of some kind of external tampering or meddling. Around where her legs should be. Near her tummy. The gala is an indoor event, yet it looks as if she had been soaked in some capacity.

Something's quite off.

"So?" Mina defends herself, unwilling to concede. "Got spilled by drinks, and you don't really care if it gets ruined."

While it's true you usually don't mind your dresses getting ruined, it comes at a price. "I'm not mad. And yes, I don't care if you do fuck all with that dress. Hell, that candidate is very lucky he got to clap that-"

"Shut up!"

By instinct, Mina slaps you again.

You chuckle. The sore redness of your cheek isn't going to silence you.

As she tries to walk away, you grab her by the wrist again. Pull her close to your chest. She trembles, but can't do anything to stop or shake you loose.

"So you admit? You got fucked by that candidate?"

"No!" Mina remains adamant in her tone. She twists your grip to free herself. "Just-fucking stop already!"

"Only if you blow me. Just a quickie."

"What? Why?"

"As remittance for the ruined dress, of course. Remember? Ruined dress, ruined cunt." You can't help but grin as you remind her of the terms of your agreement. It's not written in the contract, but a mutual trust shared between you and your muses.

Mina sighs. A deal is a deal, even if it's not signed on the dotted line. And she has the experience to show for it. Ultimately, she reluctantly agrees, sounding defeated in her response. "Fine. But after this, we're fucking done."

"I'm in a bit of a good mood today, so I don't want your pussy," you tell the disgruntled Mina, unbuckling your belt then unzipping your pants. "Not gonna lie, the thought of some future president fucking that cunt of yours makes me sick. Get on your knees."

God, it feels wrong, but you're enjoying every little moment of this, down to the finer details. The look of dissatisfaction on Mina's face. The fact you can get her flustered with your teasing. The fact she's obediently on her knees as you whip out your hard cock directly in front of her. She can tell you as many lies as she wants, but they have no firm ground to stand on. She's not some stuck-up star unlike many others in that gala, but even she needs to be humbled once in a while.

"His dick is better than yours, anyway. I won't miss this pathetic piece of shit," she tells you, gripping to the hem of your dress, dodging every attempt to slip your shaft between her lips.

All the more reason to plunge it deep in her throat.

"Is it? This piece of shit you love to ride on?" You grab your cock and pursue her evasive mouth. You have a hand planted on her scalp, holding her still, as she begrudgingly accepts your length between her lips slowly, in a losing effort to fight back. She gulps her throat, watching as her cheeks hollow, as drool begins to coat your sensitive shaft, until eventually, her seal is vacuum-tight and tension builds up in your groin. "This cock you want to use-fuck-"

Words fail you as you become reacquainted with the warmth of Mina's mouth. She bobs her head back and forth, slipping a hand around the base of your shaft to stroke. Your cock is poking the back of her throat, your senses relaxing at the pleasure coursing through your body. You feel yourself slipping away-at the cold, at the heat of her sweltering lips, at the layer of saliva that fills every inch of your length. It's all too much.

This is Mina's least favorite position. She'd rather have you beneath her most of the time, relentlessly bouncing on your cock till you're completely drained; it's how most encounters with her go to the point you simply give up and expect yourself on the mattress as soon as you enter her room. None of that matters now, not when she needs your very shaft to fill her thirsty, dry mouth, as a palette cleanse from the boring gala and because she needs you as much as she utterly hates you.

She doesn't like the thought of you above her. Her eyes can't be bothered to look up. It's a strange dynamic; she's the celebrity, she's supposed to have control, not you. Your hand tugs on her black hair, begging her for more, and it reinforces the idea. You love this. Mina, the quiet, cold personality that everyone wants to be like, is zealously sucking you off and you're helpless to how incredible she is. The suction of her throat. The drag of her tongue on your head, then on the sides. The passionate hum of satisfaction. You recognize the smug grin etched on the corner her lips while she doesn't bother to look back, knowing full well she can take you any way she wants and you'll fucking love it. She's so aggressive, yet perfectly paced.

And she moves like she can read your mind-cum and saliva dripping from the corners, her tongue running laps around your balls, her mouth devouring you entirely with each entrance. Small, whiny sounds that resemble a choke-they're nothing compared to the echoey moans you can't help but make. You're gasping for air as if she's punctured a hole in your lungs-and to an extent, she has. Your body instinctively has to remind itself they're leaning on air, because she's making your spine contort in ways they shouldn't be twisting.

Mina is quite used to this. The notion of having to suck a cock. Not just yours, but fans, higher-ups in suits, all kinds. She'll tell you yours is the best one, and you'll believe her. You can tell by personal experience. You shouldn't let control slip, especially now, when such power is rarely vested on you, but you can't help yourself. There's some urgency in handling her, but it might be a little too late. Especially when-

"Mina," you pant, and you sound so desperate. "So close, Mina. I'm so close. I'm gonna-"

She continues to create friction, and eventually fire. Her hands wring around your balls and your base, tightening the coil of pressure in your stomach and in your veins. Spiraling further and further out of control, you can feel your legs crumble in a last ditch attempt to hold on. With your remaining resolve, you cling to whatever semblance of clarity you can find.

And she plunges her lips further into your length. Her tongue descends lower, to the underside of your balls. None of that disdain and hate from moments ago can be found, only zeal and passion. It's not graceful in the slightest; it goes against everything her image represents, yet she's so damn good at it, you can't stomach the thought of her doing something this filthy, this obscene. The very idea breaks reality. Yet here she is, on her knees, a mouth filled by cock, encouraging you to cum without uttering a single word.

So you oblige her.

You don't give her the decency of asking. You just pour it all over her with reckless abandon. Yanking her by the scalp, swiftly pulling yourself away in the heat of climax, blasting thick warm seed all over her pristine features, using her visage as a canvas for all your repressed thoughts. Mina welcomes every drop, sticks her tongue out with an inviting stare, unfazed by all that hot load you're shooting directly at her. Her professionalism is practically hardwired, second nature to allow herself to be used this freely. It's more than personal satisfaction; it also pays the bills.

It's a win-win.

"Happy?" she asks, propping herself back on her feet, using the top of the dress to clean herself. Not a waste when it's sole purpose is to be one and done.

The mess around your groin-residue sticking on your pants-answers her question. You can only nod in agreement as you clumsily and slowly gather your bearings. She shakes her head, amused at your predicament, but proud of her work.

Mina acts nonchalant, walks back to the hotel while you still work through your trousers, as if nothing ever happened. As if you weren't moaning in public about how airtight her lips are around your cock. You hurriedly follow her, only to be met with a surprise waiting just past the entrance doors.

"I hope Paris has been kind to you so far, Miss Minari, because we certainly won't be."

Three comically mischievous men of similar stature and appearance, in nearly identical outfits (a simple shirt, coat, jeans and beret combination, how inspired) with the most cartoonishly evil looks on their faces. They could be anyone on the street. You can immediately tell they've been waiting for some time.

"Who are you?" you ask, stepping in front of your client. Mina looks nervous, quietly analyzing the three suspicious characters.

"Doesn't matter who we are, even if we tell you," replies the middle man, matter-of-factly. "We have no intention of hurting you."

"If that's the case, then please step aside. Miss Mina won't be taking any requests and she's very tired, sorry."

"I don't think so, buddy."

"What?"

"We heard everything. You lucky bastard," says the man on the left. "I don't think Mina seems to be tired at all. In fact, I believe she wants more of it!"

All eyes turn to the person of interest, who seems to be in denial. Mina, this cold, calculated star, appears to have a harsh, sudden reaction. Offended by the comment, she angrily retorts, "No? What the hell are you saying?"

"Yeah, you heard the guy." The third man steps forward, the other two close behind slowly approaching her. "It's all over you. Don't try to deny it. You enjoyed getting blasted all over that pretty face of yours!"

The three men nod in unison. You don't have a firearm or any weapon on hand, but you're willing to fight all three guys, even if you meet a terrible end. That's the likeliest outcome. Lady luck seems to have disappeared on your side, but it's part of the job, after all.

"Relax, girl. Again, we don't wish to hurt you or your bodyguard." The first man, the guy assuming leadership reiterates. It's as civil and diplomatic as it sounds, but the looming threat remains prevalent. And it doesn't do them any favors when they creep up towards both of you like wolves. "We just want what he has."

"And what is it?" Mina frowns, hiding herself behind you, peeking over the shoulder, trembling.

"Oh, you know what we want, Miss Minari. Give it to us and then we'll leave you alone."

Where's the security in this hotel, you wonder? The ground floor is dead empty of guests, which is to be expected, there's hardly anyone at the front desk, and there are zero guards at the valet that normally wait for the next car to pull up. It's midnight, what did you expect?

"Can't I give you guys some money instead?" she pleads, desperate. She's no longer hiding herself, but standing side by side with you. Shaking. Nervous. "Name your price and I'll pay it."

"I don't think that will work, miss." The three men remain adamant. They have you trapped against the corner of the entrance door. Neither of you can hardly move, let alone run. "We're in Paris. We can easily rob anyone for our keep."

Judging by the rather expensive watches and sneakers they all sport, they seem to have a point.

"But please, we just want one. One round with the finest Japanese idol in the business. That's it," the first man adds, his cohorts nodding in agreement.

Mina turns to you, calling your attention. "Hey." You're on high alert, waiting for the moment for hell to break loose. She merely stares. Nothing comes out of her mouth, just an expressive, seemingly strange gaze that doesn't register anything in your head, nor does it open up any sort of interpretation. And for a while, you don't understand what's happening or what's her intent. The three guys seemingly wait, shrugging whenever you eye any one of them. There's no rush; time seems to stop at that particular moment. You know their demand; you have ears. You just don't know if Mina is actually serious about caving to the pressure.

-----

(And fucking hell, you're so-so-screwed.)

You don't know if Mina will recover after this. Specifically, her career.

Clothes scatter everywhere in the room, with no regard for cleanliness or the host's decency. Mina is set in the middle of the mattress as its centerpiece. The star of the show. Her dress is bundled around her waist, baring her chest and legs, while every man is completely in the nude. She's spread on her fours, with the two subordinates lined up parallel in front of her, the third right behind her. You plan to join after, when everyone's seemingly tired, when you can have her all to yourself.

At least, that's what you think will happen. You know she's going to get used all night long. Mina's bracing for impact, hoping she can walk out in one piece after this.

You're holding your phone, ready to record every little thing that happens. It's not by their request, but your own personal desire. You love seeing it-the notion of Mina getting her comeuppance. The two men in front of her waste no time, stroking themselves hard and slapping their cocks right into Mina's face, spilling flecks of precum on her. You notice the giddiness in their expressions as they incline the idol's chin up, nothing but unbridled lust on their faces. The only thing missing is hurling her around and ragdolling her.

"Such a pretty face deserves all this cum," says the second guy. He's on the pudgier side, evidently not meant to be in the same atmosphere, let alone the same bed as Mina. "I'll have you know you were my bias, and you have the most numbers on my counter."

Utterly shameless.

Meanwhile, the first guy, his colorful body filled with numerous tattoos, slaps Mina's cheek hard. It ripples throughout her lithe figure, rattles the bed a little. She keens. He takes a moment to look at the hand that committed the sinful act. He's shaking, in disbelief. He did that. It's a moment in time, a monumental occasion. Anyone else in his position would be shouting in the streets, celebrating too.

You would.

The third guy, this aged man who's evidently in his mid-to-late forties and probably shouldn't be consuming K-pop, continues to stroke himself to Mina's face. Too bad her mouth can only fit one cock at a time. Her hand grabs his shaft and he grips her hair instead as she pumps him at a delicate pace. Their collective moans fill the room as each person assumes a position around Mina's sensitive holes, filling them hastily. No technique, no patience whatsoever.

It's pornographic for all the wrong reasons. How it all came to be. The setup. The characters. The very scene itself. Down to the shitty camera recording. Not befitting of an idol such as Mina. It's got its own charm, but for the most part, it's as disgusting as you imagined. You can't believe she'd agree to this. At the same time, you can't look away. It's a car crash that you know is gonna happen, yet all you can do is watch helplessly-and stroke yourself hard to.

All three men have different rhythms in which they fuck Mina. Tattoos slowly pounding at her dripping cunt, accompanying each deep thrust with a loud smack of her ass. His one hand grabbing at the hem of whatever's left of her dress, itching to rip it off. Mina's moan is suppressed by Pudge's cock protruding through her throat. A fistful of hair in his grip, the other on her flushed, reddened cheek. Expecting her to take his relentless rhythm, only for her gag with each pump into her airtight lips. As if he doesn't know how giving head works. The oldest man loosens up, lets his body hang as Mina strokes his cock with her ironclad fingers, letting flecks of cum spread over her neck and her shoulders, content with letting her handle him how she wants.

In a way, it's admirable seeing Mina like this. Three cocks and all, her commitment to fanservice and satisfaction is any fan's dream for their idol. You've seen it firsthand before, how she attends to each fan one by one, but to handle multiple without a single complaint is quite the accomplishment. She's gonna take it, and she's going to love it.

And in fact, she does. You've never seen her this dedicated and into pleasuring anyone. How she uses her other hand to seize Pudge's cock, spitting and licking the head, setting him ablaze. Even as the man with the tattoos begins to wreck into her sopping cunt, foregoing leisure for speed-as her whines echo throughout the room-she maintains her composure the best she can. Even begging him to go harder, which he obliges. The bed's quaking, seemingly closer to collapse, as the man screams to the ceiling, "Fucking tight-so close-cumming-aah-"

All three men are clinging to Mina in some capacity. On her waist, using her hair, or her shoulders-as they all appear close to their climaxes. Their collective groans of pleasure make this evident noise that warrants numerous calls of disturbance or concern. Imagine the commotion when the staff called in to investigate eventually finds out. The notion spurs Mina as she leans further into it-looks right into the camera as she licks up Pudge's underside. As if demanding you to take the best shot of her while doing it.

It's scandalous-the way Mina uses her expressions to make herself look good even under duress. How she winks, sticks her tongue, twists her face into lewder and lewder reactions while the three men who seemingly have power over her, now fold under her control. If only you could step in and be a part of the show, but you can't.

And she looks even better with cum all over her.

The three guys moan in unison for dramatic effect. As if it was part of the intended shot. One after the other, each man reaches their own orgasm and blasts their hot load onto some part of Mina's body. None of them seem to find their way into what they initially wanted, which is her holes. Mostly-tattoos man is partly into a deep thrust when he meets his abrupt end, only filling part of her cunt with his seed before deciding to pull out and throbs onto her back, her legs instead. Pudge gets most of her face, which she happily accepts. But even with her mouth wide open, he can hardly land his cum onto her sweet lips. As for the old man, he was never a factor to begin with. He had spilled his cum on the side, on the shoulder, on some hair, on her fingers. He was done before the others even finished.

What an unexpected sight.

You stand from the couch you've been sitting on, close in on the aftermath of their orgasms, watching as they stand lifeless around the centerpiece that is Mina, running her fingers over all the cum spilled on her body. This is child's play to her, yet the most surprising thing is: she wasn't expecting any of the three guys to finish this soon, let alone all three of them. She has this unsatisfied look in her eyes observing her conduits, the supposed 'threats,' as if they didn't live up to her expectation.

"Did I look good?" she asks you, tilting up, resting her head on her palm.

You show her the phone, speed past the raw footage. She watches like she's the director-which she kind of is.

"Mm-not good enough," she adds, grabbing the phone and grabbing a tripod from the bedside drawer. "Set it up over there and do it again. They're not leaving this until they get it right. And you're gonna show them the way."

Looking at their tired, exasperated faces, they'd rather be anywhere but here.

As for Mina, she's the most energetic you've seen her in a while, eager for more-and you're gonna have to make some phone calls explaining why she isn't at the airport by morning.

-----

(A/N: woo missed another deadline/date but happy birthday Mina! By request/commission, so thank you for waiting and I hope it was to your liking. I do agree we need more subby Mina but in the end she owns all of us let's be real XD Thank you for reading!)

TOO MANY NIGHTS ((G)I-DLE YUQI)

The way you see it, even if the signs were right in front of you all along-written in bright, colorful signposts with the largest text imaginable-you'd still be hurling yourself off that cliff.

Yuqi knows this too-you think she does.

At the very least, she looks convincing enough that she feigns innocence on the matter, and she is. It's mainly a you problem. She doesn't know you much other than being the sweet, quiet guy who was her roommate in college and nothing else.

And that's probably the reason why she's standing in front of your newly minted apartment on a random Monday.

-----

You're waiting for her to pick her bags off the floor and leave. You told her to leave three times. Threaten to call security on her. She doesn't budge. Instead, she stares. Stubborn, obstinate, unyielding.

"Please, give me one opportunity. Please let me explain myself." Yuqi finally breaks her silence, eyes wide, glinting with tears, pleading.

"Shoot."

She looks down, unable to see you eye to eye, her hands running through the pockets of her skirt. "You're right. I've taken your kindness for granted, and I'm sorry. I really am."

Pausing, you've never heard her sound this quiet, this personal. "I never truly appreciated you till I was home with my parents. I should have focused more on studying than going out and having fun. Now look. They're pissed that I'm being a bum at home instead of working, so they kicked me out."

She proves your theory to be true. She has no reason to be here unless you bail her out of trouble again.

"But I can't find one job that I like. Working a 9-5 or any regular cashier job seems so boring, you know what I mean? Doesn't feel like my type of thing to do," she continues, lightly kicking the suitcases with her feet. "My friends are all busy, so I had no one to lean on. Then I remembered you! So here I am."

At least it was nice seeing Yuqi act mature for at least three minutes before reverting to her usual spry, childlike personality.

"Okay? Well that's on you for being lazy, and I can't help with that. Sorry to hear you got kicked out, but I have nothing to offer you. It was great seeing you, though. Good luck with that job."

You try closing the door, but she stops it with her foot. Peeking through the narrow space, you find Yuqi persistent, unrelenting. "Wait. Hear me out for a second, I said I didn't wanna be your roommate."

"No, Yuqi. Just go-"

"I really need you right now. I've already applied to like five different companies on public wifi, it's so fucking slow and I doubt they even got my email. I just need a place to stay for like a month. Trust me, I'll get a job and when I get paid, I'll spend it on finding my own apartment! Just give me this one time."

You swear you've never heard Yuqi this desperate, this loud. Your neighbors are probably ringing up security right now, maybe the owner too.

"Okay, okay. Just calm down for a minute, will you? Our neighbors are listening." You open the door lightly and Yuqi's eyes light up. You didn't even say yes, but it might as well be a confirmation to her.

"You promise? You're actually working on a job application?" you ask, doubtful about her claim.

"Of course." Yuqi shows her phone, presents pdf files of multiple application letters to the very places she doesn't want to work. Some fastfood chains, at convenience stores, and mall outlets. "None of them have replied back, so-I'm still trying to apply to more places, but I'm almost out of data on my plan and I don't wanna spend another night inside my car. Just give me this one thing? Okay?"

Seeing the evidence firsthand, you can't help but be impressed. If you had any spine, you'd contemplate the proposal more, give it some time to mellow out, maybe let her elaborate some terms of agreement. But in a moment of weakness, you yield right away. What's one month of Yuqi gonna do to you?

"All right, fine. I'll let you stay-"

"I owe you one, thank you, thank you, thank you!" Yuqi doesn't even let you finish your sentence when she brings her suitcases into your apartment at record speed. She gives you a peck on the cheek in appreciation twice, one for each pair of suitcases she shuffles in.

You can only sigh in response before closing the door.

-----

Before Yuqi gets comfortable in her new place, you sit her down on the living room couch to discuss house rules. This isn't like college, where you share a dorm together, split the bill and have personal spaces. While you don't own the apartment, you make one thing very clear: she's bound to you and whatever rules you impose on her.

"Let's make one thing and one thing clear: you break any of my rules, you're outta here. I don't care if you explain yourself, you're gone. Understood?"

"Right." Yuqi's trembling with excitement and impatience, nodding erratically, kicking her legs up, goading you into rushing through everything so she can lay on an actual bed.

You take a moment to analyze her suitcases in the middle of the room. Facing her, you ask cautiously, "Tell me you didn't bring your-"

"Yep!" She responds almost immediately, thrilled to answer your question, as if it were muscle memory. "It's exactly what you think it is."

And there goes your supposed rule one. Of course she brought her entire dorm room decor along. Knowing her, they're likely encompassing two of her suitcases.

"Yeah, no. My landlord is quite strict about decor, so you can't put them up," you tell her bluntly; there's no getting around his rule, even if your roles were swapped.

She frowns, visibly devastated, probably more hurt than being kicked out by her family. It's the end of the world, but she won't give in. If there's even a slight possibility she can have her way, she will force herself through. "Please? Even just my room-"

"Not a chance. It's just a general rule here, sorry." You make sure to shut her down immediately. "I didn't make that rule, anyway. Blame the owner."

Yuqi acquiesces. She groans with displeasure, crossing her arms, acting bratty. No act can convince you to change your mind.

"Right. Now actual ground rules. This isn't a dorm so you can't just freeload as much as you want. Now I understand you're still working on that job application, so all I'm asking is just for you not to be completely messy, got it? So don't eat my leftovers without asking, don't go out to clubs and ask me to drive you home when you're drunk, none of that. If you're drunk, sleep outside the room. I don't want to clean up vomit on the carpets."

Surprisingly, Yuqi agrees without complaint. You're unsure whether she's nodding so she can settle in, or if she actually understood every single word.

"I seriously hope you're working on that job-"

"Don't worry! Just give me the wifi password and I'll be set." Yuqi can't help but interrupt you every single time, and to her credit, it's effective. She does seem dead set on taking this opportunity to redeem herself, and it's a convincing act. As insufferable as she can be at times, you want to see her succeed. You want to see her win.

You jot down the wifi password on an extremely thin sheet of paper and place it on the table before her. Before walking away, you ask her, "You need me to help with your belongings? I'll get the guest room ready while you make yourself comfort-"

"Nah, it's fine!" Yuqi's typing on her phone, not even shooting you a look in your direction. "I'll get it sorted out, don't worry! Just pretend I'm not here."

To her credit, she does get her belongings sorted out. By evening, she moves into a cleared out storage room that's now her designated bedroom. Words are hardly exchanged other than simple pleasantries and greetings. You ask her if she had dinner, she says yes. She doesn't take anything from the fridge other than some water. There's a knock on the door; she answers and comes back with a package of chinese food. She offers to share some, but you modestly decline.

You never ate together when you shared a dorm in college. She would eat her inside her bedroom or after you already cleaned up. At times, she'd come back to the dorm late and you wouldn't see her till the following day. You share the same space but you have vastly different lives. The feeling is familiar, but the setting is new: having dinner under the low light, uncertain about your futures.

This feels like your first day together all over again.

-----

The first night with Yuqi is a quiet affair. There's hardly any commotion. An unusual scene. She finishes her food ahead of you then retreats into her bedroom without uttering a single word.

When you wake up the next morning, Yuqi is already at the dining table. Browsing her laptop, coffee in hand, seemingly focused on that next job application. She doesn't even greet you or acknowledge your existence; she's in her own world, but in a good way.

"Morning," you quietly say, trying to grab her attention, but it falls on deaf ears.

"You off to work?" she asks, preceded by a mouse click while you pour onto your mug. Her attention remains glued to the screen, paying you no heed.

"Kind of?" You take a seat opposite Yuqi's side on the table. "I work here. Or should I say: this is my workplace."

"Wow. I wish I could work from home. Would be nice," she replies between mouse clicks and keyboard taps.

You take a light sip of your coffee. "What course did you take again?"

"Umm-" Yuqi slumps back in her chair, "I think it was medicine? I wanted to become a guitarist and have my own band, but my parents wanted me to become a doctor. And I don't wanna ruin my handwriting, so-"

"Don't you have a band with your friends? The one with-"

"Yeah that dream died two years ago." Yuqi's eyes squint, brows furrowing, running through every word slightly faster than normal. "And I don't wanna talk about it."

"Not even a little-"

"No." She faces you with a surprisingly cold glare, a sight you've never seen before. "They can just fuck off-those goddamn bitches."

You find yourself unable to move the conversation forward after her abrupt turn. It's probably for the best; you hardly paid any attention to Yuqi's life to be entitled to a substantial explanation.

The rest of the hour goes by in deafening, awkward silence. Here's Yuqi, this ball of energy whose life primarily revolves around partying and getting rowdy, calmly clicking on the touchpad and typing a few words every now and then in search of a way to fund her addiction. You can tell from her sullen expression just how deprived she is of that high-how incomplete she feels without the rush of adrenaline, ecstasy, and alcohol flowing through her veins. It's impressive how it takes someone to hit rock bottom to turn their life around, how all this could have been avoided with a few decisions.

Still, it's never too late for someone like her, and as long as she holds up her end of the deal, i.e. leave you for good after this, you'll actively root for her success.

-----

"Fucking hell, dude," sighs Yuqi, slamming the panel of her laptop hard, her fist narrowing missing the edge of the table. While you've made yourself comfortable at your usual workplace, a spacious office desk on the other side of the living room, you're preoccupied scanning through numerous documents and emails your boss sent you. A look at the bottom right of the screen tells you it's half past lunch. Then your stomach grumbles, as if the clock wasn't enough of a reminder.

"Gonna make lunch," you say to a vexed Yuqi, who's stretching her legs against the table and her arms to the ceiling, body likely aching from her hunched position. "You good?"

"Yep." Her tone perfectly toes the line between sincerity and sarcasm. "Got three rejections-no, four, actually. The last one was sent minutes ago."

You're not sure how to respond.

"Oof."

You couldn't relate to her even if you tried. Of the two applications you sent, your current job is the one that gave you the freedom and flexibility to work from home, even if it paid less than the other. That was six months ago; finding job opportunities has become way harder, or so you've heard from your other unemployed peers from college.

"Finding a job sucks," says Yuqi, stating the obvious. She finally gets up from her chair, brings her laptop back into her bedroom to charge before reemerging with a hairpin wrapped around her knuckles, tying it around her loose red hair. "So, what's for lunch?"

"Meatloaf and eggs," you reply, firing up the stove as you grab pans from beneath the sink. "Not sure if you'll like it, though."

She lifts her eyebrows, intrigued, but mostly unbothered. She'll eat anything as long as it isn't fast food or from the convenience store, and she doesn't have the gall to complain, anyway, as your roommate.

-----

"So, how's the job hunting going?" you ask her right as the sun descends over your apartment windows. You have your schedule down to a science, finishing all intended projects and goals when neighboring buildings' lights open. Weekdays can't be anymore mundane and monotonous, but you get the job done, you're paid handsomely, and you have time for your other hobbies.

Meanwhile, Yuqi looks like she doesn't want to stare at a computer screen for a week, maybe a month. She looks worse off than she did in the morning. It's evident in her clothes, her hair, her face: frazzled and messy. A perfect representation of her state.

"What do you think?" she replies, never sounding so heated, so frustrated. A look at her screen shows a new rejection letter, piled between several others, already read. Each one with different reasons, different ways to hurt, but with the same intent: we appreciate your interest, but we have chosen a different candidate from a very competitive pool-we don't think you fulfill our qualifications-we're looking for someone with more experience-we wish you the best in your future endeavors. You've noticed she tends to click back and forth between each letter, as if to torture herself further.

"I think you should put that laptop away. Try again tomorrow," you tell her, closing the panel while she's scrolling, stealing her attention. She readjusts her glasses, blinking rapidly, annoyed at your little intervention. "I'm going for a walk. You should join me."

"And what if I don't?" she asks, threatening to pull her laptop away from your fingers.

"Good luck going out when I have the room key then."

"I don't have my running shoes," she replies, and she's telling the truth; she only brought one pair of slippers with her, the rest being colorful sets of boots and expensive high heels.

"Then grab some from my closet and wash up. You'll look stupid if you go out in those silly boots."

-----

At first, you believe she had declined the offer; you had already left the building when Yuqi caught up to you moments later, huffing and puffing from exhaustion. Hey, maybe she could have been a great track and field athlete if she put her mind to it.

You can't help but make a little comment. "Thought you weren't going to go out."

That was for all the times she'd make similar remarks to you back in college. They never really bothered you; you were never a man of high morals and upstanding, but at least you had your priorities sorted out, unlike Yuqi.

Yuqi playfully counters your rib, shooting you a disparaging stare. "Dude. I'm doing you a favor by doing this."

"Elaborate." You laugh.

"You never went out whenever I asked you. You always said no to parties."

"And for good reason. Look at us now."

If you wanted to, you'd be harsher. You have years of dirty laundry and grievances to air out, but this is as concise and as restrained as you can express them without getting accused of attempted murder. Besides, you can't keep a straight face the longer you look at her. She clearly stands out in a rather dreary and dull crowd, and it isn't the red hair as bright as the sun, it's her look-or lack thereof. Your oversized hoodie, your running shoes mixed with her pajamas, the lack of bra-it's obvious she only did the bare minimum to look decent in a public setting, and yet she fits in all of them like a glove.

"Where are we going, anyway? Can it be a bar? I hope it's a bar."

The first thing she wants to look for once outside is a place to drink. Of course. It's hardly a surprise to you or anyone at this point.

"Where's your car anyway?" you question back.

"I dunno. Could be in the carpark, could have been impounded. I don't remember, and I don't really care. It smells like dogshit, anyway, cause I've been living in it for the past three weeks."

Yuqi talks with a fine blend of fast and sardonic, evidently scarred from all her ordeals with that car. She's never experienced living outside her glass castle until now, and it shows. She's dragging her feet with every step following you close behind, trying to soak in the scenery around her. Street lights, joggers, buskers, friends, and partners of every sort, people that you actually know and recognize. It's all foreign in her eyes. All she knows are strobe lights, loud music, drinks, and rowdy crowds.

"So, like, do you just go on a walk every single day or you only do this because I'm your roommate?" she wonders, her gaze lingering at a passing woman jogger that catches her eye. Jumping to conclusions, she adds, "Are you telling me to touch grass? As if I hadn't been doing that for weeks?"

You turn around and notice her distant stare, still fixated on that woman, ruminating the prospect of leaving you for her instead. "I don't think getting blacked out drunk and vomiting in your car counts as touching grass."

"How do you even know that?" Yuqi faces you, provoked by your comment, pouting. "You hardly attend parties, even when I invited you. You always turned them down."

"Word gets around fast. I thought you already knew that."

If she could, she'd grab you by the throat and strangle you to death or rip you in half. It stings. She questions whether your blunt, matter-of-fact delivery makes the statement ten times more scathing. Then she wonders if she made a mistake, dressing up and going after you, when you'll just be making her regret her life decisions like her parents did. You hardly cared back then, so why now?

"Can we just go to a bar? You're being annoying." Yuqi stares into the distance, intentionally averting her gaze away from you.

"If you have the money, then sure, let's go for it." You know she has no leverage or power; she can only afford fast food and a month's worth of groceries and daily necessities. It pains her to make a willing decision to pass on alcohol and avoid bars and parties. She's down horrendously, but she won't directly confess her own fatal flaw.

It takes everything within her not to slap you square in the face.

And you can play this game all night long until she folds. You can stand there, argue, and debate with Yuqi till she runs out of excuses and complaints. Four years of pent up material to unload onto her, make a scene in public and turn her into an example about not wasting one's life away. You can go further, you promise.

Instead, you both settle down in a cafe on the other side of the park as a compromise.

The place is more suited to Yuqi's style: lively crowd, comfortable ambience, all the caffeine and sugar as a proxy to her raging alcohol addiction. Most importantly, she won't pay for shit. You don't even end up drinking your own order; she does it on your behalf. You settle for a tiny cup of tap water instead. In a way, she's acting like a needy dog, desperate for attention without concern for anything else that doesn't involve her.

"Fucking hell, I never knew I needed this," she echoes, sipping up the last quarter of your coffee, glancing at the menu over the counter, itching for another. She's keen on paying from her pocket this time; she recognizes you won't give her another freebie. "This shit tastes so good."

You can only shake your head, not even remotely trying to hide your frustration toward her. Her obliviousness is kind of cute in a way, making her look a bit sympathetic.

"Maybe I should just work here," she says, her eyes moving in every direction, her attention taken by something shiny every five seconds. Plenty of action happens at night: groups entering and exiting, the pervasive scent of fresh coffee brewing in real time, and plenty of girls to ogle at. In particular, there's a waitress with a cherry tattoo on her neck that's captured her interest. She can't help but point her out to you, grinning widely at her. "See that waitress? She's kinda cute."

"Uh-huh." You're not really paying attention; you're there mainly for the free wifi and a snack, not to flirt. Luckily for you both, the waitress is preoccupied with meeting high customer demands to notice. "Good idea, maybe you should apply here."

The longer you stay inside the cafe premises, the more Yuqi becomes less inclined to leave. You end up having dinner, a couple of ham and cheese sandwiches from the snack menu. On her end, four cups of coffee strewn on the table, all drank by her. If this was some ploy to make you pay for free drinks, it worked to a tee. Anything to avoid engaging you in a serious conversation.

The opportunity never presents itself. Soon, the cafe becomes dimmer and muted. Staff are closing off sections, clearing trays, and cleaning up empty tables. Since you entered the cafe, she has not made a move on the waitress at all, even when you've tried pushing her over the cliff numerous times. Her shift is close to done, ready to check out for the day. One more opening. Still, Yuqi watches her intently, but can't find the strength to stand, let alone pull the trigger.

"Well? I thought you were gonna ask her out or something." You take a look around and come to a grim realization: that you're the only two customers left.

"I-I don't think I wanna do it now." Yuqi turns around, playfully grinning, but rushing through her words. "Maybe when I get the job here. Maybe."

You can only react in quiet disbelief to how this was all just a huge waste of time-and money.

"Fucking-" you sputter before masking the rest of your response, groaning as you rise from your seat, leaving.

After two days, your main observation is that Yuqi hasn't changed much. If at all.

-----

The rest of the week follows a similar structure. It's comforting; it's the kind of monotony you've acquainted yourself in ever since having your own apartment. Yuqi's always up before you, an hour in advance, she'll tell you. At her usual spot around the dining table, on her laptop, coffee in hand. You stop asking for updates after the third day; you're certain she'll figure things out. Your mindfulness and curiosity get the better of you, peeking through the screen on occasion, only to find the same thing. One rejection after another, mixed in with a new application letter in between. From the outside looking in, it's as if some divine force doesn't want her to get that job.

In the evenings, you go for your usual walks. Yuqi joins you out of the apartment building, but instead of following, she separates and heads the other way. She's wearing her own earphones and your hoodie, something she'll end up keeping. The few times you run across each other, she's holding some drink in her hand, usually the coffee from the cafe you spent time with her in, her hoodie pooling with sweat all over. No pleasantries, you mind your own business till you return home.

It isn't until two weeks after she's moved in that you extend an invitation: a visit to a newly opened lounge on the other side of town. You preface the invite saying you only knew about the place because it had opened a month ago, and had mostly forgotten about it until you remembered her. She's doing well for herself, so you might as well reward her for her efforts, even if it hasn't gone anywhere. And it isn't Yuqi without asking for some kind of favor; in this case, taking a ride in your car because hers has been impounded by the police. You're not even surprised that she's too lazy to reclaim it herself.

Your friend says the lounge is newly opened, but once inside, you're uncertain about her claim. Whether it's by design or her being a complete liar, grimy, poorly lit, in the vein of all those underground clubs you had seen in action movies where a shootout or police raid occurs. Simply put, there isn't anywhere pretty to look at, and you feel icky just by being here.

To Yuqi, it's a fantasyland: it's where she's meant to be all along. She's so overjoyed to be there.

"It's you!" calls a familiar voice; you turn and find a friendly face over the counter waving to you. You quietly leave Yuqi to herself and approach the bartender, who just so happens to be the owner. "I never thought you'd come and visit! It's great to see you."

"Only doing this for a friend, Minnie," you silently tell her, pointing your finger at your invited guest, the sole reason you'd ever be here. She recognizes her immediately and understands.

"Yuqi, huh?" She looks intrigued, her gaze lingering at the girl. A subtle grin is forming on her face. "Never thought the two of you would be an item like that, considering she's a party animal and you're-"

"No-no-don't get it twisted," you interrupt, frantically trying to clear up any presumption. There's no chance in hell you will ever find yourself attached to Yuqi romantically, not even a little. "It's-a long story."

"Do tell." Minnie smirks, teasing, alluring. She looks the part of a bar owner, all right; dark eyelashes and shadowy lipstick matching her pitch black hair. Not to mention her slim dress perfectly hugging her tight frame, showing enough cleavage to draw attention. As a friendly gesture, she gives you a wine glass and pours a drink on it. "We've got all the time in the world and all the drinks you need. All in house since you're a friend."

So you oblige yourself to a tiny sip. The place is surprisingly quiet and empty, even though it's the weekend, with lo-fi music playing through the speakers as the only form of background noise. Minnie doesn't have much on her plate. She can lean on the desk and listen to you all night long.

"So, two weeks ago, Yuqi moved into my place trying to look for a job," you tell Minnie before taking another sip. Both of you take quick glances at Yuqi, seemingly having the time of her life, scaring off the sole patron by the billiards table. "And I was wondering if you can get her a job here. She's been rejected from every company she applied for. I know she doesn't want to work a nine-to-five, and I suddenly remembered this place."

Minnie raises a curious eyebrow, brushing small strands of hair covering her ear. "I see." Looking past you, she notices Yuqi, now at the karaoke, amused by her voice and energy. You follow along and watch too, wincing at her talent, caught completely by surprise. You can feel the passion and emotion from her rather honeyed, deep singing voice, as well as her natural charisma while performing.

"Damn. She sounds really good. Borderline natural at it." Minnie's in awe of Yuqi's abilities, the sort of reaction that pushes buttons, steals the show. "Wasn't she in a band? I know she played guitar."

"She said it doesn't exist anymore, won't tell me what happened."

Even in the midst of conversation, Yuqi's voice manages to snatch away your focus. She's an extremely powerful singer-a natural, as Minnie said. Her voice is overpowering the background music with little difficulty. There's little need to watch when her vocals can easily capture your attention all the same.

Facing you again, Minnie replies, clasping her hands together, "How about she perform by herself?" she suggests.

You meet her eye to eye at the drop of the notion, curious.

"What do you mean?" You take another sip.

"We have an open mic night next weekend, and we could use talent to liven up the place. She sounds perfect for that kind of gig. Who knows? Maybe she can be a resident singer if the cards are right." Minnie smiles through every word, recognizing Yuqi's talent and the untapped potential she has. All she needs is a platform to showcase her skill properly. And taking another glance at her, you see that too. She has the passion and the vocals to croon a live audience.

"I'll tell her," you say, turning to Minnie again. Yuqi has finished performing and is on her way over to the bar. Your conversation breaks off as the two women greet each other with an exchange of kisses on the cheek.

"Great place you got here girl," Yuqi tells Minnie, beaming from ear to ear. "I'll be popping by often if you don't mind."

"Thanks. I could use some company on the weekdays, if I'm being honest." Minnie hands Yuqi her own wine-filled glass, as well as a complimentary bottle. She makes sure not to "Take it, it's on the house."

"God, this is why I love you so fucking much." Yuqi drinks up the whole glass in one swig, and immediately pours some from the complimentary bottle. Minnie can't help but shake her head with a little smile, knowing this is still the same Yuqi she's acquainted with since college. A rose-tinted view of days gone by.

The two women spend the rest of the time catching up. With how much they talk, it would be a safe assumption to think that these are two long lost friends who haven't spoken in years. Then the conversation goes on and on, revealing more details than you should probably know: exchanged private messages as recent as last night, Yuqi's intentions to visit the lounge sooner before present circumstances got in the way, and how she ended up in your apartment. As a listener and side character in her story, it's a part you quite frankly never wanted, let alone be involved in under any capacity. You make sure to add your point of view in the narrative and clear every question. Whenever you chime in, they laugh heartily. It's a mess, and they're unapologetically quirky, never failing to make fun of you at times.

Despite everything, the topic is never brought up: the upcoming open mic night, her performance, her natural talent. You were planning to shoehorn the idea, but one too many drinks later, the conversation and opportunity eventually slips away. Again.

Yuqi can hardly stand on her own two feet when she finally decides it's time to leave. It's two in the morning when you guide her back to your car, with her drunk out of her mind and slipping into unconsciousness. Minnie assists you, making it even more embarrassing. Even when she's so inebriated that she can barely move a muscle, she says she wants another round, slipping back into her old ways.

You escort Yuqi back to your apartment, setting her down on her bed and promising yourself that you'll tell her about Minnie's offer when she's sober in the morning.

Except it's the one fucking day in the month where your job calls you into an actual office for a meeting. Despite that, Yuqi is not at her usual spot in the living room the next morning (unsurprisingly), so you leave food on the table for when she eventually wakes up.

-----

Returning late in the afternoon, you find a note from Yuqi on the outside door of your apartment, stamped by strawberry lipstick, simply reading:

> Not gonna be around till tomorrow. Have something urgent to attend to - XOXO, song yuqi

Sure enough, one brief tour of the apartment and Yuqi is nowhere to be seen. Her room remains untouched: the same, colorful space it's always been, with most of her clothes and belongings still strewn everywhere on the floor. You don't even mind the stickers and posters plastered all over the walls; she was gonna break that rule regardless. Typical, but expected. At least you know she hasn't completely left yet.

Deep down, it's the first time in a while that your apartment feels a lot smaller-and lonelier. It's not that you have any sentimental attachment to Yuqi-not in the slightest-but her presence clearly livens up the place. The difference without her around is night and day. Even when your interactions are limited to a minimum, the brief moments you interact make living by yourself a bit more tolerable.

So you preoccupy your mind with your usual schedule: a walk in the park, then dinner by yourself. But these intrusive thoughts grow worse and worse. You're not in your pajamas at the usual hour, her absence is keeping you up at night, and waiting for her to walk through that door is about as brutal as federal punishment.

You end up driving to Minnie's bar, inquiring about Yuqi's whereabouts. She says she hasn't been around, and she hasn't exchanged messages with her since last night. Then she asks about open mic night; you tell her about the inconvenience, about the note on your door, which is why you're there. Good effort, but she ultimately gives you nothing.

"You should stay here a while, who knows? I can message Yuqi you've been looking for her," says Minnie, her smile as welcoming as it's ever been. "Why not have a drink in the meantime?"

"Hmm." You entertain the thought, but she promised to return tomorrow, and perhaps you're overthinking it; you just have to let it play out. "No thanks." As a distraction you're watching another girl at the karaoke machine. She has distinctively pink hair, has similar energy and passion for singing, except her voice is much higher, more nasally. All she does is remind you of Yuqi, but she's nowhere close-in appearance and in ability. "She promised to be back tomorrow. Maybe I should take her word for it and go home."

A pour of wine on the glass is followed by her siren-like whisper. With her hand caressing your shoulder, she mutters, "So-you like her. You like Song Yuqi."

You raise an eyebrow, taken aback by her statement. Facing Minnie, you reply, "What? No way. I don't like Yuqi at all. I'm just concerned she might have disappeared, that's all."

"Cap." Minnie smirks, murmurs to your other ear. "You like her. Actually, you love her. You just won't admit it."

"And what makes you say that?"

"The fact you look so distressed wondering where she is. I mean-just look at you." Her voice is slow, delicate, each word delivered with profound emphasis. She flickers a lighter, then directs the cigarette in her mouth for a puff. "Would someone who doesn't like her worry like this?"

"I mean-I'm just trying to help her get back on her feet," you tell her, and Minnie can only chuckle in response. Puff more smoke. In her eyes, you're not doing yourself any favors. Your words have no weight to them. It's the same old same old most women like her hear dozens of times. I'm not into her, says the guy who's showing an alarming level of concern towards said girl. Something she's all too familiar with. "You know? Just looking out for a friend, that kinda thing."

Minnie wishes she can hold up a mirror against you now to prove her point. In a place meant for everyone to relax and ease themselves, you look tumid, on the verge of a historical crash out. She smirks into her next smoke, shaking her head, scrolling through her phone. "Sure. I believe you," she remarks, and there's no effort made to hide the sarcasm in any capacity.

That piece of cigar looks quite appealing right now. She sells smoking like she sells the off shoulder dress draping her defined figure: exceptionally well, like she's meant for it.

Later in the night-you're unsure whether it's still today or tomorrow-Minnie suddenly approaches you with a shift in enthusiasm, as seen through her grin: "You should probably head home. Unless you want to stay the night waiting for someone who won't be here in the morning."

"She's back already?" You manage to decipher the hint right away.

She nods, can't help herself from beaming continuously. No effort to lie or maintain the mystery further. "I guess you're not as stupid as I thought you'd be."

Running up the stairs in a hurry, you respond to her little jab with a shout, "And you owe me one for that. Actually-no, I owe you one!"

Unknowingly, Yuqi's little mannerisms are starting to reflect in you, too.

Sure enough, you're home within a matter of minutes. Empty streets, dead nightlife on a weekday, the loudest thing heard for miles is the roar of your car's engine and the elevator headed up to your apartment floor. Any other time you'd burst through that door like an officer with an arrest warrant, but it's almost three in the morning, and the last thing you want to be is apprehended yourself after a noise complaint.

The place remains as unchanged as you had left it: completely dark, save for one light over the kitchen. It's quiet, eerily silent-until you hear airy, soft noises in the distance. Room by room, you carefully inspect where the sound is coming from, only to find nothing at all.

There's only one place left to check, and it happens to be the Yuqi's bedroom. A room you remember being empty. As you approach the sole unopened door, you notice the faint sound growing in pitch. Hushed words from a familiar tone.

"Fuck-oh fuck-"

You press an ear against the door frame. She sounds clearer. Way more explicit. Vivid.

"So-so-good-fuck yes-"

There's a subtle creaking sound that accompanies her singsong tone almost perfectly. Nothing is left open for interpretation; Yuqi is feeling herself. Feeling a satisfaction that only comes from something slick, something rough, something good.

As much as you want to respect her space, her moment in the dark, you can't help yourself. She sounds so good, so gratifying to the ears, it's making you a little hot and flustered, much to your own guilt and shame. You don't care about the consequences; you'll allow yourself one little look then pretend it never happened. At best, she's too preoccupied with her own bliss to notice, and at worst, it'll be one awkward conversation starter in the morning.

"Oh, oh God-you feel really good baby-just like that-"

It's as if she's reading your mind, understanding your intentions. The way she moans your name like an invitation-something you never thought you would hear or even consider-how it's naturally delivered from her sweet, intoxicating voice. You're doing yourself a disservice by listening through the door.

There's no better opportunity than now.

With your heart racing against your chest, every nerve in your muscles tense up as it desperately opens the door, slowly and as quietly as humanly possible. Miraculously, you go completely unnoticed. Even as light from the living room slowly penetrates through Yuqi's bedroom, it fails to cover what really matters: the bed and Yuqi herself.

Nevertheless, the sight that welcomes you is one to behold, one worth looking at with complete awe.

Yuqi's body is splayed out on the bed. Her legs are spread wide, a couple of her fingers aggressively rubbing against her exposed clit, and there's a glossy sheen coating the sheets before her soaking wet core. Her clothes are, unsurprisingly, scattered all over the floor, along with a pair of consumed alcohol bottles. She's completely bare for your eyes to see. Nothing is left to your imagination. More importantly, she looks so fucking hot. Your heart is racing like never before, and the scene has your pants in a twist.

Her other hand runs up and down her lithe frame, then squeezes her own breast. She lets out this sharp mewl, grinding her hips against air. Her jaw slacks wide. Her eyes shut tight. Her back arches. Waves of self-induced pleasure send shockwaves through every fiber of her being, her moans growing more and more erratic.

"Fucking give it to me-I love this cock so fucking much-"

It's about as pornographic and explicit as it gets. It riles you up in an uncomfortable way; you end up unzipping your pants to free your growing erection, but nothing happens beyond that. It feels wrong. It is wrong, but you can't muster up the strength to look away, let alone walk away. You want to see how it ends. How she cums.

She wraps a hand around her own throat, while her knees are planted upright with her feet firmly gripped on the sheets. There's a noticeable tone change in her whines, as if simulating the act. Yet, the words flow from her lips seamlessly. "I'm so close-so, so close-"

The cackle she makes after is mortifying. Here's this girl, who you had zero attraction prior to tonight, shamelessly declaring how she's going to cum, how good your cock feels inside her-without either of the two even happening to begin with. The fact she likes you is the least shocking revelation in itself. A reminder: you only had three meaningful conversations with her since she moved in-two if you consider how blackout drunk she was the night before, and even if you go all the way back to your college days, you can count them with your fingers alone.

"Fucking-cumming-oh my God-"

Yuqi strains her knees and loosens her grip on the sheets as she lets the pleasure wash over. Clear liquid gushes past her throbbing, relentless fingers and spills onto the linen. A guttural, deep moan fills the bedroom as she slumps her body flat on the mattress, her energy completely depleted, her thoughts filled with nothing but orgasmic bliss. Her coated hands rest on her bare waist, her tummy, leaving viscous sheen on her creamy pale skin.

When she isn't screaming your name or touching herself to the thought of you, Yuqi, at her barest, looks so gorgeous like this. Flaws and all.

Albeit brief, it's quite the show to more than satisfy your thirst for her. You remember your uninvited presence in this room and where you stand in this relationship. That she's only a tenant-an acquaintance at best-and nothing more. Any other person and situation would already send you damning to hell.

So you quietly leave, gather your bearings, hoping her haze doesn't clear before she is made aware of your presence, but you hear a faint whisper right as you close the door, clearer than any whine of pleasure:

"Hey."

Part of you wants to ignore her, pretend this is all a huge misunderstanding and feign ignorance. Then you hear her soft, alluring voice calling your name and it's what ultimately folds you:

"W-what time is it?"

Again, you consider the choice of entertaining her question or leaving her dry. She'll probably fall asleep shortly after and forget these few moments. You tell her it's three in the morning, hoping she dozes off.

She doesn't.

"Shit. Can you come inside? I mean-come in."

She's still thinking about you, and it's admittedly cute. You love how unabashedly blunt-and lewd-she is when she's drunk. You give her the benefit of the doubt and reenter the room.

Yuqi realizes the messy state she and her bedroom are in when you turn on the lights. Cheeks puffed and red from embarrassment, she tries to hop off the mattress, only to stumble to the floor on her fours.

"I'm so, so, sorry. I didn't think you'd-"

"Hey hey, it's fine." You grab her off the floor and sit her on the bed. "Don't apologize. I'll get some water; stay here and rest."

Your eyes are meeting, hers twinkling. In those few, crucial moments, right when you're about to leave, you feel an irresistible tug pulling you closer to each other.

Suddenly, Yuqi pulls you in by the shirt for a deep, passionate kiss. Her lips taste like actual whisky and vodka, indicating what she drank earlier that night. Yet they feel so lush, so sweet, filled with so much passion. You don't bother trying; you fold to your lust, submit to her desire. You sink onto the bed together, never breaking apart, even for a second. Next thing you know, her hands are all over your body, roaming your chest, coiled around your neck, removing the shirt over your head to be tossed aside and completely forgotten.

Yet there's still some resistance. Despite making the first move, she pulls back, and you do so in return. You're hovering on top of her-an unexpected but welcome position to be in.

"I didn't know what got me there. I'm sorry. I just felt this sudden need to kiss you and-"

You shut her up by diving in and kissing her again, pinning Yuqi down to the mattress-the very thing that got you into this position to begin with. With you all over her, she's able to shed the rest of your clothes: first the slacks, followed by your boxers. She mewls at the sensation of your hard cock pressed against her slit, and it's beyond what her imagination can describe. It's electrifying. And God, you know you're no better than her, but you just want to fuck her right then and there, give her everything she wants without a second thought.

Grabbing you by the scalp, she rips your lips off her chin as you're making your way down her neck. "Not yet. Nuh uh." She pulls you into yet another kiss, as if you're oxygen-and in a way, it's appropriate: you're breathing new life into her. "Did I ever tell you that you were a good kisser?"

"Not at all," you tell her, gently shaking your head. "You're not half bad yourself."

"Half bad?" Yuqi raises a sharp eyebrow, seemingly offended by your backhanded compliment. A dangerous smirk forms on her lips. "Says the one who was watching me the entire time-"

"You knew?" There's a heightened sense of panic in your voice. "I thought you were-"

"Shhh." She kisses you, pulls you into a warm cuddle atop her. Slender legs wrapped around your hips, she follows: "Less talk, more lovemaking."

And more lovemaking you do. You grow more easily acquainted with her lips than with her personality, and you barely know them: it's only been a few minutes. Even though it's a Thursday, the weekend feels like a lifetime away. You should be up five hours from now; you have the alarm preset and everything. But Yuqi's getting in your way again, as she always has, and this won't certainly be the last. She's so hypnotic, so alluring, you find yourself unable to slip away, no matter how hard you try.

You find that it's easier to give in than to struggle aimlessly.

It's effortless to get your fingers pressed inside her sopping core, brushing along sensitive, wet ridges of skin, where thoughts of you manifested into thin, delicate strokes. Her moans ring against your ears in varying pitches, each with a distinct, pulsing plea of satisfaction. Keep going, she tells you, and you follow without complaint. All this while you leave a soft path of bite marks down her neck and collarbones, until you reach her petite chest.

And fuck, you just go down on Yuqi. Sucking on her breasts like you're in the middle of an oasis in the desert. She goes wild. Tossing, turning, trembling. You can feel her body close on you, wanting to take you in and suffocate you. The bed is creaking, growing strikingly more intense, turbulent. All this spurring you on, making you more reckless, more daring with her.

"Mmmmm-fuck!" She lets out a hum of desperation, her hot, shaky breath fogging on your skin. You become an intertwined labyrinth of limbs that fit together, where you have no idea where it begins and where it ends. Your fingers vanish between her legs, still working tirelessly, perfectly snug around her pussy even when crushed between the weight of her thighs.

Eventually, you find yourself staring aimlessly at Yuqi. She's so beautiful, and you're punching yourself mentally, wondering why it took so long to come to this conclusion. Even when she's not rocking the trendy hair color of the week and her face is a canvas for every conceivable makeup and filter, she's naturally pretty. Especially now, completely bare-and with nothing but an exasperated, satisfied look of inebriated, lust filled bliss.

You find the light peeking from the living room, casting a shadow between your tangled legs. She's dripping at her core, showering your fingers with a fresh flow of sheen, messing up the sheets even further if that's even possible. They're beyond saving at this point, and so are you.

Rolling to her side, Yuqi wraps her arm around you, as if enticing you to stay. You shouldn't have done this, but it's too late: there's no going back. You're too lazy to close the door, and you have the girl you previously never gave a second look rubbing lazy circles on your stomach with her coated nails. Her hair draped all over your arm and shoulder, her eyes looking up at yours, acting all soft and innocent-

Until she starts talking again. "It wouldn't be complete unless you cum inside me, wouldn't it?"

The difference between her body language and her lips is night and day. Right then and there, you immediately recognize that there's no other way this night will end. How your body moves at her will, how you immediately roll on top of her, as if it's programmed to follow her every command. You have her legs pressed up and spread wide, her knees bent, lining your aching cock against the wet slit of her cunt. All while her features twist into a sickening, slimy grin in the slim shape of a lip bite. The fire, the desire-it's still as bright as ever.

And to make sure you aren't second guessing the idea, her arms are coiled around your neck, her hands grabbing at your hair, pressing on your nape. Yuqi wants you-needs you-to fuck her silly; it's the only way she can be satiated.

You watch Yuqi's expression contort from anxious to messy, and the feeling is mutual. You slip in, slow and delicate, going against her instruction, and you almost lose it at the first stroke. The deep, guttural moan you make echoes throughout the entire apartment, while her firm walls pulse against your cock. It's hot, it's tense, it's suffocating.

"Shit, shit, shit-" you mutter, gently trying to pull back, but the fiery sensation burns, scratches away at your psyche, at your loins. "So-fucking-tight-Yuqi-fuck."

"C'mon. Fuck me. Fuck me now." She kisses your ear, her legs pounding against your hips, demanding you to move. There's some serious intent behind her tone, a seamless blend of demand and impatience. "Use that big cock-mmm!"

You can only groan in response as you thrust back in deep, her grip on your body tighter than ever. And it's more than just her cunt; she's clinging onto you for dear life.

It hardly matters when you're leaving sore, red marks on her skin or ripping through the blankets. It hardly matters when Yuqi can barely breathe. It hardly matters when you're so loud that everyone can hear you. What's important is you're fucking her-and you're fucking her hard. You both love the filthiness to it. There's no rhythm, no pace, no flow; it's one slow deep thrust, followed by a fast pump into her tight, inviting cunt. You become comfortable; you take her like she's meant to be used.

And Yuqi takes your cock so fucking well. Bounces against every stroke with ease, as if the feeling is second nature to her. Knowing her, she's probably been in this position more than you'd want to know or hear. You don't really care about that for now. Even after what seems to be an endless cascade of orgasms, she's still keening, still needy, still soaking wet that it's alarming. Her back arches, melts deep into the cushion. She still wants more.

"So-fucking-good-more-need-fuck-"

The only noise you need is the mesh of your flesh slapping against hers, bouncing against her sharp cries of pain and pleasure. Reaching into the deepest, most sensitive parts of her pussy with your cock, this violent shudder rocks both you and Yuqi to your core. With each drag, more of her slick coats your shaft, and the easier you get access to her smothering heat. You can't find the will to stop, not that you ever want to; she feels so warm, so inviting, so sloppy sounding to the ears that it's driving you just as crazy as her.

It's also driving you wild why it took you this long to fuck her-use her-like this. If you had known, you would have cared sooner. You'd have some leverage when it came to negotiations. A body like hers is too good not to have on speed dial.

Right now, it's the least of your concerns. Not when you're pounding a tight body like Yuqi's so freely, hearing her demand to fuck her harder, like your life's depending on it. Better late than never.

And it's for the best that the moment happens later rather than sooner. She cums. Cums again. Eventually you've stopped counting, because there's no point. The mere thought of you restarts the cycle, and your touch accelerates the process. The clutch of her cunt is too overwhelming to avoid at this point; it's all but directly telling you to fill her, to unload all that pent up tension and need into her. The thought never bubbled up in your head even once; the idea of you and Yuqi with a child together. You never really questioned it. She goes out often, probably gets fucked multiple times in one night if she's with willing company. She probably knew you'd walk in on her; hell, she's probably got this whole thing planned out and Minnie is one of her accomplices. Maybe the entire time, she's been yearning for you, because you've never heard her this passionate, this loud, this filthy in your life, even at her most inebriated.

"Inside me. Please cum inside me. I'm safe, don't worry," she whispers, as if she's reading through your mind, reassuring you from your doubts. Her hand is palming your back, as if to line you straight so your cock directly hits her sweet spot. She sounds so pretty, it's almost impossible to resist.

"Gonna cum," you tell her, voice going hoarse, rasp, and she nods immediately in return, reinforcing the notion. She's focused her effort on holding on, her legs tightly wrapped around your waist, her arms coiled around your neck, subtly pushing you against her hips.

"This-pussy-so-fucking-God," you mindlessly utter, averting her doe eyed gaze, desperate to cling to the last of your resolve as it quickly dissolves with each thrust. You're on borrowed time and it's quickly slipping away. Yuqi is tilting your face down to her, to her airy breaths, to her fluttering eyelids, to her passionate expression as you fuck her, pushing you over the edge. "Holy fuck, Yuqi-"

Yuqi's lips part like a flower in bloom, and it's a pretty sight. Yet it's not enough of a distraction to keep everything from falling into place.

And God, it fucking burns.

You swallow hard, but are unable to keep that groan suppressed. Your hips meet her halfway, your cock comfortably buried deep in her heat, and that's where you come undone. Yuqi digs deep into your skin as it fills her-your cum-and she goes frozen at that moment. It's a quiet, tense flash of silence. Afterward, she finally breaks. Cries out this deafening whine, her grip all over you loosening, time eventually catching up to her.

She lays beneath you, completely limp, but her body remains trembling, shaking, seizing. You don't find the strength to drag your cock from her heat; the feeling lingers. Endless ropes of cum gushing into her womb, emptying yourself, just as she wanted. Then you pull out, agonizingly slow, and more viscous slick gushes from her core.

You feel guilty for that poor patch of soaked linen between her legs. It's about as ruined as a collapsed power plant.

There's little need for Yuqi to beg you to stay. The climax saps whatever energy you had left. You end up slumping flat on your belly beside her, both of you bathed in the afterglow of sex, exhausted from an already long day, too worn out to make another sound. And when you're tired, any bed, no matter how messy it may be, is a comfortable bed.

-----

You already expected the scene at the breakfast table to be awkward.

And it was.

It isn't until Yuqi calls you out standing at the doorway of her room that you realize you've been shooting a thousand yard stare the whole time. She waves at you, her cheeks red, flustered, chuckling. "Good morning to you, I guess. Put something on. I don't wanna drink coffee while looking at someone's dick. It's gross."

This time you're the one unbecoming, completely in the nude while she got herself into some pajamas. Despite that, you hardly feel any guilt or shame, like this is a normal occurrence in the household. So you scramble to your room and get appropriately dressed. A look at the time and it's already 15 past ten in the morning, an hour later than when you normally start work. Even more unusual is the absence of the laptop. It's just Yuqi and her coffee.

Sitting opposite Yuqi, today seems a bit more tense than normal, and you can guess the reason why. She knows it, too. Neither of you are willing to break the ice, only shooting occasional glares at each other while sipping on coffee and scrolling through your phones.

"So, Yuqi."

The words slip from your mouth, accidental, nearly silent. They follow the mild screech of the chair she sits on. When you meet eye to eye, she asks what's up. What's on your mind? There's a sudden barrier in your throat. You have a vague idea of what to say, but not the power to speak them.

"About last night-"

Her lack of response is unnerving. The visible curiosity, the probable apathy. You and her possibly sharing the same sentiment: a feeling of regret.

"I-I just wanted to say sorry. For last night. I should have just-"

"Sorry for what?"

You suddenly stop. This is not the expected reaction; it's the complete opposite. A moment where you face the consequences of your actions.

Yuqi stands up and walks over to your side, beaming from ear to ear. "What we did last night was-fucking amazing. Don't feel bad. If anything, I should feel bad because I didn't tip you off sooner. We could have done so much more."

You don't pick up on the implication right away. It's all strange, uncharted territory. Your previous flings were simple one-and-dones: a night of reckless, frivolous fun. Short, but fun nonetheless. They would disappear in the morning, never to be seen again.

"I didn't think you'd walk through that door, especially since it was three in the morning," says Yuqi, casual, running her fingers through your hair. "I got a bit too silly, as usual, but there's a good reason for it."

"And that is?"

"I got a job!" Yuqi's gripping to your shoulder, the only thing keeping her from jumping for joy. "I got a job at the cafe with the pretty lady. I start on Monday."

It's certainly a cause for celebration. You can't help but root and smile for her, caressing her hands. "Well, damn. Congratulations."

"Yeah!" Yuqi's wrapped you in a rather heartwarming embrace that you willingly fold into. "I had the interview yesterday, so I needed to lock in. Needed to be alone. Then I got accepted after, so I went and bought some drinks to celebrate."

That doesn't surprise you one bit. You're just thrilled that she's finally getting somewhere.

"So-does that mean I can kick you out once you get your first paycheck?" you ask her.

"I guess so. But-" Yuqi pauses, tilts your chin on an incline. She's warm, radiant, pretty. She doesn't care that you've worded yourself poorly and you're taking it back; she's still riding off the high from yesterday. You're already counting the days before she leaves, and admittedly, you'll miss that sight. "I'm gonna miss staying with you. Thanks for having my back when I needed it. I honestly don't know how I will ever repay you."

She tops it up with a quick peck on your lips. It's all over your face, etched completely in red. The devilish grin.

"I think I know exactly how."

And that's all that needed to be said.

Before you know it, you're right back at square one: clothes scattered everywhere on the floor, her body pressed on the mattress, flat on her belly, your cock stretching her pussy out as you fuck her mindlessly from behind. This time in the comfort of your own bedroom.

All the more reason for you two to stay together.

(A/N: fucksorryforgoingonanotherhiatusfuckfuckfuck-)

(Okay, but I really do wanna apologize for going on yet another unannounced hiatus. Final weeks of the semester were hell, then I was on vacation the week I promised this fic would be released (I'm basically the LeBron James of K-smut when it comes to lying at this point), not to mention a health scare courtesy of my mother. Some very hard times have hit me lately, so my mind wasn't 100%. Nevertheless, I am still standing (shoutout Elton John). Lots of free time throughout June and July, so hopefully nothing bad happens ISTG lemme have some peace for once and let me fucking write goddammit-)

(In non-personal news, Yuqi's solo was very fun and she's getting on that Yena level of bias where she's the perfect blend of cute and hot. Then she went pink recently and that made me :pphurt: Sort of a feel out fic before I *finally* finish these commissions over the coming weeks, thank you for reading!)

CRUEL FLOWER (JO YURI)

"You sure you really like my dress for today?"

For the record, this is the fifth time Yuri has asked you this question. Whether or not you disagree, your choice doesn't matter. She's going to show off, and for good reason.

You're not the only one anticipating some antics on stage.

To be fair, they're not exactly the kind of antics you'd expect, as though one makes a fool of themselves like it was part of a humiliation ritual. Yuri is much more intricate and flirty, as seen with her choice of outfit for today's performance. It's tasteful with a hint of sexy, yet easy on the eyes. The kind that leaves your mind questioning as to why she dresses herself like someone she's not, even if you enjoy staring at her bewitching appearance.

She makes your heart race in countless ways you never knew could happen.

"I mean-even if I said no, you've already made up your mind. So what is the point," you tell her, covering your mouth, your gaze peering down at the garter and stocking combo completing her floral ensemble. To say they complement her would be an understatement; even by her relatively tame standards, this is a little too bold and showy for her fans.

But the thing is, it's not her normal audience she's performing for. Thousands of fans are lined up all over the convention floor, mainly to see their more popular favorites. Not helping matters is that she's one of the rare handful of soloists, the number which you can count with just your fingers, which typically don't generate as much interest as an average group. Right from the start, she's fighting an uphill battle, and this is her one of the limited opportunities to steal everyone's hearts and attention, especially on a bigger platform.

Yuri turns around from the mirror, having put on the finishing touches of her makeup, facing you with a dour, mocking pout. "You're no fun."

Indifferent, you brush her off. Her contemptuous responses are part of the package, something that encompasses your daily routine. The less you entertain her, the better and the wiser you are, especially during these more serious times. You've learned that you find yourself less likely to fall in danger when you don't give Yuri even the smallest of openings.

Unfortunately, it's a lesson you have to be reminded of more often.

"But you gotta admit, I look really good, right?" she questions you, as if you haven't been ogling her from the moment she presented herself to you in just her lingerie, garter and stockings. The dress is just the cherry on top of what you consider near perfection.

It's intentional trolling at this point.

"I don't know," you tell her, hiding no hint of sarcasm. "Could use a little less"-you suddenly stammer-"You know-"

"Could use a little less what, babe?" Yuri approaches you, seated on the couch, pressing her palms on your knees, smirking, plotting. The thin layer of dress sweeps forward, revealing some cleavage and her necklace. She's all up in your face, her lips nibbling on the ridge of your ear, her neck flashing a still fresh hickey from earlier in the day, her hot breath sending chills down your spine-her favorite form of showing affection.

If you had any less restraint, you'd take her on this very couch, rip off her clothes and fuck her on said mattress in every position imaginable. Forget the crowd, much less the fact that you're in a backstage room, where the walls are paper thin, so much so that even the slightest sounds can be heard from the outside. No matter how you spin it, there's always clear and present danger waiting for the most inopportune time to strike. This is how Yuri gets you: by putting you both in the most uncomfortable situations possible, career be damned. It isn't due to a heightened sense of thrill under duress, but it's just the way she is. Insatiable.

As easy it would be to fold right then and there, you make it a point to keep her in check, much to her disappointment. In a way, you're kind of her unofficial co-manager, except you just so happen to share the same bed with her.

"No," you tell her, holding face, holding her by the wrists, rising from the couch and leading her against the makeup table. "Don't even think about it."

"Fuck you," she replies, not hiding her frustration. She matches your stern glare with of her own, but she comes off as more of a spoiled child than an actual threat. There's more charm to find than seriousness in Yuri's cutesy features. "You really are no fun at all, asshole."

Releasing your grip on her hands, you make a concerted effort to fix up her loose dress, then leave a peck on the cheek. All while you admire the little details that complete her look. You can't help but kiss her softly, inadvertently calming her down. Undoubtedly, she's pretty, but she's even more special today.

"It's only a what? Thirty minute set? It'll go by in a breeze," you tell her, as if she hasn't been going through the festival circuit just the other month. On her part, it feels way longer since she performed in public, and that's in no small part to her spending all her spare time with you more than anything or anyone else-to the point of being overly attached.

Yuri sighs, rolling her eyes, hating the notion of being away from you for more than a few minutes. She makes one last hail mary effort to lead you on by wrapping a leg around yours, but you immediately catch on and put her in place. She's so visibly miffed, that it's easy to feel any sort of sympathy for her, but you know this little devil is going to exploit your kindness and bury you in the process.

"Please," she pleads in her softest tone, ready to drop to her knees on command. "I don't even need you to fuck me like a whore, but-please-let me suck your cock instead. Let me take a warm load down my throat and I'll be good to go."

Try as hard as she can, the idea passes through one ear and comes out the other. You don't budge. Not in the slightest.

"Please, babe-promise I'll let you use me anyway you want." Right on cue, Yuri sheds tears, eyes wide and bargaining. "I'll let you tie me up and tease me with your toys like the bad girl that I am. Just give me this one thing. Please."

Still, nothing she does changes your mind. You even toy with the fact she's needy as hell. "Didn't you just call me an asshole, asshole? Why would I let you suck my cock, let alone shove it anywhere near you or inside you?"

Her facade immediately disappears in place of self-defense. "Oh come on. I call you asshole all the time, asshole. Since you like that word so much, here: asshole, asshole, asshole. I bet it's because it reminds you of how much you love using my-"

Unamused, you interrupt Yuri by backing her against the table again, imposing your superior stature over the frankly petite idol. She doesn't look intimidated, and for good reason: you won't do a damn thing to hurt her. Despite the clear assertion of power, it's actually the opposite-she recognizes that you're falling into her hand and gets off on bothering you.

"Go on. What are you gonna do? Spank my ass? I bet you'd love to do that to me now, do you?" Yuri's chuckling, grinning wickedly through every word, knowing your attempts at punishing her only serve to derive her pleasure instead. Either way, it's a lose-lose situation. Fold and risk your frisky relationship to the public at your expense, or only delay the inevitable and continue to be tormented at every chance she gets. The trouble never ends.

You end up backing away and leaving her alone in the room. You remember; it's a miracle. "Just-act normal," you tell her, sounding defeated as you open the door.

-----

For the most part, she does.

Yuri is a natural performer, as usual. She never really needed you to begin with. You found her like this. Any sign of weakness or doubt is virtually unrecognizable.

Being near the front has its benefits. For one, you're merely a stone's throw away from Yuri, meaning you don't have to strain your eyes or constantly turn to the screen. No LED panel can truly display Yuri's in all their glory. It also means when her earpiece randomly stops functioning, you're a few inches away when she decides to entertain the fans with typical fanservice: giving high-fives, completing hearts, partaking in pictures, and so on. While everyone around you has their phones and lightsticks raised, you're just watching along, basking in the moment, watching your girl do the thing she loves the most, besides doing you.

Yuri passes by your section, and immediately recognizes you on sight in the midst of the crowd. She throws a wink and a kiss in your direction-much to everyone else's delight, but not yours. Apart from that one scene, there isn't much fanfare or anything fanciful that you haven't already seen from her. After only five songs, she bids farewell to the audience.

Minutes later, you reunite with her backstage at her assigned dressing room.

"Well well," says Yuri, waiting by her lonesome at the makeup desk as you enter, sounding self-indulgent. "I did it, babe. Wasn't so hard."

Of course. Yuri can keep herself in control; she just chooses not to. It's hardly a surprise to anyone, especially you.

"Were you expecting a cookie?" you comment, making sure her head doesn't leave orbit.

"Don't be such a bitch," she retorts, pouting her lips, irked at your remark. "Just say I did a good job. Being kind costs nothing."

"And being an asshole also costs zero," you retaliate, never letting up on the sarcasm. "Good job."

"And? You're missing one more thing."

You raise an eyebrow, growing slightly crabby. "What? Isn't a simple good job already enough?"

"C'mon." Yuri steps forward with all the confidence in the world. The change of attitude in the room is sudden, abrupt. One quick shove sends you stumbling back onto the couch. Before you're able to react, she straddles herself on your lap, having all of the leverage. "You know I gotta get my reward after every performance, babe."

No matter where you turn, you end up back at square one: against Yuri. Her hands lead your wandering gaze toward hers. "God, Yuri, no-"

She shushes you, places a finger between your lips, shaking her head in disapproval. "I did my part. It's only right that you have to return the favor. That's the rules."

"What rules?"

Yuri laughs. Shoots you this inviting, alluring look that's asking-begging-for trouble. A perfect encapsulation of who she is whenever you're alone together. Her fingers begin to pick through the buttons of your dress shirt, your countenance slowly unraveling as dread and danger clouds your mental functions. No amount of ignorance can save you. You're trapped.

There's your answer.

As if that wasn't enough, the finger between your lips is now replaced with hers. A kiss. Deep. Tender. Passionate. She's engrossed in the moment, cupping your face to pull you down with her, forcing you into submission. There's no escape. Whatever resolve you have left she gradually weakens, until you eventually close your eyes and reciprocate those feelings back at her, too.

It's a good thing you locked the door beforehand, as if you knew this was going to happen.

You're stuck in this fervent position for what feels like an eternity, when in reality, it's only been a couple of minutes. Despite the precarious state you're in, there's something sincere when it comes to Yuri. Probably because she's the only person on this planet with a face that could look innocent while clearly committing the act. Still, she's up to no good, and she has you exactly where she wants you to be.

She pulls away from the kiss, her eyes glazed, her lips melding in the shape of a moan, even though you're still clothed-for now.

"Jesus, Yul, we really should-"

A second kiss interrupts your desperate plea. Yuri doesn't want to hear any part of it. She knows what she wants. No amount of resistance will deny her this opportunity. She finishes unbuttoning the last of your shirt, slipping it off before throwing it aside, caressing your bare shoulders. All this while shaking her head.

Pulling away from your lips again, she slips one of her dress straps down her shoulder. "I don't fucking care. I want you now."

Clambering off your lap, Yuri tugs at the hem of your pants, jutting your hips forward. You can only watch helplessly while she strains her lanky arms, unzipping your trousers, pulling on them again and again until they pool around your ankles and shoes. Her eyes fixate on your groin, gleaming at the welcome sight: a growing bulge beneath your boxers.

"How long have you been hard for me, hm?" She swipes at your erection a handful of times, each touch eliciting an airy groan from your lips. Biting on her lower lip, the sensation arouses her even further. "Did I dress a little too sexy for you today?"

If you could talk at that moment, you would say yes. The entire time you've been watching her on stage, your primary focus was her outfit over everything, including her soulful voice. As flattering as the simple but sexy ensemble was on its own, it's even hotter in motion. It reminds you of when you first met in a similar place. Instead of thousands in attendance, it was only a handful of patrons at a small bar. And out of the dozens she could have ended the night with, it happened to be you. From the moment you laid your eyes on each other and exchanged smiles, you knew there was never going back.

You're aimlessly pulling at strings, hoping to find a way out, a miracle. Instead, you're digging your grave even further. The other strap falls down, pulling the rest of her dress along with it. Not of her own volition, with the culprit being your own hand. There's nothing worth saving at this point, not even yourself.

What a way to surrender. You haven't answered her question formally, yet she understands what you were going to say.

Yuri leans forward, her attitude as bold as it's ever been. Despite her pretty smile, the hint of cleavage right in front of you sweeps away your gaze. Every part of her is a sight for sore eyes. She shudders, closes her eyes, slowly grinds herself against your throbbing bulge, finding your place beneath her even more suffocating. You can only sink back on the couch, moan along and let her neediness weigh you down.

As the garment slips further down down her lithe frame, landing at the waist, you bury your head against Yuri's neck. Romantic as it may look, it's anything but. She keens against your ear, her nails scratching at your nape-all while you clamp down on her collarbones. Her whines sound needy, wanton, shameless. Her voice echoes beyond the four corners of this room, removing any pretense to any innocent soul passing by. Conveniently, music from the main stage is loud enough to cover your little act.

Maybe she really had it planned out all along.

While Yuri remains preoccupied by her senses betraying her, you reposition her away from you towards the table. You never let up on the passionate kisses and bite marks till her creamy, pale skin glows a deep shade of red. Then you twiddle with the zipper on her corset, sharply yanking it down, almost snapping the clasp in your haste to undress her. Fortunately, you manage to push the rest of her lingerie down to her waist, enough to where you can feel her bare figure with your hands.

Asserting your control-something you should have had the entire time-you lay Yuri face down on the sofa, clambering yourself on top of the powerless idol. Manhandling her is as easy as breathing; she folds at the slightest push and prefers to be used as a means of personal release.

Reaching from behind, you rest a hand on her chest. You squeeze; she yelps. The feeling of her nub held between your palm while drawing out little, saccharine noises from her dirty lips scratches that sweet spot in your brain perfectly. It's an addicting sensation you can't get enough of. She is unable to fight back, her nails digging deep into the fabric of the couch, desperate to hang on, only to find herself going weak at the knees.

More and more, you find yourself losing control, becoming more ravenous. You quickly shed your boxers, pushing them down as far as your knees, your struggling cock freed from its restraints. Your noises are turning more primal: less human, more animalistic, as your grip on Yuri tightens. You lay her body flat on the couch, make use of what little space is left, before digging between her legs to strip the panties beneath her skirt.

Part of you wants to slip a finger or two in there and play with her clit. It's inconsequential, if not a small diversion from what really matters. Until you remember just how far off the beaten path you've already gone. If you don't fuck her right then and there, you just might lose it.

Pressing the head of your cock along her lips, you come to a predictable conclusion: she's soaking wet. Wet enough to raise some deep concerns. Your breaths tense up as you slowly enter and the walls pulse around you; the gap between you and her couldn't be any narrower.

The groan you release as you bury yourself to the hilt is worth a thousand reliefs. Nothing is as satisfying as that first entry into Yuri's tight, suffocating pussy. Every single time.

"Oh-fuck-" you blurt, immediately overwhelmed by the rapid surge of heat. In response, she lets out this sharp, echoey moan, stretching her head ever so slightly forward as she endures the stabbing sensation. The feeling doesn't last long; you pull back, her walls pulsating against your cock, only to plunge right back in.

The little discomfort soon dissipates for pleasure. Yuri's so intoxicatingly tight, so hot when you fill her with your cock. That's why despite the uncomfortable scenarios she puts you in, you always fold, because you feel right at home in her cunt. It would be a disservice to take her like some dainty, delicate doll. And you wonder why she's always so needy.

Spreading her thighs wider, you fuck her, slowly foregoing the comfort of a slow grind in favor of a erratic, torrid pace. Each thrust you deliver is hard, emphatic strokes, as if to prove two points: that you don't take lightly to her antics, and that you will always overpower her. You shouldn't be deriving any joy from this, but you're loving every second using her as she wanted: as an outlet for your frustration.

As for Yuri, she's just as pathetic and helpless as always. Reduced to a heaping pile of moans and mewls. Her national position. Her favorite position. You should be wondering just how incredibly manipulative and conniving she is, getting you to act out for a little miscreant like her, when she should have known her place by now. Ultimately, there's no point; there's nothing that will get her to change her wicked ways, and every consequence only serves as her motivation to push you even further.

The sounds filling the room are almost indistinguishable. Whether it's the supposed thumping on the door or skin against skin, you don't know. You're twisting her dark hair around your finger, and her keen and shriek are one and the same. Meanwhile, your other hand can't decide between her waist and her ass, both sensitive and satisfying to the touch. You're both too engrossed in each other's pleasure to care about anything other than the relentless collision of your bodies. At this point, you're certain it is, in fact, a knock on the outside, but it will eventually disappear. They all do.

Yuri is shaking, violently trembling, gripping to the couch's handles, desperate for air. 'More-harder-fuck me-' she begs in repetition, every word spilling like a prayer. It's amazing how she holds up against you. You wonder if her goal is to be seen like this-to be recognized as the fucktoy and brat she is. You can only contain her for so long; it's only a matter of time before it blows out of proportion. That's the thrill of the chase-to avoid being found and to escape with an inch of your life.

Your grip around her hair reaches a fever pitch, your teeth gritted and your breath heaving. You want to say you're close, but that's basically asking for trouble. Still, you can't bear it any longer. "So close, Yuri. I'm gonna cum-"

"Fucking do it. Cum all over me. Inside me. Anywhere you want," is her response, with you pressing her down on the couch out of fear any more filth from her lips will upend you quicker, when in reality, you were already in the process of falling apart. As far as vulgarity goes, it is among her tamest. You're delaying the inevitable by only a few precious moments.

Then she cums. Unannounced, out of the blue. For all you know, she could have been screaming into the void the way her cries are muffled by the sofa.

Her juices flood your cock, almost making you snap in return. The feeling overwhelms you beyond definition; it takes every last bit of resolve not to break down right then and there. With a sharp draw from her warmth, her slick leaks from her cunt, spills down to the couch. Coating every inch of your shaft, the suffocating heat of her pussy pulls you right back in, and that final thrust sends you over the edge.

All that pent-up want and tension, unglued in an instant.

Ignore that you let out this hoarse, powerful grunt from the depth of your lungs as you fill Yuri's cunt with every last drop you have, as if you haven't been fucking her multiple times a day for the last two weeks. The spillage on her skirt and dress doesn't matter; as long as she feels every last speck of your cum inside her. You find solace on her shoulders, pushing your throbbing cock deep into her cunt over and over as you blast fleck after fleck that seemingly never ends.

Eventually, you crash down on the other side of the couch, opposite where Yuri's face rests. Taking a minute to catch your breath, you get a glimpse of your handiwork: your cum continuously spewing from her sopping cunt, down to the now soiled linen, the damage long-lasting, if not permanent. Had you torn the dress and skirt concealing her inner thighs, the signs wouldn't have been any more obvious.

It takes a little longer than normal for you to gather your bearings. After all, you were straining your legs in a crowded room an hour before this little escapade. But you've been through worse-way worse.

When you finally regain some of your strength, you grab the still exhausted Yuri by the waist and bring her in front of the dressing room mirror. Her bare chest is in clear view, with her dress all crumpled up at the midsection; it's going to require more than a simple fix.

"Look what you made me do, you fucking brat," you hiss, giving Yuri a thunderous slap on her ass. She sees it as not a punishment, but as a reward for pushing you far beyond your comfort zone.

She can barely move a muscle, but is able to respond in spaced out breaths. "Told you it was better than the bedroom."

You respond with another spank. Then another. A few more. More than you can count. Each hit as thunderous as the clap of her cunt. You know it's not going to stop her; she knows you can do nothing else.

Her hands cling to the desk, her breaths still heavy, while you slowly rip through the skirt, foregoing any logic. You catch a peek of even more of your handiwork, her ass burning with the same fiery red as the rest of her shapely body.

Spreading her supple cheeks, you line your cock between her pussy and her legs, resting your head forward beside hers. Grabbing Yuri by the hair, you tilt her face down, moaning against her ear as your bodies entangle together. "Fuck you, Yuri. Sincerely, fuck you, fuck you. Fuck. You."

With half an eye opened, you catch a glimpse of your reflection, and it's as messy as you expect. Yuri's mouth is spread in a deep, wide 'O' shape, still riding a prolonged high, while your fingers are all over her. On her breasts. In and out of her hair. The image is arousing enough that you instinctively push your bodies forward. You can feel your cock hardening again.

But right as you get into a rhythm, a knock on the door again snaps you from your shared daze.

"Well? Bodyguard, you better go and get that," she says with a slight smirk, her cheeks flushed in embarrassment.

You throw your head back, groaning in despair. "Fuck's sake," you mutter, much to her delight and laughter.

Yuri shimmies from your clasp, picking up pieces of her now ruined dress before walking to the bathroom, while you hike across the room to gather your wear. If there's one thing about sex with her, it's how filthy it gets. Clothes scatter everywhere, she's loud enough to draw attention, and despite everything, it's hot and messy in all the right ways. You end up fucking her in positions you never thought you'd ever try.

You barely make yourself presentable as you pick up the door, only to be greeted by a blonde beauty on the other side. Her dress immediately stands out; it's simpler in both design and color (a plain black all over), yet so daring, it makes Yuri seem conservative by comparison. She knows what her best assets are and how she'll flaunt them for all to see.

What also sticks out is her natural accent. "Hey. Don't mind if I ask, but is Yuri around?"

With the narrowest of turns, you manage to ascertain her presence, or lack thereof. "You barely missed her, Somi. She just left."

"Did she tell you where she went?"

"No idea."

Somi pouts. It's a familiar look. "But I just heard her voice here. It was really loud!"

"You just gotta text her. I seriously don't know where she went off."

Her eyes wander down to your ragged appearance, a stark contrast to your blunt tone. The loose belt, the partially unbuttoned shirt, the rolled up sleeves of varying folds. It's a disaster of epic proportions, and you can barely hold it together. "You sure nothing's happened in there?" she asks, hiding the littlest of grins. "You look kinda rough."

"I'll be fine. Just had to deal with"-you pause, a moment stretched out longer than it should have any right being-"some stuff."

"Right." Her eyes peek into the back, even with your best efforts to gently block her view, only to find nothing and no one. She considers her options, before saying, "Surely I can just wait till she comes back? I mean, you're her bodyguard-"

"I don't think that's a great idea." You shut her down immediately. "When she returns, I'll let her know you were looking for her."

There's that trick again: a loose strap sliding down her shoulder. Her hand is glued to the doorpost, unwilling to move, expression undeterred. "I'll just wait here. We still have a final goodbye to do for the fans. Don't worry. I just really need to talk to her."

Her friendly smile turns into a mischievous grin.

It's deja vu.

-----

The goodbye never comes.

Some poor random idol has to take Somi's MC job at the eleventh hour because she's nowhere to be found. Despite security's best efforts, she couldn't be seen, and neither is Jo Yuri, for the last sighting of the two is them leaving the venue by themselves, one after the other. Apart from a handful of disappointed fans, their absence can be hardly felt by everyone else.

Not a soul knows where they went-and they never will find out, nor will they ever care. Only you may have the smallest of clues, for you are buried between two pairs of legs, preoccupied with eating out pussy while your hands squeeze on a couple sets of breasts in the cover of a hotel room.

CODEPENDENCY (IVE YUJIN)

On one side, there's a mansion worthy portrait of you on the wall. On the other, wards and recognitions from numerous governing bodies with your name plastered in remembrance. The public knows more about the brand than the people behind it; that's how business works. Unless your name happens to be Musk, Bezos, or Zuckerberg.

You're nowhere near their level of wealth and influence-far from it-yet this entire building's future rests on your shoulders. It's not as easy as it looks.

You've always credited your guardian angel for keeping you from harm your entire life. It sounds religious, but from personal experience, it's real.

She's guiding you from the secluded corner of your office.

-----

"And that's how we'll proceed with operations moving forward," you say to the executives in the room-except they're not physically there. Their faces are projected on screen, joining from different countries, with some even joining from home. To be quite frank, you understand very little about your own presentation, and had your acting not been Oscar-worthy, there's more that would appear absurd than believable. "Do we have any questions?"

For the most part, the top brass appear to be in unanimous agreement with everything that has been laid out. Not a single question, complaint, or rebuttal from anyone.

"Well done, officer. You seem to have a complete grasp and understanding of the situation," says one of the chiefs, his ripe old age showing through his slow, strained tone.

Another suit, much closer to your age-albeit barely (he's in his mid-forties)-adds, "We expect an immediate turnaround, otherwise we may have to cut even more of our divisions off. Should this plan fail, we anticipate closure of even more of our departments, including yours."

It's not the most concerning thing you've heard this week, but it's definitely up there-at least top three.

Nevertheless, you remain firm and bow to your superiors as you end the meeting. "Thank you sirs. We will do our best."

As soon as the video call ends, you let out this deep sigh of relief that's been repressed the entire time. Thank goodness you have an entire building floor and private office to yourself.

"Well fuck me," you mutter, seemingly speaking to the void, taking all the deep breaths you need, wiping the sweat across your head with some tissue. "Tell me I followed through on everything, right?"

"Yeah. Apart from mixing a few things, you mostly got it." Yujin's voice emerges from the far end of the room, covered in darkness, away from anyone's view. The papers on your desk aren't actually documents or paperwork. In reality, they're pages of a manuscript with a few instructional, handwritten notes attached. It's not even your own writing; they're curated by none other than Yujin herself. "I'd say I wouldn't have noticed, even if they were a little too obvious at times."

"These conferences are fucking tiresome. Nauseating even," you reply. Yujin opens up the blinds, and you stagger away from the immediate sunlight piercing through the room. Simply put, you just want to throw up after yapping all that incomprehensible jargon. "You know what-why don't we switch places next time? I think you'd be better at this than me, like you already are with everything."

An unusual comment for the director to make to his assistant, but it's true. Yujin is so good in every department that it's borderline farcical. She's incredibly reliable to the point where you've basically deferred nearly every task to her, leaving you with the most boring parts of your job, which mostly comprises of company meetings and private calls. She's a relatively new hire, having worked in your department for a little over a year, yet her rise up the ranks has been nothing short of absurd.

"Please, let's not get carried away," she softly laughs, flashing a lovely smile you never grow tired of seeing-and you see her as soon as you walk into the building till you clock out. "I'm fine with the research and paperwork. Regardless of what you want to believe, I think you sold it well."

You slump back in your chair, somewhat bothered at just how unbothered Yujin is. How she's able to take all your responsibilities that you should be doing, and without protest. One look at her features tells you all you need to know: that she's happy to work for you. She could easily be in your position right now, putting you through this exact hell. She could be on that screen making those very threats on your job, in fact. Instead, she prefers to be your subordinate.

If that wasn't enough of an example, she's gathering the papers on your desk, putting them back together, good as new. Then she brings you a cup of water from the dispenser. She's enumerating a list of other, just as unintelligible things that may or may not be important to your discussion earlier. Meanwhile, you've been sitting in that chair, your thoughts wandering aimlessly, thinking about anything that isn't work. It's almost noon, yet your mind just wants to check out for the rest of the day.

"Um-sir? You okay?" Yujin waves a hand right in your face, snapping you from your tired daze.

You tilt up to her gaze, eyes weary. "Yeah. I'm just-tired."

"Do you want me to leave? I'll go and sort out the upper management on your behalf if you're not feeling well."

"Don't." You rise from your seat, telling her, "I'll take care of it. Go and have lunch," as you point at your wristwatch, both hands closely pointed at the top.

"You sure? You should go have lunch too," she replies, showing an alarming amount of concern that it's almost comical. "Don't worry about me."

Shaking your head, you respond, flashing a light grin to reassure her, "I can talk to them at any time. T your break. I'll call you when I need anything."

-----

Truth be told, you didn't want to see her for the rest of the day, let alone seek her help.

Yujin is only one call away. After all, she's your assistant, down to working right outside your office. She's working on whatever nonsense you've assigned her, showing no signs of slowing down. Meanwhile, you can barely call today productive; you've only completed two pages of a draft for next week's presentation. In the time spent between slowly chopping away and stalking her from behind the door, her pretty profile a sight for sore eyes, she's probably completed this week's assignments and halfway through the next. She's that efficient.

Hours pass, until the day finally ends at five. At exactly the top of the hour, she lets herself into your office, her pleasant attitude still in full bloom. "Already completed all the tasks for today. How about you?"

Yujin is not even trying to gloat-not in the slightest-yet it sounds like a punch to the gut. You can only slam your chin flat on the desk in despair, shooting a tired glare at her. She tries to muffle her chuckle, trying to keep herself professional, not realizing you've already seen through her facade.

"You want me to help you out? I don't mind working an hour longer if you need it." She's peeking her head over the laptop display, examining for the proof of concept-or lack thereof. "Didn't I tell you to leave this five plan strategy to me?"

This amount of confidence should leave you battered and deflated. And yet, there's a sense of relief knowing Yujin will get the job done no matter what you ask of her. It's enough to turn that frown into a faint, encouraging grin.

"I guess so," you tell her, putting down the screen. Getting up from your chair, you close the window blinds and block out the setting sun. "Maybe I'm just tired of deferring all my responsibilities to you, that's all."

Her smile looks innocent, demure even, it doesn't make sense as to how irrevocably kind she is to you. As far as you know, your employees consider you as shrewd and as scummy as your superiors. Forget that you've been working here longer; they consider everyone that isn't their fellow rank a corporate dirtbag who'd step over others the first opportunity they can. It's a vicious cycle. To have someone like Yujin feels like an anomaly.

"Don't worry about it, that's why I'm getting paid right?" she answers back, pressing her palms on your desk. "Just do what you can and I'll handle the rest."

You're pouring an espresso into a cup, before offering the drink to her. "We should talk, Yujin," you say, filling up a separate glass with your own. Your fourth shot. "You got a minute or two?"

"Sure. I always have time for you." Yujin sits up, taking the drink into her hand, crossing her leg. It's nearly impossible to look anywhere else but on them. As if she couldn't be any more perfect, in mind, character, and body. "Is there anything bothering you lately?"

Sitting across her with only a desk separating you, the words never come out. You've got plenty on your mind: the messy state of your department, the unreasonable expectations and demands of your superiors, the possibility of losing your job-and Yujin. She's sitting right there, ready to hear you out, but you never find the conviction to confess your worries. The next few minutes are awkward silence, only broken by the occasional stir of teaspoon and the sip of coffee. It isn't that she renders you speechless, though one would fairly assume as to why: she's pleasant to look at, among other things. It also helps that her outfits have been getting skimpier over the past few weeks. Unsurprisingly, you let the flagrant violation of the dress code go unpunished.

"Sir? Is everything okay?" Yujin leans her head forward, noticing that you're lost in thought. She places her cup on the desk. "What's wrong?"

Your eyebrows instinctively rise. That glimmer of hope you showed moments ago disappears. What's left is despair. "I think we might be fucked, Yujin."

"Fucked? What do you mean by that?"

"We're fucked. Like, we could be out of a job fucked."

"Explain?" Yujin cannot comprehend it-then again, anyone else would react the same way. "Didn't we give the board a five step plan earlier today?"

"We did," you reply, finally mustering the strength to meet her eyes. "But here's the thing: we don't have the financial or human capacity to execute the plan. At least, in the time they demanded."

"And? We did the research and even the hypotheticals!" You've never heard Yujin raise her voice even once-until now. "What could go wrong exactly?"

"They think we can course correct years worth of bad financial decisions in just a few months. That's the problem. Either way, we're fucked."

"I don't believe you." Yujin forcefully rises from her seat, threatening to flip the desk. If she only had the strength. "After all the time I spent working on it, you want to wave the white flag and give up?"

You don't really know how to answer her. At least, in a way that's remotely graceful and easy to understand.

"I'm sorry, Yuj, but no matter what-"

"I'm trying-so fucking hard-" she huffs, her fist clenching, trembling violently- "to carry your fucking ass so that we could keep our livelihoods. And not just me or you, but also the hundreds working for us! I know you fucking hate their guts because they've said nothing but terrible things about you, and even if none of that is true because I know you better than anyone else in this fucking building, at least have the decency to salvage whatever's left instead of being a fucking coward for once!"

Yujin doesn't notice that she's been outright screaming into your face. You're taken aback, utterly in disbelief at what she just aired out. If she wasn't kindness incarnate, she likely would have pulled you by the shirt and choked you till you passed out. She blinks. The realization hits, and she begins to crumble.

"Sorry" is the only thing she can say, in quiet mumbles, slowly falling back onto her chair. Her hands cover the lower half of her face, completely mortified. Her eyes are on the verge of tears before giving out and crying waterfalls. Eventually, she lowers her head out of shame.

Even before entrusting her with such a demanding assignment, you knew there was nothing other than divine intervention that could save your job. This wasn't what you signed up for, and neither did Yujin. For the most part, this was only to save face. Your face. The board of directors didn't have any objections after all, and were mostly agreeable with every step of the plan. Either that or their old age is catching up and they hardly understood a thing at all. Like you.

Nevertheless, it doesn't excuse you from criticism. This is on you, and you should be held accountable. Instead of rightfully performing your part, you weighed down someone else with your burden. It's the wake-up call you need.

Yujin shouldn't feel guilty saying all of this and having to apologize. She's crying on your desk, still softly apologizing between tears, "Sorry-I'm really sorry-" and your heart fucking drops.

It's a terrible feeling.

"Yuj, please stop crying," you mutter, caressing her shoulder. Seeing her look so defeated brings you more distress than anything, including the thought of losing your job. "I should be the one apologizing for putting you through all this. You're right-"

"I'm so sorry." She's still asking for forgiveness, your words mostly going unnoticed. "I just wanted to-"

"You're right, Yuj. I'm a coward. I'll admit, I honestly wanted to resign the moment they brought this up. If they couldn't do a damn thing about it, how else would I know? Seeing you figure out a way made me realize just how much I depend on you to save my ass. I should be the one saying sorry, not you Goddammit, Yuj. What would I do without you, honestly-"

She tilts her head up, her sniffling and sobbing unceasing, resting her head on your chest. "I'm sorry. What I said is still out of pocket and I wasn't in the position to say-"

"Shush, Yuj. Stop apologizing for being right," you reply, brushing her hair. "Look. We'll go forward with your plan. You can write up the whole thing and I'll present it your way. I won't muck up in front of the directors, okay? Don't worry about it. I'm not gonna quit."

"Really?" She lifts up her eyes, doe-looking and glimmering.

"Yeah. Might as well go down with a sinking ship, so please stop crying," you say, smiling. "You made me feel like shit and I don't like it."

Yujin laughs. Heartily.

-----

Even though that should havd been enough to appease Yujin, in your eyes, it wasn't. You had to make it up to her in other ways.

"This place serves really good food," you tell Yujin, digesting the sights and scents of the relatively small eatery. Meanwhile, Yujin sits beside you, eating to heart's content without a care. "I can see why you love it."

"How'd you know this was my favorite place to drop by after work?" she asks, chomping down on the last stick of her barbecue.

"I have my sources," you tell her, playfully grinning, unwilling to admit that you've been watching from behind your car's windows for some time now.

"Don't tell me it's Wonyoung, boss." Yujin pouts, flustered and embarrassed. "I swear to God, I can't trust anything with-"

"It isn't her, don't worry," you chuckle, amused at her red-faced look.

"I really appreciate the offer," she remarks, finishing the remaining half of her drink. "You shouldn't have."

"Hey, it's the least I can do for my hardworking assistant," you reply, gesturing to the lone cook for the bill. The charges go up to the hundreds, with most orders belonging to her. While she's chomping away at the end of a large meal, you secretly foot it on her behalf. How she maintains her figure while consuming this much food, you'll never know. And when she calls for the tab, she's told that it has already been paid in full.

"Now you're just being extra," she says, facing you, looking insulted by the kind gesture, but in a playful way. Appreciative regardless. "I already told you we'll pay for what we each ordered."

Looking at the stack of empty plates on her side-when compared to yours-some part of you believes that to be false. You don't even have to say anything for her to realize she's not one to fulfill her own word either.

"Okay-I would have paid 25 percent."

You can't place any blame on her. She laughs-at herself. She's so charming, a pleasure to watch, that you would let her slide, had this not been your intention right from the start.

"Stop."

You end up laughing with her too.

-----

"Seriously. Don't lie, you promise you won't just suddenly quit on us?" Yujin asks, staring at you as you walk toward your parked vehicles outside the eatery. "This feels like a way to soften the blow."

Both of you stop right in front of your cars. "Not at all," you tell her, staring directly into her eyes. "What else do I have to do to prove that I'm not quitting?"

"I don't know, sir. I mean-you, suddenly asking me to eat out-" she rolls her eyes away, skeptical- "You've never done that."

The cold nighttime air sweeps all over you. Chilly, you rub your arms together, partially regretting the decision to cover Yujin with your coat. She's relatively unfazed, warm in your garment; even more surprisingly, it fits her perfectly like a glove.

"I wouldn't leave if it means I lose you, Yujin."

It's not the words you wanted to say. Every part of that sentence leaves your lips effortlessly. A little too effortless.It's an unconfessed confession, waiting for the right moment to be spoken. Sure, she may interpret it as merely you being codependent on her when it comes to work, but there's no way there isn't some kind of other, deeper meaning behind them.

"Lose me? What does that mean?" She asks, even more curious. Of course, Yujin isn't the brain of your operations for nothing. It isn't surprising when she figures you out. "You like me, don't you?"

Just like that, the tables have turned. You can't deny your feelings any longer.

You gently nod. Perhaps the killing blow could be softer if you find closure, right here, right now.

She leans forward, both of you unable to do anything other than to stare into each other's deep, longing eyes. The tension between you is the only source of heat in the midst of a cold, lonely night.

By all accounts, the relationship between you and Yujin is strictly professional. Apart from a few trips abroad, you keep all conversations business related. Mind-numbing, confusing agency jargon. It's a helpful practice in keeping your space; no matter how attractive she may look and saccharine she may sound, no amount of pleasantry can make company discussion remotely close to entertaining. You'd rather play with the blinds in your office. She's doing her part too: clock in at nine, clock out at five on the dot. It's a healthy routine. After hour talks between you are rare. It's common practice to maintain a firm working relationship. It's also just common sense. Good organization begins at the top.

Moments like these are strong reminders on why you avoid crossing that line. Yet you don't stop-not when she's the one making the first move.

You kiss. Your lips stay a little longer than they should. The taste lingers.

You find solace in each other's warmth, in a comforting embrace. She rests her head on your chest, her hands gripping into your shirt tightly. Deep down, you both recognize you're on borrowed time. Whether through your promotion or your release, you won't be together for much long. Countless hours spent together, so many occasions-the opportunities are being handed to you on a silver platter, only for you not to take the chance.

Not anymore. You won't make the same mistake again.

-----

Driving her home was easy; finding your way into your room was half the battle.

"It took us this long to share a room, huh?" Yujin huffs against your face, finding and capturing your lips even in an erratic, volatile environment. She's pushing you against the wall, her palms having an iron grip on your cheeks, pulling you close and wildly kissing you. The entire trip up to your apartment floor has been nothing but shaky kisses and clothes slowly scattering from the elevator to your front door.

"We should have done this a long time ago," you manage to mutter, holding her face away for a brief respite to answer, only to be forced back in once again. Any semblance of professionalism between you is abandoned for fiery, passionate lovemaking, future relationships be damned.

The most surprising thing is how it isn't as messy as it may look. See, despite the bite marks on your skin, the wrinkles in your clothes, and the rather loud, unceremonious manner you enter your apartment, you're still in the process slowly unraveling. There's a conscious effort to make sure neither side comes out completely in ruins. A silent agreement between you.

Her hands lay claim to your shirt, threatening to tear you apart if you don't do the same to her. She lifts her head when you quickly peel through her long skirt; you dive in and make it yours. The crack in her voice as she mewls tickles your ears just right. Slowly spreading her legs wide, pulling the panties down her well defined thighs. In response, she tugs at your shirt, popping a few buttons loose. It isn't as easy as it looks to have Yujin pinned against the wall; she's actively fighting, trying to seize back control. If she can't have her way with you, at the very least she can rein you in. Only now do you realize the danger your little escapede.

With her slender legs wrapped around your waist, you can only do so much. Yujin can't stop kissing you, leading your gaze to anywhere but her pretty, lust-ridden expressions. She wants this more than you do. Against your desires, you end up in the kitchen, propping her on the bar counter as lipstick covers your entire face. The brief respite when she catches her breath gives you ample time to unbutton the rest of your shirt before tossing it aside-something you don't give her the decency to finish.

While she's still staggering, lost in her own thoughts, you take her by the shoulder and leave a fresh mark on her neck. A distraction. More importantly, your fingers feel their way around the back of her dress, find the touch of metal-and yank. The zipper follows, the lengthy garment gradually coming undone, until Yujin pushes the rest of it off her shoulders and to the floor. Your eyes gleam like starlight as her bra reveals itself, taking countless mental snapshots at that moment.

Not even her attempts to redirect your attention can pull you away.

You push her down on the marble surface. The bar is big enough to fit you both. Joining her atop the counter, your gaze wanders down her divine figure-and you don't know where to start. Everything about Yujin is designed to be as perfect as humanly possible. No one should be flawless.

"How can you be any more perfect, Yuj," you mutter, eyes roaming everywhere, soaking in the immaculate sight before you. "How did I not want you any sooner?"

Yujin's hand traces down your arm. "You could have just asked. My previous employers did. It was a regular part of the job for me."

You're shaking your head. Imagine that-an employer taking advantage of their employee offering themselves without any restraint. You would never-except you already did. Your previous assistant can vouch.

"Don't feel sorry. I want this just as much as you do," she adds, pulling you towards her face for a soft kiss, clearing all doubt. "Besides, you're not that much different from any of them. Why stop now?"

"Not that different? Were they just as codependent on you as I am?"

Nodding in agreement, she laughs.

"God fucking dammit."

You sigh. Yujin continues laughing. What a momentum killer. And the worst part is, it's self-inflicted and completely avoidable. You should have just kept going, kept her speechless.

Still, it's not the end of the world. You're on top of Yujin; she has no intention of leaving you anytime soon. Most importantly, she's unhooking her bra while you're caught up in your feelings. "But-there's one difference: I actually love working for you. I wouldn't mind letting you use me."

"You love working for me? Why?"

She's biting her lip, grabbing you by the back of your head. "You'll find out yourself. You know what to do."

"What? How?" The word comes out panicked, desperate.

Yujin shakes her head, the smirk on her lips twisting, wicked. "You know how."

At first, finding what she means proves to be a struggle. After all, Yujin's not the mysterious type. She always tells you everything straight, condenses complex conversations into digestible servings for easy consumption. It's not in her character. Yet, one look at what's in front of you-her naked frame casually lying beneath yours, her hands running all over your bare self-the realization hits you like lightning, and you're mentally punching yourself for being so dangerously oblivious.

You kiss her on the lips again. You can't get enough. You'd happily stay in this position all night long. Except that isn't what she wants. She wants you to go further.

So you sink further and further down. The closer you get, the more she opens up. A sloppy trail follows your lips, from her chin, to her collarbones, to her chest and navel, and everything else in between. She's soft to the touch, so flexible and malleable-every part of her, you make yours. Then you get to her core, her inner thighs spreading, and watch as it unravels before you, quivering, soaked, needy. You look into each other's eyes, hers anticipating. There's a craze behind your irises, as if some repressed need is crawling back to the surface. It's slowly driving you wild.

Your name drips on the edge of Yujin's mouth-a sign of impatience-before suddenly cracking at the point of impact. She rolls her head back, her voice reduced to an airy sigh as your tongue licks up her slit, her entrance, in a slow upward motion. It takes every ounce of your willpower not to devolve into a hungry, primal mess. Her thighs close in and clamp you down, suffocating you while you become more familiar with the sensation and taste of her dripping cunt.

If only you could hear the full extent of her moans, turning a pitch higher with each passing swipe and slurp. You're humming into her core, satiated and fulfilled with the taste of her slick in your mouth. Yujin's hands stretch out for help, for stability as pleasure gradually overwhelms her. Propped underneath her thighs, your hands dig under to reach places that your tongue can't. She grows erratics, restless, moved by your presence inside her.

"Fuck!" The profanity escapes her lips instinctually, like it's always been a part of her. She's writhing, jaw slack, her back arched over the bar, her hands now grasping on your hair, then on the edges again. On your side, the pressure her thighs bring leave you suffocating. It's too much. You should be begging for your life; instead, you're enjoying every minute, slowing your pace every now and then to savor the feeling.

Despite her state, she's caught you by the wrists. They do little in stopping your tongue from consuming every inch of her, and you end up pushing her forward. You grip her by her thighs and spread her wide. She can't resist. Fresh air has never felt more soothing to the lungs. By the way you have her legs dangled up in the air, you're threatening to pull a nerve. She's screaming, crying out in desperation,

Still, it doesn't change the outcome. Yujin finally loses herself completely and comes undone. She cums-blasts jets of slick all over your face and mouth. The counter pools with the aftermath of her orgasm, and you lick it all up, sanitation be damned.

When you finally emerge from the depths of her tight, drenched cunt, she remains a mess, stamina completely drained, body still trembling from her massive climax. You'd think after that, she would be incapacitated for the night, until-

"Wait." Yujin deeply exhales, pulls you by the wrist. You aren't exactly going anywhere. As if struck by lightning, she suddenly rises up. A shit-eating grin forms on her lips, as if the damage wasn't enough to take her down. There's a familiar look in her eyes-the gaze of a woman who needs more.

She flicks a sample of her slick from the spot on the counter and laps it up, still eying you with unceasing lust. You remember her words, the question to ponder: "You're gonna tell me now?"

Yujin blankly stares. The question lingers for a little while. "Tell you what?" she replies, the tone convincing enough to feign innocence.

"Why you love working for me."

She smiles again, a teasing look. "You're halfway there."

"What does that mean?" As you try not to overreact, your assistant turned one night stand tries to stifle her laughter. It almost goes unnoticed, until- "Yuj, you're really getting on my nerves with all this vaguery bullshit going on."

"It's part of the fun, is it not? Do you want me to give it straight?"

"Yes! Like always!"

Yujin leans close. One hand reaches for your pants, the other still attached to your wrist. She appears like she's going for yet another kiss, when she stops right next to your ear and whispers, "I want you to fuck me. Use me," before drawing herself away.

On the surface, the stare you give her looks cold. Deep in your mind, the words resonate and ring louder and louder. Four words. "Fuck me-" "Use me-" The arousal bubbles up, manifests on your cheeks. The next few minutes can go so many ways, more than you can imagine. In your eyes, she's still your assistant, a friendly, dependable worker whom you consider a close acquaintance more than anything.

The thing is: you've already gone far past the point of no return. Her gaze is enticing-demanding-you to keep going.

There's no stopping now.

Yujin casually follows you to your bedroom, hand in tow. The rest of your clothes lie discarded in the kitchen-boxers, pants, and all. Gone are the nerves and hesitations; the attitude you have towards her is different. "Lay down," you command her, voice steely, and she obliges, the bed flopping with the slight crash of her lithe figure. You won't ever grow tired of staring at her naked body, regardless of it's position.

She lays flat on her tummy, observing you rummage through your large closet of suits, pulling a red tie from one of the drawers. "Not the first time I've had something wrapped around my neck," she remarks, raising a curious eyebrow, crooked smile unyielding. "Stylish, just like you."

"I wasn't asking for your input." You're never this stern towards Yujin. You toss the necktie on the mattress before joining her atop the bed. "Turn around."

Like the good girl she is, she obliges. That's Yujin for you; she'll always follow everything you tell her, no questions asked. On her fours, her plump ass glides face up, in complete view. Another temptation, another part of her to claim as yours. Regardless, you're in no hurry; you've got the rest of the night.

With your erect cock in hand, you line the tip against her sopping cunt. She winces, moans at the contact. "Oh, fuck-" she whines, lifting her head up, her nails pressed into the sheets. As inviting as the call of her tight, wet pussy is to you, you make an organized effort to resist the immediate lull to fuck her hard.

Even holding her figure with your other hand proves to be a nightmare. Her body enraptures you in hypnotic ways. The arch of her back, the curve of her ass, the hourglass frame-it's a feast for the eyes. You could take your sweet time and worship every little part of Yujin and she wouldn't mind, but in the midst of your blinding daze, she's calling to you. Again.

"Are you just gonna admire me or are you gonna shove that big cock in me?" She faces you with a mischievous grin. "I don't mind both."

Suddenly, you remember your position in this relationship. You grab her by the throat, face her away again. "Quiet. I don't want to hear any more from you unless you're taking this fucking cock."

Showing a little resistance, she tries daring you, "Then f-fuck!"

Her jaw goes wide, frozen in place, her voice abruptly cutting as you undercut her with your cock. You're no better; pleasure sets your muscles ablaze as you thrust into her inviting cunt. It shows in the deep groan spilling from your mouth. Little by little, you plunge ever so deep until you feel yourself buried to the hilt. That's when you finally let out this breath of relief-but not for long.

Her pussy clenches hard. Her heat proves to be suffocating beyond measure. If you don't act quickly, she could end you in seconds.

"O-oh God-"

You slowly, painstakingly pull back before throttling your hips into her. Taking these short breaths, every little move you make is precarious. It's not that she's resisting you-far from it-but it's you resisting the urge to cum so soon. Your mind tries to think of anything other than what's right in front, but even that proves to be nearly impossible. The ripple of her ass, the slight wobble of her breasts, the twisting grip of your hand on her otherwise soft skin-

"So fucking tight. Holy fuck, Yuj-" You manage to mutter before you're reduced to groans again.

All you can focus on is keeping yourself together while you're slowly crumbing away. You find a rhythm in the midst of the madness, pounding away at your assistant's cunt, your senses overrun by pleasure and the satisfying sound of your skin slapping skin. Elsewhere, your hands can't seem to find solace in just one area. They're everywhere; from her hair, to her throat, to the arch of her ass, to her hips, the imprints stay new, eventually creating a patterned sequence that immediately breaks.

You're fucking these strained cries and prasies out of Yujin's sweet lips, and it's quite the mouthful. 'More,' 'harder,' 'so good-' until it reaches the point where her voice is so worn from your chokehold that she can only speak in high pitched mewls. Another cycle you wish would never end.

Slowing your pace, you reach for the necktie, gently tying it around her neck while preventing your rhythm from disrupting. "You're such a fucking perfect woman, you know that?" you mutter in her ear, kissing the helix and indulging in the scent of her perfume mixed with sex and sweat. "Perfect listener, perfect assistant, perfect body-"

Pulling yourself away from her, you yank the tie along-your makeshift leash. Her body tilts all the way up, a sharp screech suddenly filling the bedroom. You're not sure if its from the pull or just her moan. Either way, you have her in your grasp. Brushing her hair aside, you mumble, "Actually, I don't know how to use a tie like that. I just wanted to remember what it's like to be the boss. Your boss."

It should have sounded flat, like all your other attempts at being convincing. And yet, she leans her ear backward, trying to recapture your lips. Teasing a little, your lips make what's considered the most minimal of contacts, before you push her to her fours. You don't intend to pull on the tie again, but you're still holding on to it like your most prized possession-and it may as well be Yujin.

"Of course," are her first words uttered in a while that aren't some combination of profanity and praise.

Grabbing her by the midsection, the rhythm of your thrusts quickens. You feel it. The imminent collapse. And it's not just the bed quaking and creaking from your sex. She's pleading now; 'So close,' she tells you, begs you to let her cum all over your cock. In any other scenario, you'd acquiesce. Here, with all the authority, you're going to assert your power a little.

"Say it. Say it and I'll let you cum all over me," you demand, your hand climbing up to her chest, grabbing at her breast, folding her up slightly that her grip on the sheets transfers to the headboard. "I wanted you so fucking bad for so long."

"Anything for you. Just let me cum!" she cries out, on the verge of falling apart. Dangerously close.

"Tell me I'm yours."

"I'm yours!"

"You know what I meant. Say it again."

"I'm yours! I'm yours!"

Hearing her declare that she belongs to you with such conviction almost upends you too. You almost give in, but narrowaly escape thanks to your utter resolve. The smirk on your face is priceless.

"Perfect. Now cum."

Just like that, her body reacts at the drop of your command, as if it was hardwired into her. Yujin goes numb-fidgeting, cumming all over your cock-as you continue to pound into her cunt. A single word echoes, going quieter with every incantation: 'Fuck,' she whines, caught reeling in her orgasm and catching every breath possible.

Eventually, it comes to a standstill, the only thing left is for you to crash. Lucky for her, you're not that far off. You've let go of the tie, holding onto her shoulders instead. So now it's her opportunity to turn the tables on you again.

"Fucking give it to me-oh I need it now, oh God-" Yujin begs, barely keeping herself upright in the aftermath of her climax.

And you just crash down on her, slamming her deep into the sheets, turning her around as you fuck callously, clamping her neck, her moans ringing into your ear. She has a leg wrapped arond yours-as if you had any intention of pulling out. You've spent enough time away from her pretty face; now you want to watch her take all your load deep in her pussy.

Yujin's mouth melds in the shape of a moan as the pressure finally overwhelms you. Burying yourself deep in her, you're still pumping, fucking your cock as you blast thick load after thick load in her warm, creamy cunt. The sensation leaves you breathless, hanging onto her for dear life as you wait for the moment to pass. Though it may seem like a couple of minutes, the feeling lingers far longer than you can imagine. She milks you of all your worth, drawing every last drop from your throbbing cock until your body can't move any longer.

Eventually, your bodies wind up together, limbs tangled, wrapped around each other in a warm embrace. The comfort you both needed after a long day.

-----

You gaze down at a tired Yujin. Hours ago, you were the one holding onto her; now she's the clingy one, wrapping an arm over you. "I really need to know, Yuj."

She mumbles into your chest. "What is it?" You feel her soft lips leave lipstick marks on your skin.

You're brushing away loose, dark strands of her hair to get a better look of her pristine, shiny face. "Why do you love working for me?"

After the passionate night you just had, you still have the gall to ask such a frivolous question. The answer should be obvious by now.

She looks up, smiling-a pleasant, friendly gleam, one you immediately recognize as soon as you walk through those office doors. "Because you're the first boss I've ever worked for that isn't a total asshole. Also, you're good at everything."

You raise an eyebrow and frown. "That's not-"

"You know what I meant, boss." The smiling turns into teasing. You realize, then you laugh.

You should be basking in the afterglow of sex, but daylight peeking through your curtain says otherwise. You're so tired, you can't move a muscle, let alone grab the phone from the living room to tell the time. All you know is that you should be at work by now, and so should Yujin.

The ring from your phone can be heard loud and clear, even a room and clothing pocket away. As you try to lift your head, Yujin meets you halfway, kissing you before laying you back down.

"Don't worry about it. I'll write up your leave of absence. Besides, I could use some time off too," she says, inching her face close to yours.

The notion frightens you. Yujin, your most reliable assistant, never missing a day that isn't considered a holiday, not by your side when you need her.

And you need her now more than ever.

"Time off? When?"

"From now. Until you say we're done."

GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE (TWICE TZUYU)

"I need your help."

You're typing up your next application letter when you're suddenly interrupted by Tzuyu's familiar voice. "Sure, what's up?"

There's no way you're turning down a request from Tzuyu.

She pauses for a moment, contemplating her next words carefully, knowing regardless of the outcome, everything will never be the same.

Then, she speaks.

"Can you be my boyfriend for a day?"

-----

You don't take it seriously. For one, you know damn well you don't deserve to breathe the same air as Chou Tzuyu, let alone earn the coveted title of 'boyfriend.' It's already a privilege to share rooms with her in college, how much more to be her personal tutor. Sure, she loves to mess around with you every now and then, but even by her standards, this is one joke too out there to make.

"Okay Tzu, very funny, but come to me when you actually need help with something," you tell her, chuckling, unable to hide your toothy smile before returning to your computer screen.

You overlook the intent behind her stare.

"I'm serious. I really need someone to pose as my boyfriend for a day," she replies, to the point. Another thing about living with Tzuyu is that she's always straightforward. There's no beating around the bush with her; everything she says is the truth. So why aren't you taking her plea with a little more genuine concern?

"Yeah. Me. Your boyfriend. As if that's gonna convince anyone," you reply, typing away at your keyboard, unfazed by her statement. You still don't buy it.

"Yes. I believe you can be my boyfriend."

You laugh again. More sarcastic than amused this time. "Real cute, Tzu." You face your roommate with an unamused grimace. "Now what do you want from me?"

"Do I need to slap you to prove I'm not lying?" Tzuyu returns your mockery with a contemptuous glare of her own.

Still under the impression that she's toying with you, you playfully challenge her. "Sure. I don't think you're being serious-"

A thunderous echo ripples between the space between you and Tzuyu, immediately closing the gap. Everything happens in an instant. You're sent swerving back, along with your swivel chair. A bright sore blot forms on your cheek, the pain not registering right away. A little more applied force on that hit and she would have dashed your head against the wall.

"Oh-damn." You groan, pressing a palm on the reddened area, flush with blood, as if a bump had formed from the sharp impact. "All right, I believe you now."

She's shaking her head, her expression intense, humorless. "Now will you hear me out?"

"Yes!" you shout at her, inflection teetering on screaming, nodding your head in agreement.

"Great. Go fix up your face first, then I'll explain everything," she says before turning away and walking out the front door, leaving you on your own to fix yourself.

-----

Tzuyu doesn't even come back to the apartment by the time you clean up yourself. It's late in the evening when she bursts in, bringing a few pairs of freshly bought expensive outfits. It's part of the package living with one of the richest women in your college. Her entire wardrobe is fitted with nothing but designer clothing, jewelry costing up to the hundreds of thousands, and tailor made outfits designed to fit only her and her alone. Her casual attire could be your Sunday best. Her pajamas could be your everyday wear. It's as if her entire personality is to be a model-and if she were, she'd be the face of every brand and on the front cover of every fashion magazine in existence.

"I know this sounds outrageous, but I want you to be my boyfriend even for a day," she repeats herself, the idea still too incomprehensible for your brain. You could listen to it again and again. For anyone, the thought is nothing but an impossible fantasy, but for Tzuyu to personally pick you, even if it's only make-believe, is something special.

You have more questions than answers. "Yeah, but why? Why do you want a boyfriend for a day?"

"I'm visiting my parents for the weekend. Well, I'm forced to."

In contrast to her extravagant lifestyle, she's sharing takeout chicken with you. More often than not, you eat the same food, with Tzuyu often deferring to you for choices. Usually fast food, it's actually her preference.

"Okay, so what does this have to do with having a boyfriend?"

She takes a sip of her sake. "They expect me to have one by the time I graduate."

"Okay and? What happens if you don't?"

"Arranged marriage. I promised my parents that I would find a boyfriend by the time I turn 25. It's how I got to be independent, how I got into college" -she faces you, her lovely eyes twinkling- "and how I met you."

Observing Tzuyu, you notice a few details. The most obvious being that she's pretty, even when chomping on a chicken leg's bone. The second is her worried gaze. This is something that's clearly been bothering her for a while. She has deferred to you countless times for multiple academic projects ranging from research to exams, each request building more and more trust, to the point where you've become her closest confidant, in addition to being her roommate. Unlike before, this is not a test with a defined system and something easily manipulated and planned for, and you can't really prepare any better either.

On your end, she pays generously; you're only applying for an internship because your course demands it. You could start your business with the money earned from helping her. But her payroll will eventually stop.

"Listen. We might never see each other again when we graduate in a few months, and I'm sure you're tired of me asking for your help when you could be doing more," she says, tone gloomy, nervous. "But this is more you being the only guy I can trust-this is my freedom on the line. Even if I mostly hated my time here, it's still better than whatever life they want for me."

You don't question her reasoning, even if that last bit sounds hyperbolic. Surely it can't be that bad. You and Tzuyu have a lot more in common than you realize: you don't like the college grind, you're both admittedly reclusive, and you'll miss each other's presence when the time comes.

"Couldn't you try getting someone as a stand-in? I'm not even in the top 100 most handsome guys in the student body. It'll never fly."

She chuckles, showing flashes of positive energy for the first time in a while. "Nope. They'd fumble the script so bad it wouldn't be worth the shot. I'd figure since you're like one of twelve people I constantly talk to, I could trust you to be a convincing enough boyfriend."

"Does it have to be a boyfriend? Why not a girl?"

"I wish. I'd love to bring Sana along, and she'd be such a joy for them, but boomer parents, am I right?"

You both share a hearty laugh.

"Anyway," Tzuyu puts away her plate, having finished her share of dinner to present you three shopping bags full of newly bought clothes. "These are all yours, just wear the one you like the most to our date. Plus I don't think I ever bought you new clothes?"

"Nope, nope you haven't." You shake your head, remembering that your current computer setup, PS5, Lego collection, and closet full of jackets and joggers that's been collecting dust in the corner of your room were all paid under Tzuyu's name.

-----

"You never told me they were still living in Taiwan," you say to Tzuyu, watching the ground from your airplane seat, which happens to be next to the wing. You've never been on a flight before-until now. Something you should have admitted, but your pride got in the way. "I thought you said they owned property here!"

Tzuyu blushes in shame. "Did I?" she questions herself, before suddenly recalling, "Oh yeah! I lived here when I was in fourth grade. It was only one year though. I loved my schooling here; they didn't."

None of what she said fully registers in your brain. What does occupy your head is the idea of plummeting 30,000 feet from the air. Even with all the safety measures, your mind races with a hundred scenarios ending in your sudden and tragic demise.

As the plane begins to move before eventually ascending, you can't stare away as outside scenery turns into vague blurs sweeping by. In just a few moments, you're so far high that you can only see clouds. It sends your brain into overdrive. Meanwhile, Tzuyu's completely relaxed, having placed a sleep mask for the 15 hour flight to come. She doesn't have to see at your worst, repeatedly cursing over the sound of music playing through her earphones. At least you're comfortably secluded in first class, where each pair of passengers occupy their own private cabin for sleeping, eating, and even showering. No one can hear you scream.

The staff can't come fast enough, even if closing the blinds is the simplest thing you can do.

-----

On arrival, Tzuyu's surprises keep coming in droves. A personalized driver and car awaits at the airport's exit, carrying all your luggage by himself. He's got his own expensive suit, opening the rear passenger doors on your behalf.

"Welcome home, Miss Chou. And this companion of yours is?"

"My boyfriend," she warmly tells the driver, eliciting a curious look from him towards you. You're not doing anything wrong-yet-but you can tell by his expression that you're not giving off a good first impression. "I'm taking him to meet my parents."

"Of course. Where shall I drive you? Shall I take you directly to them today?"

"No. I'd like to spend the rest of the day at my own place."

"Certainly. Penthouse it is."

After a leisurely half-hour drive through the city, the car pulls up in front of a high-rise building. The front entrance alone can be its own five-star luxury hotel and resort. Tzuyu says only millionaires are able to buy and own flats here, which makes her ownership of the penthouse even more absurd. Only now you're witnessing the fullest extent of her wealth after seeing brief flashes throughout college.

Her lavish penthouse welcomes you from the moment you step off the elevator. Despite being away for years, the place looks as good as new, well-maintained in her absence. Every single room is twice the size of your whole apartment back home, with countless amenities and utilities dedicated to a certain purpose. There's up to five bedrooms, each decked with their own king-size mattress and as many bathrooms to accommodate up to four guests at a time. The whole setup is topped up by a background of the city skyline seen through floor wide glass windows.

You don't really have any words to say at this point. You're just soaking it all in, filled with wonder and awe.

"All this and you still chose to live in a regular ass dorm," you comment, pressing one of the piano keys, its sound echoing all over the massive place. "You've got to be fucking shitting me."

"Didn't really have a choice," she says, pacing in and out of the rooms, her voice reverberating throughout the living room. "I had to get close to someone, and having my own place was not gonna help whatsoever."

"Christ-" you mutter to yourself, still taken aback at how fucking expensive Tzuyu lives. Someone of her kind shouldn't be pretending to act like everyone else-struggling to get by and having to grind their ass off. She doesn't need anything beyond a high school diploma and some common sense; she should be enjoying herself, living a larger than life lifestyle that others will be jealous of.

Still, this shouldn't be stressing her out. Despite her numerous rebuttals, she could have easily placed someone else in your shoes right now, someone more capable to face her seemingly stringent family.

You can only draw it up to rich people problems, something you'll likely never experience in your lifetime.

"Would you like to go out for dinner later? Or would you like for us to just have delivery instead?" Tzuyu asks, approaching you with an endearing smile and an enticing offer: on her hand are a dangling pair of keys with a prancing horse etched on them.

She has you under her spell, if everything else wasn't convincing enough.

"Name me a nice place to eat and I'll think about it."

-----

You end up staying out way later than intended.

It's a miracle her car doesn't have a single dent by the time you return to the condominium. In the time you've spent with Tzuyu, you've grown more comfortable with the girlfriend role given to you. You don't even wait for the valet driver to open her side of the door; the act comes naturally. She steps out of the vehicle, one leg peeking through her dress, and it's the hottest thing you've ever seen. She reaches out her hand for you to take, and it feels like a habit you've been doing for years.

You've gotten your fair share of jealous looks over the past few hours. Even now, bystanders in the front lobby are making a scene out of you being together. All of them are asking the same question: how does someone like you have a woman like Chou Tzuyu by your side.

Deep down, you recognize it's an act, a part of the show. Tzuyu knows this too. She sells her parts like she's selling her beauty: naturally well. On the other hand, you are showing tiny cracks on your face, only crumbling after you disappear from everyone's view behind that elevator.

"So, are you ready for tomorrow?" she asks you, friendly and soft as ever.

You sigh, unable to find it in you to answer. Even as you open your mouth, you lack the conviction to give off a confident response, and it shows in your word choice. "Maybe."

Tzuyu furrows an eyebrow, frowning. "What's up?"

You can't even look at her as you talk, only finding some semblance of relief watching the city from your view. Lovely, just like Tzuyu. "What if this doesn't work," you tell her, tone low, evidently anxious. What if-"

"Don't overthink it," she turns you toward her, brushing a hand up and down your shoulder. For a moment, you see her eyes gleam with the night life's reflection. "Even if it all goes horribly wrong, the blame completely falls on me. Remember that."

"I might never see you again. Hell, you might never go back," you reply, your doubts not quelled in the slightest. Neither of you care that you've got your hands on each other, unwilling to let go.

"We'll cross that bridge when we get there," she says, unfazed by your pessimism. "At least I made up for everything you've done for me, including this."

"Really? As if you haven't been doing that since I first helped you-"

Tzuyu laughs, her cheeks flush in embarrassment. "I got nothing better to spend it on. Might as well do it on someone who actually deserves it."

You're not sure whether to feel elated or flattered by that statement. Your rosy cheeks say the former. Perhaps this is a consequence of spending way too much time with her, or that you've been putting plenty of investment in your role. Either way, you're better off spending the remainder of your night not overthinking about it. It's been a long day.

"I'm going to bed. It's getting late, and you said we're getting picked up early tomorrow."

"Right. I completely forgot, too. I guess we must have been having too much fun together, huh?"

Neither of you even bring up the fact that you were holding each other close the entire time, bordering on romance. It's probably for the best.

-----

"Hey."

Tzuyu's feathery voice brings your attention back to reality. For most of the ride, you've been mindlessly staring out the window. From passing cars to idle trees, from long stretches of highway to winding mountain roads. Chatter inside the vehicle passes through your ears like radio static. Thoughts racing in your mind comprise numerous outcomes and what-ifs, none of which you're able to see the ending. Never mind the fact that she's looking her most divine, her most prim, perfectly suited for such a special occasion. The less you think about what's ahead, the better.

She doesn't make it any easier, especially when she's leaning forward with her seatbelt, her warm expressions invoking sweet innocence and genuine concern. Her fingers are twiddling with yours, gripped to the leather seats, trying to get as much of your interest. "You all right?"

You swallow down a nonexistent lump in your throat. "I'm fine. What is it?"

"My parents are asking what your favorite food is so they can prepare it for you."

"Tell them I like beef," is your immediate response before looking out the window again. She doesn't press you any further, thankfully leaving you with your thoughts for the rest of the drive.

The car eventually stops in front of a large gate. Not a sign of security in sight, except for a pair of cameras positioned on both ends. After a brief scan, the entryway opens of its own accord. You've left the city so far behind, you might as well be high above the sky.

A couple more miles of driving till you finally reach your destination: a large mansion with a fountain statue in front of the entrance. A dozen expensive cars are parked right outside, all covered in sheets for safety. None of these details are surprising considering you've previously seen Tzuyu's wealth firsthand. You're starting to believe the rumors about her being the heiress of some business empire are true.

The driver needlessly announces that you've arrived before he steps out to open the passenger doors-Tzuyu first, then yours.

To think you'd end up getting involved in family affairs straight out of a soap opera.

Tzuyu looks you in the eye, reaching out her hand with a reassuring nod. No words, just shared confidence and a slither of hope between you both. Despite the initial hesitation, you hold her and together, you enter the unknown.

Inside, more lavish decor greets you everywhere. Stuff that's more alienating than welcoming. It's a daunting presence being here that you end up forgetting to remove your shoes before entering, despite the butler's admonishment. Tzuyu ends up snapping you back, and you quickly swap your footwear for theirs before advancing. Mercifully, there's only two pairs of eyes in the room watching, but one is observing you through a harsh gaze.

The servant leads you out to a garden where you finally get a glimpse at Tzuyu's parents for the first time. Also laid out on the lawn is a large table with different kinds of food being prepared by other butlers. Unsurprisingly, she runs ahead to greet them, leaving you on your own to introduce yourself to them.

"Welcome home, Tzu," says both Papa Chou and Mama Chou to their daughter while she runs to her father, throwing a huge bear hug. She gives her mother a similarly loving embrace after.

Meanwhile, you're taking little steps down the stairs to the garden, continually reminding yourself not to fuck up.

"Oh! Right-" Tzuyu looks in your direction, notices your plodding pace. She's pointing you out to her parents like you're the most important person in the room. "That-that's my boyfriend over there."

At this point, you can easily fold a dozen different ways. Piss your pants, shit on them, run away like a spotted convict. You know as much about her family as anyone else in your position; the information given to you is incredibly scarce and vague at best. But you're bound to Tzuyu's hand like a string to a yarn. Your only saving grace is the hope that this event is a quick dine and drive and not some grandiose festivity.

It doesn't help that the entire time you've spent with Tzuyu, not a single minute was spent on acting like her boyfriend.

All eyes fall upon you. It should have been a familiar feeling, something you can easily adjust to, but it isn't. This is different. It's not the same as being around friends and no-name strangers. Family judgment lingers on, especially after you're through. Every little move counts.

Bowing to her parents, you pull your attempt at a friendly smile, falling somewhere between the line of goofy and awkward. "Great to meet you, Papa and Mama Chou."

Your 'girlfriend' looks at you with a heightened sense of pride, convincing enough to be sincere. She's hard carrying you in the acting department. Smiling more softly, she adds, "Shall we eat?"

-----

You and Tzuyu are seated opposite her parents on the large table, with a scrumptious feast filling in the space between. Food is eaten in small increments, with most of the lunch spent on lengthy conversation. It's more of an interrogation and less of a friendly scene.

"So-how did you meet?" asks Papa Chou, tone as typical of a protective father, cold, calculated, and stern.

"He was my roommate when I got into university," Tzuyu replies, constantly shooting quick glances at you, eating your share leisurely. Both of you agreed that unless asked, she'd take on the role of your mouthpiece. You're nodding; you'd say the same thing-and it's one of the few things that's true. "It was a chance encounter."

"A roommate? As in-you moved into a dorm?"

"Not exactly a dorm, but an apartment close to campus. The dorms were too small to fit all my stuff in."

"You should have just moved into the dorms," he says, aggressively munching his meal between sentences. "How can you sleep peacefully at night knowing he's just right next door?"

"All right, let's not offend our guest here." Mama Chou interjects, trying to change the course of the conversation. You'd immediately refute him if your mouth isn't filled with food at the moment. She faces you, asking, "So, how long have you been dating?"

Now you're swallowing hard, caught off-guard by the surprise question aimed at you. Tzuyu's hands are tied; she's watching, but she won't be saving you.

"About three years," you say, staring back at your 'girlfriend,' looking for a lifeline by simply staring at her. You're in love; no you're not. "Some of our schedules overlapped too, so we helped each other out."

"Yeah," adds Tzuyu, nodding in agreement. "Without his help, I wouldn't have passed some of my classes. If nothing else, he's been nothing but kind and gracious to me."

"That's great to hear." Mama Chou smiles; she's clearly the friendlier and more approachable of the two parents so far. "I'm glad our daughter has a friend she can trust in college. But do you not have other friends too?"

"I've made a few friends besides him too." Tzuyu interjects, stepping in right as you're about to continue speaking. She presents a photo of her social circle at a restaurant, consisting entirely of the women she's close with, including a fellow Taiwanese student. You met most of them because of her. "I hang out with the girls more than him, so don't worry."

"They're all pretty." Mama Chou looks at the picture with delight. On the other hand, Papa Chou remains stone faced and unimpressed. She's pointing her finger at the girl to her daughter's right. "Especially her."

"Oh, her? That's Sana from Japan. She's my best friend actually," replies Tzuyu, grinning toothily recalling her. "And the two behind her are Japanese too-Momo and Mina."

"So it's a multinational university? That's cute."

"We're still few and far between," she corrects, putting away her phone. "It's just that we happened to enter university at the same time, and we're all foreigners, so we bonded through our shared experience living far from home. We'll be graduating together in a few months."

Her mother continues to nod concurrently, turning her attention away from her daughter to you again. "So what happens after you graduate? What are your plans?"

Initially, you hesitate, reaching a crossroads. You can follow the broad outline given by Tzuyu: something about opening a restaurant franchise, following her family's footsteps in running a business empire, or say it as it is.

"I-don't really know to be honest," you tell her, glancing at Tzuyu, and she blinks rapidly, her smile wobbling. To everyone else, she looks calm otherwise. "I'm focusing on my studies right now, and I'll cross that bridge when I get there."

"What course are you taking?"

"Mechanical Engineering. I want to work with cars and all that."

"So you like cars, hm?" Papa Chou interrupts, leaning his head forward with intrigue. "Tell me-you watch F1? You better be!"

"Absolutely!" You're staring at him, taking control over the conversation, growing comfortable with your newfound position.

"What's your team? You better not say Red Bull or Ferrari."

"McLaren."

"Driver?"

"Lando."

He laughs-heartily. He's offering his hand for you to shake, which you do. You're then tugged forward by the harsh tug of his grip, much to the amusement of everyone else. "I think we're gonna get along just fine."

Before you know it, you're being pulled aside and dragged away from Tzuyu and her mom, leading you to the other side of the mansion.

-----

"Good God," you say, your jaw agape, blown away at what Papa Chou is presenting you: an orange McLaren F1 tucked away inside an enormous garage filled with other luxury cars. "This-this is my dream car."

"Handsome, right?" He's leaning by the door, grinning like a child. "It's got a thousand miles on it too. Wifey doesn't really like it, though. Says it takes up too much space in the garage."

"Shit-sorry for my language-how'd you end up buying this?" you ask, swinging open the opposite butterfly door, admiring the interior. "There's just no way this is real-"

"It's as real as real gets." He cuts you off, chuckling at your utter disbelief. "I bought it off some English comedian, then I had it restored and repainted. Says he's crashed it a few times. Maybe he has, as you kids say, skill issue."

"So-why are you showing me this?" you ask, turning to him as you're both seated on opposing passenger sides.

"I was going to give this away to the one who was supposed to marry her," he says, holding his side of the steering wheel. "But she wanted to live away from us. Very far away."

You raise your eyebrows, curious.

"Tzuyu is a good person. She's kind, compassionate and looks after those she's close with. But she's also blunt and to the point," he continues, facing you mid-conversation. "If she feels that something is wrong, she won't hesitate to call it out. She doesn't care whether you're friend or family. She trusts her intuition first above everything. So for her to have a boyfriend only means one thing: she really has full confidence in that person.

"I think you're a good guy, and I thank you for helping her. But I don't want my daughter to come home with a broken heart. I would tell you to leave her alone, but I don't think she would want me to say that. So, I only want you to promise me this one thing."

"And that is?"

"Make her feel she's not alone."

You blink. Again. A few times for good measure. There's a lot to comprehend and digest, even when it's been simplified to a simple promise. You're not sure whether you can agree to that. It may be a straightforward command, but it's one with a lot of weight borne on its shoulders.

"Promise me that you won't leave her alone when you go back. Believe me when I say I haven't seen her face shine that bright in years. I want to see my daughter smiling like that again when she comes home in the future. So I know she's in good hands. Make sure she does not regret her decision."

You look away, hesitant, uncertain whether this is still all for show or a genuine reminder. Now you realize how deeply connected you are to Tzuyu. You don't remember life before meeting her, and you can't imagine a life after her.

"I will."

It isn't the answer you want to give. You're still trying to fully grasp everything. However, it is the answer that he wants to hear.

-----

After lunch, you and Tzuyu are left to your own devices. Your private talk with her father is played off as a fun discussion about his love for cars, completely disregarding the actual content of your conversation. Probably for the best; such an occasion demands a positive vibe overall. You spend the afternoon exploring their gigantic mansion, amazed by the vastness of the place over the grandiose material taking most of the space. If not for the presence of a butler at every corner, you can easily get lost for days.

"How long did you live here till you moved out?" you ask Tzuyu, examining a childhood photo of her with her family, including someone you haven't met-her brother.

"Lived here during my teens. Was homeschooled throughout my primary years. Moved out when I was sixteen entering senior high." She notices you taking a hold of her family picture, particularly noting her brother. "He's also studying abroad, too. Not as far away as me, but still far from home."

"Does he know?" You turn to Tzuyu, lifting an eyebrow.

"Of course he does," she says, facing you with that trademark gummy smile. "He thinks you're cute, if you're wondering."

"No, no. I meant-"

"Oh-sorry I misunderstood," she replies, laughing, blushing with embarrassment. "But he was the one who convinced me to move out. He told me if I don't experience everything for myself, then I'm not living."

You agree. You're worlds apart, from completely different backgrounds, different upbringings. And yet, you've been brought together by some divine intervention, finding common ground to stand on.

"So-what did my dad tell you in private?" she asks, her eyes wandering back to the photo, lasering in on her father.

You pause, reluctant to reveal the truth, even if she'll most likely believe you. "Not much. Just showed me his car collection."

She grins. Innocent as it may look, she knows that's not the full truth. "He told you something about me, didn't he?"

Your heart is racing. For how dependent she is on you, she can be rather intelligent and clever.

"He definitely told you something. I just know."

Tzuyu looks around and finds no one in sight. After double checking, she takes you by the wrist, dragging you along. She moves quickly, even through her heels. She takes you up the stairs and into an unexplored room, releasing you forward without care once inside. While you're staggering and struggling to stay planted on your feet, she shuts the door behind you both and locks it.

There are no cameras in the room to catch you, and the blinds are completely closed off. It's just you two again.

"That's quiet enough." Tzuyu steadily approaches you with a new demeanor-a straight, serious attitude reminiscent of her father. "I shouldn't have to ask twice. What did my dad tell you?"

You were going to explain everything without the extra theatrics anyway, but admittedly you're now feeling more secure to admit in private. Their security cameras can catch strange sights, but not sounds. Hell, maybe the little stunt she pulled could be more suspicious than anything else.

"He told me to look after you. Make you feel not alone," you say, unable to look her directly in the eye, your gaze wandering left and right. "He also said that you're in good hands because of me."

Tzuyu remains silent, only staring right at you as she draws ever closer. She doesn't know exactly how to react or what to say in light of your confession. You can tell the moment the wind in her sails has been knocked out: when you said love.

"How did he come to that conclusion?" she asks, the gap between you only breaths apart.

"He said that you trust your intuition more than anything," you reply, tone low but straight, mustering the strength to meet her halfway. "And that you haven't been smiling like that for so long."

She furrows her eyebrow, taken aback by the last statement. "Really? He did not-"

"He really did. I'm just telling you everything as I heard it," you say, grinning through your teeth, laughing. There goes the little tension between you.

"Can he not-" Tzuyu cracks, strutting around you, toward the lone king-sized bed similar to the one in her penthouse. "He literally calls me all the time. Hell, he was calling me the night before our flight. Don't believe him."

"I won't," you reply, still chuckling.

Your gaze wanders down her baby blue dress, perfectly fit and tailored for her light frame. The lengthy skirt flows around her legs like water. As is her long hair, a mixture of black and brunette. You don't have to state the obvious, but you still feel the need to say it: Tzuyu is incredibly pretty. She's been hearing that from everyone from the moment she was born. No amount of repetition can truly describe how attractive she looks, like this one occasion was designed specifically for her.

"So-he says I trust my intuition more than anything," she mutters, glancing around the room. The bedroom belongs to none other than Tzuyu herself. It's the place she grew up in, and she feels nostalgia being inside it after being gone for so long. Her hands brush along the edge of the mattress, deep in thought. "I never really thought of it like that."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't really know, to be honest. But he's right about one thing," she says, turning around to face you. She's taking a good look at you from the neck down, and for the first time in your life, you're dressed like someone worthy of a person like her. "I do love you."

Before you even have a second to react, everything goes off. She catches your lips with hers. It's instantaneous.

Her hands take hold of your body, still unsure of what to do. You know exactly what to do, though, and that's to give in. You don't give it a second thought. You yield to her touch and melt into her passionate kiss, pressing deeper and exploring her shapely figure in return. You're pulling on each other's clothes and skin, unwilling to let go.

You can taste the pent-up need on each other's lips.

Yeah, you love her too, actually.

You love her dress too-not only because baby blue perfectly suits Tzuyu like butter on bread, but also because it leaves her back exposed to your touch. She hums, whines into your lips, sucking on air between hungry kisses, taken by surprise of this new sensation. In response, she's tugging on your dress coat, pushing it off your shoulders and down to the floor.

"How long have you wanted to tell me that?" you mutter, breaking off the kiss, hot air pressed against her mouth.

"I was gonna ask you the same thing," she replies, grinning through her sweet lips.

"I never said I love you though. Like at all."

"But I can tell by the way you're kissing me."

"Doesn't mean anything. I've seen Sana kiss you like this."

"And? Does that bother you?"

Her grin is turning into a wicked smirk. Slowly but surely.

"Not at all. I've been telling you right from the start: it should have been her, not me."

She shakes her head. "You want me to hurt Dahyun's feelings by bringing Sana along? You heartless fuck."

A new can of worms has just been opened up. None of which was ever in the equation till now. You regret stopping such an intimate moment for this conversation.

"It's either that or you lose me forever," she says, breaking the brief gap of silence. "And what could hurt you more?"

Nothing. The answer is nothing, but you don't want to directly admit it. You need Tzuyu.

So you end up kissing her again, and she graciously returns the love twofold. She needs you just as much. You're both meant for each other, and this is the sign.

You push her onto the bed, maintaining the connection as you continue to explore each other's clothed bodies. In any other situation, all your clothes would be scattered everywhere, and even in her childhood home, you're both more than willing to make the move. It's dangerous, yes, but that's what makes it fun and exciting. After all, she said it herself; if she wasn't trying, she wasn't living.

"Wait." Tzuyu mumbles against your mouth, gently pushing you off. You're halfway through pulling the zipper on her back when she suddenly snaps the link in half. You take the hint and clamber off.

Seeing Tzuyu flat on her back in bed, looking at you with lust-filled eyes, is a sight a thousand pictures worth taking. Your fingers are anxiously waiting, trembling in anticipation on the corner of your pants, ready to flip at the drop of her word. But then-

"Let's not. I mean, I don't wanna say it, but this is just a little too fast for my liking," she says, glancing around her bedroom. It would certainly be a strange feeling to get fucked in her childhood room, among other things. "Plus you know-"

She's pointing to the locked door behind you. While you both hear nothing at the moment, you never know who's right around the corner.

Wistfully, you sigh in despair. She sits up and pats you on the head.

"Sorry. I want it as much as you do, but not here. I almost let my thoughts get the best of me," she says regretfully.

"I understand," you reply, defeated and crestfallen, despite her efforts to comfort you.

Turning your head back, you find Tzuyu slipping a hand between her dress, fishing for the panties from her legs. She pushes them past her heels and places them beside her on the bed.

Aware of the consequences of what's about to happen, she looks at you with an inviting smile.

-----

"Oh-oh fuck-" whines Tzuyu, her thighs spread wide between your hungry, ravenous tongue. She's lying flat on the floor, giving you full access to her cunt, but with one condition: that her bed is not to be messed with in any capacity. Of course you took her up on that offer without hesitation; it's the easiest thing in the world to avoid when the space between the door and the mattress is just as long as the steps between the back garden and the mansion.

And as much as you want to tear through her dress and feel her pale, creamy skin, you still have to meet people looking as fresh as you possibly can. You're telling yourself this will be a quick affair, an appetizer for what's to come later in the night.

Except your brain says otherwise.

Your tongue flickers against Tzuyu's aching core in bursts. Slamming her eyes shut, she whines and whimpers. Her nails dig into the carpet floor, nerves trembling and convulsing with each flat lick and press on her wet cunt. It's evident in how violent her body reacts that she's new to this feeling, something she'll have to get used to.

Meanwhile, you're having a feast. You're lapping away at her dripping pussy, taking every little drop of slick into your mouth, and she's so generously soaked. Despite her reluctance, you're pulling her creamy thighs against your face, wanting her to suffocate you-to utterly ruin you. Even at her most vulnerable, she's still as careful and dainty as ever. A good girl, like her father says.

You wonder how he'll look at both of you after this.

"Mm-please, I don't wanna hurt you-" she mewls, making an effort to resist your push despite the constant surge of pleasure coursing through her body. Her lashes flutter as she struggles to open her eyes.

"I can take it-just give in-" you tell her, your voice muffled into her skin as you hungrily continue to eat her out. "You taste so fucking good."

Tzuyu eventually folds. Gives in to ecstasy and lets herself go. You're forcing these deep, whiny bursts from her mouth as you drag your tongue on her clit, satisfying her most sensitive spots. Her cries echo throughout the room, past the large doors. It's a dangerous place to be caught in, but you're so close to drawing everything out from her. You don't regret a single moment. As much as you want to pull out and replace it with your fingers, she tastes too good for your greedy mouth to share. You're going to drink her for all her worth.

Her voice cracks with every flick you give; her breaths grow frantic. At this point, the pleasure is becoming too much to bear; she can only grip the carpet tile and brace for impact. She's quivering as your fingers join your tongue in parting her cunt to be taken and used. It sounds sympathetic when she moans a high-pitched cry, declaring, "Gonna cum-fuck!"

It doesn't deter you in the slightest. Hell, it only encourages you more.

Except you don't get the pleasure of replying or gloating, because she cums. Hard.

You do, however, earn the gratification of laying your tongue flat on her cunt when her body locks, before violently crashing. Torrential waves of slick gush all over your needy, thirsty tongue. You lap it up-every last drop, even as it spills onto the carpet floor, drenching your face and the area around her crotch. Her moans come out in waning hoarse bursts, trying to keep your little secret as hidden as possible. In reality, it was obvious to anyone with a functioning ear and a respectable distance away. The locked door was a nonfactor.

Despite your reluctance, you slowly pull away from her heavenly core, licking your messy lips clean, saving the remains with your fingers.

Still, the desire remains. You're leaving soft kisses down her thighs, watching Tzuyu depleted of strength as the fallout from her orgasm persists. Unable to find the strength to regain her composure, her eyes remain glued shut, her jaw slack, her breaths heavy. Her arms find solace in each other, folded and held close to her stomach, as if in utter pain, when it's really just your tongue. "Oh God-"

"How does it feel, Tzu?" you say before kissing her smooth skin.

She struggles to breathe, let alone utter a single word. By the way her lips curl into a satisfied smile, you can conclude that she enjoyed every moment. Rolling over to her side, even in this flushed, broken state, her profile looks so beautiful. To think she wakes up like this every single day.

Suddenly, you hear a loud knock on the door, followed by a prompt call. "Miss Tzuyu-your parents are looking for you."

The blunt voice instantly springs Tzuyu back to life, immediately ignoring the crash from her climax. "Shit," she sharply mutters, looking over to the bed where she thinks her panties lie, but are actually in the pocket of your suit jacket. "Do you think they-"

You fire back a mischievous glare, complete with matching playful face.

This was her idea after all; you were just following along.

-----

Waiting by the same vehicle you arrived in, you're about to be driven back to her penthouse. The sun setting has begun setting down, and you both have a few days in Taiwan before flying back home. Tzuyu's with her parents at the front door, giving them one last hug and kiss goodbye.

It's only a brief exchange. She quickly rejoins you with a quick peck on the cheek. Looking past her are the waves of her family wishing you safe travels.

"What did they say? Where's the driver?" You ask Tzuyu, curious about the lack of a butler.

Smirking, she jingles a pair of keys in her hand like it's her personalized bell. "We're not taking this car back."

"Then what is our car then?"

She presses a button, and your attention is immediately diverted by the roar of a powerful engine. A familiar two-door coupe pulls up directly in front of the entrance.

You face Tzuyu, then to her dad, who simply motions his hand out to the car. She hands over the keys before walking ahead, swinging open one of the butterfly doors. "It's already rush hour, so unless you wanna be late for our dinner date-"

You immediately rush past her and into the driver's seat, revving up the engine. "Okay. Get in."

-----

As the Chou property quickly disappears from the rearview mirror, you glance at Tzuyu, realizing something seems off.

There's no emotional goodbye, no formality-just a brief exchange and then you're sent off, just like that.

"There's no dinner date right?" you ask her, your attention primarily focused on the winding, curving road ahead. Even with your brief experience behind the wheel of a fast car, this older one in particular requires more skill and direct input. "Surely you didn't book one on the same day as-"

Tzuyu doesn't respond, only leaning back on the passenger seat. A cursory glance reveals the curl of her lips as she seemingly falls asleep.

"You're quite naughty, you know that?" you comment, nudging her elbow, eliciting a laugh out of her. "What happened to the so-called 'princess' of the Chou family?"

"You know why I even bothered to come home, right?" she replies, opening her eyes and staring directly into you. "I don't miss it that much."

You can only chuckle in response.

"And yes-we don't have a dinner date if you're wondering," she adds, her cheeky grin shifting into a coy, taunting smirk. "Really smart of you to realize that I wanted to leave before we are forced to stay overnight, or even worse."

"I've spent better days in worse."

She lowers her eyebrows. "Seriously-" she says, before immediately hesitating, thinking of another way to prove her point, when suddenly, "You should be thankful they didn't notice the panties in your pocket."

"And you should be thankful they didn't notice the screams coming from the bedroom," you retort.

"I was trying to hold back, dipshit."

"That was you holding back?" You laugh hard at her half-hearted attempt of an excuse, seeing as you have a front row seat at how she crumbled. "Then what about when I fucking ate you out and you were cumming all over me? What was that?"

"You're no better; what about those mumbles I hear at night, huh?" she says, tone hostile, altering her voice to mock yours as she continues, "Why do I sometimes hear my name in your room, huh? 'Fuck-Tzuyu-you're so tight Tzuyu-I'm gonna cum Tzuyu-' Huh? What was that? You degenerate."

"It's none of your business, Tzuyu."

"Maybe dad was right-I should have just had my own apartment!"

The car accelerates, its roar the loudest thing for miles. You're blitzing through the freeway, speed cameras and fines be damned. Had conversation happened minutes earlier, when you were climbing down the mountains, neither of you would be talking right now.

"You don't believe that."

"You're right-I don't!" Tzuyu shouts before looking away. She doesn't care anymore.

You stop twisting the knife, refocusing your priority on not intentionally driving the car into a lamppost this late into your journey.

So when you finally arrive at her apartment complex, neither of you hop out immediately. There's a valet waiting in the wings to take over, but you're not letting the world move on until you come to some form of compromise.

"Fine. I'm sorry Tzu. I just thought you didn't like your parents that much-"

"I don't," she interjects, facing you again, her features cold and stern. Again, much like her father. "I'm just glad we got all that behind us without any issues."

"And what about the whole 'you heard me jerking off to you' thing?"

"Still gross. If you weren't helping me in my studies, I wouldn't have asked for your help had I known sooner. Pervert."

"Ouch."

It's more of a mock than a devastating admission to your character.

"Too late for that, though, sadly," she says, sighing, both half-joking and half-serious. "Look, let's just get this over with and pretend after that this never happened."

"Seriously?"

"Yes! I'm so tired, I just wanna lie down and forget about all this."

Neither of you realize you can be heard by the waiting valet driver. He doesn't seem to mind, though.

"Are we really just gonna gloss over this issue-"

"It's a non-issue. We didn't get caught, you're just being a dude. I know. I've been with worse guys. Now let's go."

-----

Despite her request, it's not as easy as it sounds. The touching, the kissing, the passion-it's as real as real gets.

The same can be said about Tzuyu; behind the callousness and seeming apathy is a pent-up need and genuine desire.

You both emerge from the elevator already on each other's bodies, wrestling for control, your suit jacket already on the metal floor. Her nails leave sharp, scathing marks on your skin, measuring you up. She's loosening up the buttons on your shirt as you pin her against a wall, then lead her into one of the five bedrooms. As much as you want to break loose, she has you bound by the neck, making sure your lips never leave hers.

"So this is why you don't want to hurt me," you mutter, breath hot against hers, pressing a finger on your freshly clawed neck.

"Sorry," Is all that she can say, and in your eyes, that's more than enough.

"First kiss, first sex, and first argument all in one day. We're really moving fast as a couple, huh?"

Tzuyu giggles. "I guess we're a match made in heaven after all."

Soon you're back to making out, fueled by the need for each other's lips. Despite your bodies crashing onto the bed, you're still madly kissing each other. Running down the last of your buttons, she pops your shirt open in half, which you slip off. Pulling her back to your level, you kiss down her chin and suck on her neck, releasing a soft, airy whine from her delicate lips. She tilts her head up, opening more of her porcelain skin for the taking.

Every part of Tzuyu tastes perfect.

Meanwhile, your hands take lease of her back, roaming the exposed parts of her dress. Dabbling with the fabric, you finally pull on the zipper, the garment loosening, freeing, the feeling liberating. For the most part, Tzuyu has always been conservative, even in her most formal outfits. A slit in her dress for a leg at best. Beneath lies some white lace and matching panties, her crop top revealing more tummy than you've ever anticipated.

You're getting more than what you've bargained for, and her figure is so mouthwatering.

With the top half of her dress bundled on her waist, you throw her back down on the mattress, biting on her collarbones. She's panting, breaths frantic, her hands wrapped around your back, her muscles jolting with every little kiss. Raising a leg close to your hip, she's softly muttering sweet nothings, whispering, eventually revealing what's really on her mind. 'I want you'- she mumbles, her dainty tone making your pulse race, tilting her head to the side to let you conquer more of her lithe body, which you happily do.

It's been a long day. You could honestly stay in this position forever-your limbs twisting and tangling in a messy harmony, your bodies pressed together, finding solace and comfort in each other's warmth.

Tzuyu squirms beneath, lightly pushing you away. Taking the hint, you relent. Lo and behold, half her neck and collarbones are swollen red, your handiwork. While she gathers much needed air for her lungs, you use this brief moment of respite to slip the remainder of her dress down her slender legs before tossing the garment aside to be forgotten. Your trousers end up joining them on the floor shortly after.

Even in this vulnerable state, Tzuyu looks so breathtakingly beautiful. Her perfect side is always on display, no matter what angle.

"Tell me what you want baby," you whisper on her skin, leaving soft, more delicate kisses on them. Knowing how fragile she is, you're making sure you don't flatten her whenever you go down on her.

"I just want you," she whines, her eyes slammed shut and body writhing, even without any contact. She's already trembling at the mere thought of you.

"Be more specific, Tzu," you command her gently. Sliding down your boxers, your aching cock can finally breathe from its constraints. You press a finger on her panties, and even through them, you can tell she's soaked. Still, as much as you want to undo them, you want her to do the honors. "Tell me exactly what you want."

"I want your cock," she replies, tossing and turning left and right. So wanton, so desperate. She slides down her panties for access, prompting you to hover above her. "Give it to me. I've wanted you to fuck me me for so long."

"How long?" You toy with her, positioning your cock directly between her entrance, the tip lining against her dripping slit.

"Since earlier," she whines, feeling the tease, the slow burn, the knife being twisted in her gut. She can't do anything about it. "Please-just put it in, already."

The smirk on your lips can't grow any wider. "I don't believe you. How long have you really wanted this?"

Tzuyu moans, moans, and moans, much to your delight. Despite her efforts to suppress herself, she inevitably folds. "I don't care-just fuck me already, will you? I've touched myself listening to you. Is that what you wanna hear? I don't care anymore-just-stick that thing inside me already!"

You didn't think she would spill the beans this easily. Her wantonness and impatience-it speaks volumes. It's arousing, makes your ears perk in excitement. A win is a win, after all.

Grabbing her waist, you slide your cock into her entrance-painstakingly slow, slowly setting yourself on fire. Even the slightest flex and push against your shaft could break you in half. Holding your breath, every moment growing more tense as she envelops you in her suffocating warmth. It doesn't help that her legs clench around your hips, binding you with her for good.

There's only one way this could end.

"Oh fuck-" you groan, slamming your eyes shut as your cock buries deep in her sopping cunt. An echoed cry rips through the vast room, a fine blend between your voices. She feels so good, so tight, so invitingly hot. Finding some semblance of control proves to be a challenge as her pussy convulses around your cock. The look in her eyes when they flutter open, her jaw slack, her brows shifting, the moan escaping her lips-it's better than anything your imagination can project.

You draw your hips back, against the constricting hold Tzuyu has on you-both physically and mentally. Her hands are all over you-gripped on your nape, on your skull, roaming your back. She's holding on you so tight; she needs you more than oxygen right now.

Slowly but surely, you push back in, pumping her cunt in deliberate, purpose filled strokes. She moans, reduced to merely a string of profanity-laced bursts. Pressing your temple against hers, you admire how undeniably pretty she looks, even when you have her pinned like this. It goes without saying that Tzuyu is an absolute beauty, a goddess made human, and how fortunate you are to sully and defile her.

It's the perfect sight for sore eyes, an idyllic escape from the fiery sensation in your stomach.

"So-so gorgeous, Tzu-" you mutter, leaving a chaste peck on the tip of her nose, your moans going back and forth, perfectly paced with your hips rocking against hers. You've never felt this uniform, this perfect together. "So fucking wet-and tight-"

She's far too engrossed in pleasure to move, let alone say a word. You can feel the kick from her thighs, their coil around your waist, demanding more. Faster. Harder. Without the need to vocalize them. As comfortable as you are, your primal instincts are encouraging you, pushing you to take her the way she should be used.

"I'm gonna fuck you hard now," you tell her as courtesy, moving through with the deed regardless of her response. She nods. Whether it's from the persistent quake of the bed or a voluntary act, it doesn't matter. You're only focused on drawing out the most ecstasy in fucking her.

The fuse has already been lit the moment you first entered her; you're just accelerating the countdown.

"Yes-fucking-oh my fucking-" you groan, the piston of your hips moving quicker and quicker with each thrust. The way her pussy quivers and flexes around your cock is so devastating, it's burning through your skin. Your mind is in utter disarray, unable to fully comprehend the tightness consuming you. It's going to pull you further and further down without a way to escape. You can only drag Tzuyu down too.

You're crushing her, smothering her in your desperate attempt to stay in control. She's doing everything in her power to shatter you, and it's messing you up. She continues to moan in broken, jumbled tones, pulling you close to her with each pump, meeting halfway in a rhythm that hits the spot.

"Just like that-just like that-mm-" Tzuyu keens. How she can make even the littlest words sound so saccharine and sincere is beyond you. The way she takes your relentless pounding is a feat worth admiring. It's the least of your concerns right now, especially when she continues to lead you further to your collapse. "Almost there-just keep fucking me."

As if you had any other thought or option. That, or pulling down the strap of her skimpy crop top, exposing a breast, watching it ripple.

Her hair tangled around your waist, you keep fucking away. Stopping is the last thing you'd ever want to do, especially since you're close too. The friction between your skin and hers is growing too unbearable, and yet the satisfying ripple of flesh slapping flesh supersedes that. There's nothing sinful in what you're doing, only something right.

"Please baby-never stop-stretching me out like this-" she mewls, her nails digging deep into your back, tilting your face and leading you into a passionate kiss. "Cumming for you-oh shit-"

Tzuyu clenches, kissing into you harder as her body comes undone from head to toe. Every nerve, every muscle going limp as she cums. She moans directly into your skin, freezing, her legs and arms coiled around your body as a wave of her slick spills all around your hard cock, landing on the sheets.

It's the perfect time to get dragged by her wave of pleasure. You weren't going to last any longer at this rate. "Tzu-" is the only thing that you manage to utter, before it completely falls apart.

Against the last of your resolve, your grip gradually loosens. Straining your hips, you thrust forward a handful of times, each one more and more agonizing till you finally reach the boiling point. Your cock throbs violently as you pump deep in her pussy, even as her legs collapse on the bed, because anything else would be a disservice to her unspoken demand. You're groaning raspily against her ear, holding onto her even though she can't move.

You fill her. Releasing every pent-up need and tension, your bodies go numb together. Her cunt squeezes every last drop of cum out of you. Tzuyu won't settle for less. You're repeating her name as your orgasm persists, the agony of blasting streak after streak seemingly unending. Your hips continue to fuck the cum deep into her pussy, gradually slowling by the second until you come to a full stop.

In the end, the only thing that remains are your labored breaths.

You clamp down on her collarbone before your consciousness eventually drifts away. This is the position you end up in for the rest of the night: you slumped over Tzuyu, arms wrapped over each other, drenched in sweat and sex.

At least she has the warmest blanket to cover her from the cold.

-----

As morning comes, you've spent more time inside Tzuyu than anywhere else-as it should be.

"You sure you don't wanna go anywhere?" she asks, showing you her phone with a picture of a hot spring, one of many in the country. "We could use it before going back."

"I'm good," you say, looking up at Tzuyu, her lithe figure leisurely bouncing on your lap, eliciting these soft, airy moans out of you between thrusts. You've been mindlessly admiring her perfect body, your hands roaming at her waist, to her chest, then her ass, finally back to her waist again. "Maybe if you want, just go yourself. I just wanna sleep."

"Don't be such a killjoy" she replies, tilting her head down to meet you eye-to-eye. "After what we've done, you just wanna sit back? You're really a pervert, you know that?"

"Still calling me that? After I fucked your brains out?"

"Just because you fucked me so well doesn't change anything before that, pervert."

"Fuck you."

"Fuck you!"

Tzuyu places the phone on the end table before brushing your hair. She has this contemptuous look, her frustration bubbling to the surface. If she were any less patient, she could probably end you in an instant-

Except you both laugh, breaking the so-called tense silence.

"Yeah, I guess I'm also tired too," she remarks, finding purchase of your face, then your chest. She stops grinding on you to lay on your head instead. "We could spend the whole day here, just ordering delivery. I wouldn't mind."

As entertaining of an idea as it sounds, the initial proposition gradually sinks in. You imagine the scene: a hot spring. Being one with nature. Some much needed relief for your muscles. More importantly, another excuse to see Tzuyu naked, even though she's in nothing but a short robe right now.

Better yet, there's a shower you can take her in, but she's worn you out to the point of hardly moving.

"Tzu?" you mumble, caressing her covered back, cuddling her.

"Yeah?"

"I changed my mind. Let's go to the hot springs."

Even without looking, you can feel her annoyance. You can already envision the scorn on her features. She realizes she has made a huge mistake.

This is only the beginning of a beautiful relationship.

"You're the worst boyfriend."

"Worst? I thought we were just pretending."

"I hate you."

"I love you too."

DIPLOPIA (ITZY CHAERYEONG)

You don't recognize these roads anymore.

Uncertainty continues to cloud your mind as you closely follow the car in front. Most days, it's the typical van housing the stars-down to the model, the wheels, the black paint job. In your time following them, the vehicle never changed, to the point where you have the plate number on speed dial.

Tonight is different. Instead of the usual activities, be it a fansign, festival or radio program, you're following her home.

-----

The moment you step forward to have your album signed, the four girls' eyes immediately light up.

It isn't the usual fan excitement idols have to put on in public. Instead, an excited energy coming from a place of recognizing something familiar-someone that they're close with.

Except you're neither family nor friend. By all accounts, you're just another fan completely indistinguishable from the rest.

Even as they're preoccupied with catering to the others' requests, they're exchanging glances, whispers among one another.

You take a seat in front of Yeji, the first in line, curious.

"What's going on? Am I missing something?"

She brushes it off nonchalantly, only casually smiling, a professional in masking her facade. "Not much. Just happy to see you," she says, before adding her signature on the page and sending you off.

Same question, same result when it comes to Lia. You could have sworn they were all eyeing you intently moments ago.

Even the charismatic Yuna is playing coy with you.

To be fair on their end, this is the fourth time this promotional cycle that you're doing this song and dance. And there's some within that crowd who are basically seeing them every other day. You're not the most egregious fan in that audience.

"What's going on? Am I missing something?" you ask Ryujin, confused by her humorous expression, a stark contrast. The others didn't budge in the slightest when you tried questioning them, only telling you the same thing: that your presence makes them happy.

Fortunately, Ryujin is in the business of self-sabotage today.

"Ask Chaery-ow!" is her reply before getting cut off by a swift elbow to the rib from her seatmate, Yuna. She starts laughing along too.

"Christ-will you shut up? You're gonna ruin the surprise! Wait-ah shit."

Yuna realizes the mistake she's made, and she can only grin and blush in embarrassment, falling face down on the table. To the untrained eye, it's an amusing scene. None of the audience, not even the ones beside you understand what the commotion is about other than typical member to member playfulness and tomfoolery.

Finally, you come face to face with Chaeryeong, unbothered relative to the others. Her eyes light up upon recognizing you once again.

"Ryu can't help herself, huh," Chaeryeong remarks teasingly, her brows crinkling in playful annoyance at her senior as you slide forward the album. Shifting her quiet, unassuming frown into a subtle grin, she adds her respective signature, slipping a thin sticky note beneath the signed page. "Secret's out. Check it once the fansign's done. I'll be waiting."

Curiosity immediately gets the better of you as you try flipping the page, only to be stopped by Chaeryeong's slap of your hand.

Well aware of the cameras and her audience, she maintains character while whispering a warning to you, a secret only shared between two close acquaintances: "After the fansign, dum dum. Don't make me regret this. The managers don't know."

"Can you at least give me a hint?" you ask, your nosiness growing bigger by the second.

She leans forward, her eyes glinting with anticipation. Noticing the camera hanging from your neck, she points her finger forward, saying, "Make sure you hold on to that camera for me, will you?"

The managers and staff lead you back into the audience. Her eyes don't linger as you're dragged away, focusing on the next fan in line, acting like this conversation never happened.

-----

For the most part, the rest of the fansign proceeds as usual, with you taking your usual pictures of the members-especially Chaeryeong. Most of your gallery is dedicated to her. Apart from a few fleeting moments of shared eye contact with your camera, she pays no attention to you, posing primarily for everyone else.

Finally, the members bid farewell and leave to the back. As you and the other fans are guided out of the auditorium, you open the newly signed album, peeling the sticky note wedged on the photobook.Two important instructions are written in cursive, strictly meant to be read by you and only you alone:

> Look out for a gray four door once the vans drive by. Follow me

> DON'T TELL ANYONE OR BRING ANYONE ELSE

Heading outside, you and the crowd watch several black vans driving off, presumably containing the members. Being that it's already nightfall and with the cars having heavily tinted windows, no one can call their attention aimlessly trying to wave them goodbye.

For a good minute or two, you thought you were being played. As the crowd disperses, another vehicle stops at the red light, perfectly fitting the description given on the note. It passes by completely unnoticed and undetected-except by you.

You anticipate the car to drive away too, and it does-until it pulls over to the side in the distance, far enough to be overlooked by everyone else.

And then you remember something else from that note, a third instruction:

> P.S. Only five minutes or else I'm leaving without you

Thankfully, you've parked your own car right in front of the theater, a walk across the street away. Getting out proves to take longer as several other vehicles are trying to leave at the same time as you. You've never been more tempted to blast that horn; this is more stressful than the usual late afternoon traffic jam. There's a greater sense of urgency. Higher, more personal stakes. Every second wasted waiting in line is another second separating you from Chaeryeong.

Even after escaping the parking area, there's the red lights. One after another, you're forced to stop, slowing your already short sprints. More time being wasted. To make matters worse, the road you're taking is glaringly quiet. You're cursing these signs, cursing the government for stalling for time, as if their primary design and purpose is to fuck you up.

You end up running past these lights, unable to take another second longer. No one's stopping you, nor is there anyone in the vicinity who can. There are cameras catching you breaking the law, but you don't care anymore.

Mercifully, the car is still there, sitting idle with the lights on. Pulling up beside the vehicle, you flash your blinkers, roll the windows down, hoping she recognizes you. You earn no reaction, instead the car merely drives off, leaving you to follow close behind.

The next hour and a half has been spent driving and driving. Passing through avenues then motorways, you're leaving the city far behind in your rearview mirror, until you're the only pair of cars traveling along a quiet suburban neighborhood. Considering they're wrapping their latest promotional cycle today, logic would dictate that the group stay together a little more before dispersing, but you didn't expect them to branch off right away.

No wonder the members were already sharing vacation plans and destinations earlier.

Cruising past one street after another, every townhouse looks the same, down to the layout, dimensions, everything. Based on all the utterly dark interiors, it's safe to say barely anyone lives here.

Even some of the apartments you've been in look nicer compared to how barren and lifeless this neighborhood is.

It's not the first thing that comes to mind when you think of celebrity homes.

Eventually, the car ahead pulls into a driveway of a distinctly nicer villa, one that has moderately rich written all over it. Anyone can tell that a celebrity, or at the very least, some wealthy person retreats here, but perhaps that's the point: you're in the heart of the suburbs, free from the fast-paced chaos of city living.

From the driver's seat, someone emerges. You can recognize that familiar sharp glare. It's none other than Chaeryeong herself.

She's staring in your direction, at your car. Though you've been following her tail closely throughout the lengthy drive, you pulled back once she pulled into the driveway, leaving quite a considerable amount of space to maintain privacy. Then, she walks in. Lights open throughout her house, the only home brightly illuminated on this street.

Figuring that it's an invitation, you pull up directly in front of her house.

Rolling your window down, you take the camera resting on the passenger seat. Shaky fingers right on the trigger, her house in center view, you end up not taking a single picture. Not for lack of storage, but rather an unwillingness to have something personal in your collection. The girl who shows out in the public eye is one thing, but addresses and private homes are entirely separate matters.

You feel it's best to keep those two aspects apart.

You end up putting the camera away, curious about its purpose, about what she really meant about the need for it.

Staring up at her villa, you finally spot her again. Chaeryeong's standing near the balcony, curtains open, giving you a clear view of her figure from the side, as well as her profile. Even from a distance, you recognize all the details about her. So incredibly pretty. She doesn't seem to notice your presence outside nor does she bother to care.

Still in her fansign wear, her last performance outfit, consisting only of jeans, a skimpy top, and a thick jacket. Going against your oath, you try reaching for the camera again, but you suddenly stop.

To your surprise, she slips the jacket off, revealing her bare shoulders.

Your eyes widen, then your jaw slowly drops. She fiddles with her jeans before walking out of sight, much to your dismay.

Now you realize the purpose. What a wasted opportunity. And yet, you've already taken dozens of mental pictures off that little show alone. This is meant to be for your eyes only.

Looking on, Chaeryeong reemerges into view, this time strutting around the living room. She's hardly wearing clothes, only covered by skimpy black lace, matching colored suspenders holding up thigh high stockings. The windows are just as open, curtains similarly drawn back, granting you full access to her unbelievably tight, slender body.

She puts down a platter of snacks on the coffee table before taking one from the pile, holding it up for display.

Your mouth is watering, craving not the delicacy in her hand-but for her.

The first snack she gives a slow, deliberate lick. A popsicle. Her tongue slowly glides up the frozen morsel, stimulating your mind, leaving nothing to the imagination. She repeats the motion a few more times before taking it into her mouth with an intentional hollowing of her cheeks, eventually sucking and munching down on the treat. All while flaunting her toned figure as if it were a photoshoot, which is probably what the camera was meant for. Your hands are nowhere close, instead pulling on the zipper of your pants, moving of their own accord.

Even though she doesn't seem to pay attention to you, she clearly knows what she's doing.

Next, she takes the second snack, one with a much more obvious connotation: a banana. She playfully wonders what to do, slapping it across her cheek before peeling the cover and eating from the exposed tip. She positions the fruit in a way that it's tilted up, mirroring the growing tent in your pants. Her fingers coil around the sides, her eyes fluttering close as she slowly indulges on the snack, slowly driving the length into her mouth till it's completely consumed.

It may have only been a minute, maybe less, but you can imagine how the sensation would linger. Maybe hours.

Finally she grabs the last snack: a hotdog. She lays back on the couch, crossing her leg as she casually nibbles away, foregoing her natural seductiveness for a quick bite before wiping all the crumbs off her finger before getting up and leaving.

Meanwhile, you've spent the whole time just watching her in awe, utterly speechless.You don't regret not taking a single photo, knowing this little private scene is permanently seared into your memories.

You can never look at Chaeryeong the same way ever again.

Moments later, the front door swings wide open, with Chaeryeong standing there in all her glory. She stares you down, her gaze sharp and hypnotic, before walking away without uttering a word.

You fell under her spell a long time ago. Now you're following her like a moth to a flame.

Without care for guest etiquette, you enter the house, losing sight of Chaeryeong as you continue to struggle with your trousers. Looking left and right, you try to find her to no avail, when suddenly you're dragged into one of the rooms, feeling a tugging, inescapable tug on your arms.

"Did you enjoy my little show?" she whispers, tone sultry, a leg naturally wrapping around yours. She's breathing on your neck, softly nibbling your skin.

Cornering you, you fall backwards and onto the couch.

It's a different couch, different room, with the curtains covered, hidden away from the outside world.

You merely glance up, still utterly speechless. Her sexy glow is on full display, feeling herself like she always has, perhaps even more so in private than in front of the flashing cameras. Based on her subdued reaction, this isn't the first time she's seen this exact reaction.

"Where's your camera?" Chaeryeong quickly changes conversation right as you're about to hit your tipping point, her hands gripped to your knees, leaning forward and closing the gap between you two, her sharp glare freezing you in place. "Don't think I didn't notice you holding it just now. What did I tell you earlier?"

"Shit, I-I didn't think this would happen," you sputter, swallowing your throat. Even blinking proves to be impossible under her suffocating control.

Chaeryeong narrows her eyes. Stares right into your soul. Her usually soft, little smile on her lips disappears in real time. You can feel her nails dig sharply through the fabric of your trousers, scratching you. Deathly silence permeates longer than you can imagine. It's a terrifying position to be in.

She bites on her lower lip, thinking of what to do.

Then, the idea hits her like lightning.

"I'm normally a lot more ruthless towards people like you. I mean, simple instructions. Hold onto that camera. Easy! A kid could do it without a second thought. Why can't you?"

If you could open your mouth right now, you would justify that it was under extraordinary circumstances-such as this one-but you recognize the wrong answer could send you to an early demise.

"I would ask you to leave and tell you to forget this ever happened. But since I'm in a good mood today, I will let it slide tonight."

You still can't breathe a sigh of relief; her ironclad grip has spread to your crotch.

As soon as your lips quirk ever so slightly, her nails burrow deeper into your skin, almost forcing you out from your seat and yielding out a cry of pain that could have been ear shattering, if not for your self-restraint. "However-I can't let you go completely unpunished. You must face the consequences for disobeying me. Got it?"

"Got it," you spit, frantically nodding along, begging through your eyes for her to loosen the grip as the pain becomes unbearable. She acquiesces, drawing her hands back.

Now you can actually breathe.

But the freedom lasts for merely a moment. Chaeryeong struts around the room, putting on music through some speakers, her hips swaying in a natural yet hypnotic rhythm. From behind, you get a close-up view of her plump ass peeking through an incredibly thin thong. She then returns to you, shoves you back against the couch before squatting down on your lap in an abrupt manner, leaving you gasping for air.

"Just because I let you watch doesn't mean you have to be a sitting duck," she says, grinding her hips slowly against your helpless erection, aching and throbbing beneath your pants. Sultry as it sounds, it's a serious matter, one with so much on the line. "You didn't seem all that lazy when you were taking pictures of me earlier. What happened? Do I look too sexy for you now?"

Chaeryeong lifts herself off you again, her waist and flat tummy presenting themselves in your face. You try to grab, but she quickly sideswipes you, teasing and playful. She spins around, her plump cheeks raised up in your direction-and then she smothers you on the couch.

Pulling back, she looks over her shoulder, completely by surprise, gyrating her hips, giving you exactly what you want. "Well? Are you just gonna sit there or what?"

Truthfully, yeah. You can sit back and admire her in this position all night long.

As you try to dive headfirst into her plump cheeks, she lunges forward, leaving you sucking on air. She then grabs you by the chin, tilting your face up. There's a contemptuous, disgusted air on her face, judging your patheticness. The contrast between you couldn't be any more clear. She's so well refined, even in her most risque appearance. Meanwhile, you look hungry, down horrendous, foaming at the mouth-literally.

"Maybe I really should take a girl home one of these days," she mutters to herself, thinking of other ways to drag you down. "But since you're tired, I'll spare you the extra effort, sleepy head."

Chaeryeong shoves you down on the couch, lifting your legs off the ground and onto the sofa's arm. The control she has on you cannot be any more overstated. Crouching on her fours, arching her back, she hovers atop you with a coy smile. Sexiness looks natural on her, but behind that fatal sultry attitude, her idol sensibility rears its familiar head, perfectly balancing the line between entertaining an imaginary audience and one person.

It's a lovely, surprisingly sweet view before the lights completely go out.

Climbing over your defenseless body, her thighs close in between your face. Slamming down without care, pressure builds-and builds-until you're kicking and squirming. She hears your muffled cries, your helpless groans, and mocks back, not letting up.

"What's that? Can't hear you over the sound of your tongue shoved up my pussy."

At first, everything proves to be a struggle. You have no control over your movement, hands included. She's forcing you to bear the weight of the world: countless hours of practice, interviews, and fanservice, including now. If she wanted, she could crush you with her thighs alone, and she wishes she could; she's not going to outright tell you. Mercifully, upon closer inspection, she's wearing the thinnest line of panties imaginable, it barely qualifies as underwear.

With the meager space you're graciously provided, you slip your tongue between the narrow line between fabric and skin-and Chaeryeong keens.

Even her little cries are as pretty as her too.

The edges of her nails dig into the fabric of the couch, barely scraping your arms. She hisses sharply as you gradually acclimate to the tension she's forcing on you, burying your tongue into her aching core. Her nectar tastes incredible, like water in the desert. You'd tell her that if you weren't so preoccupied taking all this glistening sheen generously into your hungry, greedy mouth. The way her body trembles, quivers with every little touch, every swipe at her throbbing cunt, setting off one fire after another, it's enough to drag her down with you.

"Oh-fucking shit-fuck-"

Her thighs hunker down, reinforcing the already airtight lock you're imprisoned in between her legs. She's one wrong move away from snapping your neck by sheer force alone if you weren't dying from asphyxiation already. It proves to be nothing but a mild inconvenience. You're hungrily eating out her intoxicating cunt, drinking away at her alarming flow of juices, maintaining a pace that feels just right.

Desperately trying to find some semblance of stability, she rolls her hips, but that only worsens her state-and better for you.

Gripped to the sofa's headrest and on the cushions, the friction makes it easier to make a grander mess of her. You match her frantic pace, lapping away at her folds without a care, a retaliation of sorts. Her cunt is an addicting vice you can't get enough of, regardless of her juices spilling relentlessly past your mouth.

Overwhelmed by the pleasurable sensation coursing throughout her lithe body, Chaeryeong twists and contorts into a stretched out figure of limbs and cries. Furniture is easily replaceable. The position you're in happens once in a lifetime. This idol, whom you've dedicated your personality and entire life around, meeting her dozens of times and taken countless photos of for the world to see, is now reduced into a helpless, melting pile of flesh and moans, keening in ecstasy, her echoes bouncing endlessly in the comfort of her personal home, and it's all thanks to you.

Very few can say they've made Lee Chaeryeong cum.

"Fuck!"

A single word is all she manages, and it's perfect.

Letting out this thunderous cry, her body goes rigid and tense, as if something has snapped within her. Right then and there, a fresh wave of arousal gushes over your face, falling all at once.

The throbbing never ends. You lap it all up. Every last drop.

Despite the endless amount of slick you've consumed and time drinking from her well, it's not enough. You're left wanting more.

"Jesus-" she mutters, heaving between deep breaths, slowly peeling herself off you then collapsing to the floor. "I didn't think you'd be this good."

Despite her orgasm ripping through her body to shreds, Chaeryeong is the first to recover. She surveys the damage. Slick all over your pressurized face, so much more on the couch, your tongue actively licking up whatever mess it can clean, which doesn't go far.

There's no shame on your lips when she looks at you. Contentment is etched on your lips. You could die happily right then and there.

Her cheeks are completely flush, taken completely aback by your effort. Her panties are in tatters, utterly soaked, more valuable being thrown away than as actual clothing. "Maybe you're not as bad as I thought."

Satisfied as you are, her gentle, sincere compliment makes your heart race faster than the pressure being crushed beneath her ass.

But the sweetness lasts only for a moment. She can't settle down. There's so much you have left to give-and she's going to force everything out till you're an empty husk. You're only getting started.

"Get up," she says, less of a command and more a call to action, lifting you off the sticky couch with her resounding strength, leaving you behind to stand on your two wobbly feet. "Now strip."

Her words seemingly fly through deaf ears. You stare aimlessly back, stuck in a neverending daze, unable to come to your senses. Chaeryeong is not having any of that, glaring you down with piercing daggers. The night is fleeting; time is of the essence.

She pulls you by the hand and drags you to the bar counter across the room, facing you to remove your shirt in a few swift motions. The pants come off faster, already unbuttoned and unzipped, leaving only your boxers.

"Fucking slow fuck," she spits, nearly ripping your undergarment while pulling down, giving your now freed cock a punishing, ironclad squeeze, forcing an agonizing groan from your lips. "Just because you did one thing right, you think you can have it your way now? Pathetic."

Chaeryeong drops to her knees, pressing her tongue against the tip of your throbbing cock. The brief, feathery contact is enough to send mind numbing chills down your spine. It's no surprise that when she takes you into her mouth, you almost crumble immediately. The feeling is too overwhelming, you don't even get a glimpse of the filthy sight.

It shouldn't be this dangerous.

The pull on her long, raven hair happens impulsively, as if you had some control-which you desperately need.

A flick of her tongue here, a swirl there-Chaeryeong is a meticulous worker, slowly picking you apart in calculated, intricately designed moves. Every little thing she does is performed like there's so much weight behind them, no different from dancing and singing on stage. It's all in the little details: the tilt of her head, the satisfactory hum from her lips, the cold, unforgiving glare she gives when she's sucking you dry, seeking your approval, refusing any answer other than 'fuck yes.'

If you could function as normal, you would reason to her that you're relishing the moment, savoring every second-but she seems to have your mind read like a book.

"Thank your lucky stars you seem to have everything I need." She slides her tongue up your length, kissing the tip again. You've been off the ground ever since with no way back down. "Good ass mouth, big fucking cock-"

She suddenly stops when you tug on her hair again; it's a harsh pull. Momentum grinds to a complete halt. Your heart drops at the realization. You anticipate her to retaliate appropriately, especially when she rises from her knees.

Instead, she mostly relents, but not without gripping your balls tightly, yielding another heavy groan out of you. A warning.

"You wanna pull on this hair? Fine. I'll give you this one then."

Spinning away from you, Chaeryeong unhooks her bra, tossing it aside to be forgotten. Leaning forward, she bends over the counter, back arched, ass up, her swollen lips in clear view. Her favorite position.

She doesn't need to say a word to tell you what to do.

The invitation leaves you more hesitant than excited. You've realized just how frightening Chaeryeong can be. That is why you've been relatively silent and are quietly following along since entering her house.

Looking over her shoulder, knowing she isn't railed at this point, her eyes glare at you with a raging fury, one borne of annoyance, as if you were testing her patience-and you are, to some degree. "Where's that fucking bravado, huh? I'm letting you hit this pussy from behind, and now you don't wanna do it?"

"Well-"

"Zip it. Now you want to talk?" She snaps, facing you again to grab your cock. Pressing your shaft up and down the entrance of her folds, she grits her teeth, gasping and sighing. Staring daggers into your soul, she continues between deep breaths, "Look at this," she says, pertaining to your cock, slick with her saliva, slowly entering her dripping cunt with her guidance. "It's not rocket science. Does this look challenging to you? Never had sex with anyone before?"

You can only shake your head, as much as you want to refute. Her house, her rules.

Chaeryeong slams her eyes shut as your cock impales her to the hilt. She's leaning back on the counter, screaming out loud to prove her point. "See? Not-that-difficult." she whines, her aching cunt stretching against your cock, engulfing you in suffocating heat. Slowly pulling you back like a sword plunged to your abdomen, you watch helplessly as your shaft reappears, lathered in slick and saliva, with time moving at a dangerously slow pace.

She hurls you forward that you're leaning together on the counter, your naked bodies creating irresistible friction. It's not as romantic as the movies or shows make it out to be.

"Stop staring at me like that." Chaeryeong pushes you away before turning around, irate from perceiving you, having to guide you through your first sex session. "Just-fuck me already, dip shit."

Grabbing her by the waist, you take your sweet time to admire her delicately crafted curves and her supple ass, bright red from crushing your face. Still, it only serves to upset her; she can't stop herself from making snarky remarks about you. "Pretending like you want to appreciate me now when you've been jerking to all those photos you've taken of me. As if I don't know-"

She suddenly yelps, her body dragged forward on the counter as you enter her from behind like she wanted it: hard and fast.

"Never thought you'd be such a mouthful Chaery," you comment, hooking an arm around her shoulder, the invigorating warmth of her pussy making you shudder. "And I always saw you as the quiet one."

"Just because-you're fucking me-doesn't mean-" Chaeryeong struggles to get her point across as you get into a steady rhythm, your hips crashing into hers, her ass creating this wet, audible wave as you pound her. "Ah-oh fuck-"

"Doesn't mean what, Chaery?" you hiss against her ear, giving her ass a rightful slap.

She lifts her head, her hands gripped on the table's surface, keening-and moaning.

"I-ah-this feels so fucking big inside me-"

You lean forward, whispering in her ear, before giving her ass cheek a well-deserved slap that ripples through the room. "This is nowhere near my first. Didn't you hear me and Yuna backstage that one time? I should have known something was up the second she was blushing at me."

"One time? Shit-I guess I forgot-o-oh fuck-dammit Yuna-"

"It's on me for not figuring out everything right away," you remark, holding her tight as your personal lifeboat, pushing yourself deep into her, foregoing any sort of foreplay or pleasantry for hard, relentless pounding. "Not the first time I've been inside an idol's house and left with their panties, either."

Chaeryeong is unable to respond, mostly due to your cock rendering her speechless, reducing her to a pliable mess of moans and screams. Her fingers drag across the wooden surface of the counter as you take her body to use at your leisure. You have absolute control, a stark contrast to where you were only mere minutes ago, and you're going to reinforce your authority.

To think you were scared of her. The real Chaeryeong is right in front of you. Ass up, face down, bent over, screaming all sorts of profanities and lewdities that would have burned at the stake.

You've got her raven locks wrapped around one hand, the other on her ass. It's a difficult balancing act. One minute you're pulling on her hair between thrusts, making her cry out in pain and pleasure, the next you're slapping her ass in retaliation for her attitude, having seen just how easily she folds at the slightest touch, whether it be your mouth or your cock. Either action leaves you so addicted, you have to remind yourself to slow down and focus on the important matter at hand: fucking her.

It shouldn't be said, but here it is: her pussy is so intoxicatingly tight. Even with how copiously wet you are, gliding in and out of her feels like an impossible challenge. To make matters worse, she meets your every thrust with the crash of her hips, sending you further down a dizzying spiral. Chaeryeong loves it-loves the feeling of both dishing out punishment and receiving it. You pull on her hair again, another reminder of who's currently in command, but you both know that's not gonna last long.

Especially when you feel so close-your own undoing happening a lot sooner than you hoped.

Still, she feels so good that it's not any bit worth stopping-not that she'd ever want that, anyway. You're resorting to other measures to keep some semblance of control alive: you're squeezing her chest, feeling her taut nipples,lifting her leg off the ground, biting on her nape-anything to stave your mind off the very thought of cumming, because any sign of weakness is her opportunity to ruin you.

"Are you gonna cum yet?" Chaeryeong asks-innocent in sound, but in your heart, a taunt. A challenge.

You respond by slamming into her cunt like you always have: rough and merciless. She's your toy, after all.

Her echoes remain louder than your grunts and moans. It's a good thing her neighbors are completely nonexistent. The houses around might as well not be there.

So much runway to fuck, to cry out in pleasure.

"Almost," you shamefully admit, against your own wishes-and to her delight. "This fucking pussy-Chaery-oh my God-"

You seize her by throat and face her down on the counter, your thrusts unceasing, unrelenting. You're winding down; the end is in sight. She smells of sweat, sex, and active perfume from earlier, and it's a perfect concoction. Slapping away at her ass, watching it ripple with each hit and thrust, her back arching in new, twisting angles, your cock perfectly sandwiched between her slick folds, you're taking all the mental pictures you can get before this lovely view disappears for good. It really is a damn shame, but here's your silver lining: no camera can truly capture how glorious this scene looks, especially from your eyes.

"Gonna cum," you sputter, pouring on the vicious strikes on Chaeryeong's supple cheeks, desperate to cling on. You can't deny it any longer; your body is in absolute rapture, begging for release.

"That's it. Use my fucking pussy," she snaps, her voice airy and hoarse from all the moaning and screaming. "Fuck all your cum into me. Don't waste a single drop."

You have no intention to, especially with a cunt that's so tight, so hot, it's practically inviting you to unload everything.

And so with a handful of strokes, you finally fold. Burying deep inside her wanton cunt, your cock throbs violently, blasting thick shot after shot of sticky, white cum just as she wanted. Chaeryeong's name burns through your lips like a permanent mark as you climax. The release feels more like a consequence than relief. She's something you can't clean yourself of-and probably never will. A stain that will follow you for the rest of your life.

Still, she welcomes you with open arms. Her pussy milks you worth of every little drop, squeezing and quivering in your wake. You end up letting go of everything: her hair, her waist, your entire load. The only thing willing to stay is your cock impaled deep inside her soaked cunt, but even that thin connection snaps. Even though she's bent over, having taken all the pounding, pulling, and punishing, she's the one that ends up on top.

Pervading silence fills the house, in place of the unrelenting noise. Slumping forward, you lay on top of Chaeryeong, meeting her in the middle: your bodies intertwined, filled and satisfied.

Brushing her hair aside for a better look at her sweaty, flushed profile, you both look into each other's glazed eyes with a warm smile. You prepare to give her a kiss, when suddenly, little footsteps can be heard.

Someone's standing in the hallway.

Her voice echoes throughout the house. "You left the front door open again, sis. You should really close them before going down on your guests."

A woman stops directly in front of your room, her appearance cut close in Chaeryeong's image. The girl beneath you waves at her with an innocent smile. The pornographic position you're in is anything but.

She doesn't look too surprised.

"Fucking me wasn't enough, huh? You just had to fuck my sister too."

Climbing up the stairs, Chaeyeon sighs wistfully, exhausted from her own busy activities. Chaeryeong slips away from underneath, following her sister closely. She can't help but shoot a playful grin at you upon realizing your secret.

"I'll fire up the showers. You can join us if you want."

-----

The shower wasn't meant to provide some form of reprieve. In reality, it's an excuse to keep the fire burning, especially down in your loins.

The faintest contact leaves you weak, nearly crumbling to your knees as you join the two women in the shower, leaving you open for their enjoyment. Even with the hot water pouring over you, you remain frozen in place, trapped beyond saving. The Lee sisters take you in as a guest should be: with all the touching, kissing, and teasing you so desperately crave. Running water fills in background noise as the two siblings drop to their knees, taking one side for themselves, each with a stake in your cock.

You get hard again. Impossible not to be when they seem to have a gauge of what makes you tick. Two girls who have firsthand experience handling your cock in their mouth: one who can effortlessly go through the motions, the other still fresh and eager to find new ways to break you in half. Both tilting up with a pair of lust-filled eyes, eager to get your approval. They don't really need it; you had already given them your soul the moment you walked into their house.

"Fucking hell," you manage to groan out-your eyes and head rolling all the way back as far as they can-as the two sisters take turns filling their hungry mouths with cock deep down their throats. The girls each let out a satisfactory hum of their own, pumping and squeezing you for a share of your load, certain you've still got plenty for two. To think you were insatiable when it came to eating out Chaeryeong's pussy and ass. It was only scratching the surface of how rapacious they can be.

Even with all the space the showers provided, you still feel small before Chaeyeon and Chaeryeong. More importantly, it was clear that, in their eyes, you were mainly an outlet of release and nothing else.

"Was he always like this?" Chaeryeong watches her elder sibling busy pumping your shaft away with her deft fingers, drawing more cum out of you, making up for lost time. Watching you this vulnerable-this whipped-makes you all the more intriguing in her eyes.

"Sure enough, yeah." Chaeyeon laughs. It wasn't that long ago you were held in a position like this: same girl, same scenario, but in a bathroom stall of all places. Now in the comfort of their home, you were clear to let out all that pent-up desire with cries of pleasure. You moan her name like it's a prayer, and both girls chuckle at your wanton cry.

"How long?"

"Since I debuted solo. He's always present in my fansigns. Didn't he tell you?" Chaeyeon gives this cheeky look to her younger sister, an approving nod. "One time he told me he was now following this girl group, and I asked him who it was. Didn't specify anything. I should have known right from the start."

"Wasn't only me he was fucking, I just found out," Chaeryeong remarks, tone degrading. You'd be so red with shame right now, if it already weren't the case. Whether it's because of the steam or their unpredictable touch is up for interpretation. "And no, he's never brought it up. I'm just finding out right now. But if so, he gets around-and he gets around good."

"If there's anyone you should trust, it's me. He thinks he's clever hiding this from you. I can hear that moan of his a mile away." Chaeyeon smiles as she turns off the water, your bodies barely touching soap and shampoo, focused on leaving kisses and scratch marks instead. The soap in your eyes forced them shut to tell what's happening, other than their near-indistinguishable voices and the blurriest of movements. All you know is their presence creeping up when you least expect it. "Come along, dear."

Before you know it, you find yourself shoved onto a flat yet bouncy surface. A bed. It rumbles for a few moments before you feel your body tearing apart. In the midst of this uncertain commotion, their combined laughs and whispers fill the air.

"Open your eyes, baby."

Even when you can hardly tell who's giving the command, you comply. Lo and behold, your arms are stretched and tied on opposite ends of the headboard. Your legs are spread wide, your cock glistening with spit and sheen, hard for the second time. The Lee sisters are kneeling on parallel sides of their own, around the edges, laughing at your precarious, defenseless position.

It's in your instincts to try and break loose. Of course, it fails miserably. Their laugh grows more uncontrollable and hearty.

"Not a chance. We've covered all bases so that even if you escape, you're not making it far." Chaeryeong speaks with a heightened air of arrogance.

You furl your brows. "What? What do you mean-escape?"

"Don't even try to run," says Chaeyeon. "You-you're not going to run?"

As if that was ever part of your plan.

"Why would I ever? I like you both!"

You're speaking the truth, and it might just end up saving your life.

"I don't think he's buying it. You know, maybe he just really wants us." Chaeryeong tries to whisper in her sister's ear, but you can still hear it all.

Chaeyeon nods. "You might be right."

The older sibling crawls up the bed, tracing a path to your neck with her nails, leaving a lengthy trail on your skin. It's as every bit sexy and seductive as the first time, even more when she's completely bare. Chaeryeong mimics her, her arch more eye-popping. The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree when it comes to their bloodline. "Since you want to stay, I propose a little game. Are you with me?"

"Yes," you nod, tense and nervous, sweating starting to pour down your face.

"Let's play a game I'd like to call, 'Guess the Sibling.' I'm gonna place a blindfold and you're gonna have to guess who's bouncing on this cock," Chaeyeon continues, going down your chest and giving your erection a playful slap. A little more force and she could have ended you. Mercifully, it's only one flick. "If you guess right, then you get the rest of the night with us. Use us any way you want. But if you don't-"

"-Then we're gonna have our way with you," Chaeryeong interjects. "And trust me, you wouldn't want us to have our way with you."

"What did I get myself into?" you mutter, wondering if the situation you're in is a consequence of your actions. You're not a bad person, per say; even the two girls would admit this. You're just like any other fan-mostly: enjoying their songs, spending alarming amounts of money into merch and events, buying your way into fansigns, and taking photographs of the idols you love. You're so spoiled, you end up sharing that love with others.

At best, this was stuff of urban legend, of myths, of over the top fantasies. None of this was meant to happen.

Yet here you are, tied up on a bed by your two favorite idols in the world, ready to be used like a toy for their personal use-and pleasure. In the little time you've personally known these two, you didn't expect them to be this obscene and assertive. You won't be able to look at them the same way after this-if you can even get out alive.

Chaeyeon wraps a thick cloth around your eyes, completely blocking your vision. The last thing you see is Chaeryeong kneeling before you, spreading them wide, rubbing her hands up and down your legs.

"I would say good luck, but I'd like to think you're familiar with us that this should be easy for you," Chaeyeon remarks before giving you a quick peck on the cheek. "Look at that. Your friend over here is a little too excited."

You wince at the airy touch. Unsurprisingly, you can't tell what's going on, guided only by familiar sensations, patterns and recognizable sounds. Still, you can't really tell their voices apart. It doesn't help that they both have long flowing dark hair either.

Taking this deep breath, anxious about what's about to happen, they still catch you off-guard. You scream a guttural cry, feeling the weight of the world crash on your hips. "Oh f-fuck!"

Right there, you hear a sharp, ear-piercing whine-a shout that rips through the bedroom. Your cock is bulging through something far tighter than normal. Not even your previous experiences with Chaeyeon ever went this far. "O-oh shit! S-so fucking-tight!"

"You heard her. Deeper, babe."

Your hips move instinctively, as if activated by her voice. Either of them works. They live in your mind rent-free. It's only natural to follow them like your life depends on it, and considering your situation, it's quite literal.

Despite how slick and wet you are, it proves to be a struggle at first. It resists, pushing back as hard as it can, but you don't relent. Feels good enough to be worth saving. An impossible challenge at first, you eventually feel it-your tip sinking deeper into her hole, inch by inch. As it penetrates the girl on top of you, her whine climbs a pitch higher, then higher, until she's outright shrieking.

"Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit-so fucking big, so fucking big-"

She's running her words fast, as if her mouth's aimlessly mashing on a keyboard. The same harsh feeling stretches through her tight, smaller hole, until eventually you bury yourself to the hilt, and she keens.

"Oh my God-o-oh God-fuck!"

She struggles to acclimate to the new presence deep in her ass. She can't stop it, nor can she ever hope to contain it. There's only person who'd want it this bad from behind.

"Feels good, right Chaeryeong?" you guess, gritting through your teeth as the suffocating sensation also overwhelms your senses.

Right then and there, she begins to move. Lifting herself off you, dragging her plump cheeks along with brute force, threatening to tear your cock off too-until she squats down on your hips and creates much needed friction on your end.

There's no denial or direct admission, but you know in your heart of hearts that you've won. The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree when it comes to the Lee siblings. Both dangerously hot sisters with toned bodies worth admiring and worshiping. Such a shame that your hands are bed bound right now, otherwise you'd be all over them. Chaeyeon or Chaeryeong, it doesn't matter-they're equally deserving of every lick, every touch, every thrust out of you.

For now, you will have to settle with her ass.

"Harder-a little more-right there-" she manages to spit between hip thrusts and grinds. You happily oblige, relishing the sensation of her tight hole, vigorously flexing and pulsing against your cock. She moves frantically, as if desperate to shake you off. All the more reasons to be loose and free, so you can feel her slinky waist with your bare hands. Still, she's compliant enough to keep bouncing on your lap, drowning in her own ecstasy to care about comfort, only more pleasure.

"God, this ass feels so fucking amazing-Chaery-" you tell her, a statement so obvious, but worth saying regardless. The slick, satisfying sound of flesh slapping flesh bouncing off the four walls, the shockwaves of her skin rippling on your groin, and her elated, blissful moans more than makes up for the lack of sight. And perhaps if you can cum sooner, you can see the light at the end of the tunnel quicker.

But it's not enough. Chaeryeong can-and will-drain you of all your worth, especially at the frantic pace she's going. Her ass owns your cock with a vice grip; again, she feels incredible, and you're bound to each other, down to your souls.

There's only one way you're getting out.

"Get on top of me, Chaen." You call to her, knowing she's lurking around the room. You can also tell that she's eager to get her share of cock.

Chaeryeong continues to bounce relentlessly, , your pace leisured and measured for maximum longevity. She lingers for a few moments, till you feel that weight on your lap suddenly disappear without cause.

"My turn," says Chaeyeon, landing her tight asshole straight onto your cock. No preamble, no preparation, just crashing out. This time, with a much smoother, more effortless entry compared to her sister's. She lets out this whiny, feathery moan in response to being filled for the first time, with you only mildly groaning in response.

"Aren't you forgetting something?" you remark.

"I don't think so."

"Yes you are."

The room goes silent for a moment-except for the heavy breaths of one collapsed Chaeryeong.

Light immediately pervades your newly freed eyes, having the blindfold taken away. On your right, Chaeryeong slumps on the bed face down ass up, her puckered hole glistening and freshly leaking. A bottle falls off the edge and onto the floor. Elsewhere, Chaeyeon's body rests on your waist, your cock buried deep inside her tighter entrance, clearly demanding your attention.

Except she's completely facing away from you.

"Was she-"

"Yes." Chaeyeon sounds annoyed-devastated even-that you've managed to outsmart her at her own game. "I can't believe you really went after my sister. Was I not enough for you?"

"You are. It always meant to be you two from the start. You're both hot."

She sighs.

"Can you at least-at least-fill my ass up?" Chaeyeon looks over her shoulder, frowning. "Please let me have one over her."

"What do you mean? I've given you everything," you reply, recounting all your previous experiences with her. "Backstage, in your apartment, in your car-hell, even in a goddamn public bathroom stall. What else do you want from me?"

Just as Chaeyeon is about to open her mouth, her sister interrupts. Voice hoarse and cracking, she says, "Just go. You were his first. You deserve it."

"Yeah, you heard her. I don't mind. Besides, I've got the rest of the night to take her as I please, right? Like you said?"

There's not much else to say. You can see the faintest smile on her lips as she looks away.

Likewise, your smile fades when she lifts herself and slams into you, hard. Filling her needy, wanton hole with your cock. Just off this one swift motion alone, you recognize that Chaeyeon is much more desperate.

Using all that pent-up need and desire as fuel to power every ram onto your cock. Her mark lingers on-far longer than Chaeryeong's. It's much more personal. You can feel how badly she wants you-needs you-beyond sexual pretense. The idea of you taken away by the one other person she loves the most-it sets her off, motivates her to prove that she's worth more.

Unlike the playful and fun Chaeryeong, every thrust, every roll, every grind Chaeyeon does is intimate, passionate. Pounding into her tight ass, you can see pleasure course throughout her body, trembling in one violent aftershock after another. She's uttering these little pleas, gentle desires while riding you hard. "More-like that-please-please-don't stop-please-"

Chaeyeon knows you're the one responsible for making her feel this way, make her feel all sorts of emotions. Love, hate, jealousy, anxiety-they're only scratching the surface of just how much you mean to her. She's unraveling, and fast. The only way she can find release is, as you expect, through you. An outlet for all her feelings.

You're quite literally stretching her out, both physically and emotionally.

As you watch your first love fall apart like this, you can't help but feel remorse. Chaeyeon is pretty, and so is her sister. They're the splitting image of each other, and you wouldn't feel like a fool for mixing them apart, despite the repeated statements from them not being twins. It's only because of your strange obsession with the two that you can tell them apart.

That, and your complicated relationship with Chaeyeon, as idol and fan.

Ultimately, she can take it. She's been through a lot, way more than anyone else you know, and she'll get back up again. Including now.

So it stands to reason that she can take your pounding better than anyone else.

Gripping her hands on your knees, she rides you vigorously, dictating the pace, without much care for comfort. The clench is asphyxiating, borderline inescapable, but you're still gliding in and out effortlessly, watching your cock disappear and reappear in her ass. As the flesh ripples and slams down with each thrust, the lewd sight alone is enough to upend you prematurely, if not for your resolve keeping you fastened to the earth.

"God-you're too good, Chaen-" you hiss, closing your eyes in a last-ditch effort to avert your thoughts elsewhere. Anywhere but her ass and the tension suffocating you-but it's not enough. The sloppy, wet sound of your bodies colliding penetrates even the most fortified parts of your ears.

"So fucking good, right?" Chaeyeon tries to straighten her voice in an effort to assert herself, only to find it crack, much like her idol facade. "Say it-I'm better than Chaeryeong. Say it!"

Even though her sister is lying beside you, every word is spoken loud and clear. You're terrified.

"Do I have to repeat myself, baby? Say it!"

You don't really have a choice. She's riding you hard and fast, threatening to pull the plug two different ways, one far more unsatisfying than the other.

"Say it!"

"You're better! Better than Chaery!" you shout, matching her erratic pace, dangerously treading on the line of no return.

It finally sets Chaeyeon off-and ultimately ends her.

Everything rolls into one emphatic word.

"Fuck!"

Her body goes rigid, fingers still gripped to your skin as she unravels on top of you. She's screaming your name up to the sky-or in this case, the ceiling-and she cums. Hard. Freely flowing clear slick gushes around and past your cock, shredding through the last of your already broken defenses, urging you to let go.

Through the madness, you're still relentlessly pumping into her, until you've fallen back into darkness again. It's what she would have wanted.

Impaled to the hilt, you let out the deepest groan from the depths of your stomach as you cum into Chaeyeon's ass. Blast after blast, you shamelessly empty every last drop inside her tight, sensitive hole, partly relieved-but mostly frustrated because your hands aren't gripped to her supple flesh right now, ensuring she receives it all.

Despite her orgasm shredding through her body till now, she lifts herself off you in a single swift motion, much to your agony and despair. Resting on the edge of the bed, she's positively glistening from her ass, dripping and leaking with your cum.

You helplessly watch your cock throb and throb till it withers again.

"God," is the only word Chaeyeon can muster after everything, still unwilling to face you directly. Chaeryeong lazily rolls out of bed to rejoin her, resting her head on her shoulder, their hands intertwining.

Silence fills the room after a tense, lengthy period of sex. None of you are willing to break it.

You can only wonder what's on Chaeyeon's mind.

After a while, the two sisters get up and try to leave the bedroom, presumably to clean up-but not before stopping and realizing the elephant in the room.

They're a far cry from when you first gazed your eyes on them. As you watch Chaeyeon and Chaeryeong free you from their binds, there's this tired expression in their eyes. Not the typical post-coital gaze you're all too familiar with; there's a sense that they're just about done-with everything.

Including you.

Chaeyeon offers you the same invite she gave previously when she first saw you with her sister in the living room. "Join us if you want to clean up. I'll fire up the showers."

-----

You pretty much spend the next hour doing that.

Beneath the running water, your bodies are cuddled up together, hardly cleaning up as intended.

Chaeyeon's softly embracing you from behind, while Chaeryeong's right in front of you, her chest pressed against yours. Both women lazily rest their head on your shoulders, their fingers tracing lines all over your skin. Beneath all the soap and shampoo lie kiss marks, nail scratches, and everything else in between to make you theirs.

They're not asking for much, only for you to stay.

You first give Chaeyeon a kiss on her forehead, then Chaeryeong on her cheek.

Perhaps you'll find a way to make room for both.

You have the rest of the night to figure that out.

Life of the party (Loossemble Yeojin)

You regret getting yourself out on the market so soon.

To be fair, it's been a little over six months since your last breakup, the terms of which remain hazy, even to this day. It isn't exactly a definitive conclusion, one where you can comfortably say you're wishing each other the best, nor is it a destructive mess either.

The unfortunate reality is: it was never gonna last. You both had it wrong from the start. The foundations of your relationship were built primarily around sex-pure, unadulterated, raw-at its most primal form. You had this magnetic effect on each other, your bodies crashing on top of the other endlessly, creating these seemingly boundless explosions until you couldn't take it anymore. It took your body giving out for you to learn an important lesson: that much of a good thing can be turn bad.

So you confess that you need space, the same thing other girls have told you previously. You've certainly learned from each relationship, right down to the textbook words that signify each phase-and this was the decline. Unsurprisingly, she doesn't take it well, and she lashes out in a fit of anger.

You don't see each other again.

That should have been the end of that.

Except, you see her, six months on, hiding in the crowd of a party you have no business attending.

-----

You recognize her right away: so distinctly small compared to everyone else that in any other situation, protecting her would be the first thing on your mind. Kids shouldn't be allowed here, anyway; it's only been five minutes and your senses are pervaded with the sights and smells of alcohol, cigarette smoke, and every negative vice under the sun. Except she isn't a kid; she's about as old as you, balancing her job and personal life like everyone else in this room.

Surely, this has to be some kind of mistake-or an elaborate trap.

"I've been trying to tell you," you face Hyunjin, your self-proclaimed guide to this madness, expression uncertain, tone dour. You look like you've seen a ghost. "I shouldn't be here."

Kim Hyunjin doesn't take no for an answer. She's all about expanding her social circles and connections, others' interests be damned. "Come on. Don't be like that. You'll find that everyone is friendly! Here, let me introduce you."

Without hesitation or care for your concerns, she takes you by the hand and drags you to the first girl she spots with her eyes. "I'd like you to meet Hyeju."

Hyeju stares at you with a cold, apathetic glare. On one hand is a cup, the drink barely consumed. Other than stand awkwardly, you've done nothing, yet you're giving off quite a negative first impression. Jittery nerves, awkward expressions-it's terrible body language that gets people ostracized and bullied on social media.

"Sup," she says, casually, extending out her free arm to shake.

Initially hesitant, you acquiesce, smiling while trembling, as though you're uncomfortable. The feeling is mutual. "Hello."

Ever the social butterfly, Hyunjin isn't able to read the room, oblivious to the fact that you and Hyeju are polar opposites. As a result, you're both undeniably incompatible. At least you can find some commonality in being unable to move the chat forward; whether out of kindness or a general difficulty in making a meaningful conversation out of your circumstances is up for interpretation.

"Well, if you need me, I'll just go to the bathroom," Hyeju says, breaking the cold silence that has been occupying the space for minutes. It''s so apparent, that it may as well have been hours. She walks away, much to your relief-and to Hyunjin's disappointment.

"Typical Hyeju, so cold to everyone that isn't a girl," she remarks, shaking her head in disbelief in a playful manner. In reality, she should have realized at the outset it was an outlandish plan to link up with a man, much less someone new.

Hyunjin looks around the area, scanning for potential new acquaintances and friends. She finds-no one. Everyone appears to have formed their own little groups or cliques, unintentionally singling you out. If there was any more apparent of a sign that you shouldn't be here, this is it.

And you'll make it known to her. Anything to get the notion through that thick skull of hers.

"See? I told you this party wasn't meant for me," you comment, moving your finger in every direction, pointing out the obvious. It's certainly quite the problem-for Hyunjin that is. For you, it's a blessing in disguise. "Look-if you want, I'll just pick you up later. Just text me when you wanna go home."

Annoyed, she shakes her head, vehemently denying the offer, pouting at you for even thinking about leaving her by herself. "Hey! Don't be such an asshole, okay? You want me to make you look bad? Try it. I dare you!"

You can only sigh in defeat. That's how these girls get you: by gaslighting or through emotional blackmail, and it works. Every single time. And even after making the same mistakes over and over, you still wonder why you've been through four failed relationships in two years, now on your fifth. Perhaps there's a common denominator that you're quite stubborn to admit or are completely unaware of-you.

Clearing your throat with a cough, you reply, "Can't say I've been made to look bad before."

You're testing Hyunjin's patience, and for no good reason. This party is the only thing she's been looking forward all week long, and no amount of negativity is going to deny her. "Let's just have fun tonight, all right? That's all I want. Don't piss me off. It's been quite the week for me, and this is the only thing keeping me from going insane."

You shrug at her demand; you'll definitely have more fun being anywhere else but here. She doesn't seem to care about your plight, why should you?

Still, you follow her close behind, sharpening your focus anad keeping a close watch around your surroundings. Hyunjin doesn't know she's here, let alone your entire history with her. What started as a dull, uneventful night has slowly turned into a high stakes game of cat and mouse. With her stature, she could be anywhere; in front of you, over your shoulder, even as your very shadow.

So it becomes all the more troubling when Hyunjin does introduce you to more of her friends, keeping you preoccupied. She might as well have everyone form a large circle and present themselves like it's the first day of class. You go through the motions, dropping all this information overload at the earliest opportunity in an attempt to keep some semblance of awareness around you.

And sure enough, she's there. She's no hallucination. In the midst of the crowd, Yeojin stands across the room, all barely five feet of her. Her blue oversized sweater drapes half of her frame like a curtain. In one of the rare instances where her short stature works to her benefit, she effortlessly disappears when someone else walks between your line or sight, but not before smiling at you-grinning, asking, begging for trouble.

You blink twice, and before you know it, she's gone. Your attention is suddenly called by Hyunjin, seemingly introducing you to yet another one of her friends. Still, your mind remains fixated on her-the girl you haven't seen in six months. Her number had been removed from your contacts, every photo deleted and her social media accounts blocked. Of course, meeting her again was still plausible; you haven't moved out from this side of the country, but the fact you've run into each other at the same building, at the same occasion-it seems too good to be true.

"Hey-I need to use the bathroom," you tell Hyunjin mindlessly, your stare lingering at the open passage at the other side of the room, your escape route. The words seemingly go unnoticed, until you look at her, deep in conversation with her another one of her countless friends.

That's your cue to escape.

So you make a beeline for the exit, trying to catch even the slightest glimpse, but to no avail. You scour every room, looking for any sign of her, only to find nothing. She could have easily left the party in the time you were distracted. Asking anyone for her whereabouts is akin to a death sentence; word spreads like wildfire, and if anyone else knew of your history with Yeojin, it would be the end of the world.

You recognize you're tempting fate with your next decision. It's dangerous. You should let her go; there's a reason why you haven't spoken to her ever since.

Going through your phone, you put in the numbers. Truth is, her number is no longer saved in your contacts, but kept deep inside your notes app. Taking a deep breath, you press the danger button, cautiously waiting for her to pick up.

She answers.

"Hey."

Even through a single word, you can visualize that bratty, cocky grin. Her smug attitude, the triumph in her voice, it's oh so crystal clear. As if you've finally come calling back like the prodigal son, having recognized the error of your ways, after swearing you'd be somebody without her, even though it's the exact opposite: she's the one who walked out on you.

"Yeojin."

"Missed your babygirl?"

"Fuck you."

She gets off on that one single word. It's branded deep into her veins. Even when you're no longer together, it's become a part of her. To say you've left an indelible mark on her would be an understatement. You've changed Yeojin-for the worse.

"That word lost all its meaning when you walked out on me," you follow, months of frustration boiling up through your voice. "So don't come at me with that anymore."

"Technically, I came up with the idea of calling me babygirl. So I have the final say in whether it means anything or not."

There she goes again, not even thirty seconds in, acting as if she were the biggest, most important person, which right now, unfortunately, she is. You already knew how disastrous it would be to open Pandora's box the moment you even thought of calling her, yet here you are, regretting that decision and its consequences. Clearly you didn't think this through-or you simply just needed an excuse to get away from the crowd, from Hyunjin, from everything.

Likewise, she's feeling the same way too.

"Anyway, what brings you crawling back? Let's talk."

"Yeah." You carefully look over your shoulder, keeping tabs on the party happening inside. No one has thought of stepping out to catch some air, thankfully, but they'll be coming out in droves soon enough. "Let's talk."

"Basement parking lot. If you dare," she says before hanging up, challenging you, as if you weren't planning to head there regardless.

-----

As the elevator doors open, Yeojin's echoed laugh is the first thing that welcomes you to the otherwise empty parking lot. The second being her shameless, mocking face when she turns around and familiarizes herself with your presence. Scanning you from head to toe, her eyes glint with delight, seeing that for the most part, nothing has changed.

For the most part. You look traumatized.

"So great to see you again," Yeojin remarks, running up to meet you in a warm, endearing embrace. "I missed you so much."

Pushing her away, her lips can't help but leave marks on your neck, leaving familiar pink lipstick marks on your skin. Barely a minute since you've reunited, and you're already wishing Yeojin was once again gone in your life.

"C'mon, lighten up. Aren't you happy to see me too?" She elbows your rib playfully, its impact a feathery blow but otherwise devastating to your psyche. Every little thing she does is purposefully curated and designed to piss you off.

"You've left me with no other choice," you tell her, sighing, wishing you'd be anywhere else but this building. It's turned into your personal hell, your inescapable prison.

"Poor Hyunjin's gonna be so heartbroken when she finds out you've left her for me," she remarks, grinning, smirking, gloating. "How long have you been together? Two months?"

"Two weeks," you immediately correct her, because in all honesty, you're still in the talking stage. This party was a way-or a trap-for Hyunjin to get through your otherwise impenetrable shell. She doesn't seem to have learned from others that you're the homebody, stay at home type. Maybe she does, but she believes she can fix you. And maybe it's for the better to end this relationship before it deepens further, because it'll probably hurt less-for her, at least.

Yeojin makes a face-exaggerating her features, surprised that you didn't spend the last six months isolating yourself in your apartment, ashamed after fumbling the self-proclaimed so-called cutie hottie of the city.

"That'll do it," she continues to comment, her tongue a weapon to fire against anything and anyone.. "I'm amazed that it took you that long to leave her. Such a talkative bitch, right? I bet she won't let you hit that fat ass of hers."

To her credit, she's correct about two of three things. You're baffled at how she still has friends, knowing how much she constantly spites them behind their backs, and how narcissistic she is. Your conversations with her prove this.

But to avoid pouring fuel to the fire, you simply let it pass without another word, until she's forced to change the conversation.

"So-you wanna come fuck me?" Yeojin is so unabashedly straightforward that it's refreshing, as much as you hate how direct and to the point she is. "I don't see any reason for us to talk any further, except for slamming that big cock of yours inside me."

Taking a step back, you're not exactly stunned by her choice of attire tonight. If there's anything Yeojin has taught you, it's to be prepared for any opportunity where she'll pounce and you're forced to fuck her brains out. She's always been like this: dressing the bare minimum to avoid getting arrested under public indecency, making the flimsiest excuses to get railed that she'd forgo all pretense and be candid about wanting to walk around with your cum leaking from her cunt. She loves the thrill of the chase, while you hate drawing all this unwanted attention by playing along with her dangerous antics.

It's why you wanted out to begin with.

"How'd you know I was gonna be here?" you question her, despite recognizing that she'll give an unreliable answer.

"Everyone knows this is the party to be at," she comments, tone matter-of-fact, crossing her legs, her arms folded behind her back. "All our college friends are here. It's a reunion. Didn't Hyunjin tell you that?"

You overlooked all the fine details when she was discussing this with you on the way here. Maybe even while you were busy gaming yesterday.

"Well that explains why I saw Heejin back there, and the others, I guess."

"Still the forgetful S.O.B even after all this time," she remarks, unable to resist throwing whatever snide remark she can. "You know Sooyoung was there too! Your ex? And Yerim! Your other ex. And also Jinsol-"

"You know damn well I didn't ask to be invited," you say, crossing your arms and shooting her a frustrated glare. It's an anger aimed toward your circumstances, not specifically at Yeojin herself, even if she was the icing on the cake of what is a rather miserable night. "Given any other choice, I'd rather not call you. Nine times out of ten."

"Yet here you are-stuck with me. So who's really the loser now?"

God, Yeojin makes it difficult to be patient sometimes. Often, actually.

"Let me put it to you this way," Yeojin starts again, and you're certain she's about to say something dangerous.. There's a persuasiveness in her delivery that you can't help but listen. "You don't want to be here. I don't want to be here. I just want to get fucked, but this is boring me. You're bored as hell, too. Do you see where I'm coming from?"

In all honesty, yes you do. You could have seen the conclusion coming a mile away.

"Yeah. You're asking me to fuck you."

"Exactly!" Yeojin grins at your response, elated to hear the answer straight from the source. She's full of joy, she's close to jumping for joy at how well you know her after all this time. It's both a blessing and a curse. "So you can either do one of two things: you can leave me here, pretend this never happened, and go back up there. And God knows if that place is a wreck by now. Or, you can have me here. Up to you."

You look left and right, scanning your surroundings. Ticketing is electronic, so there is little risk of getting caught by guards. But then, there are cameras scattered all over the place. And while there are dozens of rows with cars parked side by side to hide behind, there's no telling exactly when someone is going to emerge from that elevator and peek through your secret act, even if everyone is all conveniently partying upstairs making a bigger scene.

Yeojin's pushing the limit as to how you can come away with her completely unscathed. So really, it's a pick your poison situation, with either choice resulting in a slow, agonizing death.

A gunshot to the head would be a better fate than this.

"You're fucking insane if you think I'm going to fuck you in an empty parking lot, Yeojin," you tell her, unamused at the offer. There's a third, hidden option that doesn't have to involve this much risk; it's hiding somewhere beneath that playful facade of hers.

Yeojin doesn't flinch at all. She knows you can take it and follow through, as you have done for her countless times. In the movie theater, in a bathroom stall, in the locker room-you've followed her through some of the most cramped and dangerous places, leaving a scene behind, barely escaping with your lives. If anything, a parking lot is on the tamer side. So much legroom, so much space, with little in terms of opposition-you're never gonna have this free of a runway to fuck her brains out that isn't confined to a bedroom, which, in her words, is 'boring.'

Yeojin faces you with a smirk. A taunting, shit-eating grin that's insufferable to stare at for longer than five seconds. She stares back as if she's got it all mapped out, which, judging by how composed and deliberate she has been, is more likely than you think. It wouldn't surprise you if she had spent the past few weeks positioning everything to fall into their respective place, working around countless different outcomes, to lure you out for the occasion.

From the pocket of her oversized sweater she pulls out a pair of keys, jingling them directly in your face. Pressing a button, a clicking sound echoes throughout the basement. It's the alarm coming from your car.

Panic immediately sets in. "How did you-"

"Took em' while I was hugging you," she says, her confidence at an all-time high, flaunting the item around like it's hers. Like she owns you.

"Give it," you demand, extending your hand out, deliberately ignoring the obvious: she won't yield easily.

"Nah," is the immediate response, silent but heartily laughing at your admittedly feeble and foolish attempt to reason with her. "Gonna have to play with my terms."

"Will you stop-God damn it."

You're falling back into old ways like they're worn out shoes. Like it's second nature, a force of habit. She's living in your head rent-free.

"No problem." Taking a moment to compose yourself, you turn around and make a beeline for the lone elevator. The most effective way to kill something is right at the source: her desire for attention. "I'll be back later for the keys when the party's done."

"What? You're seriously not gonna go up there, are you?" Yeojin doesn't buy your ruse one bit. "You wanna lose a perfectly nice car to the girl you already lost too?"

"You need a booster seat to see the road clearly, bitch," you retort, your heated exchange turning into an impromptu screaming contest. "And besides, you still don't have a fucking driver's license."

Right then and there, triggered by your remark, she snaps.

Briskly following you in hot pursuit, you shut the elevator door on her as you're taken up back to the party. Missing you by the slimmest of margins, the last thing you see before the panels close is her scowl, a fist hurled in the air, and the echo of a emphatic 'fuck' that rips through the entire basement.

Only now are you starting to truly grasp the consequences of reopening old wounds.

When you rejoin the function, the atmosphere and overall area has turned into an irredeemable mess-a far cry from when you first entered the room. The whole place reeks of smoke, alcohol, and even slick. There's guests laid out on the floor unconscious, choking in a pool of their own saliva and vomit, while everyone else has turned up their lasciviousness and energy up to eleven. You're searching for Hyunjin, hoping she hasn't been corrupted by the madness of it all, and you eventually find her-deep in a passionate kiss with Heejin in the corner of the karaoke room, behind a sea of other inebriated partygoers.

And even if you screamed from the depths of your lungs, the guy on the microphone-not even trying to hit a note-overpowers anything else. He's singing close to the mic, filling the room with a horrible screech that fucking rings, leaving a resounding pain thumping in everyone's ears, including yours.

You recognize the whole situation is a complete and utter disaster. The best option being, throwing yourself out the balcony. Someone probably did.

So before someone exposes you to more doses of lethal poisoning, you quickly shuffle out of there, and bolt into the elevator. You don't head for the basement, because a little demon is waiting for you there. Instead, you land on the ground floor, quietly walking past the front desk and security like a local tenant. They're just standing there, idle and seemingly oblivious to the situation happening upstairs. There's no way anyone dwelling near hasn't called the security on them.

None of that is your business, however.

As you make your way out the apartment lobby and into the foyer, your phone receives a text. One you shouldn't be giving a second of your attention to. It's Yeojin.

> Where tf are you

She's typing as you read, while you're waiting for her to finish her follow up before possibly replying:

> You know I can't fucking drive

You chuckle at her self-awareness, regardless of the sincerity-or lack thereof. She's still going:

> I know you're not at that party. I just KNOW

> Tell me where tf are u

You think about it for a good minute or two, undecided on whether to leave her on read or to actually formulate a response. You settle on the latter.

> Keep my keys warm for me, I'll come by for them next week

She doesn't reply back. Instead, she decides to call you straight up, and you're still playing with fire, answering her right away:

"Hello?" Yeojin's already shouting through the phone, but it's nothing compared to the absolute violation that is the guy on the karaoke.

"Hey."

Her spunky rage echoes through the phone's seakers, charming more than threatening. She's barking angrily like a tiny dog. "Are you seriously gonna leave me? Without your keys? I'm going to throw them away. And then what will you do?"

"Go ahead," you tell her, matter-of-fact, because you know she won't follow through. She's all bark and no bite.

Yeojin growls, so evidently frustrated, so annoyed that you're not as flexible as you once were. "I hope she fucking cheats on you!" she yells, eliciting a gentle chuckle out of you.

"What's so funny?" she adds, catching your half-hearted laugh through the grainy reception.

"God seems to have heard you then."

"She did? Really? What happened now?" Yeojin sounds surprised, as if she hasn't been secretly praying for you and your loved ones' downfall ever since.

"I saw her making out with Heejin. As in, deeply lip locked. Tongues out and everything."

After pausing for a moment, letting the details sink in, she says, "Well. I shouldn't be surprised about that. They're joined at the hip, honestly."

"Really?"

"Mhm. But look-" her inflection abruptly shifts, going from relaxed to casual. "Let's just call it a truce for tonight, yeah? I'm tired. You're tired. I just wanna go home, and so do you. So tell me where you are exactly, and I will give back the car key."

You find Yeojin willingly surrendering hard to believe, as if you've suddenly stepped into an alternate reality. That, or her attitude has changed abruptly in the span of five minutes for no good reason. "Are you being serious for once? I don't buy it."

"You're so unbearable, you know?" she replies, confirming your theory that she hasn't changed-at least completely. But after firing back, she groans, deflated. "Just tell me where you are so we can talk like adults for once."

Your eyes happen to stumble upon a cafe across the street, open 24 hours. You've found it; the place where you'll settle the score and arrange everything on your terms.

-----

As soon as you finish stirring your coffee, Yeojin comes into view. Slowly approaching you, her mannerisms are careful, deliberate, as though you're two professionals meeting for business negotiations. You don't welcome her with any pleasantries-no greetings, no playful taunts, only a cold, watchful glare.

Sitting down across you, she notices there's only one cup of coffee on the table. It bothers her seeing you like this: moving on your own, without her at your side. It's completely unnatural. "Didn't think to order me one?"

You blink a few times. Not a single word is uttered. You carefully lift the cup and take a sip of your drink before putting it back down, much to her not so subtle chagrin.

She takes a deep breath and exhales. Every quiet interaction, every movement of the eyes is a tense exchange. Neither of you are willing to make the first move, cautious of getting undercut or taken by surprise. It's a quiet stalemate.

Eventually, Yeojin relents. Leaves you for a moment to buy her own drink. The realization finally dawns on her: that you're not going to budge or fold like you used to.

And for once, she should grow up too.

"What's with the look?" Yeojin casually shoots at you, taking a sip of her iced coffee, pointing out your stone-faced expression. Her observation: it looks painful holding on to that face. Your muscles must be straining keeping it together. "It's not like I'm gonna pull a gun on you and rob you, or anything like that."

An incorrect assessment. She does have something you need: your car keys.

"Is it because of me?" she adds, jokingly pointing her index finger back at herself. Knowing very well that she's a huge reason why. It's in her blood not to take issues seriously whenever it concerns you. "I know. Don't worry. Lighten up a bit."

But you don't, out of precaution-worried of what may happen when she sees the slimmest of openings.

She leans forward, her frame halfway over the table. Her stature means she has to make a concerted effort to reach you, which has been the story of her night so far. Even her attempt at looking angry comes off as half-hearted and unserious. It shows when she tries to grab for your shirt; she physically can't-unless she wants to pay the cafe for a new desk.

"Yeojin, please," is your reply, huffing in her direction before looking away, avoiding eye contact.

"Please what? Stop being annoying?" she says, offended by the implied intention, when in reality, you just want things to be resolved once and for all. That you can go your separate ways and never cross paths again.

What a cruel thing to do in her eyes.

"How bout you stop being a bitch so I can give you your damn car keys back?" Yeojin finally breaks from her playful facade, fiercely jingling your keys in front of you, having abandoned all sense of subtlety and teasing. The desperation is finally catching up. "Jesus. You're just as annoying as when I left you."

Of course, it doesn't bother you in any shape or form. She grows more frustrated at your lack of a direct response.

Placing the keys on the table, she sits back down, averting your gaze but in the opposite direction-sighing.

You shoot her a brief glance, checking once, then again for good measure, before sneakily taking the car keys back while she hasn't noticed. Unsurprisingly, it's part of yet another plan of hers.

"Go. Take them. If it that's what will make you happy," she blurts out, evidently defeated, her tone crestfallen. "I just wanted to see you. You know-for old times sake."

"Hey. Don't get all nostalgic, saying you miss me when you were the one that walked out on me, remember?" You shut down all hopes of reconciliation with that one response. "I can see why you haven't been in a relationship for longer than two weeks."

Yeojin turns her head toward you, visibly irate. She looks as if she's refusing to take accountability. "You know today's my birthday right?"

"Is it?" you tell her, knowing she's lying with a straight face-it was two weeks ago.

"Don't look at me like that," she says, leaning slightly forward on the table. "As if you haven't been following me in secret. All those pictures I've been posting on Instagram-"

"Has nothing to do with me," you interrupt, brushing her rebuttal away as if it were meaningless. "You've always been thirst trapping. Seriously, you should take up being a camgirl if you want all that attention."

Yeojin narrows her eyes. Try as she might, there's no universe where she rips your throat out at the suggestion. "No fucking way."

"I could help you make an account if you're having problems signing up," you tell her, "At least you can make money that way. And you get to have a new guy to use as your personal toy every single week without looking stupid."

"It means nothing without you," she says, taking another sip of her drink in between. "Something about you feels-different. Like, this all feels hollow and useless when you're not around."

"Stop being melodramatic and embrace what you really are," you immediately retort, not buying her feeble attempts at sentimentality. "A slut."

"Are you being dense?" Yeojin's voice turns a bit more raspy and sharp with each response, as if she's being attacked on a personal level, when it's all true. You've found her like this: a thirst trapping self-professed model who posts suggestive pictures of herself and in the lewdest poses. Fifty thousand followers and eight boyfriends later, not much has changed. Making herself look available despite being in said relationships, using the most suggestive captions-they might as well be nonexistent. "I'm not a slut!"

"Yeah you are," you tell her, flashing your phone displaying her current boyfriend's Instagram page. The last post dated barely over 24 hours ago, her side profile clearly in view, kissing him on the cheek. No lying or running around such evidence. "A slut. Does he-"

Yeojin leans back on the couch, her infidelity exposed, distraught at getting caught red handed. She doesn't even try to keep the secret contained, belting out her demand, "Hey-don't you fucking dare send anything!"

"I'm not going to," you tell her, pulling back your phone, taking no pleasure from cornering her like this. More often than not, reining her in was a burden and an immense struggle that didn't provide any relief, only uncertainty as to when she'll break loose again. She's never been comfortable as a caged animal; she has to run free. "I think I oughta let him know where your whereabouts are, you know? Out of concern for-"

She's suddenly lunging for your phone, trying to snatch it off your hands. Shielding it with your body, her strikes prove to be surprisingly painful, knocking the breath from your lungs, but you hold on-for her sake and yours especially. When she relents, you take the opening to push her away, sending her back on the other side.

"Don't you fucking dare," she says, grasping at straws to gain even a little sympathy or favor back, when all that goodwill disappeared the moment she walked out of your life. You press somewhere on your phone-and the sound rings through her ears like a gunshot. Drawing it back to your pockets, you've seemingly fired a weapon aimed directly at her heart.

"Too late."

Yeojin melts, falling further into the couch, having put her down for good.

"I hope you didn't actually send it," she mutters from beneath the table, away from your direct view, her final cry of defeat. "God, don't take this from me, please-" she's pleading, begging for her life, knowing it'll be what ends her.

"You've done this to yourself," you tell her, sounding like a judge sending her off to her damnation. "You left me with no other choice."

"Really, I didn't," she replies, still refusing to take any sort of accountability for her actions, and that'll never truly change. "He-he didn't wanna go with me to the party."

"Did he ask for an invite? Or did you simply leave him behind without a second thought?"

Yeojin cannot answer that question. She goes quiet, unable to respond.

"I figured," you tell her, feeling a little sympathy for how vulnerable and defeated she looks. "If you seriously think you can crawl your way out of this one, you're gravely mistaken."

It's easy to remember why leaving Yeojin-or in this case, Yeojin leaving you-was the best thing to ever happen to your life. Cleaning up after her is often a chore, one that requires so much effort for someone of her little stature. You can't even pick her off the couch without applying some force; she's lying on her side, staring blankly into the darkness, her soul drained in its entirety, but her body glued to the couch. Had she been a pet, and believe her, she'd rather be an animal more than human, she'd be living her best life, getting all the attention she craves and doing whatever she wants without punishment. But in this world, actions have consequences, and she's starting to reap what she has sown.

It's a good thing no one else is around to see or hear your little scene. Nevertheless, you might as well keep it contained before word spreads like wildfire.

You don't want to be seen with her in public ever again.

Locking yourselves inside the men's bathroom, you plop Yeojin down on the floor. Despite looking modern, it's not the most well-maintained. Someone should really get on it, but the workers aren't paid enough to care. She fits naturally in her new surroundings: strewn on the floor in nothing but messy clothes and passed out after a wild night of unchecked debauchery.

"I hate you," she murmurs, getting off the ground and sitting right in front of you, within close proximity of your pants. You're unbuckling the belt, working your way down the zipper and buttons. "If you think giving me your cock as consolation is gonna make me feel better-"

"Isn't this what you wanted?" you tell her, pulling down your trousers and whipping out your cock from its confines, stroking it to full mast in front of her face. It's not enjoyable whatsoever; if anything, it feels like a waste of a perfectly hot load to give back to someone you hate. You're questioning yourself if this is even the right thing to do-which it isn't.

Yeojin takes hold of your cock mid pump, begging softly with her eyes to allow her control. You oblige her as she jerks your tip toward her pristine features, her fingers moving like it's second nature. "Yeah, but you didn't have to push me like that. I mean-he's still my boyfriend-"

"Not anymore," you remark, grabbing a fistful of her short dark locks, eliciting a whiny yelp from her saccharine lips. "This is for ruining my night," you rasp, breathing heavily as her grip spreads throughout your loins, struggling to keep yourself together. All that pent up frustration finally bubbling to the surface, and now with an outlet for release.

The timing couldn't have been any more perfect.

Soon, your muscles tense and tremble uncontrollably as Yeojin's hot breath and lips fill themselves with your cock. Slowly but surely, her mouth takes you, inch by inch, her tongue wrapping and licking around the tip, down your length, and you can't contain yourself any further. As pleasure builds from within your stomach, you gradually loosen up-groaning away from her in a half-assed attempt to hide your not so subtle enjoyment.

"Maybe I do miss this mouth," you blurt out, heaving deeply between breaths as her noises vibrate and surge through your shaft, reaching the ends of your body, shocking every nerve. From careful reluctance to reinvigorated enthusiasm, Yeojin sinks back in, having never lost a beat in the time she's last filled her mouth full of you. With all the relationships she's had ever since, it would have been disappointing had she forgotten how to work her magic. Fortunately, sucking cock is one department she has never let you down on.

She releases your cock from her lips with a wet, audible pop, giving your tip a kiss. Looking up, the grin on her features is reforming. "Aha-I knew you would fucking fold like a bitch-"

You force yourself back in, dissolving her words with a mouthful of cock, pulling at her locks to regain command. Digging her fingers deep into your thighs, unwilling to let go, you're back at square one. This is how everything starts: with Yeojin on her knees, her hands gripped to your skin, sucking on your shaft while you drag her by the hair. It's a twisted game of tug of war, where both of you end up winners.

But right now, you have the upper hand: Yeojin's satisfied moans reverberate through your shaft, disappearing and reappearing in her mouth with a fresh coat of saliva and precum. She's bobbing her head back and forth, her cheeks hollowing out, her lips reaching further down your length with each stroke. She's eerily quiet too, her noises reduced to mostly incoherent sounds as she dives further down, kissing and sucking on your balls, gasping at little breaths for air. It feels so good, so heavenly, that you're considering backtracking all those missteps from long ago.

All this ecstasy for you and you alone-your lust and greed knows no bounds.

She looks up, her eyes wide, your cock pressed halfway between her mouth, spit falling from the edges of her lips, muttering, vibrating: "You like that? You like what I'm doing to your cock?"

"Fuck-fuck yes, babygirl."

You finally fold, using the one word you swore to never use again, breaking your own sacred vow. It should hurt, but it doesn't-it was never really of dire importance, anyway. So much for being the bigger person in this relationship.

"That's right. Tell me I'm your babygirl," she goads, going down and sucking your balls a second time, giving them a squeeze, twisting your head into a pile of mush.

Even when you pull by her hair, Yeojin uses it to her advantage, pressing her nose against your stomach, her lips reaching your base, kissing you and marking every inch of your cock with her lips. This indescribable suction that absolutely swallows you-it's a miracle you haven't dissolved right then and there. Your senses are beyond overwhelmed, and it's only registering blurs of her: her eyes, her moans, her everything. It's come to a point where you're forced to pump into her, filling her down to the throat in a desperation attempt to keep the fire burning.

Those fucking eyes-staring back and forth between your aimless gaze and your cock. It's unbelievable. The room begins to spin around. There's so much happening all at once to say a single word, let alone an entire sentence. Even when she's gagging and coughing, she's still relentless, her efforts steady and unshakeable. Only God knows the smile hiding beneath the pain and pleasure, getting what she wants in the end.

"So-so fucking close-" you manage to sputter, your jaw going completely slack, your groans reaching up to high heaven in a thunderous echo. The tug on her hair is so tight, you're threatening to rip them out.

With your cock buried deep in her throat, Yeojin's eyes are welling up from the overwhelming sensation, basking in this old, familiar feeling. She doesn't know if she'll get an opportunity like this again (hopefully more in the future). Her fingers clamp around your length, ensuring your load lands nowhere but her. Face, mouth, clothes-anything to cover her as a memento reminder of what things used to be.

She effortlessly strokes away, fully sinking into the act. Your cock tenses and tenses, until the pressure becomes too suffocating. You can't hold it in any longer; you can only hope the outcome isn't violent enough to be made into a crime scene.

It takes only a few more fleeting moments. Between raging storms, there's calms that give off the illusion that everything will be fine-when there's no chance of that happening. The confined space fills your ears with echoes of lewd noises, her dampened moans, your throaty grunts, and everything else in between. Her hot breath tickles your cock, muttering a gentle whisper, a soft plea (please cum), and it sends you careening over the edge.

A slosh sound passes through deaf ears, and you're left blind, screaming, throbbing for her. Releasing your load, shooting heavy blasts into something-someone-till your cock no longer aches. Pulling her hair is like pulling a broken lever: completely ineffective and useless.

When you finally snap from your spiraling daze, you're welcomed back by the most snapshot pornographic image you've ever seen: her mouth wide, tongue exposed, sticky white and full of cum. It's everywhere-on her hair, dripping down her face and chin, even on her clothes. You didn't think Yeojin could gleam any brighter, but she's glistening so brilliantly it's blinding.

"Mmm," she hums to herself, licking herself clean of all the mess, if there's even anything to salvage, while you're left wobbling, struggling for air. "Fuck. That tastes so good."

She's running her fingers along the fabric, picking off what little pieces of you remain. Lingering on the blots on her sweater, she realizes it's beyond wear and begins to lift the garb over her head. Behind that thick piece of clothing, she's wearing-nothing.Not even a bra. Her wooly fleece is hiding those small but taut nipples and the rest of pale, creamy skin.

But before you get a good view, you reach for her arms and bring them back down. "Shit. Shit. Stop."

Startled at your sudden turn and lunge, Yeojin backs away. "What are you-"

You snap at her, "Quiet."

You hurriedly reach for the exit. Carefully opening the door and looking outside, you notice that not much has happened, if at all. And then your eyes widen at the new sight. Two new customers have entered the store and are making their way around a table, drinks in tow.

As you lock the door behind you, Yeojin looks at you amusingly, her gaze mostly centered around your oozing cock. "Damn. I thought you were gonna run around the cafe with-that."

You fire back with a quiet, yet resounding glare. She doesn't react whatsoever. Here's you again, making impulsive moves, almost threatening to get caught in public like that.

"I mean, everyone's gonna see that-"

"Hush."

Placing a finger between her lips to shut her up, understandably, you're irate. Somehow, your head wasn't in the right place. Those last ten minutes and beyond, from the time you carried Yeojin into the men's room till now-you didn't think you were gonna wind up like this. Public restrooms were always how you'd get yourselves in trouble, and how she'd prefer getting fucked.

It should have been a thing of the past, a part of you buried deep in the absolute depths of your mind. Yet here you are, carrying Yeojin onto the sink, pulling on her clothes. One after another, her platforms and stockings fall to the floor, until she's left with the thinnest piece of underwear imaginable. And then you've come to the realization about two things: one-she's not wearing anything other than a skimpy thong beneath, cleverfully concealed by her oversized sweater, and two-she's soaking wet. A careful touch of her nylons reinforces your observation.

"I hope you're fine going home without your stockings," you tell her, kicking the soiled garments beneath the sink. Hopefully no one gets a hint as to whoever's left them behind. "Jesus-you're fucking horny, you know that?"

Yeojin giggles. She wears your comment like a badge of honor.

Wrapping her arms around your waist, she's hoping to get the rest of your clothes off in return, but you push her away. Shaking your head in disagreement, you follow with, "Do as I say, and we'll get through this-quickly."

As you try to keep her in check, she's already looking for other ways to mess you up. Case in point, her fingers are pumping your cock back into hardness, forcing that last word to come out a tone higher. She wraps you around her hands, squeezing what little cum you currently have, moaning at the slick, silky touch. Her legs are spreading wide in an effort to distract you from the primary concern, which is her.

"But what if I don't wanna do it quickly? What if I wanted you to fuck me for hours?" she playfully asks, twisting her grip tighter to elicit a cry from you. "What if I wanted to fuck me till I pass out? Like you always have?"

"Mm-not gonna happen," you sputter out, swiping her hand away before ultimately seizing it, relieving the pain for now. "Not if you keep being this stupid."

"Not you calling me stupid-aah-ah fuck-"

Yeojin trembles from the waist up, her train of thought derailed by the new sensation entering her dripping pussy: your cock. Both of you form a harmonious cacophony of moans that fill the confined room as your bodies intertwine. The hot sensation of your shaft impales her in brutal slow motion, her skinny thighs clamping around your hips, the tug of her cunt near inescapable as you fill her to the hilt.

At first, she wrestles for control. Pulling at your shirt, at your skin, threatening to rip your flesh clean, as a respite. But as the feeling overwhelms her sense, she's losing the fight just as quickly. Your bodies are perfectly connected, fit as two pieces of a puzzle that complete the other. Her eyes flare wide open, her gaze shooting up to the ceiling as she begins to ascend. "H-holy shit-this-so-goddamn big-"

The feeling is mutual. "God, Yeoj-you're-goddamn tight-fuck-"

Her cunt clenches, and it's so, so intoxicatingly tight. As if she were really built to be used and fucked. Not to mention, her stature makes her easy to carry and toss around on a whim.

Little by little, you're lifting her off the sink, giving her no choice but to cling to you for support. Might as well; no one else is able to give her the time of day and the same level of care and attention as you, both emotionally and sexually. There's a reason why she's come back to you like a needy, loyal pet.

Her nails dig into your scalp and at the back of your neck. Whispering against your ear, her breath hot, she begs, "Fuck me. Please-fuck-fuck-ah!"

And you're doing exactly that. Carefully drawing your cock back close to her slick entrance, you're thrusting upward, your bodies uncontrollably trembling and quivering as you plunge back in, delivering a stroke that makes Yeojin scream. She's so feathery, so airtight, that you can bear the weight of the world and then some.

She drives her fingers deep into your skin, aching, crying. "So-so fucking good-I missed this-more-more-"

And you're doing it again. Giving her exactly what she wants: a slow, good fucking. It's what she lives for: to be pounded and used, to be an outlet of pleasure.

You're hammering up and into her, gripping her lean waist pressed against the bathroom sink, your attention focused on the little details. The whispers that fill your ears, the repetitive but gratifying moans and begs she makes, asking for more, harder, faster, and the satisfaction that comes with being fucked senseless. The way her legs clamp tight with each thrust. The restroom wasn't designed to keep secrets; it's clear in your collective groans and grunts that bounce off the thin four walls of this confined space. You can only hope you're not being loud enough for those two patrons to hear.

Better yet, you can only pray Yeojin's voice cracks, because even after yapping up a storm, she's keening. Her tone rides a delicate wave between soothing, gentle quiet and eardrum shattering, high alert whining. You're unsure if it's a joke or if she's really feeling each stroke. you can never tell whether Yeojin is truly serious, even during sex. Regardless, her cries are breaching through the confines of the bathroom, and you can't contain her, even if you tried.

And she loves it. More than anything, it's the thrill. The possibility and wanting to be caught. Consequences be damned, if she can get railed in public, she absolutely will. It's the sort of attention she craves for, the one people will remember-for better or for worse. Someone like her can't simply be bottled up.

With it comes a new idea. You prop Yeojin back on the sink, facing her against the mirror and bending her over the counter.

"You wanna see yourself getting fucked? Here."

Grunting against her ear, you tilt up Yeojin's head as the glass reflects your image back. Her mouth falls wide as you fill her cunt with your cock, a thunderous echo slipping from her lips, her cry reverberating through the bathroom. Taking a mental snapshot of your position, it's here where you notice that there is, in fact, a camera hidden in the corner of the restroom. The entire time, you've been under surveillance, but that's the least of your concern. It's about how you're gonna make a good impression, despite facing away, the mirror serving as your primary point of focus.

And damn, you look so good together, fitting like a glove.

Before you lose control over Yeojin, you're making an even worse mess of the restroom thanks to her. With each thrust, her slick spills from her core and onto the floor, onto your pants. You have her hands pinned on the sink for good measure, foregoing any sort of pace and rhythm for quick, senseless pounding. Her face is utterly wrecked, her features constantly twisting and contorting, dropping the occasional curse and praise here and there. The echo of skin slapping skin rings like music to your ears. It's pushing you further than her continued cries for more.

It's already perfect as is, but then she's wrapping a leg around yours, and you're daring to try something new.

So you lift her off the ground, wrapping both her legs around your hips, before continuing to hammer into her. Holding Yeojin by the waist, her back arches up, with her petite ass following along. Your cock comes into view, disappearing and reappearing behind her glistening hole, wet and coated with copious amounts of nectar. Every entry and exit feels smooth and effortless, as if you're meant to be.

She tries to push herself up, and it gives you another idea. Brushing a hand up her lean figure, lifting her sweater slowly, eventually reaching her chest. An emphatic cry assaults your ears as you grab one of her tits, crushing it under your grasp.

It's unfortunate you can't push her jumper up a little more. What's even the point of putting on a show when they can't see?

Still, she feels so soft and malleable, ready to be used at your command. You're rubbing your fingers along her taut nipple, rigid to touch, and it forces out these whines out of her. Anything to keep your mind off the inevitable, and it's close. Everywhere you look, she's right there, overwhelming your senses. Her pussy convulsing, her ass rippling with each stroke, her half nude figure you're dying to strip completely-it's all too much. The knot between your stomach grows tighter and tighter, choking you till you're close to suffocating.

Admittedly, it's happening sooner than you hoped. This is what you wanted from the start, but as you've been fucking her and remembering why you've put up with her for so long, you're starting to second guess every decision.

There's only so much to regret.

"Gonna cum again, babygirl-" you hiss, shutting your eyes and pouring every effort into filling her, making sure she never asks for anything from you ever again. Rolling your hips forward and with your bodies crashing violently, you have no choice but to hold onto her for safety.

And that's what completely ends you.

In that particular stroke, as you fill Yeojin to the absolute hilt with your cock, your bodies melt-with yours falling on top of her. Your voices intertwine and form a grand symphony of deep cries from the depths of your lungs. Gripping her waist, her pussy pulses and cums, pouring her nectar onto your shaft and to the floor. Staining your legs, keeping you glued together, the bond between you can't get any closer.

You feel every bit of Yeojin coming undone. Her eyes are wide shut, jaw slacked and on the sink, her voice gradually tearing itself to shreds. Even as she's falling from that blissful high, she's able to mutter two words, her most meaningful ones yet: "Thank you, thank you, thank you-"

And then it's your turn.

You follow right after with your own climax, taking a deep breath as you unload every drop of cum onto her pussy. Twitching and aching inside her, your cock sticks inside, unable to pull itself out, wanting to stay in this perfect mixture of warmth and wetness forever. It just feels right. You find it difficult to stop throbbing, even if the only thing left to shoot are blanks.

Subconsciously letting her legs fall back down to earth, you can't unglue yourself from her. The stickiness is keeping you together, and so is your tired body. Completely drained of all your strength, you press down on her, giving a back hug that also serves as a way to use her as your personal cushion. You stay like this, cuddled up and gasping for air, letting the hours pass you by peacefully undisturbed. Neither of you say a single word, both out of exhaustion and out of respect for the moment. Messy bathroom be damned, this is the most tender and intimate you've ever been, and you wish your relationship had taken a different direction than what ended up happening.

It's a glimpse into what could have been-and that's what makes it heartbreaking.

Eventually, you lift yourself off her, severing the connection between you. Your cum pulls apart when you take a step back, surprisingly rigid and firm. Simple tissues won't fix it. To make matters worse, Yeojin spins around, wrapping her arms around your neck before pulling you down with her for a deep, intimate kiss. It isn't the very act that's the issue here; it's how effortlessly you sink in and reciprocate her feelings.

Then your conscience reminds you. You feel dirty. You quickly pull back, disgusted-mostly at yourself.

Taking a moment, you both exchange lengthy stares at each other, unsure of what to say. Until-

"What have I done?"

"What I think you have done," Yeojin says, gleefully, tracing a finger down your wrinkled shirt, marked in sweat and her fingerprints. That sly grin of hers will forever haunt you in your memories. "Is get your girlfriend back."

-----

It's too late.

It's already half past midnight. The streets are empty. Yeojin's quietly sits in the passenger seat of your car while soft music plays in the background to fill in the blanks. There's five missed calls and a dozen texts from Hyunjin asking for your whereabouts, none of which you bother to read. Consequences are the last thing on your mind. Right now, it's about leaving the girl beside you for good, and that means driving her home.

To be clear, you're taking her back home-to her place, not yours. Your apartment is the last thing on the list you want ruined tonight as well.

Even after everything, she's still not satisfied. She unbuckles her seatbelt, activating the ceaseless alarm that assaults your ears. You're still a fair distance away, and the trains have stopped operating hours ago. You really had no other choice but to drive her.

"Hey. Put your seatbelt on," you blurt out at the sound of the harness clicking, only shooting a brief glimpse toward her before returning your focus on the road ahead. "What are you-"

She's back to her old ways. Slithering across the center console and over the gear stick, resting her head on your lap. Feeling extra touchy-feely, her hands rub along the fabric of your jeans, admiring your growing bulge poking through. Yeojin has no regard for personal space; never has, never will.

It comes as no surprise that you struggle to breathe, let alone drive in a straight line. Fortunately, you're driving along an empty road to crash into anything other than maybe a guardrail or a lamp post.

"Christ-" You mutter, shifting your lap around to cramp Yeojin, but she follows your path close behind, causing you even more discomfort. "Stop it, Yeojin-"

To your annoyance, she's unbuckling your pants, sliding them down along with your boxers. With no care or consideration, she runs her tongue across your stiff length, up to your tip. Her hand grips you, pumping you hard, building immeasurable pleasure in your loins. Cramped inside a moving vehicle, getting pleasured in near darkness with a rebellious girl thinking she's doing you a favor-you're once again regretting every decision that has lead you to this miserable situation.

You feel yourself getting dizzy in real time. You can only hold back for so long before you eventually crumble, like you always have. When it comes to Yeojin, she gets what she wants, always at your expense.

"Keep driving," she commands, licking circles around your tip, against your best wishes. She sounds like she has complete authority over you, really pushing her assertiveness at the worst moment imaginable. Tonight has given you plenty of losses, far too many to count-you won't let her win another one.

Your attempt at grabbing her hair comes off as a light head pat, a complement for how good she is with her mouth. Even if that was the intent, she's still gonna blow you inside this car. Idle minds are the devil's workshop, and she's being puppeteered by lust every time you share a ride. No matter the distance or time taken, she's always getting through your pants, ensuring no journey is complete without leaving the vehicle a dire mess.

If she keeps this up-and she will-she won't be only one trying to roll on top of you.

Pulling over the side of the road, Yeojin realizes you've stopped driving. Opening the door, you lift yourself off the driver's seat and step outside, leaving her to bounce her head against the warm leather. Taking all the fresh, cool air in, you finally feel relaxed. You hadn't given yourself a moment to breathe: after your little escapde in the cafe restroom, you were sprinting back to the parking lot, maintaining a low cover, and speeding through the city. The last few hours have been a whirlwind of highs and lows, none of it really sinking in-unless you were to indulge in a few drinks. And it's still not over-not until you finally bring Yeojin home.

Based on how obstinate she has been, still laying down on the driver's seat, she doesn't want this night to end.

"Get off," you shout at her, tone grating and sharp. You're just about to call it quits. If you weren't so morally conscious, you would have left her behind already.

"Get off? That's what I was trying to do," she remarks, sarcastic and facetious. Rolling over to her stomach, swinging her legs back and forth, she's looking silly, not even trying to hide her smirk. getting a kick out of teasing you.

You're deeply caught up in your impatience and frustration to notice she's baited you into sounding lewd. "Fuck off. After this, we're done. So fucking done."

"Are we? That didn't seem like it when you were fucking me from behind-"

"Get back in the passenger seat," you interrupt her, having walked from the middle of the highway to the car in an instant, whipping out a roll of duct tape from the glove compartment. You didn't need to say a word for her to understand the potential threat and subsequently comply. To make sure she doesn't wrestle control away from you, you ensure it stays of her reach for the rest of the trip.

And thankfully, she doesn't bother harassing you even once. The idea doesn't even come to mind. She sits still, as a good girl should.

Fortunately, you were only less than ten minutes away from her house. If the city was quiet, the suburban village where she lives is dead silent. Save for a few streetlights, it appears as though no one else resides here-or are on vacation elsewhere. Most times you've spent together, it's been in the comfort of your apartment.

Hovering over Yeojin's side, you swing the passenger door open. Even though it's a long shot, you're expecting her to get out. The moment she does, your foot will be right on the gas pedal, leaving her behind once and forall. Unsurprisingly, she stares at you instead, seemingly anticipating something-perhaps a kiss, an embrace, a fond farewell.

She gets none of that. You even unbuckle her seatbelt for good measure, telling a lot without saying anything at all.

Yeojin unbuckles your seatbelt, breaking the tension. Unusually, you don't move a muscle, not slapping her hand away, not even when her finger trails down your hand, reaching for your pants once again. It's clear she's bothered by how you've left her stockings back at the cafe, leaving her in nothing but an oversized sweater. She's moving in the opposite direction, shifting past the center console and onto your lap. You freely welcome her-all 4'11 inches of her-into your arms.

Kissing you on the lips, Yeojin slips her hand between your cheeks, her hands sinking down your body and to your pants, sliding them down along with your boxers. The entire time, you've left your clothes unbuttoned and readily accessible for her to reach. Gently smiling through the smooch, she rubs her nose against yours, softly giggling, as if to say she's known about your little secret.

But what's there to really say?

Effortlessly falling between the cracks, an airy moan departs your lips as Yeojin fills herself with your shaft. Firmly stuck in place with her body pressed all over you, your hands take lease of her clothed back, tired of feeling its wooly fabric. Lifting up her sweater over her head to be tossed aside right after, Yeojin is finally reduced to nothing.

You gaze down at her bare figure, awestruck. In return, she unbuttons down your shirt, exposing some of your skin, pecking down to your neck and your chest. Her little kisses leave you lightheaded, caressing her short hair in appreciation.

You're overstaying your welcome; you should be lone gone by now. You are, in fact-just not the way you anticipated.

Propping her over your lap, your relationship with Yeojin works best when your hearts are pounding wildly, screaming each other's name like it's the most important thing in the world. Nothing else but the sex matters, like right now. No wonder she often has to coax you into getting reckless, otherwise your conversations would only revolve around constant petty arguments with no clear resolution. It's because of your how well your bodies complement one another that you're still tolerating her presence in your lives.

All it takes is one look at her, riding you like her life depends on it, her cunt effortlessly bouncing on your cock, basking in the sensation of getting impaled over and over again. She's kissing all over your face, biting on your ear, rocking you like she wants to sweep you off your feet. And it leaves you utterly speechless every single time.

"God-please-give it all to me-fuck me like you mean it-"

And you're right there with her, matching her pace with every upward stroke. You especially love holding Yeojin like this, cradled in your arms, forcing every inch of your cock deep into her wet pussy, drawing these little whimpers out from her puckery lips. The more she keeps talking-pleading-the greater your motivation.

Though it overwhelms you-the tensing, the pulsing, the heat-you keep going. Her cunt feels so incredible, you only wished it was on a woman that had a better personality, one that wasn't making you regret your existence. But you don't care about that-not when you're taking control, losing grip to your lust and wanting to overpower her.

It hurts all the more when she sounds perfect, especially when you spin her around and pin her against the steering wheel. Watching her back arch, her ass ripple with each stroke, seemingly trying to outyell the car horn, putting you both on neighborhood watch for noise complaint. Not that there's anyone around to wake up and alert the authorities when looking at your surroundings, but the desire for shameless attention will always arouse Yeojin.

You're the only one who enables this kind of behavior, but you never realized that. That, or she's looks too good to notice.

You can only focus on reaching that climax again, hammering away at her cunt, watching her shimmy her hips as she grips the steering column, blanketing every lewd sound and profanity with a blast of the klaxon. It's as if you're demanding her to scream your name, to proclaim to everyone that she's yours and yours alone.

"Cum," you tell her. An instruction to be met. A demand. "Cum all over this fucking cock, slut."

The rapid change in intensity leaves her in an uncontrollable daze, setting her on fire. Throwing her head back, her body violently quivering in your grasp, she keens. She can't take it any longer getting used so mercilessly, even when she wants more. "Gonna cum-oh God-so so fucking wet, ah-"

She continues to bounce relentlessly even as the pleasure rips her in half. Of course Yeojin doesn't give two shits about messing up your carpets; it's a given that she'll make you pay for a fresh pair every time you have sex in the car. She cums-and she cums hard. Her slick juices puddle up on your lap, sticking on your skin, splattering on the edge of the leather seat, all while releasing a weak, airy moan that cracks her voice as a result of all that shouting and moaning.

It's enough to push you over the edge. The wetness, the smooth noise of skin slapping skin interspliced with her cries of pleasure. Nothing this pornographic should sound like music, but it does.

Yeojin whines a passionate cry when it hits-that rush of cum that fills her womb. Every little drop, you pour onto her needy, aching core. She's knocked the wind from your sails; you can only utter a hoarse groan of relief, in contrast to the relentless earsplitting noises that have pervaded your ears for the longest time.

You don't get the opportunity to take one final look at your handiwork. As soon as the climax ends, the crash follows immediately after, sending your head reeling. Yeojin takes this opportunity to pick her sweater off the carpet floor and put it back on. Hobbling out the passenger door, she leaves you slumped back in the drivers' seat.

Only now do you realize that her side of the door has been open the entire time.

"It's been fun," Yeojin says, evaluating herself at the side-view mirror to ensure she's not a complete mess. Even though she looksfar beyond saving given how grimy her appearance is. Frazzled hair, soiled sweater drenched in sweat and cum-not to mention she has nothing but her platforms to make up her lower half. Her underwear is lost somewhere beneath the car seats, likely as a memento. "You know, I got a whole boyfriend to go home to and what not-"

"Surely he isn't waiting for you inside that house, right?" you ask, puzzled by the sudden care for her actual lover. "I mean, I did send him that message-"

"I know you didn't." Yeojin grins widely at your response, having seen through the bluff. You never sent anything. It's a secret worth keeping for yourself. "He's on vacation, by the way. Thanks for giving me the best night I've had in forever."

"Yeah, and thanks for ruining what was already a terrible one," you reply, refusing to leave without delivering one last character breaking blow.

She laughs while walking backwards toward her house, smiling wide. "No problem. Talk to you later?"

Closing the passenger door and starting the engine, you shout back, "Never. Not in a million years."

"Of course." Yeojin opens the front door to her house, stepping inside, hiding herself behind the panel except her pretty face. "You know where to find me. Call me anytime."

(A/N: Well this was unfortunate timing in the worst way imaginable lmao. That's what happens when you get lazy with editing.

Thank you for the commission! I would also like to thank you for giving me carte blanche; first time writing someone Loona and Yeojin has always the boldest one despite being the maknae. Also gonna give this space to link fae's Yeojin fic that she posted earlier for anyone interested in a froggy double feature. Madlad's doing Kinkvember a month after debut, that's insane. Contract news broke out right as I was in the middle of editing and the power went down lmao. Anyway, finals is approaching, so I want to get it sorted before locking in for the final few weeks of the year. Thank you for reading!)
