Ball-Boy Tactics

Chapter 6.2



I clumsily grasped his hardness and began moving my hand up and down.“Haa…”Kwon Jungwoo let out a deep breath, his voice trembling. I could feel his excitement clearly through my hand. I was so focused on what I was doing that I even forgot to swallow.Not long after, Kwon Jungwoo wrapped his hand around my fully erect penis. He then began stroking me with a force that was far stronger than before, his fingers working the sensitive skin. It didn’t matter that I was bending over, pressing my face into his chest from the intense pleasure.“Ugh, it’s too fast…”“Give me your hand.”Kwon Jungwoo guided me to hold both of our erections together. I could feel them both swelling further in my grasp, their different sizes pressing against each other.He didn’t stop there. Covering my hand with his own, he forced me to stroke us both simultaneously. The hard, hot lengths rubbed against each other, and as the friction in my palm increased, clear fluid began to bead at the tips. As my hand became slicker, my lower abdomen tightened in arousal.“Ugh… I’m going to… I’m close….”Before I could finish my sentence, my release shot out. Since it was my second time, the ejaculation didn’t shoot as high, instead landing on our hands. White fluid dripped down Kwon Jungwoo’s thick-veined hand, leaving a trail behind.Kwon Jungwoo’s climax came shortly after mine. Even as he gazed at me, watching me pant and tremble in sensitivity, he didn’t stop his movements until he finally let go. I collapsed against him, breathless, as he wrapped his arms around me and lifted me effortlessly. I was too dazed, trying to catch my breath, to register what was happening.It wasn’t until I felt the soft mattress beneath me that I realized I had been laid on the bed.Positioned between my legs, Kwon Jungwoo pulled off his black sweatshirt. The muscles I had only imagined through the curves of his uniform were now right before my eyes in full view. His well-toned upper body moved with intimidating power as he shifted. And yet, his pale skin was so inviting that I felt an intense urge to kiss it, to leave marks of my own on him.While I was still entranced by his muscles, Kwon Jungwoo tossed a few condom boxes onto the bed from his pocket. Then, grabbing a bottle of lotion from the bedside table, he asked gently,“Can I use this lotion?”“Haa… lotion…?”His question seemed so out of place in the moment that I asked back in confusion. But before I could even answer, as if he had already decided to use it regardless, he squeezed a generous amount onto his fingers.Even in this situation, he was still thinking about skincare? It made sense though. Kwon Jungwoo was the type to take care of himself. His perfect skin was clearly the result of effort.Just as I had convinced myself of this, Kwon Jungwoo suddenly leaned in closer and began applying the lotion between my buttocks.“J-Jungwoo! What are you doing? Why are you moisturizing there…?”“Should I have asked if you had any lube? I didn’t think you’d have any, so I used this.”“Lube? Oh… So… does that mean I’m the one…?”“Why? Want me to be on the bottom?”He grinned, teasing me as if he were offering a favor, leaving me speechless as I blinked in shock.Lately, I had been watching a lot of videos with only men, so I was familiar with the roles. Naturally, I had imagined myself in the dominant role, the one doing the penetrating.I couldn’t easily picture Kwon Jungwoo, who was bigger than me, being the one underneath. The idea of something being inside me hadn’t even crossed my mind. If anything, I figured we’d use the front, not the back….While I remained speechless, the cool lotion spread over my skin in an instant. One of his long fingers circled the sensitive area like a snake seeking its prey.“Besides, you’re more flexible than I am. I only know how to shoot baskets, so I can’t really spread my legs.”His reasoning was flimsy, clearly never intending to switch roles, but I had no time to argue. A slick finger slid inside, splitting the tight flesh. I instinctively grabbed Kwon Jungwoo’s wrist.“Ugh! It feels weird….”“Relax. I’m just doing this so it won’t hurt.”“Aah… ugh…!”“Wow… you’re so soft here. It’s unreal.”He pressed and stretched the tight muscles with his finger, trying to loosen me up. The fact that his perfectly clean fingers were now inside me was unbelievable. A mix of embarrassment and discomfort washed over me. I looked up at Kwon Jungwoo, only to see his face suddenly flush as he watched me.“…What’s with that expression? You look so damn sexy.”He quickly ducked his head, hiding his reddened face by biting down on my neck.His lips slid down slowly, stopping just over my pounding heart. Once he found a small nipple, he began sucking on it persistently, his tongue rolling it between his lips while his warm breath tickled my skin. His thick hair fell across my chest as he moved.All the while, his fingers kept working inside me, expanding the unfamiliar space. Thanks to his gentle touches and caresses, I began to feel a bit less tense, but the strange sensation remained.Okay. If the person who loves more is the one who sacrifices, then it made sense for me to be the one on the bottom. If this level of sacrifice could help our relationship, I was willing to endure it. Besides, I couldn’t imagine putting someone as big as Kwon Jungwoo underneath me….Surrendering to the situation, I exhaled heavily and reached up to stroke his hair and the rim of his ear.“Haa, Jungwoo… How do you know how to do this? They don’t teach this in videos…”“You told me, remember?”“I did?”“You said when it’s between guys, you just do it instinctively. So that’s what I’m doing.”Kwon Jungwoo flashed a smile before sliding another finger inside the tight space. The pressure was overwhelming, and I shifted my hips, prompting him to lift my legs onto his shoulders. With that, his fingers were able to reach deeper. Though panting heavily, he seemed almost too skilled. It made me suspicious, even though I knew it was unlikely.“Have you… ugh, done this with a guy before?”“Who knows?”“…Have you done it before?”“Are you counting dreams too?”As Kwon Jungwoo squeezed in a third finger, making the tight space feel even more strained, he whispered as if confessing.“Actually, this isn’t my first time with you.”“……”Even words that didn’t need to be kind were sweet when they came from Kwon Jungwoo. His long fingers moved busily, and whenever there was a pause, his lips gently pressed against my bare skin, making him seem shamelessly tender.As my body gradually loosened, accepting all three fingers, a wet sound echoed with each movement. The sensation mimicked actual intercourse, causing my half-erect member to stiffen more. Everything about the situation was so stimulating that when the fingers slipped out, I arched my back from the sudden emptiness.“Haah…”A groan escaped involuntarily, and Kwon Jungwoo furrowed his brow.“No, Jiwon, set your standards higher. This was just finger play, after all.”He removed his wristwatch and tossed it aside, picking up the condom box nearby. He tore open the package with his teeth and smoothly rolled the condom over the tip of his circumcised head without hesitation. His erect length was so large that the condom clung tightly, making the contours of his penis vividly apparent, almost as if it might tear from the strain. Even as someone who had never seen a condom in person, I could tell it didn’t quite fit.“If it hurts, tell me. I’ll stop.”“No, it’s… fine.”“Okay. Then I’ll just keep going, assuming it hurts a bit.”His playful tone made me laugh, even in this moment. Kwon Jungwoo smiled back, gently spreading my legs further as he positioned himself between them. As he lowered his body, I felt the weight of something blunt and hot press against the entrance that he had so diligently prepared with his fingers.“Remember, tell me if it hurts.”“Mm… Ugh!”Barely after I had responded, Kwon Jungwoo began to push inside. My tight entrance stretched around the heated flesh trying to invade it, slowly prying open the delicate space. I could feel my skin stretch taut, the surrounding area widening more with every inch.“Wait! It— it hurts, Jungwoo! Please, wait… Ah!”“Hah, can’t you wait until it’s all the way in before it starts to hurt? I’ve barely gotten the tip inside.”“It’s painful, ugh… it really hurts….”Kwon Jungwoo leaned down and kissed me softly. His soft tongue soothed me as it slipped between my lips, distracting me from the pain. I responded eagerly to the kiss, as if I had found a lifesaver amidst the discomfort. While he continued kissing me, Kwon Jungwoo gently brushed my hair aside and stroked it tenderly.Once he sensed that I had calmed down, Kwon Jungwoo attempted to move deeper inside again. Compared to his three fingers, the intense sensation was overwhelming. I gripped his forearm tightly, unable to bear it, and pulled him into an embrace. Everywhere my hands touched, his muscles rippled beneath my fingers.“Should I stop?”He whispered close to my ear.It wasn’t even halfway in yet. Stopping here seemed unfair to Kwon Jungwoo, but the pain was overwhelming. I was torn between wanting to ask him to stop and feeling guilty about it.“J-Jungwoo, ugh… I think I need a little more practice. I’ll, I’ll try to research this on my own, so maybe we can stop for now…”“Practice?”Kwon Jungwoo chuckled after my response, his deep-set eyes watching me with amusement.“Well, that works out perfectly. I think I could use some practice too. So let’s practice together today.”His face was smiling, but his tone was cold. I worried that I had said something wrong. Even amid the pain, I felt nervous, so I looked up at him, only to have Kwon Jungwoo softly caress my brow.“It’s not every day you get to practice with something this big, right?”“J-Jungwoo….”“Feel free to bite or scratch me if you need to. Do whatever you want. I’m going to do the same.”His words sounded like a declaration of war, and though I tried to shake my head, it was interrupted by Kwon Jungwoo’s kiss. For someone who threatened to be rough, his kisses were surprisingly gentle, and with each twist of our tongues, the pain seemed to dull. He knew exactly how to use his tongue, and during these moments, he took the opportunity to push deeper inside me. Despite his earlier warning, he wasn’t rushing. Instead, his touches and kisses became even more meticulous.Eventually, Kwon Jungwoo fully inserted his penis. His abdomen pressed against my spread cheeks. The sensation of fullness overwhelmed me, almost flooding me with emotion.“Ah… It’s so soft. I want to move, Jiwon.”“Ugh… Jungwoo…. Ugh….”“Hah. Let me see your face.”He removed my hands, which I had been using to cover my face in embarrassment. Being completely impaled on him, unable to hide my expression, made me feel so ashamed. I must have been crying without realizing it because when I blinked, tears trickled down the side of my temple.“It hurts… so much…”“……”“You’re too big… it hurts, Jungwoo.”The faint words barely escaped my lips. Hearing this, Kwon Jungwoo, who had been watching quietly, suddenly blushed deeply. His expression was a mixture of embarrassment and tension.“…What should I do? I think I might have a kink.”“It hurts….”“Jiwon, I’m really sorry, but… can you cry just a little more?”His tender request was so absurd that I was about to say something. Just then, the fullness inside me began to move slowly. Though not as painful as the initial entry, it still burned with an intensity that made me feel like I was being torn apart.“Ah, it hurts! Don’t move, ugh!”“Hah, I’m going to keep moving, so relax.”As his penis, thick as my forearm, moved, my insides clenched, then stretched, over and over. Because of the lotion he had applied, everything was slick and sticky, so I began to understand what he meant by ‘soft.’ But the sensation of my body splitting apart left no room for pleasure just yet.The muscles below me, stretched tight, made a squelching sound, as if pleading for mercy.“It hurts, Jungwoo. It hurts.”“Hah, so do you hate it?”“Hate… ugh, no… but, ah!”“Touch here.”While he moved slowly, Kwon Jungwoo guided my hand to the place where we were connected. Through my fingertips, I could feel his thick and massive length moving in and out of the place that had stretched far too wide. As I felt around below, Kwon Jungwoo’s gaze remained fixed on my face.“How does it feel to lose your virginity, Jiwon?”“Ugh, don’t… say things like that… ah.”The throbbing ache spread through my pelvis, making it impossible to open my eyes. I was aroused but felt no real pleasure yet, leading me to think that sex between men was inherently one-sided, filled with discomfort.Kwon Jungwoo must’ve found my hand in the way because he moved it away from our point of connection. Then, he grasped my limp member and began to stroke it. Despite the pain, my body responded to the touch, quickly becoming hard again, as if it was the easiest thing in the world.“Hah, it’s so big and pretty… such a shame it’s just hanging there.”“…Ugh…!”“Tell it I’ll make sure to give it plenty of love.”By the time I had finally adjusted somewhat to the steady and persistent motion of his thrusts, Kwon Jungwoo seemed to notice and increased his pace. His enormous length, which had only been probing shallowly, now began to plunge deeper, and I couldn’t hold back a new round of moans. With the force of his basketball player’s body pushing into me, I found myself helplessly rocked across the bed.Even as he continued stroking my hardened member, his other hand gripped my shoulder tightly, then moved to trace my ribs.As always, I could feel Kwon Jungwoo’s incredible strength in his grip. Everywhere he held me, a dull ache lingered, but the way his fingers gently teased my sensitive nipples was surprisingly delicate. His thrusts continued unabated as he pinched my swollen nipples, all while watching my embarrassed face intently. I couldn’t stop the moans from spilling out.At some point, a strange sensation began to take over, making me feel restless.Was it because Kwon Jungwoo’s penis kept rubbing against something deep inside me? Though there was no real reason to be anxious, an inexplicable itch spread throughout my body, making me feel like I was being chased by something. This strange feeling intensified rapidly, and I couldn’t deny anymore that it was a form of pleasure.Could this really be happening? Was it because I was born gay?It felt like the scales between pain and pleasure were finally balancing within me. My head was spinning from the confusion, but Kwon Jungwoo didn’t give me a moment’s respite. Just when I was starting to get used to it, he lifted my legs over his shoulders and moved in even closer. I could feel his solid length pushing in all the way to the root, even without looking.“Come to think of it, Jiwon… hah… didn’t you say you’re the type to date with marriage in mind? What should we do? I always planned on marrying late.”“Ugh, mm…!”“I’ll have to think that over.”Despite his teasing words, Kwon Jungwoo didn’t slow down. If anything, he sped up, relentlessly pushing me without any escape.My body folded almost in half, making every sensation feel twice as sharp. Just thinking about his large, soft head brushing against the deepest parts of me made my chest tighten with excitement. My own cock, standing fully erect, twitched with every one of his thrusts.From his close position above me, Kwon Jungwoo seemed to notice my rising arousal. He zeroed in on a particular spot, focusing his thrusts there with a strange expression on his face.“Hah, you like it here?”“Ugh, no, it feels… weird… ah!”“Don’t lie. Your abs are tensing, showing off your muscles.”When Kwon Jungwoo thrust his penis deep inside, my hips jolted. What had initially been just a tickling sensation turned into a desperate ache, and my chest began to feel full.Why am I like this? A strange pleasure, as if my body were malfunctioning, made me feel afraid. The sounds escaping my mouth gradually shifted from groans of pain to gasping moans. Clear fluid dripped down my abdomen, making it glisten.“Ugh, ngh! Haah… It’s… driving me crazy… Ngh, something’s… wrong.”Even though I begged as my body writhed in a pleasure that was entirely different from when I had pleasured myself before, Kwon Jungwoo didn’t stop. The rough and rapid thrusts echoed through the officetel, the sound of our bodies colliding filled the room, and my sock-clad feet shook on his shoulders.I couldn’t ignore the persistent sensation that felt like I needed to pee. Anxiety gnawed at me, worrying that I might embarrass myself in front of Kwon Jungwoo.As he continued his relentless thrusts, Kwon Jungwoo turned his head and kissed the area near my knee. His lips followed down my calf, stopping around my ankle. His tongue traced the line where my socks ended.“Careful with your ankle.”His gentle voice slipped between my gasping moans. Whether it was because of the tickling on my ankle or the deep thrusts of his penis, my orgasm rushed forward uncontrollably. At last, white fluid spurted from the trembling tip of my penis, staining my sweat-slick chest with streaks of white.The shame of being drenched in my own semen overwhelmed me in front of Kwon Jungwoo.“Hngh… Haah… Aah…”“Oh. Is this your sensitive spot? I’ll have to be more careful, then.”His voice was casual, as if he had just discovered something amusing.Kwon Jungwoo kissed my ankle gently, then pulled both my feet together and leaned my knees toward my chest. Now my body was almost folded in half. I could even see his penis moving in and out of me.The fluid pooled on my chest spilled to the side, soaking into the bedsheets. Kwon Jungwoo looked down at me with a smirk.“You’re really flexible.”Despite his own aroused expression, Kwon Jungwoo still seemed as steady as ever. Even after a full match, his stamina was unbelievable. Meanwhile, I struggled to catch my breath, my chest rising and falling dramatically. After all, I used to be a national athlete too.“Jungwoo… Haah, I’m too tired… Ngh, ugh…”My words dissolved into moans as Kwon Jungwoo thrust deeply into me once again. The tight walls of my body were stretched wide by him, then clenched around him repeatedly. My delicate insides were mercilessly stimulated, making my hips shake uncontrollably.“Ugh, ngh, ahh… Kwon Jungwoo… Ngh! Ugh.”“Haah, yeah. I like you too.”“Hngh, ahh…!”I was so lost in my arousal that I didn’t even realize how embarrassingly loud my moans were. Kwon Jungwoo pinned my legs down and continued his intense pace, while I was swept up in the heat, barely able to keep my eyes open. My entire body felt like it was bursting with sensation.Kwon Jungwoo focused on rubbing one particular spot with relentless speed. The thick head of his penis and the texture of his veins pressed into my tender flesh, becoming increasingly vivid with every thrust.Through my blurred vision, I could make out Kwon Jungwoo’s flushed face, the crease between his furrowed brows making him look all the more seductive. Without missing a beat, he swept my damp bangs aside. Every touch was slick with sweat.“Han Jiwon.”“Hngh… Ngh, hngh…”“Haah, Jiwon-ah. Han Jiwon.”He repeated my name several times, then sealed his lips over mine. His teeth gently grazed my lips before parting, allowing his tongue to slide in. The softness of his kiss combined with the desperate excitement surging from below made my heart feel like it would burst. The overwhelming sensation of needing to pee and the feeling that I’d reached my limit made me feel like crying.Just as Kwon Jungwoo thrust his penis deeply into me, he let out a short moan. Our lips separated slightly, leaving a wet trail as we caught our breath.“Haah, haah…”“Hngh… Aah…”I could feel Kwon Jungwoo’s cock twitching inside me, signaling that he was about to cum. At the same time, I released yet another spurt of semen. It splashed up, coating both our chests with warmth.Even as he climaxed, Kwon Jungwoo’s eyes stayed on me. His flushed, lustful gaze was captivating.“I can’t stop wanting to confess… I think I’m way too into you.”“Haah… Haah…”“You have to take responsibility, Jiwon. This is all your fault.”I like you.With that sweet confession, he kissed me briefly. As he finished cumming, he pulled his hard penis out of my body. I shuddered as the condom, filled with warm semen, slid out with it.On the bed, we tightly embraced each other’s naked bodies. The lingering sensation still hadn’t faded, and our chests continued to rise and fall rapidly as we remained pressed together.“Why are you so beautiful?”“That tickles.”Kwon Jungwoo kept caressing my skin, now damp with bodily fluids, making me feel awkward. But eventually, I shyly began to trace my hand along his skin too.It was amazing how, despite all the movement, aside from his face and collarbone, he wasn’t sweating much. Meanwhile, I, who had just been on the receiving end, was drenched in sweat.“Did it hurt a lot?”“Do you want the honest answer?”“Honestly.”With me still trapped in his arms, Kwon Jungwoo asked gently. Even though our bare skin was touching like this, it still didn’t feel real that we had been so intimate.“It did hurt… but there was pleasure too.”“Was it only as good as the pain? It should have been better than the pain.”Kwon Jungwoo lifted his upper body with a slightly disappointed expression. His face made me feel a little sad, so I ended up saying things I hadn’t intended to.“The truth is… I kept feeling like I needed to go to the bathroom, and it kept distracting me. Is that feeling normal?”“What kind of feeling?”“I just… felt like I was going to pee…”I regretted bringing it up almost immediately. My voice grew faint as I spoke, and Kwon Jungwoo burst into laughter. His hair, except for the sweat-soaked bangs, fell messily around his face.“That’s not pee.”“No, I felt it in the front.”“It’s not urine…”Kwon Jungwoo started to say something, then stopped himself, clearing his throat with a shy smile still on his face.“Anyway, next time, don’t hold back.”Not hold back from the urge to pee…? Was that his preference or something?I stared blankly at him, feeling like I’d just heard an unexpected confession. Kwon Jungwoo then whispered playfully, “Actually, I should say from now on.”Without warning, Kwon Jungwoo pressed a finger firmly into the narrow space between my buttocks. The area, still tender, began to open up again, making my hips jerk up involuntarily. He even gently stroked the inside, causing my sensitive inner muscles to tighten reflexively.“Ngh, wait a sec… I still feel…”“We said we’d practice, didn’t we? Practice doesn’t end after just one try.”I must have made a mistake earlier, mentioning practice. It suddenly dawned on me that Kwon Jungwoo had a reputation for being a relentless practice addict, and the realization sent a chill down my spine.“I don’t think I need any more practice.”“Oh, is it different for someone who used to be a national athlete? But, well, I’m just an ordinary guy.”“Ngh…!”“Then, Jiwon-ah, can I borrow this for a bit to practice my moves?”Without waiting for an answer, Kwon Jungwoo pulled my legs toward him, dragging me to the edge of the bed as he stood on the floor. He wedged himself deeply between my legs and kissed me again. My lips, which had been sucked and bitten countless times already, were sure to be swollen by morning.While we kissed, he must have torn open a condom wrapper because, in no time, the round condom was already on his penis. Instead of applying lotion to his hands, he squeezed it directly onto me. The sensation of the liquid sliding down from my balls to my butt crack sent a shiver through me. The thick head of his penis pressed against the now-slick entrance.“Acting like you don’t want it, but welcoming me like this?”“I-I never said… Ngh…!”I tried to protest, but my words were cut off as that hard thing forced its way into the narrow space. Though it entered more easily than before, it was still overwhelming to take in all of his large penis. My head tilted back as a groan escaped, and Kwon Jungwoo, his face flushed with arousal, let out a low curse.“Haah, it’s so soft… I can’t get used to it.”“Ngh…!”“Did I ever tell you? I love how you smell.”While keeping himself fully inside me, Kwon Jungwoo pressed his lips to my neck, inhaling deeply as if savoring my scent, before biting down hard enough to sting. His soft hair brushed against my chin, tickling me.“You seem like you’re just lying still… but why am I going crazy over you?”There wasn’t a trace of laughter in his calm confession. He kissed me all over my face like a gentle bombardment, and I could only tightly embrace his broad back. Although Kwon Jungwoo had confessed his feelings to me several times before, this time it felt especially vivid, making my chest warm.At the same time, a sense of unease crept in.I was scared because I liked Kwon Jungwoo so much. Could I avoid becoming obsessed with such a lovable man? Kwon Jungwoo, always shining brightly, felt like someone far too good for me. Wouldn’t he eventually tire of me, who was clearly not as good as him?But I couldn’t continue that train of thought because Kwon Jungwoo, using the excuse of “practice,” wouldn’t let go of me, not just in bed, but even on the floor and on the couch, thrusting his penis into me. I was left gasping for breath, barely able to keep up with his relentless energy, despite him having worked out all morning.It was only when my voice, hoarse from pleading for a break, cracked that Kwon Jungwoo finally let me go, albeit reluctantly.I lost count of how many times I’d climaxed by then. At first, I thought I was the one making the sacrifice by lying beneath him, but the more we intertwined, the more it felt like a privilege rather than a sacrifice. Kwon Jungwoo had put so much effort into me, and I responded by reaching the peak time and time again.Exhausted, it felt like all the moisture in my body had been drained out, and I eventually drifted off to sleep. At some point, Kwon Jungwoo gently woke me by stroking my face.“Jiwon-ah. Han Jiwon.”“Mm…”The sound of my response was weak, even to my own ears, as I struggled to open my eyes and look at him. Kwon Jungwoo smiled.“Sleep well.”Then, as if he couldn’t be happier, he hugged me tightly.I must have laughed despite my exhaustion, feeling incredulous that he’d woken me up when I was already sleeping well. And just before I passed out again, I made a silent vow: I had to do my best. Even though Kwon Jungwoo held the power in our relationship, the final outcome could be influenced by my own efforts.I didn’t want to lose the person who had introduced me to this new world… not again.In any case, I’d already gotten myself into this, so I needed to put in the effort. That’s why, for the first time, I decided to give up on giving up.***I’m no longer a virgin. I’m a fully-fledged 22-year-old man with a proper boyfriend.And not just any boyfriend—my boyfriend is Kwon Jungwoo, the rising star of the basketball world, with limitless stamina that doesn’t falter even after an intense weekend together.Though it felt like I might die from having to keep up with him, fortunately, I still had some remnants of the stamina I’d built during my own past athletic days, allowing me to at least make it to school.Kwon Jungwoo went to the gym early in the morning. No matter how much of an active athlete he was, his stamina was just absurd. After everything he put me through yesterday, lifting me, pushing me… all that.I was in the middle of blushing with a smug sense of superiority, feeling like I’d finally become a true adult, when I got a call from Byun Seungjin. As I instinctively brought my phone to my ear, I was startled by the large face displayed on the screen.“Oh, is this a video call?”— Hey hey! My best friend! Where are you? Where?“Actually, I’m on my way to the basketball court right now. I’ve got some business with Jungwoo… just left the student union.”— What? What? Perfect timing! Come quick! My sister got us a coffee truck, and we’re all drinking it up.Byun Seungjin, who had been in the middle of studying English for his upcoming exams, moved his phone to show me the surroundings. In front of the basketball court stood a small truck, surrounded by the team members.The place was only a three-minute walk from where I was.“Your sister got you a coffee truck…? Seungjin, is it your birthday today?”— No no no, she just passed the announcer recruitment exam and treated everyone! Success!

Sucksess



[1]


Over here, he was just shouting Success in the english pronounciation, repeat it enough time, it sounds like sex :))

! Suxsex!…Sex?My heart dropped at the word. Could he possibly know what happened over the weekend?Luckily, it seemed he was just practicing pronunciation, as Byun Seungjin went on loudly reciting words that only elementary school kids would memorize.Behind him, I saw a familiar face. Kwon Jungwoo, holding a coffee cup and straw in his mouth, glanced over at Byun Seungjin in mild exasperation, then his eyes inadvertently met the camera. Even through the phone screen, I could clearly see his expression soften as he noticed me. He approached closer.— Han Jiwon? Where are you right now?Even though he hadn’t actually come closer, the sight of his large face on the screen made my heart race, reminding me of its presence. Despite spending the whole weekend skin-to-skin with him, just seeing his face made me flutter.I tried to suppress the foolish smile tugging at my lips.“I’m on my way to the gym. I should be there soon.”— I’ll come meet you, wait for me.Before he even finished speaking, Kwon Jungwoo disappeared from the screen. Only Byun Seungjin, gesturing exaggeratedly like he couldn’t believe it, remained visible.— He’s meeting you when you’re just around the corner?— What if you get lost? That would be a disaster.— What? Seriously?“Seungjin, I’ll see you soon.”Seizing the moment when Byun Seungjin looked away, I quickly hung up.From a distance, I could already see a tall man walking toward me. He was dressed in a navy-blue basketball uniform, holding a coffee in one hand. As he drew closer, his broad shoulders gleamed under the sunlight.“You must be tired from walking. Do your legs hurt? Want me to carry you?”Kwon Jungwoo asked with affectionate eyes, raising his eyebrows in a way that made him look like a character straight out of a youth comic. The fact that this man was my boyfriend… it still felt unbelievable. But then, when I saw the way he looked at me, it was impossible not to believe.I waved my hand, conscious of the students walking by, and only then did Kwon Jungwoo laugh, saying it was a joke. As if it was just a joke.“Want some?”Small droplets had formed on the surface of the disposable coffee cup he handed to me. The cold drops trembled and slid onto Kwon Jungwoo’s hand. I wasn’t actually thirsty; I just thought his hand might be cold, so I intended to hold it for him.Just as I was about to take the cup, Kwon Jungwoo suddenly grabbed my hand with his free hand. Startled, I tried to pull it back, but he only gripped it tighter.“Come on, let’s go ask for a fresh one.”“Jungwoo, people are watching.”“It’s fine. Holding hands won’t make it obvious we had sex.”“…”He tugged me along, pretending to hurry, while still holding my hand. Students passing by smiled, but their reactions were casual, nothing out of the ordinary.It was only when we reached the front of the basketball court that Kwon Jungwoo let go of my hand. As Byun Seungjin approached, Kwon Jungwoo leaned in and whispered softly, so only I could hear.“I want to kiss you.”His eyes, looking down at me, were filled with desire. It seemed the weekend’s lingering memories still hadn’t left him.“Not at school…”“You haven’t forgotten where we had our first kiss, have you?”“…”“Just a quick one. So brief that you’d wonder if it even happened. I haven’t kissed you today, and I’m losing energy because of it.”Kwon Jungwoo pouted, his drooping eyes pleading in a way that was so cute, it made me smirk without realizing it. Usually, he was straightforward and shameless, but right now, he looked like a small animal with perked-up ears. He wasn’t soft enough to be a puppy, but calling him a wolf cub didn’t quite fit either, given his size.Ah, he was a wolf pretending to be a cub.That’s how Kwon Jungwoo felt.“Hm?”Kwon Jungwoo raised his eyebrows playfully, urging me. He seemed to have forgotten how he had kissed me so fiercely in the car on our way to school, practically swallowing me whole. He’d also seen me clutching my bag all the way from the parking lot to the student building to hide the fact that I was aroused.Just as I was at a loss for words, Byun Seungjin approached us, holding a coffee.“What are you doing? Come on, if you brought him, you should offer him a drink! Jiwon likes iced americanos, right? I figured, so I ordered one ahead.”“Oh, thanks. Now I don’t have to wait.”Grateful for the distraction, I took the coffee from him. Byun Seungjin smiled warmly at me before turning to Kwon Jungwoo with a mischievous grin, his upper lip curling up.“Kwon Jungwoo, no matter how hard you try, you can’t beat an original fan. And by original fan, I mean…”Byun Seungjin pointed to his chest with his thumb.“It’s me.”He laughed as if he was thoroughly enjoying himself, unaware of the sharp smile that crossed Kwon Jungwoo’s face.“What’s wrong, Seungjin? Jealous?”“Of what?”“Of me dating Han Jiwon…”I quickly shoved a straw into Kwon Jungwoo’s mouth before he could finish the sentence. He scowled, trying to spit it out, but I held it there, forcing him to take a sip. Then I turned to Byun Seungjin, trying my best to keep the conversation going.“You really resemble your older sister a lot, Seungjin. Your whole family must be good-looking. Your parents must be proud. Your sister’s good at studying, and you’re great at sports, so I bet they don’t have much to worry about. I guess being kind runs in the family too?”“Huh? Oh, yeah. I guess so. Our family’s got a bit of a mix of good looks and brains, you know? It’s probably written in our genealogy somewhere. The Byun genes seem to be top-tier. DNA.”Byun Seungjin, fortunately, was weak to compliments and lacked some self-awareness. While he rambled on about his sister, Kwon Jungwoo and I exchanged glances several times.Jungwoo, you’re crazy.I said this with my eyes, and Kwon Jungwoo just shrugged with a straw in his mouth.According to Byun Seungjin, his sister could be fiery and intimidating at times, but she was also proud of her accomplishments and would occasionally treat everyone to a meal because of it.True to form, there were banners hung all over the coffee truck with a simple message: “My sister passed.” The image of a woman who looked like Byun Seungjin was displayed everywhere. She wasn’t just bold; she was stunningly beautiful. Given that she had passed the competitive announcer exam, it was quite impressive.“By the way, where’s Eunoh? I don’t see him.”“That idiot downed three iced Americanos in one go and went to the bathroom. If you want to see the fate of a freeloading jerk who loves freebies, go take a look. He’s probably going bald as we speak.”I had only asked because Yang Eunoh was missing, but that opened the floodgates to a stream of insults. There was even a prediction that Eunoh would return shortly for more drinks.While Seungjin’s rant dragged on, filled with some kind of love-hate energy, Kwon Jungwoo kept giving me signals. It was a continuation of the topic he had dropped earlier. Standing next to Seungjin where only I could see, he kept pouting and grumbling silently. The wolf pretending to be a cub looked like he’d cry if I didn’t kiss him soon.Eventually, the man towering nearly two meters tall managed to draw a nod of approval from me, tugging at my protective instincts like a child. After all, the reason I’d come here in the first place was to kiss him.As soon as I gave him the go-ahead, Kwon Jungwoo finished the rest of his drink. It took mere seconds for him to toss the empty cup into a nearby trash can.“We don’t have much time, let’s go.”“Where are you two going?”Seungjin asked, sucking on his straw.I was worried Kwon Jungwoo might say the truth, but fortunately, my fears didn’t materialize.“To the locker room.”“The locker room? Why?”“There’s something we need to exchange.”He tilted his head toward me, looking for confirmation with a smirk. The shamelessness of calling a kiss “something to exchange” must have been ingrained in his nature. Trying not to show my embarrassment, I nodded.Seungjin let out a meaningless “Ah,” as he continued sipping his drink. I couldn’t tell if he wanted to come along or had lost interest.…Or maybe he wanted to join us but was too shy to ask.I realized, not for the first time, that I had a personality flaw. It felt awkward to just leave Seungjin behind like this. After all, he’d treated us to coffee, so it felt heartless to say, “Alright, we’ll be going now,” and just leave. It weighed on my conscience.If Kwon Jungwoo’s nature was to be shameless, then mine was to be overly considerate of others.“Hey… if you’re bored, do you want to come with us?”As soon as I asked, Kwon Jungwoo slung an arm over my shoulders and whispered affectionately, What are you saying, Jiwon?Thankfully, Seungjin’s response was firm.“No. I have to wait for Eunoh. That idiot will definitely come back for more. He has no idea how dangerous caffeine can be for an athlete.”“We’re going.”“Yeah, sure.”Saying goodbye to Seungjin was as simple as a single sentence from Kwon Jungwoo. He led me toward the basketball court, his arm still draped over my shoulder. His expression was as playful as ever.“Too bad, Jiwon. We’ll save that kiss for next time.”Just as I blushed in embarrassment, I heard Yang Eunoh’s voice behind me. He was calmly ordering another drink, followed by some colorful swearing.***I’d been to the locker room a few days earlier. Well, I’d only waited outside for Byun Seungjin, but I’d managed to catch a glimpse of the inside.The locker room was empty, making the white lockers look particularly tidy. A few pieces of clothing were hanging out of some lockers, but it wasn’t anything too messy.“I guess I had a preconceived notion. This is a team locker room, but it’s cleaner than I expected. …Is this your spot?”I recognized it by the jersey with the number 17. His neat personality showed in how his shoes were carefully placed under the uniform.
