"Hakyeon-ah" Taekwoon called the tanned man with his usual soft voice. Hakyeon ignored him and keep focusing on the screen instead. He's too focused on the drama played on his ipad. He's watching it before Taekwoon went to shower and still watching when Taekwoon all ready to sleep. "Hakyeonnnn" he tried again, this time sounded a little desperate. But it didn't work.

 

He scooted closer to the man and hugged Hakyeon body from behind, leaving kisses on Hakyeon's neck. "Let's do it. I miss you" he captured Hakyeon's hand and leads it to his groin. "I'm hard. See?"

 

Hakyeon hummed, he still didn't turn his back. He patted the groin softly making Taekwoon moans in his ears. "Wait, let me finish this drama first. It's the last episode" Hakyeon replied half-heartedly.

 

 "Okay"Taekwoon sighed but he hugged the tanned skin man while waiting.

 

Hakyeon continued watching the drama with Taekwoon literally glued to him. He focused but he lose his focus when he felt Taekwoon rubbing his groin to Hakyeon's . Taekwoon moans softly and kisses Hakyeon everywhere; his jaw, neck and his ears, particularly on Hakyeon's sensitive area.

 

Hakyeon groaned. He wanted to finish this but with Taekwoon bothering like him, he could not. Guess he'd continue watching it tomorrow. He turned his ipad off and finally turned his body to face Taekwoon. Taekwoon smiled brightly at him. "You're done?!" He swear it wanted to punch Taekwoon in the face.

 

"No!" He answered annoyingly. "You're disturbing me and I can't focus anymore!" Hakyeon pulled Taekwoon's body to his and they starts kissing. "You're unbelievable, I'm on the last episode you know!" Hakyeon complains between the kisses.

 

Taekwoon couldn't help but smile in victory. He know Hakyeon can't resist him.

Taekwoon fall asleep while waiting for Hakyeon in the shower. After their heated activities both of them prefer to wash themselves before sleeping. It's more comfortable that way. They could save their times by washing together but they both know, there's no washing done if they both in the bathroom. Taekwoon could never resist himself when he look at Hakyeon's y body. So he let Hakyeon wash first and he'll wash after or vice versa.

 

Hakyeon smiled warmly when he saw Taekwoon already sleeping on the bed. Is he that tired? He patted Taekwoon's hair lovingly. He tried to wake the man up but he seemed unbothered. Maybe Taekwoon is really tired today.

 

"What to do Taekwoon-ah?" Hakyeon whispered, more to himself. He squatted next to the bed, caressing Taekwoon's cheeks. 

 

It's been two years since they started to know each other and four months since they started become buddies. It all started when Hyuk invited Hakyeon to his housewarming party. He went there and met Taekwoon who was Hyuk's University senior. Hakyeon somehow felt comfortable talking with the man, they clicked and constantly hangout together after the party.

 

Not like a lover, they are more like friends. They always keep updates of each other and sometimes went to the club to release tension together. Their friendship when further and Hakyeon suggested them to be buddies. They both were single and ually frustrated. There's no wrong in doing that and both side gets what they want. It's a win win situation.

 

Hakyeon regretted his decision to become Taekwoon's buddy. He love the man more than a friend should."I think I love you. More than what we agreed to." he said, suddenly feeling sad knowing that he had break the rules that they have between them.

 

Rule 1 : Friends with benefits only each other.

Rule 2 : There's no feeling attached

 

"I broke the rules Taekwoon. What to do?" Hakyeon sighed. "I love you. I don't even have the courage to say this when you're conscious. I'm a coward" He stands up, switched the lights off before laying down next to Taekwoon on the bed and hugging himself to sleep.

"Why are you guys leaving the house together?" Hakyeon's neighbour, Jaehwan asked when he saw Hakyeon and Taekwoon walked out of Hakyeon's house together. Taekwoon holds Hakyeon's bag while the latter busy locking his door. "No, don't answer that. What the heck Taekwoon did in your house, in the first place?" He asked again directing at Hakyeon with a dramatic gasped.

 

"Mind your own business Jae" Hakyeon brushed him off. He's still working on his stupid door. He's been reminding himself to get the door fix these past few days but he kept forgetting it.

 

Jaehwan rolled his eyes. As a good neighbor, Hakyeon's business is his. So he have the right to know. "You guys are together?"  he half-whispered to Taekwoon.

 

"Nope" Taekwoon answered with his usual poker face. Jaehwan pouted at his two hyungs.

 

After a few seconds Hakyeon finally succeed locking his door. He took his bag and pulled Taekwoon to walk. "Finally!! Let's go. We're gonna be late"

 

He walked passed Jaehwan, completely ignoring the latter. After walking a few steps he suddenly got an idea. He turns around and walked back to Jaehwan. "We're buddies" he whispered. He gave Jaehwan a seductive wink and left Jaehwan in shock, mouth open making 'O' shape.

 

••

 

"So you guys are buddies now?" Wonshik asked casually before sipping his beer. He went back home today to Jaehwan gossiping about their neighbor. Jaehwan told him to talk to Taekwoon, he's afraid that Taekwoon and Hakyeon wouldn't end in a good way. buddies usually end with one of them getting hurt and Jaehwan don't want to see Taekwoon or Hakyeon to get hurt in their little game.

 

 Taekwoon nodded. He knew that Jaehwan would not shut up once he knew about it. To be honest, he see this was coming. He gulped the beer that was served before him before continuing, " buddies sounds harsh. We're friends with benefits". He corrected the terms Wonshik used and smirked playfully.

 

Wonshik let out a sarcastic laugh and mutter an okay under his breath. 

 

"That's bull" Jaehwan butted in the conversation. He hit Wonshik's hand and glared his fiancee. "What do you mean by okay?"

 

"It's not okay, hyung" he said. "I don't want any of you to get hurt." He grabbed Taekwoon's hand, hoping that the latter would understand. He knew where this would end, one of them would fall in love with each other and ended up left broken hearted. He knew it too well.

 

"Honey they are adults" Wonshik reminds Jaehwan. Probably trying to tell Jaehwan that it's not his business and he can't get his nose into Hakyeon and Taekwoon's relationship. Whatever they are into, it's completely their decisions. They are both old enough to know what to do and whatnot.

 

Wonshik sighed and he changed the topic before it becomes more serious. "Where is Hakyeon hyung anyway?" He asked, looking at his watch. "He'll be here in fifteen minutes" Taekwoon answered  shortly.

 

"Jaehwan-ah" Taekwoon called Jaehwan who was sulking. "No one going to hurt, okay? I'll walk out before it happens. Besides we're cool. Both me and Hakyeon" he said truthfully. Hakyeon is his friend too, he wouldn't dare to hurt him.

 

"I don't want to see my dear hyung who's living next door gets hurt. If I find him crying because of you, I will not be hesitant to kill you" Jaehwan warns, glaring at the pale skinned man. Taekwoon chuckled. "I won't hurt him."

 

"Promise?"

 

"Promise"

 

"Well then" Jaehwan stands up. He push Wonshik's hand that's on his waist away from him. He totally not agree with this, but since Taekwoon had promised. "I'm going to sleep. I need to travel early tomorrow" he excused himself, leaving Taekwoon and Wonshik alone.

 

"I've been wondering hyung" Wonshik said, grabbing Taekwoon attention back to him. "It's not like you don't have the keys. You could just wait at Hakyeon's house instead of ours, you know?" he stated as matters-of-fact. They have been buddies or friends with benefits -that's the term Taekwoon insisted to use-, so they must have the keys to each other house. Right?

 

"Well, yes" Taekwoon agreeing. "But if I wait for him in his own house that would make us look like more than friends. We're just friends, you know?"

 

  ••

 

"Taekwoon?" Hakyeon called Taekwoon's name as he picked up his phone, noticing that the number ID is Taekwoon's. It's weird to see Taekwoon calling him on weekdays. They usually meet on weekends.

 

"What are you doing? You didn't reply my text!" Taekwoon asked. Hakyeon could imagine that the man is already pouting like a kid. He chuckled at Taekwoon's behavior. Lately Taekwoon been acting weird, he would text Hakyeon almost everyday. Sometimes he would call if Hakyeon failed to reply to his text.

 

"I'm working" Hakyeon replied. Taekwoon should have known that the only reason Hakyeon wouldn't reply to his text probably because he's busy with works. Who play with his phone during works anyway?

 

"It's lunchtime, Hakyeon" he heard Taekwoon sighed on the other line. Hakyeon frowned. Is it? It's only been one hour since he starts typing. He glance at the watch on his hand, finally noticing that it really is lunchtime. "Oh my god. I must been to focus writing that I lost track of the time"

 

"Yeah you are. You better come down now. I'm at the lobby" Taekwoon told him.

 

Seriously? "What are you doing here?" Hakyeon frowned, they didn't promise to have lunch together or anything. Yeah, they never had lunch together anyways. They usually meet during dinner, that is when Taekwoon sleeping at his house.

 

"We're having lunch together, silly. I have meeting with my client around this area" Taekwoon explained. Automatically Hakyeon smiled, feeling happy that Taekwoon did think of him. He saved his work and grab his wallet, walking out of his room. "I'll be there in 3 minutes"

"I don't know bin-ah" Hakyeon sighed as he flopped his body on his fluffy bed. Oh it feels so good. He groaned satisfyingly. It's been a long time since he get to lie down and just relax. These past few days has been really hectic, when he get home he would go straight to sleep, eyes closed automatically.

 

Thank god he finally finished what he's been working on, so he got to relax for a few days. "You should just confess to him. Man up hyung!!" He heard the voice from the phone said, bringing him back to reality. Oh yeah, talking about reality.

 

Hongbin keep telling him to just confess to Taekwoon, saying that he falling in love with Taekwoon has been really obvious that probably everyone had already know. Hongbin is exaggerating. Seriously, he is not that obvious.

 

He's feeling lonely now. It's Thursday, Taekwoon would come maybe tomorrow so he'll be sleeping alone tonight. It's not like he is not used to it, but it's nice to have another warmth on the bed. Sleeping with Taekwoon is magical, Taekwoon is unbelievably warm and it's so comfortable that Hakyeon wouldn't want to get out of his bed when they're together. He loves Taekwoon's body particularly his thigh. Taekwoon's strong thigh not just has give him millions of pleasure, but also has keep him sleeping soundly. Taekwoon would wrap Hakyeon's body with his in sleep like Hakyeon is his own pillow, making Hakyeon can feels his strong thigh on his leg. Hakyeon likes it, though he never really said it out loud.

 

"I'm just afraid. We were supposed to be buddies only, not lovers" Hakyeon explained. If he confess then he would broke the agreement has been made. Feeling was not in the agreement.

 

"Hyung" he heard Hongbin's voice turned soft. The tone Hongbin would use when he's dead serious. "Taekwoon is a great guy. I know he love you too."

One day feels like forever. Hakyeon grinned when he finally see the man he's been missing the whole week standing in front of him, with a wide smile. "Hi"

 

Taekwoon didn't even reply, he went straight to Hakyeon's lips and kissed the man hungrily. They kissed until both of them loose breath, finally pulling away. "I missed you" Taekwoon muttered under his breath. Hakyeon's heart skipped a beat, he nodded. He missed Taekwoon to, so damn much.

 

"Hakyeon" Taekwoon called the man after they were done with their hot session. They basically was just lying down, taking a break. Hakyeon wasn't sure if they're going for another round or they're going to sleep after this. But he's already tired. He almost closes his eyes when Taekwoon called his name.

 

"Hmmm?"

 

He heard how Taekwoon took a breath relaxingly. He turned his body to face Hakyeon fully, taking Hakyeon's hand until his hold. "I know we had an agreement about being buddies without feelings and stuffs. But..." Taekwoon paused, looking at Hakyeon's face.

 

Hakyeon stays silent focusing. What is Taekwoon trying to say?

 

" I love seeing your smiley face before I sleep and when I wake up. I love watching you focusing on your work, your passion. I love how your voice sounds when you ask me how was my day. I love hearing your stories about work or even anything. I love how your face lights up when you get to eat meats. I love seeing your face smiling at me. I love everything about you" Taekwoon continued, making Hakyeon flustered with the sudden confession.

 

"I.... Well, it. I love you" without waiting for a response he caught Hakyeon in his embrace to kiss the man. It's not the hungry kisses that they used to do, but the kiss to feel Hakyeon, to show that he really do love Hakyeon and it's not just about .

 

They finally pulled away after a while, Taekwoon stared at Hakyeon's golden eyes. If he's not wrong he could see the tiny smile formed on Hakyeon's face. "I... I" Hakyeon stuttered. He lose word with the sudden confession.

 

 He suddenly remember that they are . Well, obviously he didn't expect to receive a confession right after . "Wait, this isn't romantic at all. You should confess when we're in a better state!!" he complained playfully, beaming at the man.

 

Taekwoon chuckled. "Hey, at least I did confessed. If I wait for you to do it, it'll never happened". Truth be told, Taekwoon was not sleeping when Hakyeon confessed to him when he's sleeping. Knowing that Hakyeon love him too, he know that he should be the one confessing. "So?" he asked Hakyeon, waiting for a reply.

 

Hakyeon rolled his eyes before giving him a peck on the lips. "I love you too"

 

"Great now time for round two to celebrate our first day!!" Taekwoon exclaimed happily as he pulled Hakyeon on him.

"Oh you buddies had a great time last night?" Wonshik asked jokingly when he saw Taekwoon and Hakyeon outside of Hakyeon's house, all ready to go out.

 

"Good morning to you too" Hakyeon flashed him a smile. Oh. Hakyeon hyung must be in a good mood. Wonshik thought. He would probably get a neck chopped if he's in his usual mood.

 

Hakyeon and Taekwoon almost walked away before Hakyeon remembered something. He looked at Wonshik meaningfully "Not anymore".

 

"huh?" Wonshik asked in confusion. Not anymore what?

 

Hakyeon pulled Taekwoon next to him, standing in front of Wonshik. "This is my boyfriend, Taekwoon" he said with pride.
