Soul enters Shin’s cabin. But this time he is excited as he’s going to see the CEO after a long break. As he reaches out to Mr. Shin, he briefs the official matter as usually as he does. “So this is your schedule for today.” Soul says as he ends his briefing. “Ok. You can go now.” Shin replies in his regular tone like he wasn’t being goofy at Soul’s place a couple of days ago. Just before Soul was leaving the cabin, he stops at the doorway and says,

“I forgot to thank you.”

Shin raises one of his eyebrows and replies in a hoarse voice, “For what?”

“I’ve never had such tasty breakfast.” Soul sends a big, pretty smile and leaves, making his CEO become a blushing mess all alone.

Later at the condo, Soul keeps on staring at the blue while stroking Nano when all of a sudden he just screams, “Ugh! Why can’t I stop thinking about Him? I know what I’m feeling but should I really-” His mobile rings between his speech, “-speaking of the devil!” He rolls his eyes but proceeds to pick the call up,

“Yes sir!”

“I’m having a business get together at our pub. You need to tag along.” Shin says it all really casually.

“But I’m not comfortable-”

Shin won’t let Soul finish his words, “Shut up and listen. Come to my place at 5 in the afternoon and help me get ready for the party.” Thus he literally orders his secretary and cuts off the call, making Soul look all dumbfound.

Next day, the obedient secretary, Kim Soul reaches in front of the Parks’ place or we can say the mansion. He has no choice but to go with the CEO but how he’s supposed to enter in this freaking mansion. His thoughts get untangled when a guard approaches him and asks,

“Are you Park Shin’s secretary?” With Soul’s confirmation the guard again speaks, “He asked me to bring you to his room. Please follow me.”

Soul just obeys him and follows him through the whole mansion till they reached in front of a room. The door opened at once Soul knocks on it. Looks like someone was waiting just to open the door.

It’s none other than the room’s owner or we can say the heir of this mansion, Park Shin. As Shin opens the door, his eyes landed on Soul. Even if he looks a little nervous, he has pulled a look that is making him party ready. Soul’s hair is all set, the cherry red lips are looking like a candy, making Shin doubt whether they’re sweet or not, the eyeliner is sharper this time which is making Soul’s eyes look fierce and his cheeks are shining probably for the highlighter he has put on. The belly button peeking through the crop top is just a chef’s kiss for Soul. Shin admires Soul while he himself looks like a homeless person in his own mansion. He says nothing and grabs Soul by his wrist and pulls him inside his room while closing the door.

“Hurry up and help me dress up!” Shin gets the audacity to say this with a ruffled hair, wearing an oversized t-shirt and a track pant. All Soul can do is to send Shin a side eye but soon gets invested in dressing Mr. Shin. After all this is something that Soul really likes to do.

“Can I check your wardrobe?”

“Do whatever you want.” Shin replies, not thinking much about his privacy.

Soul hums and proceeds to check the wardrobe. Within a minute, he gets frustrated as hell. “So you expect me to dress you where all you have is same clothes in different shades of grey!”

“Come on! Don’t sulk now.” Shin laughs awkwardly as he knows he’s guilty.

Soul sighs and proceeds to initiate his search among the tasteless clothes with a grumpy face. Shin can’t help but follow Soul’s every move. Soon Soul finds out a dark blue baggy denim which looks to be left to rot since a decade and a white shirt. He manages to dig a pile of neck ties and find a tie with funky patterns on it, looks like it was ignored ever since it came here. Soul puts everything together, styles Shin’s hair and touches up his face with makeup. Lastly, “Don’t wear the glasses. Now look at the mirror yourself.” Soul orders his boss.

“Damn! Your dressing sense is indeed really good. Okay! Let’s go.”

Both of them reaches the pub. Such places are really not a cup of tea for Soul but can’t do otherwise. As both of them rests in the pub, Soul speaks,

“Sir, is it really a business get together or just a party for rich people?”

“That doesn’t matter.”  As Shin replies, his eyes lands on three familiar figure. As soon as Shin receives a wave from the three of them, he grabs Soul’s wrist saying, “Let’s go kid!”

“But-” no sooner than Soul could say something, he is already in front of those people.

“So you finally brought someone with you!” Jade tells Shin and then to Soul, “Hey! I’m Jade.”

“Hello! I’m Kim Soul, Mr. Shin’s secretary.” Soul replies.

“What?! Shin! I thought he’s your partner for tonight.” Jade says while both Shin and Soul shutters out of confusion.

Ren finds a chance to speak and proceeds, “Oh stop it Jade.” Facing towards Soul, he continues, “Hi, I’m Ren. Wanna grab some drinks with me?”

Even before anyone can say something, Shin meddles in, “No! He is a kid.”

“Umm, No I’m 24.” Soul replies thinking there is no problem drinking with one of his boss’ friends.

“Ok then let’s go!” As Ren says, he drags Soul away from Shin.

“Hey Ren!” All Shin could do is shout on Ren but all is in vain now as both Ren and Soul are gone. It makes him so mad from inside. He planned all this to spend some time with Soul on the weekend but his dumb friend just took the opportunity. He started sipping the alcohol while looking like a baby whose favorite toy just got lost. Just when he was busy sulking by his own, Julie comes beside him and asks,

“Shin! He is the person you were talking about that day. Right?”

Shin only hums while staring at his shoes, thinking she would feel disgusted of him. But Julie’s reaction makes him shocked.

“He’s good for you.” Julie says as she smiles ear to ear.

Shin simply frowns, not wanting to believe Julie’s words, he asks, “Aren’t you surprised?”

“No. You can love anyone you want. Why should I be surprised?”

“But it won’t be easy.”

“The best things always come after hardships.” Julie assures Shin.

Soon their conversation gets interrupted by a call. Shin sees Ren’s name and picked it up with mere irritation, “What now?”

“I think your Babyboy is drunk.”

“Didn’t I tell you before? Just wait there!” Shin shouts on Ren and cuts the call.

As he reaches out to Ren, he finds out Soul leaning his head on the counter with his face being all red. Looks like Soul has passed out. Shin comes near Soul and slightly shakes his hand, gentle enough to not give him headaches.

“Kim Soul! Are you okay?” Shin sounds so concerned that his voice has softened. On the other hand, Soul just hums with no energy left in his body. “Okay let’s go home.” Shin speaks politely.

“Nope!” Soul protested with a pout face, making Shin awestrucked.

“Ugh! He looks so cute.” That all Shin can think now but he says the otherwise, “Let me drop you to your condo.”

“NO WAY!” Soul shouts dragging attentions towards him.

Shin gets tensed yet he pleads Soul, gentle, soft, not to force him, “Please calm down you stupid Babyboy!”

Soul seems to really pass out this time. So he picks him up with Ren and Jade’s assistance yet giving Ren death stares for causing this mess, “Ren I’ll kill you for this!” “Come on bro it’s not that serious.” The bickering goes on.

Shin drives him home. Thanks to his built up toned body that he can carry Soul. Shin enters in Soul’s condo and lays Soul in his bed. He looks fine now since he’s coming back to his senses. Settling Soul down, Shin finally exhales.

“Ahh! Why did you even drink if you’re this lightheaded?” Shin sighs, fixing his clothes while he’s still hovering Soul.

 “Ren was so nice…” Soul mumbles.

“Since when huh?” Shin leans downwards, “Let me open the buttons…”

Shin slightly bends yet feels a pull as Soul unknowingly or maybe intentionally wraps his hands around Shin’s neck. The temperature between them makes Shin melt between his arms. The look is Soul’s eyes have already changed, drowning Shin in lust’s ocean. The line amid them seems to fade out from the arising steam that can only be felt and not seen.

“Do you know what you are doing?” Saliva started lumping inside Shin’s mouth as he speaks. Soul replies nothing. Looks like he wants to, by parting his fluffy lips but he chooses his eyes to communicate. The big cunning eyes rolling a little bit while looking up to Mr. Shin.

The tensions peaks and Shin risks it all. Months of hesitation washes off as Shin connects his lips with Soul’s, tasting every drop of alcohol which he had an hour ago. Without wasting another second, Soul kisses back, pulling Shin closes by his neck so that Shin can have his pink, cherished lips. The hard pull makes a friction between them, making both of them go crazy. They looked like two hungry people, trying to survive on whatever is left around them. The reek of alcohol and sweetness of the lips are making them crave for more, roaming the hands all over each other’s body, searching for a place to conquer. Lips deepening, tongues exploring every inch of their mouth, engulfing the heavy breaths.
