I don't think I ever wrote a point-five chapter this long. Enjoy!

The deck of cards sits quietly between me and Byun Baekhyun.

We're currently lounged crossed-legged on his bedroom floor and the only things joining us are some throw pillows and unopened bottles of soju. Rain is trying to play push-and-tackle with Peanut by the foot of the bed, but the latter doesn't seem to fancy playing back. Nor care.

It's another peaceful weekend. And whenever my fiancé and I hang out, we always tend to end up doing things we never expected to do. Just like now. Testing a Drink or Dare card game Kim Jongin decided to include in his newly bought bar was definitely not in our plans. I'd rather be making out with my fiancé right now or taking a nap in a bubble bath he prepared. But apparently, being a good friend equals to doing something for them once in a while.

"So... It's a bar with card games on the table?" Baekhyun raised a brow at me as he tilted his head curiously. "It's cute, babe. But won't the cards get lost or something?"

"There will be card games and board games," I corrected. "But don't worry. Jongin, with the help of some of our friends, created this game and got it reprinted hundreds of times. It even got different versions."

"Oh?" My fiancé threw the deck a worried glance. "Is that why there's a For Couples written below the title here?" He touched the back of the card. Byun Baekhyun's face definitely looks like he has zero confidence that whatever game Kim Jongin invented would end up nicely. And the kissing silhouette of a couple printed at the back of every card doesn't really make the purpose of this game more subtle.

I can't help but laugh a little at his skepticism. "Yeah," I winked at him. "We got the Couples version of the game."

Baekhyun bit on his lip with a worrisome expression before pulling a throw pillow and hugging it against his chest. I think he's more worried about getting drunk than playing the game itself. He isn't really a lightweight, but compared to me, he most probably be called one. Plus, an extremely drunk Byun Baekhyun isn't exactly problematic. He just passes out immediately.

"So..." Hyun peered at me through his lashes. "How does this game work?"

I cocked my head to one side, recalling what Jongin said the instruction was. "Uh..." I frowned, thinking, but soon gave up and just took my phone to read Jongin's most recent text. "It's simple. There are different dares written on every card. We take turns drawing one. If I can't do or finish the dare, I drink one full shot. But if I can, you drink two."

"What?" Baekhyun's eyes widened a little. "This is so unfair! You're almost never drunk."

I shrugged and regarded his expression for a moment. "Well, if it makes you feel any better," I took one soju bottle and opened it. "I can drink a full bottle before we start. Just so you can worry less about 'losing'." Though there's no win-or-lose thing in this game anyway.

For a moment, Baekhyun looked like I just gave him a bag full of candy. His eyebrows shoot up and his lips gaped in surprise. But the blissful expression immediately melted away. "That'll be more unfair," he pouts. "Fine! I'll just pray you lose." Baek squeezed his eyes shut and started muttering things I do not understand, making me chuckle. Why is he so cute?

"Okay," I grinned. "I'll start then."

When Baekhyun nodded, I slowly drew a card and read the dare.

Wax your legs. Don't try to contain the pain.

"HELL NO!" I exclaimed and Baekhyun took the card from me with a large grin. "I'm never gonna do that sht." I ran a protective hand over my leg hairs. They're short but they're there and I love them, okay?

Baekhyun is laughing loudly as he reads the dare. "Oh, okay, okay, I didn't know you're that protective of them," he chuckles. "Now you drink, then, Park Chan." He filled one shot glass with soju and handed it to me. My fiancé occasionally gets his legs waxed and I really wonder how he could put up with that when my sister says waxing hurts a lot. Won't it feel like ripping your skin off? With a shiver, I ran my hands over my legs. Nope. Never gonna happen.

After watching me take the shot, Baekhyun slowly plucked a card from the deck. "Trade clothes with your partner," he grimaces. He looks himself over and noted his loose pink cotton shirt that says Cool Party in bold letters and his white shorts. "But I love this shirt!" He whines, grabbing the hem possessively. When he noticed what I'm wearing— black jogger pants and a plain white shirt— his pout even deepened. "And your clothes look so boring."

I smirked. "You gonna drink then, baby?"

"Of course!" My fiancé exclaimed. "As much as I would love to beat you, I fcking love this shirt." And without batting an eyelid, he took a drink confidently. However, Baekhyun obviously doesn't like the taste of soju at all because he made these about-to-vomit faces before calming down. "I hate it," he murmurs as he wiped his chin with the back of his hand. "I really hate it."

I want to tease him more about his hatred of alcohol but didn't. Pissing him off isn't really on the list of the things I would like to do tonight. Instead, I reached out and quickly wiped the side of his lips with my thumb. "Okay, wait up," I said before standing and walking over to a small fridge just by the side of his study table. I took a canned mango juice and immediately handed it to Baek. "Here," I sat back down. "Use it to chase off the taste or something."

Baekhyun regarded the juice with an amused laugh. "Aw," he beams. "Thanks, honey."

"You're welcome," I smiled back before returning my attention to the cards. "Okay, the next ones should be easier, I suppose," I muttered as I draw another one and read the dare with a frown. "Take off your shirt for the rest of the game." Oh, now that is easy. With a shrug, I casually took my shirt off and placed it on the floor beside me. The night isn't exactly chilly so being topless is not a bother. However, that would only mean Baekhyun has to drink double.

I gave my fiancé a playful look. "Well then—" But I paused when I noticed he isn't really meeting my eyes. "Hyun?" I followed his gaze curiously. "Why are you staring at my chest?"

It took my fiancé a moment to answer. "W-What—" Baekhyun blinked a few times. "N-No— What— What did you say?" He is suddenly blushing so bad and I had to press my lips together to keep myself from chuckling. I've been working out more often ever since my schedule got less busy, and maybe it's the reason why my fiancé is suddenly trying to avoid looking at my direction. It's not like he hasn't seen me naked multiple times before. I wonder why Byun Baekhyun gets shy over the littlest things.

Even before I could give him the instruction, Baekhyun already unthinkingly chugged two shots of alcohol and he had to hug himself as if shivering, shaking his head in disgust. "Agh," he looks like he's in pain. "My throat feels like it's on fire," Baek tried to smile despite the grimace as he drank his juice immediately after. To be perfectly honest, I feel kind of bad to be playing this game with my fiancé knowing that he's a complete lightweight, but it's not like I would let myself be drunk, too. It really isn't pretty when I get drunk, so taking care of Baekhyun's drunk self would be better for me.

My fiancé lifted another dare from the deck. "Show whole browsing history in your phone," he mutters.

"Well, that's intriguing," I chuckled. In a second, Baekhyun is already handing me his phone with a smug look on his face. I gave him a look. "I wonder what kind of things you're Googling." I said as I took the phone. My fiancé has a security code but it remained the same since college so I kind of know it already. Just four zeros. Talk about pseudo-security.

I tapped on the Safari icon and immediately looked through his history. Everything dated back from a while ago to few months before. It seems like Baekhyun doesn't really clear his browsing history.

"Found something?" Baekhyun lifted a brow.

"This is weird," I started to frown, though a smile is pinching the side of my cheek. "Why the hell are you browsing the internet for recipes?" Baekhyun chuckles so I scrolled further down through the browsing list. Most of the sites are harmless, mostly websites for artists and clothes. But then something caught my eye and I have to gasp. "AND BUTT PLUGS?!"

Byun Baekhyun laughed out loud and I have to do the same despite the surprise. I am shaking my head in amusement and disbelief and my fiancé just took glee in watching my reaction. His laugh is contagious and very much ear-welcoming, and soon enough, we're already laughing our assess off as we swoop further down to his internet secrets.

It took us fifteen whole minutes to realize we can't really finish Baekhyun's history. It is surprisingly revealing. Like he doesn't really expect someone to steal his phone and rummage through his secrets. But maybe it's just because he doesn't really care. And he doesn't like hiding things or keeping secrets. So, after I took another two shots of alcohol, I'm again drawing a card from the deck.

"I hope I get to see your browsing history, too," Baek giggles. "I'm pretty sure it'll be interesting."

"It's boring," I said, smirking. But no. It's not boring.

I traveled my eyes to the card I am holding. Write a word or phrase on your partner's back with your fingers. They must guess what it is. "Okay, turn around," I told my fiancé and he did it excitedly but not before throwing me a confused look. I handed him the card for him to read.

"Do you want me to take off my shirt?" he asked.

I paused, thinking. "Do you want to?"

Byun Baekhyun let out a small laugh. "Whatever's okay."

Grinning, I moved to sit behind him, placing my hands on either side of his waist before leaning down to plant a soft kiss on his shoulder. "It's fine, honey," I whispered. "I know you don't like going shirtless."

"Who told you that?" Baekhyun laughed as I continued pressing gentle kisses on his shoulder.

"I just know," I murmured. Byun Baekhyun gets chilly easily. But he doesn't have to tell me that. Slowly, I traveled my hand from his waist and up his back, just below his shoulder blade. I could feel the warmth of his skin through the thin shirt he's wearing, and I could still smell the lingering fragrance of the soap from his evening shower. Gently, I used my index finger to write the word.

"Hmm," my fiancé hummed curiously. "Again, please?"

I chuckled, amused. Then wrote the words again. It's just three characters. 너의 눈.

"Well, that's easy," Baekhyun grins before tilting his head to my direction. "What's up with my eyes?"

I lifted my face so I could look at him, my gaze locking with his. We're just a few inches apart. Too close. Close enough to kiss. But instead to doing that, I just found myself staring at him, my soul drowning into his brown orbs. "They dance with the light," I whispered, a small sincere smile pinching my lips. "They flicker like a prism when the sun's rays touch them. You smile and they do, too. You cry and I'm suddenly staring into a vast darkness. They're the emotions you try to hide or the words you don't want to say," I reached up and slowly brushed his cheek with my fingers. "They're beautiful. And so are you, Byun Baekhyun."

For a moment, my fiancé just stared back at me. Like he doesn't really know what to say. He doesn't know how to respond. He searches my face for anything that could break this trance we're suddenly in. And when he could find none, he bit his lip and looked down, the color of his cheeks a beautiful shade of rose. I could tell he's smiling but is too shy to let me see how flushed he is. With a chuckle, I gave his forehead a gentle kiss before retreating to my position on his bedroom floor.

"One drink for me then?" I said with a fake sigh.

Baekhyun looked up at me, still blushing. "Y-Yeah," he breathes. "One drink."

When it's already my fiancé's turn, he almost immediately tossed back on the floor the card he just drew. "I can't!" he complains. "And I won't!" Curious, I took the card and read it on my own. You must call one of your partner's parents and tell them how much you love your partner.

I pursed my lips, trying not to simper. "Well, that's—"

"I know they love me," Baekhyun is saying. "But I'm pretty sure your mom would think I'm a lunatic if I call her now and just randomly tell her how much I love you."

"Or..." I raised a finger. "She'll think you're sweet?"

Baekhyun frowns. "Seriously?"

"Okay. It'll be weird," I finally agreed. But that also means Byun Baek has to drink and he obviously doesn't like the idea because for a full moment, he's just staring at the two shot glasses I have filled up for him. I waited patiently though, my eyes watching every emotion that crosses his face. With his eyes squeezed shut, my fiancé finished his drinks in less than five seconds. But not without the retching after.

I smiled widely in appreciation. "You're getting good at this, babe," I teased.

"Shut up," he rolls his eyes. "You're lucky I'm head over heels in love with you."

"Yeah, sure," and with a grin, I took my fourth dare from the deck.

I frowned, tilting my head to one side.

But it took me only a second to consider. Then with a shrug, I took two shots of soju. Baekhyun sat up straight, eyebrows shooting up in surprise and curiosity. "Woah, woah, woah," he took the card from me. "What did it say? Let me read it. Why didn't you— Oh." Be rude to your partner for the rest of the game—That's what the card says. And Byun Baekhyun knows that I could never be rude to him. I couldn't even pinch him or raise my voice at him in annoyance even if he asks me to. I'm just not that kind of guy, especially around him.

My fiancé gave me an amused look. "You're cute."

"Huh," it's my turn to roll my eyes. "You're only noticing now?"

"And cocky, too, huh?" Baek giggles as he slowly pulled a card from the deck. I watched him read it and I watched his face turn red. "B-But—" he hands me the card. "I don't even have a sex toy!"

Suddenly super curious, I turned my attention to the words written on the card. Use one of your sex toys on yourself for 60 seconds.

Oh?

So, there are these kinds of dares, huh? But honestly. What did I actually expect from Kim Fcking Jongin and our womanizer friends? A game of celibacy? I would have rolled my eyes right now if they had not fell on Byun Baekhyun's milky white thighs across from me. They are flawless and smooth to the touch, especially on the inner areas. In a split second, I'm already traveling my thoughts into a pretty place where my fiancé is actually doing the dare. What if—

"I know what you're thinking," Baekhyun interrupted my thought process with a stern voice. "And it's never gonna happen, Park."

"W-What—" I swallowed. My throat suddenly felt dry. "I don't— I was not—" But my fiancé is already looking at me like some police who caught a criminal, so I just sighed. "Fine," I said. "I just thought it'll be fun."

"Uh-huh?" Baekhyun shook his head. "It's not! It'll be embarrassing."

"Okay? But since when did you look embarrassing during sex?" I challenged.

My fiancé blushed. "Oh, I don't know," he exclaims. "You tell me."

"Never," I answered casually. "You're always gorgeous."

Byun Baekhyun obviously prepared another stern reply for that, but it seemed caught up in his throat. So instead of answering my remark, he just took two shots of the alcohol without taking his eyes off me. He tried to look pissed. It's just that we both know that isn't the case. Not at all. Sometimes, my fiancé just hates it when he doesn't get to say the last words in a conversation... Like most people.

Also meeting his eyes, I aimlessly took another dare card from the now scattered deck. I gave the words a quick glance. Then smirked. Go online and order your partner a sex toy you think they'd like.

"What are you smiling for?" Baekhyun looked at me suspiciously.

"Nothing," I took my phone from my pocket. "I'm just... doing the dare."

My fiancé's eyes narrowed into thin slits. "What dare?"

I handed him the card whilst tapping on my phone. Hmm. What should I get him?

"The fck is this?" Baek gasped. "I don't need a fcking sex toy!"

A dildo? But my dck is definitely more satisfying.

"Hey! Are you even listening to me?"

Oh. A vibrator? But... Will the pleasure be enough?

"Seriously, this guy!" Baekhyun gritted his teeth together.

Then I suddenly remembered his browsing history. "A butt plug!" I exclaimed and within seconds, I'm already scrolling through different types and designs of butt plugs. With an exasperated groan, Byun Baekhyun moved to sit beside me on the floor, wide, unbelieving eyes staring at the screen of my phone. He gave my arm a hard slap.

"I don't need a butt plug!"

"But you were just browsing through them."

"I know!" he exclaims. "But I was just curious, okay?"

"Curious?" I frowned. "About how they look?"

"No!"

"How they would feel?"

"Fck, no, okay?"

"If they're vibrating?"

"NO!" Baekhyun's face is now red. "I was just curious if they're bigger!"

"What—"

"I was curious if they're bigger than your fcking beast of a dck, you stupid jerk!" Baekhyun shouts and I swear someone in the hallway (if there is) would have heard him. I looked at him, surprise plastered on my face. Well... I didn't expect that. Baek heaved a long, deep sigh. "Every time we have sex, it always feels like you're ripping me apart... And not in a bad way," he murmurs, eyes not meeting mine. "So I thought... maybe... A butt plug, if there's something close enough to the size of your c*ck, I could use that to prep myself before sex."

Slowly, I reached for Baekhyun's face and made him look at me. His eyes are kind of shy and his cheeks are flushed. "Hyun..." I whispered. "Am I hurting you?"

"What— No," Baekhyun shook his head and gave out an amused smile. "But you're always holding back just because you don't want to hurt me— And— I don't know... Maybe we could finally have a quicker quicky if I use one," he giggles.

I chuckled. "I like prepping you actually."

"Oh, you do?" my fiancé rested his chin on my shoulder. "Why?"

"Because of your facial expressions," Then I added in a whisper, "They're hot."

Byun Baekhyun laughed and pressed his palm on my face. "Whatever, perv."

When my fiancé pulled away and went back to his place across from me, I announced, "But I still bought you one, though," I showed him my phone. "Just in case you really want to try it out."

"I wouldn't need that," he shook his head in amusement.

"Maybe," I shrugged. "But I would love to see you with it."

Baekhyun rolled his eyes and probably fought the urge to kick me in the nuts. "No. You won't," he said and unthinkingly chugged two shots of soju. See? He's wincing but the retching is already gone. My fiancé wiped his bottom lip with the back of his hand whilst picking up another card. He read it out loud, "Put a blindfold on, pucker up your lips, and try to guess what your partner touches it with."

I smiled widely.

My fiancé glared before putting on his sleep mask to block his vision. "Don't do anything stupid, Park."

"What?" I chuckle. "I won't. Don't worry."

As soon as Byun Baekhyun is ready, I crawled to his direction and just stared at his face for a moment. He isn't a bit nervous. Just waiting. And waiting. Does he know I'm not going to let him do something that would make him feel uncomfortable? Slowly, I neared my face to his and touched the tip of my nose to his pink lips. It was just a second, but Byun Baekhyun already bursts out laughing as he pulls back. "I know it! I know it!" he giggles as he removed the blindfold. "It was your nose."

I stared at him, dumbfounded. "How would you know? It was just a second!"

My fiancé smiled slyly. "Oh, I know every part of that body, hm?"

"Huh," I nodded, fighting off a grin and trying hard not to kiss him. "Well, I have no doubt about that, hon."

Byun Baekhyun looks like he's about to pass out.

"Come on! Pick up a card already!"

"Okay, okay, chill," I raised both palms as if in surrender. My fiancé just glared at me as I took another card from the deck. Honestly, I could already feel the alcohol kicking into my system. My body feels hotter and sweat clings to my bare chest, I have to keep wiping my body with the shirt I was just wearing a while ago.

We are playing this game for almost two hours already and Baekhyun isn't even close to giving up. He keeps a firm hold around consciousness and I must admit. This is quite new. And surprising. He's lucky I'm not one to get drunk that easily. Or else...

"What does it say?" Baekhyun cocked his head to one side as he looks at the card I'm holding. His cheeks are red. He looks pretty still.

I showed him the card. Blindfold your partner and kiss your favorite part of their body for 60 seconds.

My fiancé smirked. "Oh?" he licks his bottom lip. "So... What's your favorite, babe?"

Oh, shoot. How do I do this? "What if I don't have a favorite?" I asked honestly.

Baek frowned. "That can't be right," he says. "There's got to be something. Do you want me to undress?" And he's already making a move to remove his shirt but I stopped him. Okay. Maybe a passed-out-Baekhyun is better than this aggressive-temptress-Baekhyun I am drinking alcohol with right now. I'm starting to regret playing this game with him.

"There's no need to remove your shirt, alright?" I sighed and slowly took his face in my hands. "Okay, baby. Let's just say I'm going to kiss an area that makes you let out those pretty gasps I like."

"Hm?" Baekhyun smirks. "And where is that?"

Still staring into his eyes, I reached downwards and grabbed his thighs, running my palms over the feather-like skin before pushing them apart. Baekhyun's eyes went wide but he didn't tear his gaze off me. He watched as my eyes look south and I leaned closer, pressing our foreheads together just before I started traveling my lips lower and lower. "Start timing," I breathed and Baekhyun answered with a whimper. It's pretty good that my fiancé is wearing shorts, because if he isn't, I wouldn't be able to plant featherlight kisses on the inside of his thighs.

"Chan—" Baekhyun gasped just as the first, tender kiss was planted and it's the kind of gasp I like—breathless and with a name. Mine. Like he can't breathe but enjoys the sensation as well. His breathing started to become more audible and I felt one of his hands brush my hair gently. I continued kissing his skin and listening to his breathless calls, enjoying the fact that if I close my eyes, I wouldn't even know if I'm kissing a plume or the thigh of the love of my life. When I finally pulled back, Baekhyun's eyes are wide and aroused.

"Hey—"

But Baekhyun is already grabbing a throw pillow and hugging it. He also drank his punishment alcohol without much reaction. "I-I'm fine—" he murmurs, pressing the pillow on his groin. "Just—" My fiancé bit on his lower lip shyly and peered up at me through his lashes. His cheeks are redder than before and his eyes more alive than usual. He's beautiful. When—Just when could I ever get used to this sight?

"Sorry," I pursed my lips, looking away. It wasn't the correct thing to say but what else, right? And Baekhyun seemed to accept it anyway so. No harm done.

Slowly, my fiancé pulled out a card from the deck again. "Close your eyes and describe what your partner's body looks like in your own words," he reads out loud. "Okay..." he covers his eyes with his hands but not before giving my whole body a quick run-through. "Do I start from the top or nah?"

"Whatever you like," I said with a chuckle.

"Fine," Baekhyun giggles before breathing in dramatically. "You have pointy-ears—"

"Of course..." I groaned.

"No, listen!" Byun Baekhyun laughs out loud. "You do have pointy-ears... But they suit you. You're cute with them. And then you have those jet-black eyes that sometimes feel like they're piercing through my soul. They make you look hot... Especially in bed," he added with a blush.

I raised a brow. "Oh?"

"And um..." Baekhyun licked his lower lip, thinking. "You have a pretty nose which practically makes your side profile way more perfect than it has to be. I mean, you're already handsome from the front. Do you have to be perfect from the sides, too? It's so unfair."

"Hey, don't pout," I chuckled, poking his nose.

"Your neck also looks sexy and I love kissing every part of it. Weirdly enough, I also like watching you drink because— Uhhh... I don't know. M-Maybe it's the Adam's apple? I don't know!" Baekhyun exclaims and his face looks like it'll be hot from touch. "A-And well... your chest is..." he swallowed audibly. "It's... It's kind of my favorite pillow," he added in a soft voice. "Not because it's hard or well-toned or whatever. It's just... It's just that... I feel safer when I sleep then I could feel your body pressed against mine. Especially when I have your strong arms wrapped around me. Everything is better... More bearable... When I'm that near to you."

Byun Baekhyun continued on and on. And I laughed and complained and laughed again. But most importantly, I get to hear words he never really told me before. He described me not in mere words but by how I make him feel. And it's intimate and sweet and it made me understand more the love he has for me. Not that I need to understand his love. All I want is to feel it. To live with it. Nothing else.

We continued drawing dares. We continued drinking.

Baekhyun's speech started to slur and my vision started to become woozy. I picked a card that dared me to write my name on the floor with my tongue and I immediately turned it down by drinking. I mean— Who does that? That's totally unhygienic.

"Got another one!" Baekhyun shouts and I have to pull him down just so he stopped dancing on his own. He's been party dancing like a maniac along with a crazy song and I have to stop him from stepping over the cards and the small plastic cups. His body fell on me and I let him, hugging him close with a sigh as he sat on my lap. He's way more drunk than he usually is. I just hope we won't get into any kind of trouble. "Ooohhh..." my fiancé cooed against my chest just before showing me the card he drew. "I like this one."

Whisper in your partner's ear a sexy nickname you've never called them but always wanted to try.

"A nickname?"

Baekhyun nods slowly before picking himself up and suddenly straddling me. He cups my face with his hands and looks straight into my eyes. His brown orbs are dark and lustful and I don't think I have ever seen him this intoxicated. Uh-oh. Gently, he gave me a kiss on the lips— it's short but warm and I could almost feel my insides melting. I held Baekhyun by the waist as he continued traveling his kisses from my lips and to my cheek, until he reaches my right ear. He licked my earlobe and I felt a pleasant shiver run down my spine.

One of his hands started to caress my chest. "How about you continue calling me baby..." he purrs seductively. "And I... Will call you daddy."
