<Choi Palace>

Jeonghan was the first to wake up. He sat up on the bed and yawned, torn between waking up and sleeping again.

It was when Seungcheol stirred in his sleep. He sat up as well, trying to adjust to the light in the room. He was shirtless, as he stretched, his muscles strained and flexed.

Jeonghan couldn't hold back as he stared at the older's bare torso.

Seungcheol chuckled lightly as his deep sleepy voice echoed, "Like it?"

Jeonghan turned away, "Stop showing off."

"I wasn't showing off, I was just waking up." Seungcheol retorted.

"Sure I believe you." Jeonghan rolled his eyes.

Seungcheol embraced the younger from the back, "You got caught staring so you're trying to blame me for it hm?"

"What do you mean by, caught staring huh?" Jeonghan wriggled.

Seungcheol held him in place, "Oh right, you were just admiring what's yours."

"Seungcheol, you just woke up-"

"And started teasing you." Seungcheol chuckled while resting his head on the younger's shoulders.

"Yes." Jeonghan whined.

Seungcheol nibbled on the younger's neck, "As if you don't like my arms around yourself."

Jeonghan smiled mischievously, "I don't like your back hugs."

"Why so?" Seungcheol frowned.

"Because you get all the advantage." Jeonghan acted up, "I can't look at you even if you're showing off."

"Is that so?" Seungcheol raised a brow.

Jeonghan shifted on the bed to face the older, "Look at yourself, all bulked up."

"That's not a very nice way to look at someone." Seungcheol chuckled nervously.

"But you're not someone, you're my husband." Jeonghan trailed his index finger from the older's chest to his torso, "And what did you say that night? My personal property."

Seungcheol gripped the younger's wrist, "You're being a tease again."

Jeonghan inched closer while holding the older's strained shoulders, "Relax, why are you so tensed up?"

"You're messing it up." Seungcheol whispered.

Jeonghan grinned as he slowly pushed the older on the bed and half hovered over him while holding his shoulder, "How so?"

Seungcheol gripped the younger's waist, pulling him closer, "You very well know that."

Jeonghan played with the older's chain, "I really don't know. Am I too much to handle?"

"Definitely." Seungcheol grunted.

Jeonghan inched closer to his ear and whispered, "Stop playing and get ready." He quickly got off the bed.

"Jeonghan?" Seungcheol sat up, "I'll not forget this. You better watch out."

"Oh my, I'm so scared." Jeonghan laughed as he went into the bathroom, shutting the door.

"I see, I'm going too easy on you." Seungcheol chuckled to himself.

After spending an entire day, hanging out around the palace, Seungcheol, Jeonghan, Seokmin, Joshua and Dino, finally halted at their regular place.

Their one pick garden.

"I'm so full." Dino sighed, "We ate a lot today."

"I know." Seokmin nodded, "We were being too reckless."

"If someone had watched us, they'll probably think the royalty is out of food or something." Seungcheol joked.

"And if someone had watched Seokmin and Joshua, they'll probably think that they never get a room." Jeonghan laughed.

"Shut up." Joshua smacked his arms.

"Hyung!" Seokmin whined.

Joshua looked at Seungcheol, "Ask your husband to shut up."

Seungcheol raised his hands, surrendering himself.

"Y'all stop this husband husband thing." Dino rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, I think we should have invited Mingyu's family too, right?" Seungcheol wriggled his brows.

"Hyung, what-?" Dino's breath hitched.

"C'mon Dino, we know you want to wife her up." Seokmin chuckled.

Dino choked on the water he was drinking, "Are you...stupid?"

"He's not stupid, you're trying to act cool." Jeonghan added.

"Hyung-"

"We won't hear your lies." Joshua declared.

"Okay." Dino slumped on his chair, "Well- yeah- I mean, she's perfect."

"Who?" Seokmin asked, "We didn't even name anyone."

"I wish you were younger than me." Dino sarcastically stated.

"Dino! Just go with your heart." Seungcheol patted his back, "You convince her, your brothers will handle the rest."

Dino chuckled, "I know."

All of them joked around for a while after which they realised it was getting too late. Jeonghan and Joshua went away to talk while the others left.

Seungcheol stepped into his room as it was empty. He looked around for a brief moment, "Where is he?"

"Jeonghan?" He called but soon realised that Jeonghan wasn't back yet.

Seungcheol stretched a bit as he decided to take a warm shower. He discarded his shirt and tossed it on the bed while walking towards the bathroom.

After taking a soothing and warm bath, he stepped out of the bathroom, only to be met with Jeonghan sitting on the couch, busy with his phone.

Jeonghan had already changed into comfy clothes- wait- what?

Seungcheol noticed that Jeonghan was wearing the shirt that he had just removed. He eyed the younger intently, feeling the heat of anticipation rising within himself.

"What did I do now?" Seungcheol complained.

Jeonghan looked up, shutting his phone, "Pardon?"

"What did I do to earn this torture of yours now?" Seungcheol explained.

"Huh? What torture?" Jeonghan frowned, "I haven't even touched you."

"Exactly." Seungcheol chuckled, "How did you choose to wear my shirt, my scent, my possessiveness?"

Go with the flow
Come closer baby
It's okay
You can be honest with me
I can't believe this

"It was just kept here." Jeonghan nodded, "And you like it, don't you? I thought of making you happy."

"You want to make me happy?" Seungcheol raised a brow, "If you really mean it then just come here, come to me."

"That doesn't sound too convincing, Mr. Choi." Jeonghan grinned.

"What part doesn't convince you to simply stand up and walk towards me?" Seungcheol scrunched his brows.

"Because why am I supposed to listen to you when it's you who has some unknown demands?" Jeonghan bit his lower lip.

"It's funny how you think you don't have any demands." Seungcheol laughed briefly.

"I don't." Jeonghan nodded.

"Seems like, I need to make you realise how many desires you're hiding beneath that nonchalant behaviour." Seungcheol scoffed, "People these days are not very self aware."

Seungcheol began to walk towards the younger, slowly and steadily. Each of his step was determined and confident, proving that he wasn't joking around.

Seungcheol leaned over the younger, his arms resting on the couch on his either sides, "Do you know what you want? You want me this close to yourself. You want each of my breath to hit your sense of desire. You want my gaze to stick to your every move."

Seungcheol sniffled his neck, "Amazing. My scent is all over you. You wanted this right? You wanted to feel me over yourself so you chose my shirt to do that task for you."

Seungcheol's hand traveled from the younger's neck, through his chest to his waist, "This is what you want."

Seungcheol nibbled on the younger's earlobe, "You made my own shirt my biggest enemy, darling. I hate how it is hiding a great view from my eyes."

Seungcheol gave an unexpected bite beneath his earlobe as Jeonghan unconsciously whimpered.

Jeonghan gasped as he clearly heard the sound he had just made.

"See? You said you have no wishes." Seungcheol grinned, "You got one baby. And now, I'll slowly unfold all of your pretty little demands that you're hiding from me."

"You're being too proud of yourself, aren't you?" Jeonghan raised a brow.

"Not yet." Seungcheol chuckled, "Not until I help you know yourself, better."

"Huh?"

"You don't like this?" Seungcheol acknowledged, "Fine, say no for once and I'll stop in no time."

Jeonghan found himself struggling to word out a simple no.

"What happened?" Seungcheol asked, "Why aren't you saying that you don't want me close to yourself?"

Jeonghan felt his heart race. His hands reached on to clutch Seungcheol's collars, breathing heavily.

Seungcheol waited for him to decide his next move.

Jeonghan slowly rose up, attaching his lips over the older's jawline. He pulled Seungcheol closer to himself while trailing down to his neck.

"No demands hmm?" Seungcheol mumbled.

Jeonghan pushed the older as he landed on the table, in front. He stood between his legs and stared at him.

Jeonghan's hands came in contact with Seungcheol's cheeks and nape as the older quickly wrapped his arms around his waist.

"Are you willing to fulfill all my demands, Seungcheol?" Jeonghan whispered.

Seungcheol pulled him closer while caressing his waist over the thin piece of shirt, "I'm not joking."

"Hold me tight." Jeonghan muttered.

"Yes, darling." Seungcheol tightened his grip around his waist, "What are you wishing for?"

Whatever you want, just tell me
Whatever you desire
The way you want to do it
Take yourself to a new world

"Shh." Jeonghan placed his fingers on the older's lips, touching them intently, "Give me all the control over yourself."

"Sure." Seungcheol chuckled, "Control, rights, privilege, everything is yours."

Jeonghan caressed the older's cheeks with his thumb as Seungcheol's grip over the younger began to tighten, restlessly waiting for his next move.

"Now that you pointed out, I really want something." Jeonghan ran his finger over the older's biceps, "Do I need your permission?"

"Not at all, you already have my permission." Seungcheol grunted, "Just, don't make me wait too much. It's almost driving me insane."

Jeonghan stared at him for a while after which he leaned in to press his lips over the older's. He retracted within a moment, giving Seungcheol the time to process and dilate his widened eyes.

After a moment Seungcheol chuckled, "Why did you stop, darling? I'm pretty sure it didn't satisfy you enough."

"Yes, it didn't." Jeonghan breathed out after which he leaned in again.

Seungcheol captured his lips amidst his own as he could already feel each of his vein burning to get a taste of those scrumptious lips. He got the desired entrance as he pushed his tongue in, exploring every inch of the younger.

He clutched the back of Jeonghan's shirt into a fist, pulling him closer to himself. Jeonghan whimpered against the older's tongue which instigated him to get even more fierce.

Jeonghan messed the older's hair as his hands traveled to his shoulders. Seungcheol gripped his waist as he sucked on the younger's lips restlessly.

They parted away after being breathless as Seungcheol stared at the younger with utmost admiration, "This was much needed."

And it's just two of us
Spend this time
No need to rush
Cause only you can touch
Only you

Jeonghan still stood amidst the older's legs who was sitting on the table as he wrapped his arms around Seungcheol's shoulders.

Seungcheol's expressions darkened, "Craving for more?"

Jeonghan nodded as he exhaled a deep breath.

Seungcheol rolled his tongue over his own lips as his hands reached beneath the younger's shirt to caress his bare waist, "Words?"

Jeonghan placed a kiss on the older's earlobe and whispered, "Kiss me more."

"I thought someone was taking control?"

"That's my damn order."

Seungcheol let out a brief laughter, "I was so stupid of thinking to make you beg. I like this better, much better. Keep ordering me like that." He leaned in to press another kiss on the younger's lips.

Seungcheol traced his hands over Jeonghan's back, inside the shirt as the younger wriggled slightly.

Seungcheol grinned, "I can't believe you're this sensitive. As I had been watching you play the game of blood so fiercely, I really didn't expect you to melt in my arms like this."

"And?" Jeonghan chuckled wickedly, "I too always saw you with your head held high. Even I didn't expect you to be so weak in front of me."

"You have the power and you know it exactly." Seungcheol whispered, "It's too dangerous for me, isn't it?"

"Maybe?" Jeonghan pressed his hands over Seungcheol's shoulders, knowing he was exhausted due to a hectic day.

"Thank you." Seungcheol mumbled, snuggling his face into Jeonghan's chest while caressing his waist.

Jeonghan ran his fingers through the older's hair, "How long am I going to stand like this?"

"You can sit." Seungcheol grinned mischievously, pulling the younger on his lap, "You know, there's no rush. You're mine to devour."

Seungcheol dug his face into the crook of the younger's neck, "You smell so tempting. Come closer, I want to feel your breath on me."

Jeonghan inched closer to the older.

Seungcheol pressed his lips over the younger's, once again. Their lips moved in unison as Seungcheol held Jeonghan in place.

Jeonghan's hands ruffled through the older's hair while Seungcheol pushed his tongue in, tasting every inch of the everlasting glory.

Jeonghan whimpered into the older's mouth, giving into the sensation of heat rising between them. He held Seungcheol's nape to pull him closer while the older gripped on Jeonghan's waist.

They parted away as Seungcheol stared at the younger's disheveled state, "You look so gorgeous like this. And what makes it more special is the fact that only I can see you in this state."

It's okay
You can be honest with me

Jeonghan chuckled, "Same goes for me though." He yawned after which he rested his head on the older's chest.

Seungcheol grinned as he lifted the younger into his arms and carried him to the bed.

Jeonghan laid straight as Seungcheol placed his head over the younger's chest and wrapped his arms around his waist.

Jeonghan smiled as he brushed the older's hair who was sticking to him.

"I love how you fit so good in my arms." Seungcheol muttered.

Jeonghan laughed slowly, "Of course I do, only I do."

"Yes darling, only you." Seungcheol assured.

Come closer to me
A little bit closer to me
You can come closer
I know you want
This moment is only permitted to you

A/n : SOMH core :-

Anyways, take care everyone!
