DP Episode 123

Episode 123

Imagination could never surpass reality. Yeon-woo felt that truth deeply as he looked down at Seo-joon beneath him.

Yeon-woo… Cha Yeon-woo…

Hearing his name called over and over again—so tenderly—was all it took to make him come again. Seo-joon’s soft, wet insides, hot enough to melt flesh, clung to him with a slick, soaking heat.

Yeon-woo still couldn’t believe that a part of his body was buried inside Seo-joon—that he had been swallowed so completely.

This… this was what sex really was.

An act so devastatingly intimate, so unbearably full of love, that in the end, it crushed the other person’s insides just to be closer. A violent, destructive expression of wanting to become one.

Squelch, squelch. Wet, sticky sounds rose from where their bodies were fused together. Yeon-woo gently explored and touched his lover’s insides, already drenched with greedy lust. Even after invading his lover’s very guts, it wasn’t enough—he burned with the desire to merge even deeper.

His cock, barely halfway in, slowly pushed further. Even knowing full well that his absurd size made it nearly impossible for Seo-joon’s body to take it all, Yeon-woo ached with frustration that he still couldn’t reach far enough.

“Nngh… haa… ah, Yeon-woo…”

He unconsciously thrust a little harder—and froze. His hands cupped Seo-joon’s cheeks as he looked down with anxious eyes, trying to gauge how he was holding up. Seo-joon’s usually dry, gray eyes were, for once, glistening with moisture.

“Does it hurt…?”

Yeon-woo whispered, gently brushing his lips against the corners of Seo-joon’s eyes. The legs wrapped around his waist tightened. And then—faced with his lover’s expression, so close he could barely breathe—

“…It feels good. So keep going.”

It was a face he hadn’t been able to forget even once since the first time he saw it at thirteen. No matter what expression he wore, to Yeon-woo, he was always beautiful—always awe-inspiring. He wouldn’t have minded if his gaze were frozen on him for the rest of his life.

“Deeper… as much as you can… all of it.”

The tight, slick inner walls clung even more eagerly to the pleasure-flushed cock, pulling it in with even greater intensity. The sensation of being drawn in—head first—by those clenched walls sent a sharp, shivering thrill through him. Yeon-woo’s face twisted as he let out a moan.

“Ah… Lieutenant… hnngh…”

His damp lips met Seo-joon’s lowered gaze, unable to hide the overwhelming feeling.

You’re beautiful, Yeon-woo. Even when you’re wincing like that—you’re so beautiful, what am I supposed to do? How could I not love you, huh? How could I ever let you go… when you’re this precious, when just looking at you makes my heart ache so badly…

The dreamlike whispers fluttered softly through the air. Yeon-woo held his precious lover in his arms, cherishing him with a tenderness that felt endless. He brushed back the sweat-damp hair from Seo-joon’s forehead, wiped the tears trailing from his eyes with the pad of his thumb, and scattered kisses over his nose and cheeks as he pleased.

I want to go deeper. Even more.

It was the kind of night so overwhelming, so full to bursting—he could die like this, and it would be enough.

✽✽✽

“Lieutenant, look at this.”

Seo-joon had just stepped out of the bathroom, shaking the water from his damp hair, when he glanced down at what Yeon-woo was holding out with both hands—an empty, flattened packet of single-use lube, pressed down into the sheets.

“…We didn’t use this yesterday.”

“Ah.”

Seo-joon let out a light laugh. He’d gone to the trouble of setting it aside, only to forget it completely—blinded by the urge to swallow Cha Yeon-woo’s cock.

“You got me so wet, Yeon-woo, we didn’t really need it anyway.”

Is his skin just thin? How does he blush so easily? Yeon-woo’s eyes darted to the side, quickly lowering. Seo-joon stared at the soft peach fuzz on his cheek like he was trying to memorize it before turning back toward the bathroom.

He tossed his damp towel inside, then carefully hid the boxes of nerve stabilizers and muscle relaxants he’d secretly taken that morning deep in the bathroom trash. When he returned, Yeon-woo was gone—and the torn lube packet was in his hand instead.

“…”

What, was he trying to start something again this early in the morning? That was Seo-joon’s first thought—but Yeon-woo, it turned out, was just curiously watching the lube ooze slowly into his palm.

He spent a while reading the ingredients printed on the packet, occasionally sniffing it or rubbing it between his fingers. Seo-joon silently watched his strange behavior until he finally asked:

“Yeon-woo, what are you doing?”

“Ah.”

Yeon-woo jumped like he’d just been caught playing with something he wasn’t supposed to touch, and quickly hid his hands behind his back.

“What were you planning to do with that, first thing in the morning?”

“I was just… curious…”

He’s a baby, he really is a baby, Seo-joon thought. But never in his life had he expected to witness a full-grown twenty-year-old playing with lube like a fidget toy.

Seo-joon chuckled and sat beside him. Well, it wasn’t exactly strange. A healthy guy in his twenties who’d just had his first sexual experience—it made sense he’d start taking interest in this kind of stuff.

“You’re supposed to use this after putting on the condom. Apply a lot—enough to drip—either on your cock or your partner’s entrance. If you keep everything wet and slick, the initial entry is a lot easier and hurts way less for your partner. If needed, keep adding more as you go.”

“Yes, okay…”

Yeon-woo nodded attentively, taking in every word—and then, with that bright, open expression, he asked:

“Should we start using condoms from now on?”

“…”

There was one very important fact their conversation completely overlooked.

Seo-joon stared at Yeon-woo, momentarily speechless. Between an Esper and a Guide, condoms weren’t necessary at all.

“…Yeah. When you have sex, always use a condom, Yeon-woo.”

But probably not with his next partner—who wouldn’t be a Guide. Not in a future without Gates.

“Have a good day at school, Yeon-woo.”

Seo-joon gently brushed Yeon-woo’s cheek, parked by the roadside, and straightened the neat school uniform under his padded coat.

“It’s really not long now.”

The day Cha Yeon-woo would finally take off his school uniform and fill his daily life with only the clothes Seo-joon had bought him—it was just around the corner. His slightly flushed cheeks, tinged with excitement, were unbearably lovely.

“Should we go on a trip after your graduation?”

“…Where do you want to go?”

Seo-joon asked as he rubbed his thumb across Yeon-woo’s round cheek.

“Mm, somewhere close. It’s too cold right now, so let’s save Jeju Island for spring.”

Would he even have the time? At the very least, it was a relief that he’d be able to see Yeon-woo’s graduation. That much, he thought, he could hold onto.

“Sounds good. If we leave in the afternoon right after the ceremony, we should make it. There are plenty of nearby spots to—”

Just then, the car’s Bluetooth rang with an incoming call. Seo-joon checked the caller and turned off the Bluetooth, putting the phone to his ear.

“Yes, Colonel.”

—Lieutenant Ji.

Colonel Jin’s voice was hoarse and low, gradually fading to a whisper. Seo-joon lowered the call volume to near-silent, not wanting Yeon-woo to overhear, and opened the driver’s side window.

—We coordinated with the Megatower construction firm… How’s the 13th? That’s the latest they can push it.

A cutting wind poured through the open window, drowning out the colonel’s voice completely—none of it reached Yeon-woo’s ears.

Seo-joon’s eyes drifted toward Yeon-woo’s school building. The 13th. That was the day of Yeon-woo’s graduation.

…So even that—
Even that isn’t allowed for me.

Not even being there to see Cha Yeon-woo graduate.

“Yes, that works. Let’s go with that day.”

—…

There wasn’t even the sound of a breath on the other end, as if even sighing would be inappropriate.

“I’ll hang up now.”

After ending the call, Seo-joon took Yeon-woo’s hand with his own, now cold from the wind.

“…Yeon-woo, I’m really sorry, but I won’t be able to come to your graduation.”

The warmth of his touch quietly melted the chill in Seo-joon’s fingers.

“Something’s come up. But after your graduation… once it’s over…”

He wanted to say they’d still go on the trip—but the words wouldn’t come. He couldn’t lie.

“It’s okay. There’s no need for you to come. I’m just picking up my diploma and saying goodbye to my teachers. You don’t need to force yourself to make time, Lieutenant.”

Seo-joon stared at him, unable to blink. On Yeon-woo’s innocent face bloomed spring flowers—too out of season for winter.

“But you’ll stay with me after the graduation, right?”

“…Yeah.”

Even saying that one word was unbelievably hard. Seo-joon turned his head to the open window, letting the wind cool the heat rising around his eyes.

“Go on now, Yeon-woo. You’ll be late.”

The biting wind cut straight to the skin.
