jaewon-calvesâ:
âDancing? Youâre really trying to spoil me,â Jae chided, smiling as he felt Seoâs fingers on his jaw. Itâs a date, Seo had said, and Jae wondered if it was just a colloquialism from someone who was a little tipsy.Â
âOh yes, youâre very sober,â Jae teased. He was glad for the slight buzz he had going, or the blush on his face when Seo described all of what made his coat check idea so enticing would have been a little embarrassing. It was true. Seo had yet to suggest anything Jae would truly say no to. He wanted to give Seo everything he wished for. âWhy would I say no? Iâve been wishing to be somewhere private with you since we got here.âÂ
That was true too. Seo had gotten into his head, set up camp there. No matter what he was doing, there was always a part of Jaeâs mind that was wandering towards Seo, their list, even their quiet moments spent together.
âActively.â Seo confirmed, with a drunken chuckle that he wouldnât admit was closer to a giggle on any sober day. âMy goal is to turn into an insufferable demanding brat, so I can reap the benefits.â Which is joke. Mostly.
He shuffles Jae around, turning the sub in his hands so he can face him, one hand still circled around the otherâs waist under his jacket, keeping Jae firmly in his embrace. Â âYes,â Seo confirms again, lifting the hand thatâs holding the glass only to try and touch his nose and it works passably. âSee, sober.â He did finish the rest of his wine in two large gulps only because he wanted to dispose of the glass and have both his hands on the sub instead. âExactly my point.â Seo lamented, leaning down to kiss Jae, tasting the wine on him. âWe should never leave the bed. We can order everything online and make people deliver it to the doorstep.â
Seo glanced around, deciding to throw caution away, but not before he took one of the half empty bottles at the bar side. âCome on, letâs go find somewhere.â He smirked, reaching for Jaeâs hand.Â
jaewon-calvesâ:
At the sudden question, Jae blinked and then smiled. âI do like Italian. Iâd be glad to get Italian food with you sometime.â It was like Seo was drunkenly asking him out on a date, and Jae couldnât help but chuckle again. Seo was so cute like this.Â
When Jae was admonished, he laughed. âOh? Are you not drunk at all? Really?â He accepted the kiss gratefully, tasting wine on Seoâs lips and dipping in for another taste. âThe coat check? And get caught by some unsuspecting Nantes employee?â He smirked. âWould that excite you?â It wouldnât have been their first foray into getting handsy in a somewhat public space.
âGood.â Seo smiled, pleased with himself, âItalian then dancing.â He lifted a hand to trace at Jaeâs jaw gently. âItâs a date.â
âOf course not.â Gladly, Seo confirmed his sobriety however little proof of it there was. ââm very sober.â The Dominant hummed into the kiss, sighing against Jaeâs lips, finding hard to come up with reasons why the coat check would be a bad idea in actuality. Why were they even here? Why did they ever leave the bed to begin with?
âOh, Iâm sure theyâve seen much worse things on the internet.â Seo laughed. âWhat? The thrill of being caught? Making it hard for you to keep quiet, watching you try and muffle your moans?â He shrugged. âOr the that you never say no when I suggest these things?â Because that out of everything was what truly got to him. Jae wanting him back.Â
lukeomnesâ:
âYes, I am,â Luke replied, grin on his face as if he was proud of his demanding demeanor. There was a part of him that was; heâd never demanded a damn thing in his life. Never had the confidence or the bravery. And there he was - demanding a birthday wish from a hot dominant like it was nothing.
âOh, you havenât seen how cheeky I can be,â Luke continued, watching closely as Seo took a sip of his new drink. He had no interest in the wine itself, but was absolutely fascinated by the way the domâs lips curved around the glass. âI think you want to enable this behavior, sir. You might be surprised - in a good way. I am a very repressed individual.â
Seo narrowed his eyes, âIâm not sure if thatâs a threat or a promise.â He mused, Luke seemed to be enjoying himself, which was probably a good thing.
 âOh, I do? Would I benefit from that?â Tapping at his glass as he pretended to give the idea a good consideration, Seo pursed his lips and shook his head at the end. âNo, that just sounds like brat speech for give me what I want to me. Next time we have a scene we can have a conversation about patience and how itâs a virtue. But,â He laughed. âIâll bite this one time. Happy Birthday, Luke.â Seo offered his glass for a cheer. âLet it not be said Iâm not a benevolent Dominant.âÂ
jaewon-calvesâ:
Jae chuckled at Seo, who seemed attached to his neck. At the question he hummed in affirmation. âI am. I like settings like these, getting dressed up, putting on makeup, drinking good wine, finding my friends.â Jae didnât question it when Seo intertwined their fingers, holding him closer.Â
He get Seo a laugh. âYou become cheesy when you drink wine. Luckily cheese goes with wine very well.â He turned his head to give Seo a kiss to the temple. âYouâre very sweet. Iâm glad youâre enjoying yourself.âÂ
Heâd have asked Seo if he wanted to try any other wines before the end of the event, but Seo seemed to be in a good place right now, just drunk enough, not too drunk. Jae wished that they were alone right now, that they could just lazily touch one another, enjoying each otherâs warmth.Â
Seo decided then, with the surety of any drunk man, that heâll make a point in taking Jae out more often. A date night! At fancy places. Places they could dance. Restaurants with pretentious menus in foreign languages and food that came in portions, the size of which would feed no sane person, served with expensive Italian wine. âDo you like Italian? We should definitely visit an Italian restaurant.â He said, forgetting to share the rest of his train thought.
âYah!â Seo protested, pausing only to kiss Jae when the sub turned, his lips a cool relief on his skin. âI am not drunk.â  He laughed, which did very little to support his stamen, but it was true. Heâd only hadâŚnot very many glasses of wine. âIâd be enjoying myself a lot more in the coat check.â Seo smirked. âIâd be enjoying you a lot more there too.â
lukeomnesâ:
âWell Iâm telling you now, sir,â Luke replied, setting the glass of wine down on the nearest table. âI expect birthday wishes.â He would regret this in the morning and the sober Luke that existed in some deep and dark part of him was shouting at tipsy Luke to stop, but tipsy Luke wasnât interested in listening.Â
âIâm twenty-six now,â he said, almost proudly as he ran his tongue along his bottom lip. âAnd Iâm finally out on my own, so I have to make up for lost time. So are you going to wish me a happy birthday or stand there all night, sir?â
Seo, hypocritically, decided that Luke was drunk. Grinning broadly, nodding at each point the sub listed off as a point of pride.
âIs that how youâre making up for lost time?â He smirked. âSo demanding.â Seo complained, making a gesture for the waiter that passed them by to stop so he could retrieve another glass of wine for himself. âOh, I was going to.â He scrunched his nose, chuckling before taking a sip of his new drink. âBut then you decided to be cheeky so Iâm thinking I shouldnât enable that, so no.â
lukeomnesâ:
Luke was tipsy.Â
Heâd never been allowed to drink until his whole body buzzed - despite the horrible taste the drinks heâd choked down, he now understood why people drank. Looking out across the sea of people, he spotted a familiar dominant getting himself a drink.
Ordinarily, Luke would stay right where he was and ogle Seo from afar.
But this wasnât an ordinary time. Before he could talk himself out of it, he was on his feet and walking in the dominantâs direction.Â
Bravely - and very uncharacteristically - he plucked the drink right from the dominantâs hand and drank it himself. âThatâs for my birthday,â he explained, grimacing slightly from the taste. His belly burned pleasantly despite it. âYou didnât wish me a happy birthdayâŚâ
@seoxhamonâ
His surprise lasted a moment only before Seo recognized Luke as the culprit of his missing drink. Somehow that did not surprise him in the least. He laughed, amused at the expression that crossed the subâs face while he finished the glass of wine. Much like a toddler surprised at a bitter lemon. It didnât seem like Luke was a very experienced drinker by the looks of it.
âOh?â He tsked, clicking his tongue. âAnd whose fault is that?â Brow arched up, he waited not long enough for an actual answer to be delivered. âYouâve got to tell me before you start expecting birthday wishes.â

[text]: Because Iâm your friend and I want you to be happy.Â
[text]: Well, I suppose itâs better to take more time if youâre not sure of what you want.Â
[text]: You arenât playing fair.Â
[text]: I hate when you make sense.Â
[text]: Wait. Who said Iâm unsure? Itâs more complicated than that.Â
[text]: Shit. Do you think he thinks Iâm unsure?Â
jaewon-calvesâ:â
Jae definitely enjoyed himself, sipping wine and mingling with friends, but he was happier when he felt Seo sneak up on him from behind, hand around his waist, lips at his neck. Seo was warm and seemed pleased, and it was infectious. He smiled, sensing Seo was a little tipsy. âDo I?â he asked, though he was sure Seo had said something of the sort before.
âYou seem to be enjoying yourself,â he said with a chuckle, letting his free hand rest on the one Seo had on his waist. He was more than happy to have Seo wrapped around him. It felt natural for them to act this way. It was how they acted in private, and Jae wasnât shy about that. Sometimes, however, it occurred to him that they acted like partners in many ways, and that it felt comfortable, even though they were not partners. He didnât let himself think too hard about it. He was happily warmed by the wine in his hand and the man wrapped around him and there was little point in questioning anything.
âAre you now a officially a wine drinker?â he teased.Â
Seo murmured something response that might have been a confirmation. It was, however, lost in Jaeâs neck. He did smell nice. Seo couldnât quite pinpoint the scent, but it was the same scent that lingered on his sheets lately and wasnât that something.
âAre you? Did you have a good time mingling with the crowd?â He asked, shifting only to mix their fingers together, laying his chin on the otherâs shoulder. Another time when sobriety was closer at hand he might have not considered just how they might look to an outsider, but for now he was just looking to satisfy the craving to have Jae closer.
âI donât know about that.â Seo laughed, âBut I might join you for a glass of wine more often. This is nice. Tastes sweet.â He happened to like the heavy sugary bite of it. âNot as sweet as you though.â
He was maybe starting to see why Jae liked his wines, Seo thought, considering the glass of red in his hand. Almost empty. A grievance he remedied with one quick gulp disposing of it on the nearest empty tray, exchanging it for another. Â
He probably wasnât going to make a full turn here, but he could appreciate a good glass of wine more often perhaps. His cheeks had already pinked up, and he was feeling more than pleasantly buzzed but Seo wasnât quite ready to call it quits. Instead, he looked over the crowd seeking out Jae in the midst.
Not a hard task it turns out, when he spotted the sub rather quickly approaching him from behind a hand sneaking around Jaeâs waist, pulling him close as he balanced the glass of wine in the other.
âYou smell nice.â Seo stated, burying his nose in the side of Jaeâs neck, taking a lungful of his cologne. Familiar. More enticing than the wine. âHave I told you this before?â He asked. âYou always smell so nice.â Chuckling Seo nipped at the skin under his lips.Â

Drew still wasnât used to the formalities and expectations of a single thing in Breton. A glance at his watch as he walked into the venue, noting he was an hour late but with both the babysitter and pizza delivery running late, he had no control over it. He put on a smile and moved slowly around the edge of the room until he ran into a familiar face. Visibly relaxing and smiling as he teased them, half curious, âNot already hammered, are you?â
âYet.â Seo confirmed, laughing. âAsk me again in an hour.â He wasnât usually a wine kind of guy, but the selection tonight was nice and he was already on his second glass, so.Â
He noted the tension in the other manâs shoulders. âYou not enjoying yourself?â Seo asked, head tipped to a side.Â

jaewon-calvesâ:
âI promise,â Jae replied. Of course, heâd be good. Seo said it himself. He was always good. Cheeky, but good. So good that he felt heâd earned each mark Seo left on his skin. If Seo tried, Jae was sure he could be convinced to allow Seo to be here like this for days, to forget his training and just live in this space where he was safe and made to feel cherished. He could live with Seo between his thighs, leaving behind marks and teasing him mercilessly.Â
Jae could always tell the difference between the bruises from training and the bruises left behind by Seoâs lips or fingers, prints left on his body that he looked at in the mirror for an embarrassing amount of time. With each bite and bruise, Jae whimpered and moaned, and the sound of Seo calling him jagiya made him shiver from the sweetness of it. He wanted to hear it again and again. In his mind heâd asked Seo to make him feel like he belonged the the dominant and without hearing him, Seo had obliged.
Jaeâs gaze remained on Seo when the dominant sat back, already missing the warmth of his lips, but he looked at the instructions as an opportunity. An opportunity to earn Seoâs attention, maybe to tease him too. Jae shifted on the bed so he could reach over for the lube. There was a moment when he considered rolling onto his stomach, ass up in the air to give Seo a show, but he wanted to watch Seo too. Spreading his leg, Jae slicked his fingers up with lube and reached down between his thighs. He teased himself first, just rolling his finger around his hole before slowly pushing the first digit in, moaning as he began to work it in and out. His gaze remained on Seo, watching his expression.
Seo watched, transfixed as Jae reached for the nightstand, lube in hand memorizing the lines of his body, lithe muscle and long lines, adding them to the already existing map of Jae in his head. A never ending exploration.
He doesnât quite want to blink, doesnât want to miss a moment as Jae goes about doing as he was told â his hand reaching down between his thighs taking that moment to tease, before he pressed in. And Seo might have done that for him before, but it was different when he got to just watch, collect all the things he might have missed when he was too focused on the way Jaeâs body gave around his fingers. Now he could note the tension on his thighs, the twitch of his chest as he held a breath in. The look in his eye.
Seo licked his lips, teeth catching on the bottom one as he held the subâs eyes for a moment, bent to hiss the ridge of his knee and tightened his grip where his hands laid on Jaeâs skin for a moment.
âKeep going baby, just like that.â
jaewon-calvesâ:
âDaddy,â Jae said, lips still set in a smile, feeling almost a little silly saying the title, but also enjoying it very much. The way Seo had differentiated the titles for him, made it so it was attached to his own wants and needs, made it feel better to say it, knowing it aligned with how he wanted to feel tonight.
With his shirt gone and Seoâs shirt gone and Seoâs lips on his chest, Jae felt cool, newly bared skin turn warm with want, and he reached out to touch Seoâs skin as well, to map out his shoulders, and the planes of his back. A small whimper sounded at the back of his throat as he felt Seoâs teeth dragging around his nipple, and he looked down to watch the dominant go lower.
Jae gave a breathy laugh as his pants were removed clumsily, both of them moving just a little out of sync for a moment, but once the were gone, Seoâs touch was afforded to his thighs, which shivered at the attention. The anticipation of it was maddening, as Seo avoided his neglected cock, but he like the pace that was being set, the amount of attention Seo was giving him. Heâd asked to be feel cherished, and Seo was obliging.
At the question, he nodded his head, fingers brushing through Seoâs hair as the bruise formed on his hip. A bruise that was purposeful, not a result of his clumsiness or his training failures. âIâll be good, daddy,â he said, his voice quiet.
âYou will be?â Seo asked, echoing back, teasing words not meant to do much more than fill the space with his voice, Jaeâs voice. Add another point of connection. âYou promise?â More than his fingers on Jaeâs skin, his mouth on him. Palpable presence everywhere. As if he could surround Jae with himself, the metaphorical center in his universe. He was now, Seo supposed, in this moment there was nothing else that mattered.
âYou are always so good for me.â He murmured the words fond on his tongue in between peppering kisses around the little victorious marks heâd left of himself on Jaeâs skin â bitten half-moons and pink splashes of color that stood giddy on the subâs pale skin. âSuch a sweet thing, jagiya. Like a peach. I could eat you for days.â He liked placing those next to the darker bruises that Jae had, the ones from long hours of grueling training that Seo knew nothing of. Little manifestos of Seoâs care stitched there to make them less terrifying. They are to him. Less in their physicality, though, that too jars him. But itâs their unfamiliarity.
He thought about the things Jae was probably missing. The partner that knew how to provide care in situations like this. Understood the ups and downs of competition, how taxing it must be. How tiring, from experience and not assumption. Those are worries for another day. Thoughts to deny and ignore. Seoâs good at compartmentalizing. He can bundle them up in a box to be kicked somewhere in the backs of his consciousness to eat at him another day. When heâs alone. When Jaeâs not in his hands and he can pretend that what they have isnât all that meaningful, just fun.
But for right now, Jaeâs under him, body pliant open and vulnerable â like a kitten on itâs back, belly up with no protection. Right now Seo feels every bit of how much Jae means. âThereâs lube in the top drawer.â He directs the sub, sits back on his hunches, âPrep yourself for me. Make it slow, I want to watch.â
