Chen Yu facepalmed inside his heart.
It was true that the original owner and, by extension he himself, had been obsessed with fighting to the point of excluding everything else, but did this bear child have to be so blunt?
Hou Yi didn't give him time to respond, however, pushing his back against the room door and nibbling on his ear. A torrent of heat brushed across his sensitive skin as he glided his hands under Jin Yongguang's clothes, pushing down his uniform and whispering, "All you have to do is let me touch you a little, just like this..."
The long fingers skimmed over Ah Guang's round hips and probed slightly between them, he sucked on Jin Yongguang's reddened lips to distract him from the intrusion. Rubbing his arousal against the other's, Hou Yi found to his delight that the other boy had also been stimulated, he slid one of his hands to Ah Guang's front, stroking the stiffened object and rasping in a magnetic voice, "Do you want me too, Ah Guang?"
Chen Yu moaned, thrusting involuntarily into the big palm until Hou Yi slipped himself out of his pants and tightened Jin Yongguang's fingers around both of their burning hot lengths. Guiding his grip up and down with one hand, Hou Yi curled his lips and stripped Ah Guang's shirt off to reveal the silky expanse of bronze skin. "Do you?" he pushed closer, brushing his fingertips over the nape of Ah Guang's neck and making him shiver.
Chen Yu shakily leaned his head back against the door. Eyes half-closed and cheeks flushed in pleasure, he candidly replied, "En, Ah Yi, I want to come..."
Hou Yi's face darkened, his grip on Ah Guang's neck tightening briefly. "Want to come with whom? Anyone will do?"
Rolling his eyes inside, Chen Yu showed a confused expression. "I-I'm not sure, I haven't done this with anyone else. Ah Yi, you have?"
Guilt pierced Hou Yi's heart, he kissed Ah Guang's temple to hide his turmoil. He'd been too hasty, he had no right to demand that Ah Guang only look at him, at least he didn't yet. But he would make sure that he had no opportunity to turn to anyone else from this instant forward. Having decided, he gently proclaimed, "Ah Guang, neither of us will do this with anyone else in this lifetime."
Chen Yu didn't have a chance to react before his chin was nudged up for another kiss, his hand was maneuvered by Hou Yi's to move faster, pistoning from the roots of their hard lengths to the tips, their hips nudging together. A few moments later, both of their breaths sped up, an ambiguous smell filled the room as they grew more and more excited until Hou Yi bit down on Ah Guang's neck, causing them to release at the same time across each other's stomachs.
When Chen Yu nearly fell, having lost strength from bliss, Hou Yi quickly stepped closer so that his body was trapped between him and the door, keeping him upright and tenderly patting his back to soothe him. Stuck so closely together, however, Hou Yi's attention was caught by something else, he gazed down as if fascinated at the white traces left across Ah Guang's tan skin, smearing it in with an elegant finger to mark him completely, in every way possible.
At that thought, he was ready again, he swept Ah Guang up and carried him to the barracks bed.

The next morning, Chen Yu was reminded by his aching muscles that while his lover's approach in bed may vary depending on his character, he was always incredibly relentless. Hou Yi was no different, he'd maintained a deceptively gentle and mild appearance from the beginning through the end, when in reality he'd been persistently pressing his fingers against his inner walls, sucking him until his vision blurred, filling him to the brim again and again...
Sitting up, Chen Yu scrubbed his eyes open and glanced down, confirming that Hou Yi had cleaned him up before they collapsed, but the instant he drew out of Hou Yi's embrace, the boy drowsily reached out from the sheets to pull him back into his embrace, revealing his nude athletic body and tousled hair. Chen Yu's urge to smack him away subsided at the sight of his features which were softened in sleep, instead he lay back down and studied the precisely sculpted face for a while.
In the end, laughing at himself, he kissed his lover's chin and fell asleep again, unaware that Hou Yi had woken up the moment he had, ready to cage him in if he had tried to escape. Trapping Ah Guang's legs between his, Hou Yi tenderly pressed his lips against the boy's temple, smiling at how cute he was. The boy must love him as well, it was just that he hadn't identified it as a romantic love yet.
Later that afternoon, a girl knocked on Jin Yongguang's door while he was still recovering from the overexertion, causing Hou Yi to frown. Recognizing the student as the one who'd flirted with Ah Guang by offering him that ugly plant, his expression further stiffened, but he calmly inquired, "Can we help you?"
Having been stunned by Hou Yi coming out of Jin Yongguang's room in the first place, the girl was struck speechless for a moment at that possessive 'we.' Nevertheless, she soon cleared her throat and, restraining her bubbling curiosity, reported, "The instructors have sent me to inform both of you that we are scheduled to board the space shuttle for the academy tonight. Also, I'm not sure if you and Yongguang have received the final results of the assessment trials, so they've been recorded here." Saying so, she clicked on her communicator to transfer over a list of names through the military network that the students had been granted temporary access to, then hesitantly asked, "Is...is Yongguang all right now? I heard he was pretty severely injured."
Tapping his fingers against the doorframe, Hou Yi swept his eyes to the floor. In a mellow tone, he responded, "Thank you for your concern, naturally I'll take good care of him." But before he could shut the door in her face, Ah Guang stumbled out, wearing just his loose hospital pants and hiding a yawn behind the back of his hand.
With a voice hoarse from sleep and fatigue, he called out, "Ah Yi, what is it?"
The girl's heart jumped. Wow, who knew Hou Yi would be so passionate, look at all those marks...Secretly snickering, she contentedly remarked to herself, it seemed her ship was sailing very smoothly ah!
Hou Yi's face darkened, how could Ah Guang be so careless, showing so much of his body to an outsider? Although, doing so did definitively prove that he was taken...Nevertheless, unwilling to allow others to see Ah Guang, he nodded an acknowledgment to the gawking girl, closed the door, and dressed the boy in a hospital shirt, all the while relaying the news.
Reviewing the rankings, Chen Yu's eyes widened. "No way, you got first place? You didn't even have your own mecha at the end!"
Hou Yi finished buttoning up the shirt and moved on to combing the other's bedhead, explaining, "I kept the mecha ignition keys I'd collected in my uniform pocket, and the rule was that students would be failed if they didn't have any keys upon arrival at the assembly point."
Chen Yu narrowed his eyes, humming. It wasn't unreasonable that Hou Yi had taken care of more of their peers than he had, since he'd become engrossed in having fun while fighting. Well, it wasn't a big deal. "Ah Yi, then you've won our bet, what's your wish?"
Hou Yi didn't speak immediately, instead he pressed the freshly groomed Ah Guang back down onto the bed, silently clinging to the slim body for several minutes. At last, he murmured, "Ah Guang, promise me that you won't hate me no matter what. So you can't push me away, you can't ignore me, you can't abandon me ever again, okay?"
Chen Yu froze. Despite the vague phrasing, his words implied that he had remembered something, perhaps from another life...
Suppressing his anxiety, he seriously responded, "Ah Yi, you're my best friend, of course I won't leave you. What put such an idea in your mind?"
Hou Yi propped himself up on his elbows to look at Ah Guang's expression, searching for any sign of reluctance. "Nothing, I just have this feeling that you might go away from me someday, but I never want to lose you..."
Grinning to cover up the uncomfortable stuffiness in his chest, Chen Yu promised. "Even if we separate, we'll always find each other again. Don't worry Ah Yi, you're the one who matters the most to me in this world, in every world."
His mood lightened, Hou Yi smiled back and locked their lips together again.
