"Um…I haven't washed my hands." Seeing Yeonjun's gloomy face, Soobin felt guilty as he understood why Yeonjun was down.
"Huh?" Yeonjun surprisingly looked at him.
"I…mean, don't…touch my hands…they…they're dirty because I haven't washed them after using the toilet." Soobin replied very shyly.
"Ah! And I thought…hahaha! You silly! That doesn't matter to me." Yeonjun chuckled and felt relieved as he understood Soobin wasn't mad at him. Soobin's eyes couldn't met Yeonjun's as he was too embarrassed.
"But, it does to me. And I forgot earlier because I was focused on you." Soobin said in a low voice. Yeonjun smirked while trying his best to suppress it. He was also feeling shy, but acted cool.
"Wait a minute!" Yeonjun stood up and rushed outside.
"Wh…" before Soobin he could say a word, Yeonjun went away.
Yeonjun returned with a bowl and a small, white towel. He noticed Soobin slightly lifting the blanket to check his leg. As soon as Soobin saw Yeonjun, he quickly covered his leg again.
While approaching him, Yeonjun saw the confusion on Soobin's face. He placed the towel on the table and took the bowl to the washroom. After a moment, he came back with the bowl filled with water. Soobin remained puzzled and curious but didn't ask any questions, thinking he'd get an explanation soon. Yeonjun placed the bowl on the table, soaked the towel in the water, and then wrung it out, glancing at Soobin.
"Give your hand to me." Yeonjun extended his hand towards Soobin with a bright smile.
"Hm?" Soobin raised his hand and moved it towards Yeonjun with his questioning eyes. Yeonjun smirked and took his hand and started wiping it with the towel.
"Ah! Y-you don't…." Soobin was surprised and touched as he never got the treatment from anyone before.
"Don't worry, I put some liquid soap in it. So, your hands are gonna be sparkling in a moment." Yeonjun was focused on his job to clean Soobin's hand nicely. Soobin felt his heart was racing faster and tears started to fill his eyes. He quickly looked at another way and wiped his eyes with his other hand.
"Your fingers are really long." Yeonjun said while rubbing his hand gently with the towel.
"Are they?" Soobin felt shy again. Nobody ever complimented him like this so it was a very new feeling to him. He tried to grin, but failed as he was touched.
"They're really beautiful. They seem a little swollen for now. But, trust me. I've seen them before as well. You've got really gorgeous hands." Yeonjun looked at Soobin and discovered tears in his eyes.
"Huh? What happened? Does it hurt anywhere?" Yeonjun was surprised to see his tears.
"N-no! Something must've gone in my eyes." Soobin started to rub his eyes with the other hand.
"Let me see." Yeonjun grabbed Soobin's hand and gently pulled it down to see his eyes. Initially, he had no ulterior motives; he just wanted to make sure if Soobin's eyes were okay.
After Moving closer, he examined Soobin's eyes, placing his thumb under them and slowly brushed it against his skin. As they stared at each other, their heartbeats seemed hearable from outside. Yeonjun inched closer, his gaze shifted from Soobin's eyes to his nose and then to his lips. He leaned in, nearly kissing Soobin when Soobin pushed him away and turned his head.
"Ah! I-I..." Yeonjun gulped and stepped back, feeling displeased and guilty for being too forward. Meanwhile, Soobin looked downward, his eyes were restless as if he was thinking about something unpleasant.
"Umm... I haven't wiped it, right?" Yeonjun said, trying to quickly regain Soobin's attention. He took Soobin's other hand and started gently rubbing it with the wet towel. Soobin gasped softly and looked at Yeonjun, pressing his lips together to suppress a smile, finding Yeonjun charming.
"How did it happen?" Yeonjun asked, caressing the wound on Soobin's hand. Soobin noticed the bandage had been removed, revealing the cut marks clearly. As he didn't know how he should reply, he remained silent. Yeonjun understood and didn't press further. Instead, he focused on consoling Soobin, hoping to alleviate his worries and sadness.
"Does it hurt?" He asked with his soft voice.
"Um-hm." Soobin shook his head and replied.
"That's a relief." Yeonjun finished wiping his hands and stood up as he knew he wouldn't be able to subdue his feelings and desire anymore if he kept touching him like this. He put the towel in the bowl again and rinsed it well. Then he came to Soobin again. He took off the blanket from him when Soobin shouted in tiny,
"Ah! What are you doing?" He tried to cover his feet again. Yeonjun chuckled and sat on the edge of the bed, near his feet.
"Let me see! Let me clean your feet as well!" Yeonjun said a bit loudly. He understood Soobin wasn't letting him touch his legs.
"Don't! They're…. ugly." Soobin said loudly at first, but then mumbled.
"You're worried about that? Hahaha! How cute of you! They're…" Yeonjun smiled and held his feet forcefully to start brushing the towel on his feet.
"Not ugly at all." Yeonjun said when he finally stopped chuckling.
After wiping, Yeonjun couldn't resist himself any longer. He pecked on his foot before Soobin could react. Soobin was both astonished and embarrassed, his face turned red despite the numbness that dulled the sensation. He quickly moved his legs and tried to hide them inside the blanket, but failed. Seeing his reaction, Yeonjun was mischievous. He sighed, smirked and went to wash the towel while shaking his head slowly.

[The next evening]
Although Soobin didn't agree to come and bother Yeonjun, he couldn't refuse his stubborn insistence. Soobin's leg was almost healed and he could walk by himself. Yeonjun went to visit his mom, leaving him all alone in the house. Soobin was in Yeonjun's bedroom. As he was completely unfamiliar to the place, he didn't dare to wander around the house while the owner was away. As he didn't have anything to do, he wanted to take a shower to lessen his boredom. He took off his t-shirt and looked for a place to put it as he was unsure where to place it to avoid dirtying the bed.
On the other side, Yeonjun entered the house cheerfully, with some packed food. He left the food on his living room's table and started looking for Soobin. He guessed his lover might be inside the bedroom where he left him earlier. So, he went towards his bedroom. As he approached the bedroom quietly, Soobin couldn't notice that Yeonjun arrived. He paused at his door, he was overwhelmed with the sight he saw inside.
Soobin was wearing half pants and his upper body was fully naked. Though Yeonjun was just seeing the bare back of Soobin, he found it incredibly alluring. He couldn't help but stare at Soobin's perky and sexy back. Wasn't it the thing that he was attracted to at the first glance? He never could imagine he'd be able to see him like this in his own house. He gulped because of the tension, lust and excitement he was feeling. He slowly approached him while Soobin was putting his shirt on the chair handle, beside the bed. When he stood up properly, a pair of hands touched his naked back and stomach.
Soobin gasped as he was startled. The next moment, he understood whose hands they were and tried to look back. Soobin could feel his racing heartbeat as well as Yeonjun's. Yeonjun hugged him from behind and buried his face in Soobin's back. He was breathing heavily because of the temptation that was running through all over his body. He slowly drove his hand and caressed Soobin's neck, chest and stomach while his lips were busy smooching the back of Soobin.
"Ummhg!" A weird, but heavy moan came from Soobin's mouth, making him fully surprised and embarrassed.
It was a strange and new feeling for Soobin. He had never felt anything like it before. Although he usually hated being touched by others, he found himself liking Yeonjun's touch. He started breathing hard and completely leaned his body against Yeonjun, closing his eyes to savor the soft touch of Yeonjun's lips on his neck.
*Hmph* *Huff* *Huhh*
the unknown sounds kept coming from his mouth and he couldn't control them.
While he nearly gave up to his urge and started enjoying it, his unpleasant memory flashed before his eyes and he gasped out loud. Yeonjun was surprised as he thought Soobin was hurt somewhere.
"W-what h-happened?" Yeonjun asked, still hugging him. Soobin quickly detached Yeonjun's hands and moved away, breathing heavily and avoiding eye contact.
"I-I... um..." Soobin gulped, unable to find the words.
"Ah! I-I think... I shou—" Yeonjun couldn't finish as Soobin rushed to the washroom. Yeonjun felt a pang of guilt, regretting that he shouldn't have touched Soobin like that. He knew Soobin was sensitive and that such actions could trigger him. But he chose to listened to his urges instead of his better judgment. He bent down on the floor, covering his head with his arms, then raised his head and rubbed it vigorously.
"Fuck!" he mumbled while messing his hair. He was angry at nobody but himself.
