If You Want Me - Episode 31
<Episode 31>
Was it Do-gyeom’s style, or was Seo-won drinking well? Each time Seo-won sipped and emptied the glass, Do-gyeom naturally refilled it. As a result, it seemed Seo-won had drunk more than half of the wine.
After a few glasses, his head suddenly spun.
‘Yoon Seo-won, you’re drunk.’
He didn’t think he particularly showed signs of being drunk, but Do-gyeom quickly noticed Seo-won’s change and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.
But why was he smiling? He wondered if his appearance was funny, or if he was mocking him for getting drunk on just this much.
Seo-won barely held onto his hazy mind and answered as nonchalantly as possible.
‘I guess the alcohol content is higher than I thought…’
‘No matter how sweet, alcohol is still alcohol.’
Right… He had forgotten it was alcohol because it was sweet, but it seemed alcohol was alcohol after all.
Phew. His insides were boiling. As Seo-won exhaled at the hot feeling, Do-gyeom stood up from his seat as if he was done drinking and said,
‘Stop drinking now. We need to work.’
‘Ah… right.’
Come to think of it, he had come here to work. Seo-won also put down his glass and stood up from the chair, unsteadily heading towards the bed.
But when he had only taken a step or two, Do-gyeom smiled and grabbed Seo-won’s wrist.
‘Disappointed?’
‘A little.’
Seo-won usually answered Do-gyeom in a pleasing way, but perhaps because he had been drinking, he answered more honestly than usual.
‘Grant me just one request? Then I’ll let you drink that wine anytime, whether it’s one bottle or two.’
‘Request…? What is it?’
It was unusual for Do-gyeom to make a request. Since he was a person who lacked nothing and could easily obtain anything, he wasn’t someone who would bow his pride and make a request to someone.
So it was interesting that he was asking Seo-won for something. As Seo-won looked at him with curious eyes, he raised the corners of his mouth slyly and opened his mouth.
‘Today, you move on your own.’
‘…Pardon?’
Move, what does that mean…? As Seo-won hesitated, not understanding the meaning right away, Do-gyeom tightly gripped Seo-won’s butt and pulled him close.
In the blink of an eye, as the distance narrowed, a thick alpha pheromone mixed with the sweet scent of the wine they had just been drinking wafted strongly.
‘I’m telling you to take the lead.’
‘…’
Take the lead…? For a moment, his mind went blank as if it had turned into a white sheet of paper.
The wine was delicious enough to think ‘alcohol can be this tasty’, but it wasn’t something he wanted to the point of begging.
But… wouldn’t there be a reason for making such a request? Was he tired of Seo-won lying still like a log, unable to do anything each time they had sex? Thinking he was making that demand for that reason, he couldn’t refuse. He wanted to please Do-gyeom more than the delicious wine.
However, when he actually tried to grant the request, his body stiffened even more. Because he had always followed Do-gyeom’s lead, he had no idea what to do or how to do it.
What did the young master usually do? It seemed he usually started with a kiss…
Although he was only imitating what he had seen somewhere, Do-gyeom was the only one he had overlapped bodies with. So Seo-won decided to follow his example.
Seo-won stood on tiptoe to match the height of Do-gyeom, who was more than 10cm taller. Then, grabbing Do-gyeom’s clothing and pulling it down, he pressed his own lips against Do-gyeom’s neat ones.
Soft and tender flesh touched his lips. Whenever they kissed, he thought that although it was just pressing lips together, it felt more embarrassing and lovely than any other act. More so than overlapping bodies… Although it was a one-sided feeling on his part, he liked it because it felt like sharing love.
If Do-gyeom knew his feelings, it seemed he would no longer kiss him, so he had to hide his desires tightly. Feeling slightly timid and fluffy emotions welling up, when Seo-won lightly licked Do-gyeom’s lips with his tongue, his lips naturally parted.
Smack, smack… As he stuck out his tongue, Seo-won lightly sucked on it. Recalling previous experiences, he thought Do-gyeom liked it when he did this and imitated it.
However, it was still the first time he directly led a kiss, so it was a clumsy caress that he couldn’t complain even if Do-gyeom criticized it as a childish movement.
That’s when it happened.
‘Hnng…’
Do-gyeom, who had been quietly watching with his eyes lowered, suddenly grabbed Seo-won’s nape and pulled him close.
Seo-won flinched at the pouncing action and tried to step back, but Do-gyeom wrapped his arms around his waist, blocking his retreat.
Do-gyeom opened and closed his lips as if to devour Seo-won’s lips. He had told Seo-won to take the lead, but now he was being much more aggressive, leaving no room for Seo-won to do anything and getting swept up.
‘Young master, ha, mmph…!’
It was a thirsty and desperate kiss. Like someone who was going crazy with thirst. It wasn’t the first time he had kissed him, but this feeling was new.
He had to tell him to stop for a moment, but Do-gyeom didn’t give him a chance to speak. Even when he tried to push him away by grabbing his shoulders, it was futile.
When he came to his senses, he was lying on the bed, and his lips that had been bitten and sucked for a long time felt slick with saliva and swollen.
As he looked up at Do-gyeom with confused eyes as if a storm had passed, he whispered softly in Seo-won’s ear.
‘Don’t go drinking anywhere.’
‘…’
At the commanding words, Seo-won blankly nodded his head in agreement.
Thinking about it now, he doesn’t understand why he heard such a thing. He had only kissed him and nothing more. Doesn’t it seem like he was scolded for being drunk and disorderly?
As he was lost in old memories, watching people at other tables tilt their glasses, the friendly employee appeared again with a large bowl.
“Trout sashimi is here!”
At the employee’s words, Seo-won came to his senses with a start and shifted his gaze to the trout sashimi that had been placed on the table.
It was actually his first time eating trout sashimi, but the red fish flesh looked soft at a glance, and it looked fresh and delicious with a glossy sheen.
Just that made him swallow his saliva, and the employee set down a white bowl full of vegetables like lettuce, cabbage, carrots, and peppers, and explained,
“You can mix the vegetables and spicy pepper paste to your liking and eat it.”
“Thank you.”
Actually, Seo-won thought it would be just regular sashimi since it was a sashimi restaurant, but it seemed trout sashimi had a slightly different way of eating.
The employee kindly explained, but Seo-won only nodded his head, not fully understanding, so he glanced at other tables to see how they ate it.
He put a few pieces of trout sashimi on top of the bowl full of vegetables, sprinkled minced garlic, spicy pepper paste, and sesame oil. Finally, he sprinkled bean powder, completing a fancy meal.
“Mmm…!”
As he mixed it vigorously and took a big bite, Seo-won unintentionally let out an exclamation as soon as he put the spoon in his mouth.
Whether it was because he hadn’t eaten sashimi in a long time or the trout sashimi itself was delicious, it was chewy, light, and so tasty. The spicy pepper paste and bean powder seemed to add a point and stimulate his appetite even more.
Until just now, he had been very worried about whether he could eat raw food because he was pregnant, but as if he had never had such worries, Seo-won focused on the meal in a daze. He wasn’t usually the type to go crazy over food like this, but these days his appetite was quite extreme.
Having quickly emptied the bowl, Seo-won looked at the empty bowl with slightly regretful eyes. In his current mood, he wanted to eat spicy fish stew too, but it was too much for one person.
“Next time, I should come with someone else…”
This place is really good. There aren’t many people he knows in the village and no peers, so he doesn’t know if there will be anyone to come with…
Seo-won swallowed his regret and stood up from his seat.

After paying the somewhat expensive price for a single meal and leaving, the weather had turned cool. He wasn’t sure if the countryside was originally like this, but the daily temperature range here was particularly large.
It’s chilly… I should go home now.
Rubbing his arms with his hands as goosebumps rose from the chilly air, he took a step. Passing the busy area that was at the level of a town center, he walked along the ridge between rice fields on a path with dust flying, when he saw a tall person smoking a cigarette.
“Done playing?”
“…”
In the dim light, Do-gyeom was holding a cigarette with a bored look in his eyes.
He never even thought Do-gyeom would still be in this village. Even if he hadn’t left, he thought he would be waiting at home…
Facing him as he looked at Seo-won with eyes that seemed to know everything, his body stiffened.
“…Young Master.”
The uplifted mood from eating something delicious instantly sank.
As Seo-won stopped in his tracks, Do-gyeom dropped the cigarette he was smoking, put out the ember with the tip of his shoe, and strode over.
With each wide step narrowing the distance, he became anxious like someone being chased.
“W-why are you following me? I told you n-not to follow me.”
“Because I thought you would do this.”
Do-gyeom answered, standing right in front of Seo-won.
He usually only smoked one or two cigarettes, but for some reason, the pungent smell of cigarettes was vibrating from his body today.
