MUL - Chapter 14

Without hesitation, I lifted the glass and poured it all into my mouth at once, gulping it down. The more I swallowed, the sweeter it tasted, but my head grew dizzier. Nam Kangwoo and Seo Jaehoon, sitting in front of me, multiplied into several figures, then shrank back to one.

Why are they looking at me like that?

"Why?"

The question I was only thinking kept bursting out of my mouth, which was embarrassing. I covered my mouth without realizing it.

"I keep talking. Why is this happening?"

I was spouting nonsense.

Someone refilled my glass. Judging by the hand that popped out from the side, it must be Mo Taehee. Instead of thanking him, I poured the drink straight into my mouth. I was drinking better than I thought.

"Did Kangwoo kiss you?"

Mo Taehee whispered softly in my ear, tickling me. I shook my head and replied, also quietly.

"Yeah! He did! He did!"

Was I quiet? I couldn't tell, but I thought I answered softly.

Nam Kangwoo, sitting in front of me, chuckled softly at my answer. That sharp-eared bastard. He must have heard everything.

"Put a door on my room. Seriously, how can I not have a door in a villa where you can open the door with your thumb...? Where's my privacy in this private place..."

I suddenly felt gloomy.

I was rambling to myself and probably collapsed onto the table. I heard someone cursing, but I couldn't tell who it was. Judging by the loud voice, it was probably Seo Jaehoon.

After a few lurches, I was lifted and carried in someone's arms. It smelled sweet and nice, with a subtle scent of alcohol. I don't have a door in my room. I clutched the hem of the clothes of one of the three who was carrying me and mumbled, "I don't have a door."

"I don't have a door... Shit... Everyone else has one, but I'm the only one without a door..."

"Ha Yeoul, why have you started cursing so much?"

"...I don't know... I'm dizzy."

I rubbed my face against the soft fabric. I wished the alcohol would wear off, but I seemed to be getting even more drunk. I heard a click, so it must be one of the guys with a door. Right, I'm the only one in this house without a door.

"Ah... I'm getting drunk, so drunk."

Hot breaths kept escaping from my lips. I lifted my eyelids, which had been closed, at the sensation of the soft sheets against my back. Maybe it was because I was drunk, but the face in front of me was incredibly handsome. Who was it...?

"Who are you..."

"Guess."

"Who was it..."

"Say my name, Ha Yeoul."

The soft voice was familiar. I mumbled the name that immediately came to mind in a small, broken voice.

"Seo Jaehoon."

The scent that always came from Seo Jaehoon permeated the bedding and the room. A sweet and nice smell.

"You... You smell good, really."

My eyelids were heavy, and I blinked slowly. Each time I closed and opened my eyes, Seo Jaehoon's face came closer. What was going on? Wasn't he too close?

I lifted my hand, which had been drooping on the bed, and grabbed Seo Jaehoon's shoulder. I probably tried to push him away... but my arm was caught by Seo Jaehoon and went behind his neck.

"That's right. I wanted to too, Ha Yeoul."

Hot lips overlapped with mine. Through my closed eyelids, I could see long, dense eyelashes.

Ah, this... I can't even curse anymore.

The flesh that entered my lips opened them and immediately intertwined with my tongue. Unlike the two who had been in and out of my mouth as if it were their own, Seo Jaehoon sucked on my tongue as if he were going to pull it into his own mouth.

The root of my tongue was numb. I groaned involuntarily. Seo Jaehoon bit down on the tip of my tongue with his teeth and gnawed on my plump lower lip.

"It hurts, it hurts..."

Tears welled up at the tingling sensation on the tip of my tongue. My voice, crushed in the touching mouths, broke. Seo Jaehoon, who firmly wrapped my arm, which kept losing strength and falling down, around his neck, climbed onto the bed and overlapped his body with mine.

It was heavy and strange. Something hard that had hardened between Seo Jaehoon's legs touched my lower abdomen and rubbed against it.

"Hng... Ah..."

An unknown moan scratched my throat and escaped. Seo Jaehoon's hand dug into my clothes. This crazy bastard...

He repeated the act of attaching and detaching his lips, then mixed his tongue deeply again. The wet sound stimulated my hearing.

"Umm... I don't want to... Don't... Ugh."

I quickly spat out the words between the lips that occasionally fell. But I couldn't finish my sentence properly. I would only utter about halfway through what I was trying to say, and then Seo Jaehoon's lips would block my mouth again.

I couldn't put much strength into my whole body. Seo Jaehoon's hand, which had risen to my chest, wandered incessantly over the flat flesh that had nothing to touch.

"Hng... Hng... I don't want to, I don't want to..."

The sudden sensation brought fear. Questions floated around in my head: Why was he touching my body like that? Why was he so excited? Why was he doing this to me?

I don't want to; don't do it, a voice squeezed out between the sobs that burst out.

Seo Jaehoon's lips, which had been sucking and chewing on my tongue and lips, slowly fell away. My mouth was all bitter. I could taste blood, as if my tongue had been cut by sharp teeth. The arm that had been wrapped around Seo Jaehoon's neck fell onto the bed.

"Don't cry."

"Hng-"

"Am I scary now too?"

"Why, why are you doing this... You're all... weird... scary..."

Seo Jaehoon, who was wiping away the tears flowing down the corners of my eyes with an affectionate touch, lowered his head and dropped his lips on my forehead.

"I'm not going to hold back anymore either."

"..."

"I'm going to have you."

The incomprehensible words hit my ears accurately.

I lifted my eyelids and put Seo Jaehoon in my wavering tears, repeated the act of letting him go, and then lost consciousness. It was fortunate that I was drunk.

***

I was being held tightly in someone's arms. Before I could even be embarrassed, I felt a terrible hangover.

Ah... my stomach was twisted. I felt nauseous, as if something was about to pour out.

I pushed the body that was pulling my waist and shoulders into an embrace, but this bastard pressed his body even closer to mine. Who was it? Whose room was I in?

"I... my stomach... my stomach doesn't feel good... let me go... Huh?"

I retched at the smell of alcohol that wafted out every time I spoke. The guy who was holding me, noticing my unusual shaking, jumped up.

"Ha Yeoul, Are you okay?"

Seo Jaehoon's eyes with hair a complete mess, widened. Seo Jaehoon was handsome even when he had just woken up. Truly, watching Seo Jae-hoon, I felt that being handsome was really all that mattered.

I covered my mouth with my hand, which didn't have much strength, and mumbled, "I feel sick."

Seo Jaehoon blinked his sleepy eyes a few times and then went straight down from the bed. He lifted my half-raised body and carried me out of the room. He strode into my room, which still had no door, and put me down in the bathroom.

"Do your business and come out."

"...Ugh... Okay... Thank, thank you—"

I couldn't finish my sentence after all. When I hurriedly raised my hand to cover my mouth, Seo Jaehoon noticed and left the bathroom. I thought he had no tact, but thankfully he left on his own before I made a disgusting scene.

I grabbed the toilet and threw up everything in my stomach. I only threw up clear water, as if I had only drunk alcohol, and eventually threw up yellow stomach acid. 

The sour taste made me retch again. I was about to throw up my stomach after retching a few more times, but I stopped retching at the rough touch that grabbed and lifted the back of my neck.

"Take it easy. You're going to ruin your stomach."

I wiped the saliva that stretched out on my lips with the back of my hand and looked at Seo Jaehoon. Why was this bastard so sensitive from the morning...? Ah, and why did my lips hurt so much?

I was washed all over my face by Seo Jaehoon's hands and dragged out like a paper doll. Then, against my will, I was seated at the dining table. He muttered curses the whole time, true to his foul-mouthed nature.

Seo Jaehoon, who was rummaging through the sink cabinets with a bang, took something out and scooped out the sticky liquid with a spoon. Honey? Was he going to make me honey water...?

I felt ticklish at the thought of him taking care of me in that state. Seo Jaehoon also frowned from time to time, as if he had a terrible hangover.

I quietly followed his back and looked around. Did Park Min-ah go home? Park Min-ah seemed to have drunk a lot yesterday too. I tried to recall the memories of last night, which I didn't remember well.

So, Park Min-ah said I was sexy, I think. Why did she say that...?

Even if I thought hard, I couldn't remember the context, but I just remembered hearing that. What was sexy? Maybe... my face.

I rubbed my chin. It must be my face. I was having ridiculous thoughts when I flinched at the mug that was placed in front of me with a bang.

"Drink."

"Huh? Oh. Thank you, thank you..."

"You don't remember yesterday, do you?"

"Huh...? Ah... No, that's... That... Uh..."

I carefully looked at Seo Jaehoon and nodded. I was worried that I might have done something wrong because of the memories that had been erased cleanly at some point. Judging by that bastard's reaction, it seemed like I had done something wrong, but I had to know what it was to apologize.

I rolled my eyes for no reason and lifted the honey water in front of me. I blew on it and took a sip, and the tip of my tongue tingled. I must have bitten my tongue while drinking alcohol, and the tip of my tongue felt hot when it touched the hot water.

"Ouch...!"

"Why?"

"I think... I bit my tongue yesterday."

I answered, trying to recall the memory of biting my tongue, which I didn't remember. In the meantime, I was even looking at him.

I smiled awkwardly at Seo Jaehoon and took another sip of honey water.

"I know a way to make you remember what you've forgotten."​
