Seungkwan checked the two of them in for a room with two beds.
The man at the counter gave him quite the glare. Seungkwan let it slide considering how shady he looked hanging a well-dressed man over his not-so-well-dressed figure.
Vernon was a slump of mess but they were somehow able to make it into the bedroom. The middle floor, fairly well-kept, but probably not close to a wealthy man's standards. He wondered if Vernon might just pass out from shock seeing how absolutely regular it looked.
Oh, but Vernon's not that type of man... even he goes to convenience stores for their 'great deals.' Seungkwan chuckled and repeated his words in his head.
"Here we are, pretty boy." Seungkwan huffed, slumping Vernon back first on the bed.
"A nice bed, a darling caretaker and..." Seungkwan opened up the miniature fridge and pulled out a bottle of water that had a nice fat price of three dollars taped on it. "Some overpriced water to sober you up."
He threw the laying man the water bottle and Vernon grabbed it and sluggishly lifted himself up on the bed and turned the cap.
"Emphasis on darling caretaker." Vernon tipped the bottle to him before gulping down the liquid.
"Mm. You still have the energy to flirt," Seungkwan crossed his arms and walked over to the other side of the room, on the bed beside Vernon's.
"Thank you for looking out for me..." Vernon said, his cheeks were warm but he convinced himself it was because of the alcohol.
"Oh, no big deal," Seungkwan said falling back on the bed, arms spread. "It's not like I could leave you there for someone else to take advantage of you."
"Haha," Vernon chuckled and shook his head. "Do I really look like that big of a sucker to you?"
Seungkwan lips tightened and he turned to his side looking at the sheets that were a drab red. Was it hurtful to be seen in that light? The light he was desperately trying to shine Vernon in.
"Aren't you? I mean... you said you liked me." Seungkwan mumbled. He picked at a peak in the sheets. "You're the biggest sucker to exist."
Vernon was silent for a moment. Maybe a moment too long. Did he kill the vibe? Seungkwan lifted himself up. He needed a cigarette or a drink.
He turned his head and he jumped realizing Vernon had gotten up and was attempting to intercept his bed right in that very moment.
Vernon fell beside him, pulling him down with him with his arm. Seungkwan stared at his drunken face, his eyes closed, a big shitty grin on his face.
"This is better." Vernon sighed with relief, "Your bed is way more comfortable."
Vernon exaggerated a yawn and cuddled the boy closer, "I think we should just sleep like this."
"Sideways on the double bed and fully clothed?" Seungkwan chimed in, "Is this your idea of romance?
Vernon tightened up a bit in the face but quickly relaxed himself, earning a snicker from the boy. He asserted himself, "This is strictly business... mhm... no romance here."
"Right, I expect all your business exchanges are this intimate then?" Seungkwan said, his eyes travelled down to their bodies pressed together.
"Well, it depends on the customer," Vernon smiled, peaking through his lashes, jokingly assessing him. "Does this customer feel satisfied by this method?"
"Oh my. Well... it's a bit tight I have to admit," Seungkwan played into his role, wiggling a bit against Vernon's arm wrapped around him.
"Oh I can-" Vernon lifted his arm to release him but Seungkwan caught it before placing it to his waist.
"That will do," Seungkwan said, bringing his hands into his chest, pretending to lay comfortably with his eyes closed.
Vernon felt his heart begin to pound. Seungkwan's playfulness and charm were unmatched. If he wasn't playing the customer role at first, he was definitely playing it now.
Shit, this is not what I expected. Seungkwan thought to himself as he lay close to the man who claimed to like him so very much. None of this was what I expected... it's like when I tried to end things they just got way more complicated.
Wait no. This is not complicated. We are at a hotel like our first meeting and he still has no way of contacting me. I can still do it. End it...
Seungkwan glanced at the man who was closing his eyes peacefully. Beautiful long eyelashes, perfectly shaped eyebrows, handsome nose. God. He was hand-sculpted by God.
"Fuck... I don't feel like a sucker." Vernon snickered, he blinked his eyes open and Seungkwan felt his heart thump in his chest. Vernon's eyes were so light and warm.
Vernon wedged his other hand from his side and took Seungkwan's in his. His hands were warm like his eyes. He smiled at him and Seungkwan felt this crumbling feeling in his stomach. "I feel like a winner."
Seungkwan opened his mouth and then closed it. He allowed himself to smile and take it. The warmth Vernon gave him. If it was this one time, it would be okay. Right?
Vernon's hand slid off Seungkwan's waist and his thumb brushed his cheek. Seungkwan nudged into the touch.
"Tomorrow... go out with me," Vernon whispered like it was a secret between the two of them. "I'll take you somewhere nice."
Seungkwan's eyes went wide for a second and then they wandered away. He became small for a moment and then he spoke as though it never showed on his face, "somewhere nice... is there a place like that which exists for the both of us?"
Vernon furrowed his brows slightly, trying to detangle the sudden question. A place for the both of us... to exist? "I... we can go anywhere."
Seungkwan chuckled like he knew something Vernon didn't. Like there was this secret that he was viscerally aware of. He was sure it was the exact reason why Seungkwan kept resisting.
"Yes. I said we can go anywhere. Me and you. We can exist anywhere together." Vernon said firmly. He kept his eyes steady on Seungkwan's face, watching it for any change as he spoke. He wanted to crack it. Whatever this secret was.
"Haha," Seungkwan snickered and he finally looked at Vernon. His eyes squinted with a smile and he asked. "How would you have me?"
"W-what?" Vernon said, his cheeks warmed. Perhaps not understanding the context of that question.
"How should I present myself for you, Vernon?" Seungkwan said and the pieces began to fall into place.
A test. His first one. Seungkwan was giving him a chance with this question and it felt very much like it could be his last if he answered it incorrectly.
He took a deep breath and then out came his answer.
"Pretty!" Vernon burst, he took both of Seungkwan's hands in his. His eyes filled with determination, "however you feel prettiest I want you to show it to me!"
"Don't hold back!"
Vernon stared at Seungkwan waiting for his assessment. Did he pass? Was it acceptable?
