[ It's not like Yunyeol hasn't touched him before. Even just beyond places where his skin is usually visible. There have been plenty of times where Jeongmin's illness just wrecked him so much for a day that even changing his clothes by himself felt impossible and Yunyeol helped him - or times where Yunyeol had to help bathe him, even. But this still feels different from any of that. Not that Jeongmin's heart didn't oddly beat even during those times, since that close physical contact with Yunyeol is what he slowly grew to desire, but this is still.. different.
Maybe it's the situation, the two of them being so intimate right now on purpose. It feels a little less like he's making Yunyeol babysit him and more like they could almost be equals if he didn't know better. Like they could just be two normal people in love. And there's nothing he wants more than that, especially with someone as soft and sweet as Yunyeol, someone who makes it so easy to believe that he might just naturally care about Jeongmin. (Even though wandering too far in that direction with his thoughts still feels terrifying.)
And exactly because all of this feels so different, it feels nice when he feels Yunyeol's hand start to move up his clothes while the other is still kissing him. This is exactly what he wants - feeling like he's being enveloped by Yunyeol. Drowning in the other's warmth, and forgetting what he usually feels like most of the time. The feeling makes him wiggle a little under the other, but it's not because he wants the other to stop. It's because it feels so nice that he just can't help himself, even in little ways like this.
His grip on the other tightens just a little bit, and as he realises Yunyeol might interpret the signals he's giving in a wrong way, he makes sure to at least address it out loud. ]
Touch me more.. please..
[ It definitely feels a little embarrassing to be this needy even though they've only just started, but it's not like Jeongmin hadn't imagined this sort of scenario plenty of times in his mind already. It makes him crave more of this quickly - wanting Yunyeol's hands to roam all over him, to make every spot of his body feel better than it ever has before. There's no way he can mutter those words while actually looking at the other though, so in that sense he's definitely glad Yunyeol is too preoccupied with planting kisses against his neck so there's no way to have eye contact. ]
[As much as Yunyeol can be overly careful with just about everything he does, he's still plenty aware of how people react to being touched like this. So at the very least, he's less likely to stop and check if Jeongmin's alright unless something really seems off. And nothing's raising any alarm in him right now, so he seems calm with carrying on.
At least, aside from when Jeongmin talks again. As soon as those words are out, it feels like something's squeezing tightly around his heart. It's hard to imagine how he's going to make it through this in one piece if the person he belongs to keeps asking him "please" like that. It just makes Yunyeol want to give everything to him- more and more desperately.
And so...Yunyel lets a warm puff of breath against Jeongmin's neck before he starts to pull back. It's only for a moment- long enough to grab onto the bottom of the other's shirt and gently tug it the rest of the way off, then let it fall to the side of the bed. And as he was asked, Yunyeol moves back down- letting his hands travel all along Jeongmin's chest, his sides, his stomach...All the while he leans over to press kisses against him again- this time moving down to his collarbone, then over towards his shoulder.
This is different for Yunyeol too. Not even just different from the way he's touched Jeongmin before...there's an obvious difference this time. Even though, when he'd been helping his owner with being bathed or getting dressed, he always held him with a similar tenderness, it's just not the same as how intimate this is right now. That alone is special...But what's really different, is just...how all of this is starting out at all. Maybe they haven't gotten very far yet, but it's already such a major change from the experiences he's had with sex in his life up until now.
The life they'd prepared him for wasn't supposed to be anything like this. The sex he'd had before was always much harder- whether it was giving or receiving. Mostly because they needed to prepare him for a lifestyle like that- prepare him for the worst, mainly. Nothing like this...nothing so soft, and sweet and loving. Nothing where anything even made him feel...even remotely needed.]
[ Jeongmin finds himself holding his breath as Yunyeol takes off his shirt. It's not as if the other has never seen him naked before - he knows Yunyeol has seen that up close enough times, all those times when he was too weak to even dress himself or take a proper bath. But despite the fact that there's really nothing new here about his body, he still can't help but feel a little nervous.
After all, his body is... well, it's not that great, is it? His skin is so pale from how much time he has to spend inside due to his illness that it makes him feel like a ghost sometimes when he looks into the mirror. He's pretty skinny and frail-looking, and being left without his clothes always makes him feel incredibly vulnerable. It's not that he doesn't trust Yunyeol - otherwise they wouldn't be in this position to begin with, he knows Yunyeol is incredibly loyal and gentle - but still letting Yunyeol see this, see his pale skin marred by scars from surgeries they tried on him for his illness in the past... He feels a little bad letting the other see just how terrible he looks, no matter whether it's during a moment Yunyeol is helping him or a moment when they're doing... well, this.
His heart starts pounding more rapidly in his chest with the fear that the other might find him repulsive. It's not like Yunyeol could ever say it even if he thought it, right? He couldn't just say that to the person that owns him. So those thoughts could be there, and Jeongmin would never even know about it..
But the touch on his skin is thankfully very distracting. Yunyeol's hands feel so good and warm on his bare skin, and the kisses are so sweet and gentle that he doesn't ever want this to stop. His body usually makes him feel so terrible, and this is one of the first times that it has ever made him feel anything close to good.
His breaths are long, but start to turn more shakey the more the other kisses and touches him. ]
Yunyeol...
[ Tell me you love me. Tell me I'm not just some pathetic guy you have to take care of. Tell me---
All things that go around in his head, but that he could never say since it'd be an absolute order if he did voice them out loud, and forced answers would be even worse than Yunyeol voicing the sentiments Jeongmin sometimes fears the other holds. ]
[If only there was some way Yunyeol could know what was going through Jeongmin's head...if only there was a way he could know about those fears and then try to alleviate them. But then again...if Jeongmin were to voice any of those fears, and Yunyeol answered...would Jeongmin know it was an honest answer? And not just him saying what he's supposed to say...? It would be better if Yunyeol could realize the other's feelings on his own...but he's still not socially skilled enough to know that there's anything like that going through his head right now. And even then, Yunyeol's often too reserved to say much unless he knows for sure he's allowed to speak.
But the heart of the matter here is simply that Jeongmin doesn't have to be afraid at all of Yunyeol's thoughts. He doesn't particularly have any strong sense of what's attractive to him or what's not to begin with...because he's never been allowed to have anything that he wants anyway. What he sees here is the body that belongs to the one person who's his entire world...the body that he does want to comfort...to hold, to protect, to make feel good. It's simply part of Jeongmin himself, and there isn't any part of him that Yunyeol doesn't care about fully.
Even if it doesn't occur to him that he could, or should say any of that...this is still the one opportunity where Yunyeol has a little more freedom in his actions. And so, even without necessarily realizing it, Yunyeol's still giving an answer, in a way.
The scars on Jeongmin's body don't go unnoticed, but Yunyeol doesn't shy away from them at all. He's not sure if his owner would want him to fixate on them at all or not, but it somehow feels wrong to just act like they're not there...He brushes his fingers over one of them in a way that's undeniably affectionate...and traces kisses along the scar afterwards.
Maybe it's pointless to think like this, since the scars themselves are obviously long healed by now, but...Yunyeol finds himself wishing he could've been there when Jeongmin had gotten them. It feels strange to go down along this train of thought too...but he really does wish he'd been here a lot sooner. By Jeongmin's side even when they were younger...always being there to help him through his pain. It feels like this is exactly where he's meant to be.]
I'm here, Jeongmin...
[He says it in a soft, sweet voice in a pause between kisses. It still feels strange to him to say Jeongmin's name...no matter the fact that the other had already given him permission to do so a while ago. Maybe it just seems a little bold, especially in a situation like this. But...Yunyeol knows he'd feel worse if he didn't say it in this case.]
[ The terrible feeling of dread in the pit of his stomach starts to eb away slightly when he feels Yunyeol's lips and fingers moving across his scars. It's not as if he's got direct confirmation that the other doesn't mind the scars, considering Yunyeol probably couldn't say anything about it anyway with the way he is.. but it really does feel like there's something loving in the touches, something softly affectionate. Jeongmin knows that they really did train Yunyeol well - to a ridiculous point where he really feels sorry for Yunyeol at times and wishes the other could at least speak up about what he feels a little more - but there's no way you can train someone to even ask their touch, right? Would affection be that easy to fake?
Maybe it's since he wants it to be true so badly, but he can't help but slip into the mindset that the other doesn't mind this. That Yunyeol isn't doing this against his own will because Jeongmin owns him and wants him to, but that he doesn't mind doing this with Jeongmin. That he wants Jeongmin to feel good.. that he wants him to be happy. He can't help but think of the times when the pain was almost too bad to bear and there was definitely worry in the other's eyes, in a way that felt too genuine to be faked.
Almost without thinking his hands move up to the other's head, his fingers digging into the other's hair - but there's nothing harsh about it. It isn't even due to lack of strength on Jeongmin's part, it's just that he really would never want to hurt the other. It's just a gentle touch, just his fingers brushing through the other's hair to have even more contact between them, to show Yunyeol that he does really like this. He likes not even just the physical part of this, but also the mental and emotional side.. the signs that Yunyeol really does care, especially when he's saying so sweetly that he's here with him.
It's almost overwhelming. His throat feels a little tight, and for a moment Jeongmin almost feels like he's going to cry like some sort of moron at all of Yunyeol's sweetness that's surrounding him, but he manages to at least hold that much back. Not that it does anything about the expression on his face seeming genuinely happy - and even a little hopeful. It's like he's at the edge of the cliff that is telling Yunyeol he loves him, but he doesn't dare to jump in just yet. But it's so close at Yunyeol's kisses, so close.. ]
You're so good at this.
[ His voice is soft too, but it's almost a little more mumbled, like he feels a bit embarrassed just saying it. Mostly since he left it at a surface level compliment, but there's more meaning behind it. It doesn't have anything to do with how well Yunyeol is trained or anything, it's nothing about the physical skills - it's about what he does to Jeongmin's heart without even realising it. ]
