"You really kept calling me Ahjussi, huh?" Yun Ki nudges a very pale looking Soojin, who's drifted off to the land of the past, she'd long forgotten.

Yun Ki snaps a finger before her eyes, watching her gain back sense of real time.

"T-That was you?" She asks.

Yun Ki nods, looking away smiling.

Soojin clamps a hand over her forehead, angrily.

"Aish, I was really mannerless. I embodied the spirit of a tomboy, who was willing to take on everyone, head on. Much like a Bull..I was really so harsh and crude with my words." She apologises, facing Yun Ki with a head bowed down in regret.

Yun Ki merely tuts at her.

"It's alright. I was a jerk, too..Besides, one must leave the past in the past, right?" He breathes out, placing a pointer finger over Soojin's chin, lifting it up, to have her eyes meet his in an intense gaze.

"We've had quite the rough patch, haven't we?" He asks, the pad of his index finger caressing her bony chin, feeling the hardness of the bone over his palpating digit.

Soojin nods.

"We were at the wrong place, at the wrong time." She comments.

Yun Ki looks around Soojin, watches her stand out amidst a parade of nature's most natural phenomena in the form of the bioluminescence conferred by the fireflies and yet, all he can see is her.

The way her cheeks glow golden under the meagre light.

The freckle under her nose.

The way her eyes are all doughy and round, bigger than his.

The way her soft lips would jut out every time she grew embarrassed.

He feels it, again.

The incessant need to touch her, hold her by the waist and kiss her like she's his.

He wants to back her against the wooden railing, he wishes to circle his arms around her waist and pull her body flush against his.

He wants to see the shy outburst she'd have, pressed against him.

He wants to kiss her on the mouth.

Not hard, softly.

He wants to keep at it, time and again.

Nip her cushiony petals between his.

He wants to feel her eyelids flutter close against her cheeks as her own arms wrap around his waist, fisting the material of his robe.

He wants to fill her belly with butterflies, have her swooning until she looses balance and is overwhelmed by just how carefully he can handle her.

Like, she's fragile and made of the finest glass.

He'd kiss around her face, over her round milky soft cheeks, the skin overlying her forehead, her eyelids, her sharp nose and finally taste her lips.

He wants to feel the expanse of her body over his lips.

He wants to watch her dig her nails into his scalp as her toes curl from just how pleasurable she feels.

He wants to make her feel secure.

He wants to cradle her like a baby, place her on his lap and engulf her frail figure in his manly embrace.

He wants to show her that to get to her, one would have to fight these arms.

And yet, here she is.

An arm's length away from him, warming up to him.

He'd driven her away in the past.

The past would never repeat itself, he thinks resolutely.

"Our timing, was always off.." Soojin mumbles, clearing the air of silence that had settled amidst them in the hush-hush of the night.

Yun Ki's eyes grow misty.

"Would you say it's off now, Soojin-ah?" He asks, biting down on his lips.

Soojin's gaze flickers as she watches him in wonder.

"M-Mwo?" She asks, looking like a Deer.

As Majestic, as Gentle and as Timid as one.

Yun Ki clears his throat.

"Are we at the right place and at the right time?" He questions, searching for an answer that sits on the tip of Soojin's tongue, yet refuses to roll out into the oblivion.

Soojin looks around her, caressing her biceps with her hands, as it'd grown chilly, admiring the view.

She's in Goryeo.

Yet, she feels like Yun Ki is the only thing her mind is set on.

Not just today but, everyday.

She finds herself thinking of him and his smile.

The gummy one, she'd only noticed until recently.

And she realised that it was the only time she'd seen him laugh, to his heart's content.

He was really like a child, she found herself deliberating, often.

But it was that very quality of his, that drew her to him.

The child-like wonder in him.

Coincidentally, they'd both lost out on their childhood.

They were forced to shoulder responsibilities at feeble stages of their life.

They'd lost out on their share of happiness, a stage of innocence.

But then she feels like she's sat on a horse, when she's with Yun Ki.

He makes her heart leap hurdles.

He forces her eyes to clench shut in excitement.

That's what life with Yun Ki was, to her.

It was a ride on Casper, past stretches of Meadows.

A ride where he'd have his arms secured around her waist, holding her tight.

And an adrenaline rush that'd course through her entire being as his groin brushed against her backside, every time they leaped on the saddle.

She never wanted to climb off of Casper's back.

So she looks at Yun Ki, whose eyes read desperation.

"Yes, we are at the right place at the right time, this time.." She mutters, watching him tense up.

He walks towards her, gentle strides but determined steps that have her back digging against the handrail, with every step she takes away from him.

Yun Ki towers over her.

He was big.

His shoulders were wide and they trailed down to a trim waist, giving him a streamlined body.

He places his hands on either side of the handrail, engulfing her figure whole.

Soojin was sure that incase anyone did walk in, they'd be met by Yun Ki's wide shoulders alone.

He'd completely hidden Soojin's frame.

Soojin's eyes are wide apart and for the very first time, she isn't clenching her fists like she normally would, at the heartened proximity.

His are covered in a shiny brown grim.

They're not dark with lust and the air around them has changed.

Soojin doesn't know whether it's from the vanilla candle he'd lit or the flame that had gained prominence in both of their chests, one that had warmed them up.

She's standing there, eyes trained on his.

It's all natural and feels very domesticated.

As though this is what Husbands and Wives do behind closed doors in the lull of the night.

They're like two flames, entangling in each other, despite how different they are.

"Soojin-ah.." He mutters, leaning into her, such that his lips are hovering over her forehead and she feels the vibrations course through her skull, down to her spine.

He inches closer, as though he's gauging a reaction.

Soojin feels his lips brush against the skin between her eyes, her glabella.

The epicentre of the human body.

The soft caress has goosebumps coursing her entirety.

She feels his every caress.

Her eyes flutter close in the beauty of intimacy.

The warmth that leaves his body makes her feel warmer than any blanket on a chilly day.

He runs his lips down the bridge of her nose, using a finger to guide her face upwards, neck flexing so he can reach her better.

The roughness of his chapped lips over her skin cause her legs to tingle and she wants more.

Oh lord, does she want more.

She's so deprived of a loving touch that she curls her arms around his waist, reducing the space between their fronts and Yun Ki stops in his advancements.

She's driving him crazy.

He can smell the Jasmine scent rolling off of her skin and he's getting intoxicated in her.

He feels the swell of her breasts fit against the ripples of his pecs and rub against them, satin on satin.

His core is on fire as his lips map out and try and memorise just how soft her skin feels under him.

He rubs his stubbled chin over her cheeks as his lips drop a chaste kiss over her ear and Soojin's melting in his hold, clutching and fisting the satin robe he has on.

"I want to kiss you.." He murmurs in her ear, like it's a chaste prayer he wants just her and only her to hear.

Soojin's quivering.

She wants to feel Yun Ki's manly hands around her. She wants to feel him on her naked skin.

She's so drawn in the moment.

"K-Kiss me.." She mewls, like a tamed cat, rubbing into Yun Ki's body.

Yun Ki's had it. The water has now crossed his head.

It's intolerable.

He has to have his lips on hers, now.

Desperately.

He shifts the deadlock he had over the Wooden railings, over to her waist as he runs his hands all over her back, fingers digging in the soft material of her nightgown.

Soojin is digging her head in his neck as he's squeezing and touching her back, lips hovering over Yun Ki's carotid.

His hands trail lower, cupping her ass amidst his giant hands, veins strained over his pale digits, flesh pouring out of the grasp he has over her plush buttocks as he grinds her core over his own.

He's embarrassingly hard and she feels it with a loud hiccup over his neck.

He grabs the back of her thighs and scoops her up, in a swift motion, seating her over the thin edged wooden handrail.

He guides her thighs to wrap around his waist, cores approximated intimately.

"Y-Yun K-Ki.." She whines, fearing the height.

Yun Ki retracts her face from the nook of his neck and cups a hand over her cheek, leaning in to pepper desperate kisses over her cheeks and the corners of her heated mouth.

"Trust me..You can trust me.." He exhales, loudly.

Chest beating over her own as he grabs her waist, securely, with an arm and angles her mouth to clash against his own.

His lips are nipping against her soft ones, he sucks into her lower lip, rhythmically.

Soojin's matching his heated pace as she's rutting against his groin and feeling her lower lip being tugged between his own thick lips.

He's a ferocious kisser.

He's sucking and latching onto her lips like they're his last meal.

She's never been kissed like this.

This was nothing like Areum's.

He disconnects their lips, with a lewd pop and Soojin's swollen lip recoils back, heavy and throbbing.

"M-Mine.." He murmurs against her lips, pecking her mouth open ajar.

"Only Mine.." He growls, running a hand to cup the back of her head as he slips in a tongue into Soojin's mouth and licks into her soft walls.

Oh, they're so soft and pebbly, he could come right then and there.

The way she'd stimulated the bundle of nerves that sat over the tip of his tongue, was ridiculous.

He slithers his tongue over her own, probing against it and Soojin traps her lips around his tongue, sucking it, fervently.

She's feverish and if they don't stop, she's sure she'd fall off the balcony.

But she wouldn't feel a thing, she's high on love.

"Y-Yun Ki.." She claws his ash grey hair, tugging them back as they break the kiss.

Soojin feels a hot wet patch grazing her core every time she ruts against Yun Ki's erection.

His lids are partially open, eyes reduced to narrowed slits as they break away to breathe, chests heaving miserably.

"W-Why didn't we do this, sooner?" He asks her as she's returning his glossy eyed, swollen lip appearance.

"I was hooked onto this mouth, since that day...since the day you chewed me out.." He moans against her.

She flexes her neck back, clinging onto his waist like a koala, trusting him completely as she leans back, hanging in mid-air with Yun Ki's grip around her waist.

"I-I trust you, Yun Ki..I trust you!" She screams into oblivion, only to be pulled back, with desperate lips finding her neck as they nibble and bite over her sensitive skin.

"Yo-You're so good to me.." She whines, fingers tightening around the back of his head as Yun Ki's tongue runs a wet stripe over her neck, nibbling at the clear milky skin, turning it red and purple as though she's his personal canvas.

Soojin's arousal is running past her white cotton underwear and it's making an embarrassing mess over her thighs that rub against Yun Ki's clothed waist.

The air is filled with Yun Ki's explorative sucks, the shluck-shluck of tongue on tongue and high pitched hushed whines escaping past Soojin's chewed out lips.

It's so lewd, the way their flesh makes squelches, but it's pleasurable to both Yun Ki and Soojin.

They're at the right place and at the right time.

For the very first time.
