Are You Addicted? (Volume 3). The Post-Honeymoon Phase.(18+)

Episode 44

He got up and headed toward the apartment door. Intending to take the elevator down to the gym in the first floor of the building.

"Where are you going?" Bai Luo Yin asked.

"To work out."

"You already worked out today."

"Right." He exposed a salacious smile. "But I have to release this energy somehow. And I cannot do it by making you stand on all fours. Now, can I?"

Bai Luo Yin shook his head, and pressed his lips together, resisting a humorous grin. Damn you and your obsession with shameful positions.

"Just go. Go." He tipped his head toward the door, and stared at Gu Hai walking out. Suddenly he jumped up from his chair and chased him to the elevator. "Wait for me. I haven't worked out in so long. I am coming with you."

"Should I remined you what the doctor said? You are staying here."

"Fine." He gave up without a fight, yet tailed Gu Hai to the gym. "I will just watch you work out then."

"I don't think this is such a good idea."

"Why not?"

Gu Hai scrutinized him. Head to toe, behind the gym's glass door. His teasing lips widened up. And Bai Luo Yin blinked, already regretting asking the question. "Can you handle watching me work out shirtless without getting hard?"

Heat burned every one of his pores and strong hues of red glimmered on his innocent face. "Fuck you."

"You wish." Gu Hai laughed. His powerful hand gripping the gym's door handle, keeping it close. The other slithered to his back, starting to strip him off his gray T-shirt.

He pulled the door handle outward, extracting every bit of his strength. But with no avail. The door mocked him and didn't move, not even an inch. Doesn't matter how many medals he will receive from the military, or how many fancy titles the base will award him with. When it came to him fighting off Gu Hai, he will forever be powerless.

He never had a chance of winning, unless Gu Hai chose to surrender. Yet it never stopped him from trying and fight him off every time he felt the need to. When it came to Gu Hai, his heart pranced whether he won or lost, so what's the harm in trying?

"Move! And keep your shirt on." His furious fist pounded on the door.

"In this type of weather? Not happening. The shirt is coming off and you are going home."

"Move! Damn it!" he demanded, but seeing his anger getting him nowhere, he quickly switched his tone. "Let me in." He ceased the shoving and pounding, and dropped his gaze to the floor. "I will just jerk off later, okay?" he whispered.

"Not more than once, mmm?"

"Fine, not more than once." He gave Gu Hai a sour boyish face. Damn it! so humiliating.

Gu Hai released his hold of the door handle and let him in. For three hours straight, he pinned his pelvis to one of the fitness benches, while his eyes followed Gu Hai around the gym. Doing push-ups, pull-ups, bicep curls and more.

He threw him a towel or a bottle of water every now and then. At some point he thought about keeping the towel to himself. He bit his lips and wiped his collarbones, not sure who is sweating more. Him or Gu Hai.

Later on, he leaned his head against the shower stall wall. Closed his eyes, basking in the hot water splattering at him, and reached for little Yin. He slid his hand up and down and let out a low moan.

"Let me." Someone whispered in his ear. "With that look on your face I don't trust you to do it only once."

A large palm took over little Yin, and another grabbed him by his nape. A lusty tongue wetted his Adams' apple, and he gasped.

The next morning.

"Do you want some help?" he peeped at Gu Hai squatting, sorting clothes in the laundry room.

"Sure."

He hopped on the washing machine and began separating colored and whites. His long legs dangling at the sides of the washing machine until they eventually landed on Gu Hai's broad shoulders.

"Baby." Gu Hai's fingers poked at his feet, tickling him through his tawny socks, and he let out an infectious giggle.

"Mmmm? Hehehe"

"I had an idea. How about we will go on a trip together? Between all the crazy things that happened during the last few months. We never really took any time off to enjoy ourselves. What do you say?"

"Where do you want us to travel to?"

"The other day Gu Yang called me, and invited us to join him and Ling Yun on their trip to South Korea. They are leaving on Sunday for a month, and are taking their jet with them. I didn't think it was a good timing then, so I told him no. But now...how about we will take him up on his offer?"

He sniffed one of Gu Hai's T-shirts, and within seconds changed into it. "This one smells good, it doesn't need washing." He murmured in passing.

"Isn't it too spontaneous?" he asked, returning to the subject. "We have less than a week to pack, and my final examination is in three weeks. If the doctor will clear me, and say I am good to go, I will have to go back to the base the next day."

"If we are jumping on their trip, it will save us planning time. we don't need more than a couple of days to pack. We can always buy there what is missing, and we don't have to stay the whole month. We can come back early, in time for your doctor's appointment. What do you say?"

"Ammm okay. Then, you should call Gu Yang and let him know. And I will call Yang Meng."

"Yang Meng?" Gu Hai grimaced. "Why?"
