His Match

Chapter 10 - Friends Wich Benefits?

After we arrived at Han-Seo's house I accompanied him inside, where we washed the blood off. Even though he heroically shielded me from the carnage, my face wasn't spared, because I just had to take a peek.  A verly long peek.
Since Han-Seo also had to change, I thought, I'd make us some tea in the meantime. I read somewhere that tea was supposed to make you feel calm and comfortable, so I thought, Why the h*ll not?"
I placed the tea cups on the coffee table, before sitting down next to him on the couch.
"Feeling better?", I asked.
"Yeah, I'm okay now. It just always takes some time, you know."
"Always? How many times did you have to see something like that?", I asked.
"Too many", he quietly said, then looked at me, scanning my outfit.
"You look nice today", he said, changing the topic, so I didn't want to push any further.
"Oh thank you", I said with a smile. "You like the blouse? It's knew."

"Yeah, it looks really good. I mean you always look good, but today you look really good", he started rambling.
"You think I look good?"
"Yes."
Then the idea struck me on how to take Han-Seo's and my mind off for a little while. "Do you think I'm pretty?", I asked, moving closer to him.
"Yes", he said, seemingly getting a little nervous.
"Han-Seo? You wanna know something?"
"Yeah, what?"
"I think you're cute." And that wasn't a lie.
"Really?", he asked with a smile.

"Really", I said, moving even closer. "Do you wanna kiss me?"
Han-Seo nodded his head, so I kept moving forward til our lips met. The kiss started off slow and sweet but soon got more heated. He started leaning forward, pressing me into the cushions, then he put a hand on my upper leg, placing it across his lap. Okay, this is getting hot. Where is this coming from?
All of a sudden he put his arm around me and lifted me onto him, making me squeal in surprise.
"Better. I like it when you're on top of me", he said in a husky voice. Oh wow.
"Do you now?"
"Oh yes."
"Then show me just how much you like it."
"Don't mind if I do." He started kissing me again, more passionately this time. His hands were all over my body: on my butt, wandering up and down my back, feeling up my thighs. As he began to kiss my neck, I burried my hand in his luscious hair, to make sure he didn't stop any time soon. It felt so good, I wanted more. No. I needed more. The flirting, the teasing and the tension with Han-Seok and Vincenzo were finally catching up to me. That's why I needed an outlet and Han-Seo seemed more than willing to be it.
His lips wandered along my neck, up to my jaw -
Suddenly Han-Seo's phone began to ring, making us stop in our tracks. He was about to take the call, but I turned his face back to me. "Ignore it", I breathed and wanted to pick up where we left off. Eventually the ringing stopped, only to start again. We both looked at his phone and I let out a frustrated sigh. Han-Seo answered at last, while throwing me an apologetic look.
"Yes."
I watched him intently, trying to figure out who was on the other end of the line. While listening, his face turned into a confused expression.
"Ok, let's meet." After I heard that, I climbed off his lap. The evening appeared to officially be over.
"Yes, it so happens that she's still with me." I looked at Han-Seo with a frown. "Ok, I'll bring her. We're on our way."
"Who was that?", I asked as soon as he hung up.
"Mr. Han. He wants to talk to us both. But he didn't say what about. At least not over the phone."
"Ok, let's go then."
So instead of having hot passionate s*x we were on our way to meet Mr. Han. Great.

We arrived at a restaurant a short while later and I could barely wait to find out what Mr. Han wanted.
„Mr. Jang, Miss Kim. Thank you for coming. Please, take a seat", he welcomed us.
After we sat down, I got straight to the point. „So, Mr. Han, what did you want to talk about?"
End of the story was, that Mr. Han suggested, we f*ck Han-Seok over and Han-Seo should take Babel for himself. Of couse, the loyal little brother that Han-Seo was, he wouldn't hear any of it. Neither did I.
When he saw that none of us would team up with him he changed strategies, giving the most passionate speech I've ever heard. After he threw some flattery in Han-Seo's direction, he ate it all up with a wide smile, and comforted Mr. Han, who just bursted into tears, howling like a dog.
I didn't know what to make of this. Obviously I wasn't gonna tell Han-Seok or Mrs. Choi about this, because then Han-Seo would have been in trouble. But I would keep an eye on this and step in if necessary.
