Navigating through the building with Oner nestled securely in his arms, Gumayusi became acutely aware of the eyes on him. Hushed whispers flitted about, some filled with surprise, others with a hint of jealousy, and yet others with veiled judgment. Gumayusi wasn't one to care much about what others thought, but he couldn't help the protective surge he felt, the desire to shield Oner from the gossip and speculation.

As they stepped into the elevator, Gumayusi adjusted his hold on Oner, ensuring the younger man was comfortable. The rhythmic rise and fall of Oner's chest against his own was soothing, yet it intensified the swarm of emotions and thoughts within him.

Once they were inside the car, the intimate confines only amplified Gumayusi's awareness of Oner's closeness. The dim light from the streetlamps cast a gentle glow on Oner's face, highlighting his delicate features. With a soft sigh, Gumayusi began to absentmindedly stroke Oner's hair, fingers brushing against his forehead and tucking stray strands behind his ear.

He thought back to the past few weeks - the playfulness, the teasing, the genuine moments of connection. Gumayusi recalled the warmth he felt whenever Oner was around, the way his heart raced a tad bit faster. And now, the depth of his worry for Oner's well-being and the fierce protectiveness he felt were revelations he couldn't ignore.

Gumayusi's feelings had transformed, metamorphosing into something profound and tender. He realized he cherished Oner's presence in his life in more ways than one. However, with this realization came a responsibility - he had to tread carefully, ensuring that he respected and cared for Oner in the right way.

As the car glided through the city streets, the weight of his emotions pressed down on Gumayusi, yet he found solace in the gentle rhythm of Oner's breathing beside him. For now, his primary concern was ensuring Oner's well-being, but he knew that soon, he would have to confront and address the feelings that bubbled just beneath the surface.
