In the dim light of the bedroom, as Gumayusi began to change Oner's clothes, he was confronted with the reality of Oner's physique. He hadn't truly noticed before, but beneath the formal wear, Oner had a surprisingly toned body. The subtle definition of his abs and the trim curve of his waist was enticing, pulling Gumayusi's attention and making his fingers itch to touch.

"*Control yourself, you idiot,*" he thought, but his fingers betrayed him, lightly tracing the lines of Oner's stomach. The soft, warm skin under his fingertips made his heartbeat race. The intimacy of the moment made his mind race with forbidden thoughts.

Dressing Oner in his own pyjamas, the oversized fit on Oner's smaller frame made him look even more vulnerable, somehow enhancing his appeal. The sight stirred something deep within Gumayusi, an emotion he wasn't quite ready to confront.

"*Why is he affecting me like this?*" Gumayusi mentally berated himself, even as he carefully tucked Oner into bed, administering the medicine he'd need for the night. But as he moved to leave the room, Gumayusi became acutely aware of his own body's reaction. Glancing down, his face reddened with a mixture of embarrassment and frustration.

"Damn it," he muttered under his breath. "This isn't the time."

Deciding he needed a moment to gather himself, Gumayusi headed to the bathroom. Turning the shower knob to cold, he stepped under the chilling stream, hoping the water would clear both his body and mind.
