10.

Hao froze at the words, his mind racing as his heart stumbled over itself. He turned his head to the side, trying to hide the flush that spread across his cheeks, his hands slipping away from Hanbin's body. The compliment hit deeper than it should have, the unusual familiarity and kindness leaving him at a loss for words.

"Wait, Hao, I'm sorry...did I say something wrong?" Hanbin's voice wavered with concern, his eyes wide as he searched Hao's face, panic beginning to seep into his expression.

"N-no, that's not it," Hao stammered, still avoiding Hanbin's gaze, his voice shaky. His heart raced, the vulnerability of the moment almost too much to bear. But he didn't want to push Hanbin away. Not now. "I like it," he admitted softly, the words filled with emotion, running his hands back up the warmth of the latter's chest though he couldn't bring himself to meet his eyes again, "...a lot".

A beat of silence passed, and then it was Hanbin's turn to blush. His ears burned bright red as his lips parted in surprise, forming a small 'o' as he took in Hao's words. A soft groan rumbled in Hanbin's throat, his body reacting to Hao's touch with a mixture of need and restraint. He shifted, leaning back down and pressing closer until their bodies were nearly flush, the heat between them palpable.

Hanbin leaned down to press his lips on Hao's collarbone, breaking away for a brief second, just enough to murmur against his skin, "You're driving me crazy, gege."

Hao's breath caught at the sound of the pet name in Hanbin's voice, low and rough with desire, simultaneously with his lips previously on his bare skin. His cheeks flushed deeper, but this time, it wasn't from embarrassment. There was something powerful about knowing he could make Hanbin unravel like this.

Hao's breath hitched as his fingers traced the strong muscles of Hanbin's back, feeling the tension in his body. His hands travelled upward, finally resting on the back of Hanbin's neck. Without thinking, Hao pulled him back into a kiss, this time more desperate and filled with an unspoken urgency. It was unlike the hesitant, exploratory pecks they had shared before—this one was raw, overflowing with emotions he didn't know how to voice.

Hanbin paused for a moment, his forehead resting against Hao's as he stared into his eyes, filled with adoration. The look sent a warmth flooding through Hao's chest, and just as quickly, Hanbin leaned down again, his lips brushing a trail of kisses down Hao's jawline.

Hao tilted his head back, letting out a soft moan as Hanbin's lips found the sensitive skin of his neck. The heat of Hanbin's breath on his skin made his body shudder, and when Hanbin began to suck gently at the spot where his neck met his collarbone, Hao felt his pulse quicken. The sensation sent jolts of pleasure through him, each kiss more intoxicating than the last.

Hanbin was deliberate, taking his time, his touches measured and careful. Hao could tell Hanbin was going slow for him, mindful of every reaction. It made Hao smile through the haze of desire—a small, fond smile as he looked down at the dark tousled hair that brushed against his collarbone. This consideration, this walking green flag, made the moment feel all the more significant. Hanbin wasn't rushing him. He was waiting for him to be ready, and it made Hao's heart swell with affection.

But then, just as he was lost in the sweetness of the moment, Hao gasped, his body jolting in surprise as Hanbin's cold fingers slid up his side, sending shivers across his skin. Hanbin grinned against his skin, clearly enjoying Hao's reactions, but his touches remained slow and steady, waiting for any sign from Hao to stop or continue. Every movement seemed to say, I'm here. We'll go at your pace.

However, the sudden flick of Hanbin's fingers over his nipple made Hao arch up slightly, a soft whimper escaping his lips at the unexpected jolt of sensation as he unintentionally pressed into Hanbin. "Ahh s-shit I'm so sorry" Hao gasped, embarrassed.

Hanbin groaned at the sudden contact, briefly losing his composure before momentarily switching back. "It's alright," Hanbin replied, but Hao could still feel a sense of unease in him.

Hanbin continued to fondle with his nipple, rubbing the nub in circles while leaning down to kitten lick the other that was clearly lacking attention but already hard and ready. The sudden twist of Hanbin's fingers as he pinched Hao's nipple drew a yelp from him, and he involuntarily curled his legs around the latter's back, crossing his ankles in a yearn for more.

"Hanbin-ah, please," Hao moaned, rolling his hips up in desire.

"What do you want, princess," Hanbin whispered back, grinding down into Hao shamelessly—unlike his previous hesitance—earning him another dragged out whimper from the latter.

He gazed bravely into Hanbin's dark eyes, sensing a flame igniting behind the facade.

"I want—" Hao started, flushing at the pet name, "you".
