Torment and Torture

XIV

"Ow! Ah!"

Every kick shook Yoonbum's whole body. He lay on the floor and took the kicks. Sangwoo needed the relief. And Yoonbum knew that.

"Haha...haha!!"

Sangwoo kept laughing and kicking. Yoonbum eventually knew that he had to stop. That he needed someone to tell him no.

"Sangwoo!"

Sangwoo was immediately stricken and taken aback by Yoonbum suddenly calling out his name. He fell onto the floor and stopped laughing. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead as he brushed his hair out of his eyes.

"S-Sangwoo...it's okay-"

"No it's not! I just nearly beat the shit out of you, and your telling me that's okay?!"

"I-"

"No! It's not okay for me to do this to you! But I can't stop doing it!!"

"Sangwoo..."

"Hurting you is like a drug to me! A drug with which I am irrevocably addicted to!!"

Sangwoo yells echoed throughout the house.

"Sangwoo...it's okay. I will always be here. Let me be your drug. Let me make you feel better when you need me to. Please."

Sangwoo felt Yoonbum place a hand on his right cheek. He immediately took it as an invitation to touch him back and launched himself towards Yoonbum's lips.

"Mmmf!"

Yoonbum was startled, but allowed Sangwoo's tongue to slip in and out of his mouth.

"I...I love you....Yoonbum...." Sangwoo said while kissing, it was just about understandable.

Yoonbum allowed Sangwoo to continue kissing him while he thought about his bruised body.

Would he always be beaten like this? Or would he one day eventually get beaten too hard?
