Just One More Night

Chapter Twenty-Five

"Meeew". Gulf was falling asleep on Mew's bed from boredom. Mew had promised to finish his paper as quickly as possible but he hadn't left his desk in an hour. "Babe, I'm sorry. I promise, I'm almost done".

Gulf started huffing and puffing, just like a little child. This made Mew smile. "A few more minutes".

Gulf tiredly got out of bed, stopping behind him, hands on his shoulders. "You already told me the same thing half an hour ago. If you're so busy, we can see each other tomorrow...".

Mew turned his head to look at him, caressing the back of his hand. "No. I want you to sleep here". He looked at the screen again, typing other words to his never-ending essay. "I didn't think you meant it literally".

Mew laughed and Gulf took advantage of this distraction to sit on his lap, his hands around his neck. "Mm, what are you doing, tua aeng?".

Mew was still trying to look at his laptop but Gulf had other plans. "Just a little, tiny, break".

He started kissing his neck and Mew bit his lip, trying to control himself. "Wouldn't it be easier to let me finish first?".

His whole body started loosening up because of Gulf's devious touches on his chest and the back of his neck. Gulf stopped, staring at his boyfriend's face. "Also, you know how much seeing you with those glasses turn me on".

Mew laughed, pulling him closer. "So now it's my fault?".

He slowly caressed his hips and Gulf automatically arched his back at the touch. "Yes. So you should take responsibility, you know?".

Gulf's voice became a whisper and Mew moved his hands under his boyfriend's shirt, removing it completely. He stared at his bare chest for a moment and then brought his lips on his nipples. Gulf tensed up all of a sudden, clinging on the chair's arms. "This is for playing dirty". Mew made his way to his lips, tentatively brushing his own against his. Gulf's breath became heavier, undressing Mew too. When he started moving his hips on him, Mew held him closer, moaning against his neck. "You still want to go back to study?". Mew pulled Gulf's face closer, "Oh, shut up".

When their lips crashed against each other, Mew easily picked him up, only to make him lie down on his bed. "Wait, there's something I wanna do".

Gulf made him rest his chest on the mattress, sitting on top of him. He started moving his hands in small circles, his back visibly reacting to his touch. "You seemed so stressed, I figured I could help releasing some...tension".

Mew bit his lips, tortured. Gulf bent his back, leaving wet kisses on his skin while his hands kept on massaging him. Mew was about to lose his mind, so he made him slide beside him, pulling him closer. "Seriously, where have you been all my life?".

Gulf knew Mew was probably joking – right? – still his words made him shiver. "Probably waiting for the right time to show up".

They were about to kiss again, when Mew's phone started ringing. Mew looked at Gulf, still hugging him with a hand while grabbing his phone. "Hold that thought".

Gulf smiled, watching him answer the phone. He rested his head on his chest, while Mew stroke his hair with his free hand, smiling him the whole time. "So what do you want to tell me? I'm kind of in the middle of something".

Gulf could hear Tong's laughter even from there. "Stop bragging about your incredible boyfriend and hear me out".

When the phone call ended, Mew had a strange look on his face. Gulf could not tell if he was happy, shocked or all of them combined. "So?".

Gulf rested his arms on his chest, waiting for him to answer."We...someone contacted our band. Apparently they want us to open for them during their tour".

Gulf smiled widely. "Oh my God, you must be on cloud nine! Why are we not celebrating? Isn't that what you wanted?".

Mew held his hands, conflicted. "Yeah, of course I'm happy. It's just...". Mew could not avoid Gulf's gaze anymore and they just stared at each other like that for a few seconds. "Well, I'll be gone for a whole month. So I haven't said yes yet, because...".

Gulf interrupted him, grabbing his arms to catch his attention. "Are you kidding me? I'm not going to stand in the way of your dream. Of course you should go".

Mew stared at his boyfriend, with more intensity than usual. He cupped his face on his hands, smiling like a happy baby. "God, I...".

He stopped, taken aback by his own words. Gulf was not sure he got it right and did not want Mew to feel pressered to continue. "I know, I'm amazing".

Mew laughed, caressing the curve of his butt. "That you are".

Gulf's smile quickly change into a grin. "I believe I was about to be rewarded?".

Mew chuckled, pushing him on the mattress again. "Oh yeah".
