"So, Belle met this one guy that happened to be her professor when she was a freshmen at Uni." Eddy explained slowly as Brett prepared his bath. They didn't have the luxury of bathtub, so Brett have to prepare a stool and bucket of lukewarm water for Eddy to bath. The air feels stuffy between them, their bathroom was cramped enough without two grown men in it, still, Brett stayed to watch dutifully, in case Eddy needs help.

To tell the truth, Eddy's butt wasn't that sore anymore, he just liked the idea of Brett pampering him. 

"And i kinda forgot to tell you, but around last year, she started dating him." Eddy furrowed his brows, trying to recall his memory, "not so sure when actually, they've been smitten with each other since forever. Paul would followed Belle obediently,  like a puppy to it's master." Eddy smile dreamily revealing his crooked teeth. 

Brett hums in affirmation. "i thought you hate this guy"

"with all my heart" Scoffed Eddy "but he was so good to Belle, being polite and all, my mum was sold since the first time Paul had dinner with us. Plus he was the one who recommend Belle to study overseas. To top it all, Belle was obviously so in love with him." Eddy sighed heavily as he poured the water down on his skin. His sore muscles relaxed almost immediately, Eddy close his eyes in content.

Brett merely watched in silence with his infamous deadpan stare plastered on his face. The only giveaway was a faint pink that adorned his cheeks since Eddy started to wash himself.

For a 20 years old man, he was absurdly meticulous when it comes to bathing...not Brett was complaining.

"and she used to tell me that she won't marry him just because he's her soulmate." Eddy let out another sigh "then again, maybe they're not marrying each other just for the fact that they're soulmates... i mean,  Paul's a good guy. I think." Eddy's voice trailed off as he scrubbed down his legs and ankles. And toes. Who the hell does that?? 

Brett couldn't hide his astonishment when Eddy stucked one finger up in his ass. His startled yelp and flustered face exposed him like a deer caught in a headlight. However,  he couldn't help but watch as the sticky white fluid dripped from Eddy's hole to his thigh. Eddy rinse out the remnant of their encounter from the night before in a one swift motion. 

Eddy put on a sly smirk. "what?  just make sure i don't get any weird infection bro, i could feel your semen inside of me, kinda icky" Eddy cackled in amusement as he watch Brett loses his calm at the remarks.

"speaking of which,  have you cleaned yours thoroughly?"

until that very moment,  Brett never knew that his skin has the ability to reddened in such vivid crimson. "Eddy!"

The younger chuckled in mirth "But seriously, having anal sex can cause small skin tears and bleeding, which increase the risk of infection and microbe transfer. It means that i was more at risk due to being bottom, but shoving your dick inside someone's bowel was not the most hygienic either"

Brett put on his hood and burries himself deeper under his hoodie. Eddy seems much, much calmer than him, it almost creepy. 

"You sure knowledgeable for a virgin" Brett tries to retort.

"hm? bold of you to asume my virginity"

"....you're not?"

".... i'm just messing with you, you took my v-card last night. Ehey!" Eddy raised his fists up on the air cheerfuly,completely ignoring Brett's dismay. Cheeky bastard.

"it's never hurt to research you know" Eddy winked playfuly at Brett. 

"so that's what you do in your free time. What happened to practice forty hours a day? " Brett sighed in defeat.

"nah, i'm fine, practice is overrated. JOKES"

"..tell that to your professor, in case you forget, exams are in two weeks"

"nah.. Emerson loves me" Brett rolled his eyes but couldn't hide his small smile at Eddy's childish behaviour. Cute.

But cutessy won't get him anywhere with Brett. He's been friend with Eddy for years he's practically immune to his cunning ways now. 

"uh-uh hurry finish your shower and go practice! hwa ta!" Brett pass him towel and clothes before leaving Eddy to dry himself alone. Echoes of Eddy's boisterous laughter could be heard from where Brett fled.

After that, the two boys fell back to their usual weekend schedule, which is practice the day off, and drove back home at 5 pm, this time they share a ride together as to prepare for Belle's engagement tomorrow. 

They arrived at Eddy's place an hour later, Eddy's mum welcomed the boys with a long list of errands to do. 

"we haven't even step a foot inside mum, you already send us away with a shopping list. How cruel" Eddy pouted as he made his way back to the car. 

"Aya!  it's for Belle's sake la!  always so sudden that sister of yours. Be a good boy and buy me those things so i can clean up the house in peace. Look at Brett!  so kind, doesn't even complain" Said Eddy's mum as he shooed away the boys out.

Eddy snorted in disbelief  "i swear sometimes my mum forgot that you're not her child" Said Eddy as he fasten the seatbelt again.

A few minutes later,  they arrived on the grocery store, ready with a shopping list in hand. They quickly gather the items from the list.

"uh,  i don't think we can find the rest here,  we should go to the chinatown to get these stuffs" Brett inspect the list carefully. He's sure as hell won't find some dragon and phoenix candle lying around in some random grocery store here in Australia.

So they made their way to the chinatown. The sky was already dark when they arrives, stalls punctuated by lanterns stretched in each directions of the street, making the crowded place glow in red and yellow. It was especially packed today, for it was Saturday evening.

Brett inhales deeply, the sight of chinatown never ceases to spark some nostalgia in his chest, and yearning in his belly. Smell of tasty dumplings invaded his senses. 

Eddy seems to notice this, "let's grab a bite, we still have some time" Eddy captured the older man's hand inside his own, guiding him through the crowd.

Brett could only stares at his bestfriend's back, feeling the heat from their contacts creeped up to his cheeks. Brett enjoys the silent walk they shares

Before a loud call interrupts them.

"Eddy! Oh my God is that Brett you're holding??  are you guys on a date?? Oh My God! " The third person sequeal in a not so manly manner.

Eddy blushed and let go of Brett's hand that instance.  Brett deadpans at the said person before politely  greets the elder man before him.

"Long time no see Ray! fancy meeting you here" Says Brett with a fake, overly sweet smile plastered on his face.
