No one told Chen Linong his dance teacher would be that hot, so no one can blame him when he spends more time thirsting over Ten Lee instead of working towards debut.
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Linong liked that Ten usually played along to his games. He liked to challenge himself, for no other reason than the fact that it was satisfying. As the bus pulled up to their stop, he let Ten get on first, making sure to copy his boyfriend's movements with the bus pass so that they wouldn't hold up the bus. Taking a seat in the back, Linong let Ten sit next to the window, himself still peering outside to get a look of the scenery. "Oh, the second one called Aqua Planet Jeju," he said, luckily able to catch onto the end of Ten's question from the Chinese part alone. They were both animal lovers, Linong learned, so he thought a trip to the aquarium would be a perfectly suitable activity for their date out.
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Linong was always quiet until it was time to beat someone else's score or time. Ten laughed, sticking an arm out to flag down the approaching bus. "Yes, Nong Nong. I think we can. But I don't think there's a prizer for finishing faster, so let's just enjoy our time in there. Okay?" Letting go of Linong to search in his bag for his temporary bus pass, Ten stepped on first, tapping the pass against the reader and heading for the two empty seats at the back of the bus. "Wait," he began in English, finishing in Chinese, "You said there were two places. Where is the second one?"
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Linong could tell that Ten was doing his best with introducing the attraction to him in Chinese, so he nodded along, accepting whatever information made sense to him. He enjoyed playing games, so he was sure that no matter what the maze had to offer, it would be an interesting experience. "Sounds fun," he said, seeing the bus stop coming up in the distance. Luckily, there was no sign of the bus yet so they didn't have to power walk first thing in the morning. "I think we can do it in a shorter time," he told Ten, his brows quirked in a small bid for the older to accept the challenge with him.
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Ten wasn't sure if either of them had the best sense of direction, but since Linong wanted to do it, of course they would. He copied the name of their destination onto the map in his phone, checking out all their available routes quickly. The fastest one had a bus coming in five minutes, so Ten slipped his arm around Linong's elbow again to guide him to the bus station. A cool breeze blew past them — perfect for cooling them down on the warm day. Digging in his bag, Ten jammed his sunglasses over his eyes before he started reading more about the maze. "Wow, the maze has been around since 1987," Ten reported. "There's some skywalks and observatories we can go to when we finish this maze, which is said to take up to 50 minutes for some."
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Breakfast went from a quick and simple bowl of porridge to two servings of porridge, the entire egg tart Ten had shoveled onto his plate, and half a piece of cheese toast. Linong had to save the banana for later because there was simply no more room in his stomach. With a full stomach and a happy boyfriend by his side, Linong walked Ten out of their hotel and into the bustling city streets. They were up on a slope, so when they looked down, they could see the shimmering ocean water in the far distance. "Hm, well I had two things I wanted to try out. There's..." Linong started, then paused and tried to see if there was an easier word for 'maze' in Chinese that Ten would be able to understand, "Like a puzzle park! We have to try and walk through it!" he said, pulling out his phone to show Ten the place he'd searched up in Chinese. "Ehm...Kimnyong...Maze Park?" he read uncertainly in Korean.
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ The moment Ten found something that Linong liked, he was acting like a grandmother, putting the rest of it onto Linong's plate. "Eat it," he encouraged the younger. "Eat it all. I can get more from the buffet line later." Ten helped, still, but they ate until they cleared everything off the plates and went back to the buffet line for seconds. Linong used to not eat a lot, especially in the morning, but Ten knew that he could not say no if Ten pushed a few more times. Once they had their fill, Ten looped his arm around his boyfriend's as they made their way out into the city. The air was refreshing, but the sky was a rather vibrant blue. "How romantic!" Ten announced. "Nong Nong, you said you wanted to explore. Where did you want to go?"
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Linong didn't really get why Ten was laughing, but just to be courteous, he also laughed softly alongside his boyfriend. Maybe his delivery wasn't as smooth as he expected, and Ten could see right through it. Deciding to try again, he opened his mouth wide to accept the egg tart, "Mm..." he considered, chewing thoughtfully, "This one is definitely not sweeter than you," he reached his conclusion as he swallowed, "But...it does taste pretty good," he stated matter-of-factly, leaning in and opening his mouth in a silent bid for another bite from Ten's fork.
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Ten had to laugh — head thrown back, coming from his stomach kind of laugh — at Linong's attempt to be sweet. It was a very good try, but since Ten only saw Linong as a baby, really, it was like the little kids that Ten taught dance announcing that they were going to marry Ten hyung. Linong was adorable. Wanting to hear more, Ten egged him on as he prepared a bite of egg tart over his fork for his student, "What about this one? Is this sweeter than me?"
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Linong wasn't quite a morning person, so his brain didn't immediately jump to having conversation with Ten, even if he did enjoy having his boyfriend's company. He ate the mushy porridge slowly, liking that he didn't have to do much chewing. While it wasn't the best thing he'd ever eaten, he liked the deep savory taste of the abalone in his porridge. Across from him, he could hear Ten's utensils clinking against the plates as he ate his breakfast. "Hm?" he asked, looking up when his name was called. Seeing the dripping forkful of pancakes waiting for him, he leaned in to eat it. "Thank you Laoshi," he hummed, chewing the sweet dough for a bit before chasing it with the hot tea. "It's pretty good," he praised, smiling at Ten's sweet gesture. "Like you," he added in Korean.
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ "Let's share," Ten said. Conveniently, there were already empty bowls and utensils set up at each table, so Ten scooped up a couple mouthfuls of Linong's porridge into one of those, taking only a little piece for himself. He ate his way around the table, having a bite of this and then a bite of that rather than eating one thing at a time. When Ten saw that Linong wasn't really trying the rest of their food, he took it upon himself to cut up a bite of pancakes smothered in maple syrup and hold it out for the younger. "Nong Nong," he said sternly, letting the tone of his voice convey what he wanted.
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Okay. Chicken. Which word was chicken? Linong scanned the name plaques again before he found the one that Ten was looking for. He made sure to fill up a full bowl for Ten before following his boyfriend back to their table. "Oh, thank you," Linong thanked Ten gently with a smile upon seeing the tea. It looked like a nice and hearty breakfast, so he sat down to dig into his porridge while it was still hot. "Mm, Laoshi you should eat more," Linong answered, not being one who liked to eat too much in the morning anyways. "The porridge is nice. Did you try yours? Want to try mine?"
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Linong was so cute — he went right for the expensive stuff. Holding Linong's hot bowl for him (so that Ten could warm his hands as well), Ten perused the options before him. "Hmm..." he mused as he considered all his options twice each. "I want the chicken one," he reiterated, standing by his first decision, pointing to the dome in case Linong couldn't figure out which one he was referring to. With their porridge retrieved, they carried each other's back to their table. "I got us tea," Ten said as they sat. His three plates of food was suddenly looking like a lot next to Linong's banana and bowl of porridge. Ten gestured to his food as he said, "Share with me. You need to eat more."
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Once Ten's needs had been addressed, Linong then ambled over towards the porridge section of the buffet line. He read through the options, trying to remember any cognates that would help him distinguish what each type of porridge was. Luckily, some bits of ingredients in each pot made some easier to recognize for him. Settling on what looked like fish and abalone porridge, Linong scooped up a big ladleful before Ten joined him. "Getting this one," he said, gesturing to the name with a finger. "Which one do you want Laoshi? I can help you get it."
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Linong picked a quiet spot. It was quiet and quaint, and Ten couldn't have found a better one himself. "Mm! Let me take these back. You get your porridge." Gripping his plate tightly in one hand, Ten too Linong's plate with the other. "Don't worry, I got it." Ten made his way to their chosen table without any trouble. Luckily, there were no screaming or running kids that would trip Ten on the way. Once their food was safely set down, Ten headed to the beverage table to pick up a drink for them: hot teas for the both of them, since it was so cool in Jeju at this time of the year. Leaving their food and drinks to stake their claim on their table, Ten found Linong by the porridge table. "Wow, there's a lot of options," he said as he came up to the younger from the side. "Hm... I want the chicken one. Nong Nong, can you get that for me?"
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Not picking up on the jest behind Ten's voice, Linong nodded earnestly, "En!" He followed Ten around, his fingers ready to grab at any tongs that Ten wanted food from. "Egg tart?" Linong replied, picking up the prettiest one that he saw. He made sure the crust around the edge was even all the way through and the surface of the egg filling inside was perfectly smooth. "Oh, hm..." he considered, looking at the other options for himself, "Porridge sounds good. I think I saw some abalone porridge on the other side of the buffet line," Linong said, gesturing for Ten to take a seat first. Linong could always get his own food later. When they reached the end of the buffet line, Linong gestured at a table against the other side of the wall in the dining area. "How about we sit over there Laoshi?"
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ "You will, Nong Nong?" Ten gasped quietly, as though he had expected anything else other than Linong carrying things for him. They walked around a bit more, eventually making their way to the table with more familiar foods. There was Chinese-style porridge, and Ten even spotted a station where fresh Thai-style omelettes were being fried up. "I want an egg tart," Ten decided, figuring he'd be back for the omelette after his first round of food. "What about you? You're not going to just eat that banana, right?" After all, bananas tasted disgusting and held no nutritional value. No wonder Linong was so skinny. Ten picked up a dough fritter for him and put it on his plate. "Want porridge?"
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Honestly, Linong had been considering a nice bowl of porridge for breakfast since it was warm and hearty. Besides, he always preferred savory foods anyways. However, seeing Ten booking it towards the sweet breakfast items, Linong didn't hesitate to follow behind him. He took his time before choosing anything, scanning each option he had. It was no surprise when Ten walked right past the fruits laid out on the buffet table. His boyfriend had always had a distaste for fruit, though Linong could never really understand the reason why. He didn't question it though, but just picked up a small banana for himself. He perked up when he heard Ten's distress signal, arms moving reflexively to offer up his empty plate, "What do you want more of Laoshi? I'll help you put it on my plate."
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ The buffet line was enormous, and looked much more palatable than the menu Boa had bragged about choosing for dinner last night. Ten led the way right to the Western-style table, joining the pancake line. He picked up two plates and handed one to Linong, and after they received their waffles, they were given a plethora of add-ons to pile over their pancakes. Ten wrinkled his nose at the bowls of fruits, skipping right over them in favour of adding bricks of butter and pools of syrup (with a sprinkling of chocolate chips). There was also a long pasty table that held baked goods from all over the world — Ten was a big fan of this. He picked up a chocolate croissant to add to his plate. "Oh, what do I do?" Ten exclaimed in Korean when he realized his small plate was already full from a few measly pieces of food. "I don't have any more space." It was not a real issue, of course, but he liked the way Linong would scramble for a solution whenever Ten happened upon a minor inconvenience.
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ They had not even discussed their outfits, but they ended up matching anyways. They had quite the chemistry, if Linong could say so himself. "Yes we are," he answered, smiling when he and Ten could communicate so moothly in this moment. He wrapped his arms around his smaller boyfriend, nodding his head, "Yeah, let's go. I hope there's still some options left for us." he chuckled. They made their way downstairs without fear of being caught, their shoulders pressing right against each other. In the breakfast hall, Linong saw soup chafers with different types of soups and porridges for choosing. On the other end, Westernized options like toast and fruits were still laid out. "What do you want Laoshi?" Linong asked, deciding to follow Ten's lead.
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ The hot water of the shower softened the dried release between his legs and sitting just at the entrance of his hole. Once Ten was properly cleaned, he dressed, washed up, and joined Linong back in their room. Dressed casually, Linong was a handsome boy. Ten all but bounded up to the younger, his arms thrown around Linong's neck and his lips pressing to Linong's for a chaste kiss. "We're matching," he noted, referring to Linong's white top and black bottoms, to his own black top and white trousers. Giggling, Ten pressed a harder kiss against Linong's cheek. Linong was irresistibly adorable, even if he was just standing there doing nothing. "Ready for breakfast?"
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Linong wished that he could pause time so that he could lay in bed with Ten like this for just a little bit longer. Alas, they had to get up and prepare for their day out (which didn't go to say that Linong wasn't excited for that). Ten's quick kiss left a lingering sensation that made Linong want to chase for more, but the smaller male was out of bed and behind the bathroom doors before his still-drowsy self could react properly. Sitting on the edge of the bed, Linong stretched his long limbs out, listening the soothing sound of the water running in the shower. He longed to join Ten in there, but they had never actually talked about the boundaries of showering together, so he didn't wish to intrude. While he waited, Linong picked out his change of clothes that he prepared in his little duffel and looked around to see if Ten would have anything matching to wear with him.
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ "No. you didn't," Ten reassured the younger with a sleepy mumble. "I don't think you snore." At least, if Linong did, Ten was never roused by it. Finally fully opening his eyes, Ten's gaze met Linong's, and a tiny smile appeared on his lips. If they waited any longer, the hotel's breakfast buffet would close, so Ten took the lead in sitting up first. "I'm going to take a shower first," he said, wincing at the crusty feeling of Linong's dried release between his legs. "I'll be quick." Pressing a fleeting kiss over Linong's neck, Ten slipped out of bed, practically running into the shower to avoid staying out in the cool air any longer.
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ "Did I snore?" Linong asked immediately, knowing that he sometimes did that when he was too exhausted from the day before. He didn't want to disturb his boyfriend. On multiple occasions, Linong had even suggested that Ten wear some of the disposable ear pugs that Linong brought with him just to be sure that he could sleep well. Every time, his boyfriend refused his offer. Ten's affectionate gestures (and the lack of black circles under his eyes) assured Linong that he had not been disruptive in his sleep. "It's okay," he murmured, shifting in bed to admire Ten's small, pale face, "We can eat breakfast together, Laoshi."
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ The outside world was too chilly, and Linong's arms were warm and inviting. Ten snuggled as close as he could, his answer softly. Despite their plans to explore the city, Ten didn't want to leave the safety and comfort of their hotel bed. "You slept well for sure," Ten commented. Linong tended to fall into a deep slumber after a night of intimacy. Ten's arms tightened around Linong's waist, and he kissed Linong's jaw with a sleep grin. "I missed breakfast with the others."
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ Linong had been so tuckered out that he didn't budge even when Ten's gentle alarm clock went off. The only thing that he did was turn to throw his arm around Ten again, not liking to have an empty pocket of space between them. Linong wrinkled his noise when he felt something tickling his face. He slowly blinked his eyes open to the sight of Ten's face right in front of him. It brought a smile to his face, though he was still obviously drowsy. "Morning," he rasped in his croaky voice, hugging Ten close to protect the smaller male from the supposed cool weather outside, "Did you sleep well?"
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ The next morning, Ten woke late. He thought he was early, really, but when he checked the time on his phone, he realized he was already an hour late to breakfast with his coworkers. Letting his phone fall amongst the sheets with a huff, he closed his eyes for a bit longer before turning to snuggle against Linong. His boyfriend was still in his sleep, having slept through Ten's alarm as well. Although Linong acted like he was so grown when they were intimate, Ten didn't think he was ever going to see Linong as anything other than an innocent child. Brushing Linong's hair out of his eyes, Ten stayed still and quiet otherwise, opting to let his hardworking boyfriend rest a little longer.
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ "En, I'm very satisfied, Laoshi," Linong answered obediently, just as if he were in Ten's class again. While they lied in bed curled up against each other, time seemed to freeze in the moment. He was content to be resting with Ten, regardless of what others said of him outside of their small world together. He was sure that Ten felt the same way too. Linong could hear the TV still playing in the background, but he didn't have any interest in turning around to see what was going on. His eyelids fluttered shut and he pressed his lips to Ten's forehead, kissing his boyfriend sweetly once more. "Let's get some rest, baobei. We have lots of things to explore tomorrow."
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ As much as Ten liked the way Linong did him like that, he was glad when the younger stopped. Ten tensed up when he felt Linong's release fill him up, thick and hot. He could feel the way Linong's twitched inside him, and even though the movements were minuscule, it still managed to rub up against Ten's sensitive spot. He let Linong distract him, their kiss slow and languid after an evening of such rushed and passionate . Pulling Linong back down so that he could rest on the bed as well, Ten let his slide out of him and snuggled close to the younger. "Are you happy?" he asked in Mandarin, the tip of his nose touching the base of Linong's neck. His boyfriend smelled sweet despite his scent mingling with the musky smell of his sweat. "Satisfied?"
@✵ ten lee ᵈᵃⁿᶜᵉ ᶜᵒᵃᶜʰ There were many difficult choices to make in life. Linong had learned that being with his boyfriend often presented one of his biggest dilemmas: where was he going to ? The way Ten had offered for Linong to on his face was so appealing. Who wouldn't like to see their darling drenched in their release? That would be a stunning sight, surely. Linong hesitated though, since he knew his boyfriend had just showered. He would rather them spend their time cuddling after cleaning up rather than going through an entire shower and skincare routine afterwards. He continued to , smearing Ten's release between both of their stomachs that were rubbing against each other as he made his final decision, "Inside you, baobei." A few quick and shallow s later, Linong jammed himself deep inside of Ten's tight hole, his release spurting deep inside. He rode out his with a few more , leaning in to kiss Ten's plump lips once more.
@✵ chen linong ᵗʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ "Eo, yeah, like that," Ten sighed, his leg wrapped firmly around Linong's waist as he was ed into. It didn't take much longer in this position for Ten to release, Linong's rubbing up against that one sweet spot each time. He released all over Linong's stomach, but for as long as the younger hadn't come yet, Ten refused to let up. He clenched himself a little tighter around Linong, his body trembling from the overstimulation. His boyfriend had been so patient the entire time — there was no way Ten was going to end his reward so soon. "Nong Nong, where do you want to finish?" he panted sweetly, his smile wanton. "Inside? On my face? I- Hng- I'll let you pick-"
