His dampened palm rubbed rapidly over the surface of his cock. Jae-min, sitting half-reclined with his shoulder blades against the chair back, tilted his head back. The back of his head rested on the backrest.
Closing his eyes and focusing on masturbation, Jae-min clicked his tongue at the feeling that he wouldn’t reach climax easily. Jae-min hadn’t masturbated in a long time. Usually he almost always had a girlfriend, so there was no need to satisfy his sexual desire alone.
Since it had been so long since he’d done it alone, the stimulation felt insufficient. It was too bothersome to search for something to use as material now. Jae-min searched through his mind for the scenes he’d found most arousing recently.
Then he suddenly recalled Hyun-woong’s appearance spurting milk and semen simultaneously. That was the moment. The moment he felt his lower abdomen clench tight.
“Keu…!”
Jae-min hastily removed his hand and brought a tissue to press against his cock. His cock—longer and larger than Hyun-woong’s to a grotesque degree but with a pretty pinkish color—gulped out semen.
Feeling the tissue getting wet with lukewarm temperature, Jae-min caught his breath.
“Seriously, you fucking crazy bastard…”
After finishing ejaculating and pulling out several more tissues to clean up the area, Jae-min stood up. Self-loathing churned and spread throughout his body. Jae-min unlocked the door and left the room. He went straight into the bathroom, took off his clothes, and first poured cold water over his head.
Past 10 PM, after washing his body with cold water for over 30 minutes, Jae-min came out to find his family had already finished preparing for bed. Returning to his room, Jae-min sat at his desk again.
After staring at the Word window with the presentation script displayed for about 10 seconds, Jae-min placed his hands on the keyboard with a determined expression. Then he moved his fingers rapidly.
“I need to wake up early tomorrow, so I’ll finish within an hour and sleep…”
Muttering to himself with parched lips, Jae-min focused and typed away. Once he finished this, there would be no more reason to talk to Hyun-woong on campus. Of course, since they were taking the same class, they’d keep running into each other until the semester ended, but at least they wouldn’t have to meet separately because of the team project.
‘After finishing the team project and the temporary part-time job, I’ll return to normal.’
Even reflecting on it himself, Lim Jae-min was not normal right now. He was crazy.
After the sudden breakup, he’d paid unnecessarily too much attention to Kang Hyun-woong out of vindictiveness and resentment. And the actions he took for revenge touched his desire for control, and the mental pleasure from controlling another person’s actions and giving them shame may have led to physical arousal.
‘Right, maybe it’s as natural as morning erections? Maybe it’s a mystery of the human body? Not because I like him or am sexually attracted to him!’
He kept denying what was happening to him in his head while working on the assignment, resulting in typos mixed in here and there. He’d pound away at the keyboard, hit backspace, then engage in angry typing again repeatedly.
“Right now I’m just temporarily crazy because I’m exhausted…”
With eyes bloodshot from fatigue, Jae-min muttered. Before he knew it, he was on the verge of completing the draft script. The end would come after writing the closing remarks. Jae-min typed in a daze.
[This has been Team 2’s Lim Jae-min, Kang Hyun-woong]
Jae-min stopped his hand abruptly. He just needed to write ‘Thank you’ to finish.
[Kang Hyun-woong]
As soon as he wrote Hyun-woong’s name, his stomach churned oddly. Jae-min stared blankly at the three syllables.
“I really am crazy.”
He muttered once more. Finally completing the last sentence after the name and saving it, Jae-min turned off the laptop without hesitation.
04.
Waking up early in the morning, Jae-min went to a café, turned on his laptop, and opened the presentation script. With the PowerPoint open beside it, he made final revisions to the script, then read through it roughly from beginning to end and finished preparing.
Gulping down a cold chocolate latte, Jae-min stood up. He stood in front of the café’s full-length mirror. Today he wore a neat shirt and slacks, and for once put effort into his hair.
Sweeping back even his bangs, unlike his usual appearance of looking like a beautiful boy, he exuded the atmosphere of a relaxed adult man.
He’d completed his sugar intake, and his outfit was perfect. Thinking he could finish the presentation successfully, a smile appeared on Jae-min’s lips.
Even if he wasn’t the type to do everything with fierce determination, he couldn’t feel satisfied unless he properly finished what he participated in. Plus, if he didn’t present properly, Hyun-woong would think him pathetic. That was the hardest thing to bear.
‘At first I thought about making him look bad, but I gave up on that a while ago.’
Shrugging his shoulders once, he opened the café door. He walked steadily toward the lecture hall.
After finishing today’s presentation, there would be no need to make separate appointments to meet with Hyun-woong. A determined look settled on Jae-min’s face.
“Hello. I’m Lim Jae-min from the Business Administration department, in charge of Team 2’s presentation.”
Jae-min began the presentation standing in front of the lecture hall podium. After bowing in greeting, Jae-min briefly looked around. There were quite a few people, but still far fewer than when standing on stage at a performance venue. The watching people wouldn’t make Jae-min nervous.
However, Hyun-woong staring intently at him from the very back seat was irritating.
It was spring with petals fluttering about, and summer was approaching. While most students wore colorful clothes embracing spring, only Hyun-woong still stuck to achromatic colors.
Even though he was sitting the farthest away, perhaps because of his large build, he stood out particularly. Even from this distance, he could feel their gazes meeting. Jae-min slowly shifted his gaze to the script.
The presentation went smoothly. Jae-min, accustomed to standing in front of people, continued speaking at a pace neither too fast nor too slow.
After finishing explaining the prepared content, he also took questions. Since it was a relatively simple assignment of summarizing and organizing someone else’s paper anyway, no difficult questions came.
“That concludes the presentation. This has been Team 2’s Lim Jae-min and Kang Hyun-woong. Thank you.”
As he bowed at the waist in greeting, applause sounded. Jae-min scanned several female students watching him with sparkling eyes and smiled with his eyes curved. Then they all blushed. Inwardly satisfied with the looks of admiration he was feeling after so long, Jae-min organized his materials.
The professor who had been watching the presentation also nodded with a pleased expression.
“Mm, very thoroughly well-prepared. Good.”
Jae-min collected the script he’d brought and walked to the very back. Before sitting in the chair, he glanced at Hyun-woong on the opposite side. Since they were teammates, it would be worth exchanging a look saying ‘good job,’ but Hyun-woong just looked straight ahead with an expressionless face. Tsk, clicking his tongue quietly, Jae-min sat down.
After that, class continued as usual. Having finished the team project, he felt relieved and his body became slightly languid. Jae-min listened to class while rubbing his sleepy eyes.
“Team 2?”
When class ended and people were stirring to get up, the professor called on Jae-min and Hyun-woong. The two people who had been packing their things stood up and walked to the very front.
“You did well today. Many people think lightly of liberal arts classes. I thought you’d be more careless since you’re such good-looking students, but that was my prejudice.”
The professor spoke jokingly and gave a thumbs up. Jae-min smiled awkwardly and glanced at Hyun-woong.
Hyun-woong just blinked with an indifferent face, but Jae-min thought he must feel wronged. Even if it applied to himself, Hyun-woong’s appearance was far from being a ‘pretty boy.’
“Student Lim Jae-min, you also have a good voice. You have a talent for making people focus.”
At the professor’s continued praise, Jae-min paused. He’d heard that his voice was good recently too. Jae-min, who deliberately blurred and mashed up a certain memory that was trying to rush into his head, bowed his head.
“Thank you.”
“You could even be a celebrity. Ah, just submit the report by tomorrow.”
The professor, who had smiled brightly, gestured as if to say they could go now.
“Good work.”
Jae-min and Hyun-woong bowed at the waist in greeting and moved their feet outside the lecture hall. Hyun-woong passed through the lecture hall door first, and Jae-min followed behind.
“Hey, good work. It’s finally over.”
“Yeah.”
“You feel relieved too, right?”
Rolling his shoulders that had grown stiff, Jae-min spoke to the back of Hyun-woong’s head. Hyun-woong, who hadn’t even greeted him first but answered shortly with one syllable and acted stiffly, paused and turned his head slightly.
“…It’s not over yet since it’s before submitting the report.”
“Didn’t you finish the report?”
“I just need to wrap it up. I was planning to do it at a café now.”
Hyun-woong gestured with his chin toward the backpack hanging on his back. Ahh, Jae-min was nodding roughly when he soon furrowed his brow and smirked.
“By the way, you got praised thanks to me, don’t you have anything to say?”
“What to say?”
