CHO EUNTAK didn’t want to know that Go Gunjoon was a bottom...

... but here we are now.

It wasn’t just awkward— he also felt bad.

Anyways, after Cho Euntak was introduced to Go Gunjoon by Park Sohee, his hyung left to let the two of them talk.

So, here we are now.

Cho Euntak and Go Gunjoon decided to have lunch in a traditional Korean restaurant that Park Sohee booked for them.

It was the fancy kind, the one with separate rooms for VIP guests like them.

The dishes on the table all looked delicious and expensive, too.

It’s mostly prime beef and seafood...

Park Sohee was really thoughtful like that.

"Gunjoon-ah, I’m sorry," Cho Euntak said guiltily. It was something that he wanted to say from the beginning. "Because you wanted to help me, you had to share your sex life with me..."

Go Gunjoon chuckled while shaking his head. "It’s alright, Hyung. I already got rid of shame when Sohee Hyung saw me."

"Saw you...?"

"Riding my partner."

Cho Euntak’s face turned red. "How did that even happen... no, I’m sorry. You don’t have to share that information with me. I’m sorry for asking."

"No, it’s alright, Hyung," Go Gunjoon said, pausing for a moment before speaking. "Actually, it’s not like Sohee Hyung caught me in the act. He just saw a sex video of me where I was riding my partner."

"Oh."

"My previous partner blackmailed me when I broke up with him. He threatened to spread our sex video if I didn’t get back together with him. Which was shocking because I didn’t know that he filmed me during our intimate moments."

Cho Euntak frowned, feeling bad for the kid. "That’s awful."

"I know, but that didn’t end there. That bastard stole my phone. He saw that I was frequently in touch with Sohee Hyung. He didn’t know that I had an older brother. Since Sohee Hyung is now a part of a chaebol family, I’m very careful about keeping my relationship with him private. You never know who might use me to take advantage of my hyung’s kindness."

What a good kid.

"Anyway, my ex thought I was cheating on him with Sohee Hyung. He saw how Sohee Hyung was so caring towards me, after all," Go Gunjoon continued. "So, that bastard sent our sex video to Sohee Hyung, thinking he did something."

Aigoo.

"Of course, Sohee Hyung got mad at my ex blackmailing me and spreading our sex video. That bastard blurred his face, but not mine."

Cho Euntak clenched his hands tight.

"Thankfully, he only sent the video to Sohee Hyung. My brother and brother-in-law took care of my ex."

Of course.

There’s no way Sohee Hyung and Heedo Sunbae-nim would let that slide.

"I actually don’t know what exactly Sohee Hyung and Brother-in-law did, but my ex suddenly dropped out and enlisted in the army. Plus, I heard that his family also moved to the countryside for some reason. Then his friends cut him off and denied their connection with him."

Yep, it sounded like something Kim Heedo would do.

Chaebols are really scary when you get on their bad side, you know?

"Are you okay now, Gunjoon-ah?" Cho Euntak asked worriedly. "That must have been an awful experience."

Go Gunjoon looked touched by his concern. "I’m fine now, Hyung," the kid assured him. "Thank you for worrying about me." He paused for a moment, and then chuckled. "We completely got sidetracked, Hyung."

"I know, right?" Cho Euntak agreed, smiling. "But thank you for sharing, Gunjoon-ah. I’m glad that your problem was resolved."

"Let’s solve your problem now, Hyung."

It was a welcome change of topic.

"Sohee Hyung has given me the gist of it," Go Gunjoon said, acting quite serious now. "It’s true that a male Alpha bottom and a male Beta bottom prepare similarly when it comes to sex. After all, we’re not women or male Omegas who can get wet, which helps them get penetrated more comfortably."

Cho Euntak felt embarrassed, but he didn’t show it.

Go Gunjoon was two years younger than him, so he should act mature and totally cool.

"But that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways for us to prepare," Go Gunjoon said. "Hyung, I’m sure you’ve done your own research already."

Cho Euntak’s cheek turned warmer, but he nodded. "Yes. Uh, lubricant is our friend."

"You did your homework, Hyung. I’m proud."

Pfft.

"Thankfully, there are special lubricants that Alphas who bottom use," Go Gunjoon said. "It’s similar to an Omega’s Slick, so it will help your partner penetrate you less painfully." The kid paused for a moment before he added, "Though it depends on your partner’s size. If he’s big, then it will still be painful."

Cho Euntak let out a sigh. "That’s the part that I’m afraid of."

"I knew it— Jeho Sunbae-nim is big."

He wasn’t surprised that Go Gunjoon knew that Cho Euntak’s future sex partner (and boyfriend) was none other than Baek Jeho.

Who in our friend group doesn’t know? I bet even the twins know.

The twins would be Kim Haewon and Kim Hanhae, of course.

They’re Heedo Sunbae-nim’s twin younger siblings.

"I would like to recommend using toys first, but you may not be comfortable with it," Go Gunjoon said. "There are people who want their partner to be their first in everything. But there are people like me who want to explore my body first." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Oh, so you used toys?"

"Yes, since I wanted to know what my body wants instead of relying on my partner. Hyung may have already noticed, but yes, I’m quite sexually active. As soon as I turned twenty years old, I explored and satisfied my curiosity about sex. I hope I don’t come across as promiscuous."

"No, of course not. It’s only natural for young people to engage sex if they want to. The important thing is practicing safe sex."

Go Gunjoon smiled as if he were relieved. "Thank you for not being judgmental, Hyung."

"I’m just being a decent human being," Cho Euntak said casually. "Anyway, I’m not comfortable with the idea of using sex toys on my own. I’d like to explore my body with Baek Jeho."

"Okay, understood. Then we should focus on finding the best lubricant for you, Hyung. Luckily, I know a store that specializes in that. But since their items are specifically made for Alphas who bottom, they’re pretty expensive."

"Oh, don’t worry about that." Cho Euntak proudly showed off the black card that Baek Jeho gave him. "I have this. We can spend to our heart’s content, with the owner’s permission."

Go Gunjoon chuckled. "I guess that’s part is covered, then. Now..."

"There’s more?"

"Hyung, even if you don’t want to use toys, you still have to learn how to prep on your own. Your sex partner won’t always be there for you to help."

"Ah, that makes sense."

"And, so..." Go Gunjoon suddenly pulled out a laptop from his bag. "I made a PPT presentation to teach you how to prep, and everything is based on my personal experience. Most posts you’ll find on the Internet are bullshit, so I’m sharing my knowledge that I’ve acquired through real experiences with you, Hyung."

And when Go Gunjoon opened his PPT presentation...

Pfft.

Cho Euntak couldn’t help but laugh. "Gunjoon-ah, you’re making me blush!"

"BAEK JEHO, what are you doing here?"

Aigoo.

The worst that could happen to a person browsing for weird-looking sex toys in an adult store happened to Baek Jeho— he met an acquaintance.

And the worst part?

It’s Jin Sangho— a loud classmate.

Baek Jeho wore a face mask, but he was still recognized.

I guess I can only do so much to hide my explosive visuals. Plus, my height. Only a few people are taller than me in campus.

"Are you here to buy sex toys for you and your partner?"

Argh.

Jin Sangho was an obnoxious Alpha, so it wasn’t a surprised that he started that shameless topic, even though they weren’t really close.

I guess I don’t have the right to talk about shame when I entered an adult store on my own.

"I’m only here for some lubricants and condoms," Baek Jeho said. And it was true anyway. Since he had seen Cho Euntak’s ’thing’ before, he could guess his size. Hence, he was confident he could choose the right size of condom for him. He was doing that because he knew Cho Euntak would be too shy to even order sex-related stuff online. "Only stores like this carry big sizes."

That was true.

And, yes, Baek Jeho could have just ordered online.

But what I need is not something that one could simply order online, so I have to come in person.

"Ah, you’re right," Jin Sangho said, grinning. "I’m a VIP client here."

"I see."

"Do you want my help?"

Baek Jeho was just about to decline Jin Sangho’s help, but he got distracted when the door opened, and two people entered the adult shop.

And one of them...

"Cho Euntak?"

Baek Jeho only realized that he had called Cho Euntak out loud when he looked at him.

When their eyes met...

"Baek Jeho?"

Yep, Baek Jeho couldn’t be wrong.

He recognized Cho Euntak, even though he was wearing a face mask, too.

It was always a delight to see Cho Euntak, but...

Who’s that?

Baek Jeho immediately walked towards Cho Euntak and gently grabbed his arm while pulling him close to him.

Then he shot Cho Euntak’s companion with a cold look.

The guy looked younger than them, but he was tall and handsome.

Good-looking enough to make Baek Jeho a bit jealous.

I can tell that the guy is a Beta, but who cares? Anyone can fall for Cho Euntak’s charms!

Hence, Baek Jeho got anxious.

"Baek Jeho, this is Go Gunjoon," Cho Euntak said, and then he whispered as if he didn’t want anyone else to hear: "He’s Sohee Hyung’s younger half-brother."

Ah, so that was why Cho Euntak was speaking softly.

The fact that Sohee Sunbae has a half-brother isn’t exactly public knowledge.

"Okay, nice to meet you," Baek Jeho said nonchalantly, and then he looked at Cho Euntak and Go Gunjoon back and forth. "But why are you here?"

"Sunbae, why else would we be here?" Go Gunjoon asked, smiling. "Of course, we’re here to buy sex toys."

Cho Euntak blushed, but he nodded shyly.

Baek Jeho was shocked, looking at Cho Euntak as if Cho Euntak had just betrayed him. "Why do you need sex toys when I’m here, Cho Euntak? You can use me however you want!"

"Have you lost your mind?!" Cho Euntak looked so scandalized, even covering Baek Jeho’s mouth with his hand. "Baek Jeho, you crazy bastard!"
